圣诞发明家影评:查尔斯·狄更斯(短评,The Man Who Invented Christmas)
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,
it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,
it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,
it was the season of Light,it was the season of Darkness,
it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair,
we had everything before us, we had nothing before us,
we were all going direct to Heaven,
we were all going direct the other way.
这是一个最好的时代,这是一个最坏的时代;
这是一个智慧的年代,这是一个愚蠢的年代;
这是一个光明的季节,这是一个黑暗的季节;
这是希望之春,这是失望之冬;
人们面前应有尽有,人们面前一无所有;
人们正踏上天堂之路,人们正走向地狱之门。
——《双城记》

最后的最后,同样以狄更斯的一段话结束这篇短评。
A Christmas Carol rethinks the relation among people, convincing readers that human beings should be kind to each other.Being kind to other people will bring people’s kindness back to you.Happiness does not lie in what you have gained but what you have dedicated.Maybe that’s the spirit of Christmas.
