下午好,欢迎收看动静头条,我是陈平萍。今天的节目里,来关注今年的奥斯卡,今年的角逐名单包括《好莱坞往事》、《爱尔兰人》、《小丑》、《乔乔兔》和《别告诉她》。《别告诉她》是唯一一部华裔电影,《纽约时报》报道这部电影是今年奥斯卡夺冠大热门。

Good afternoon and welcome to DongJing Headline with me Pingping Chen. In today’s programme, let's turn to this year’s Oscar race. The best-picture list includes “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” and “The Irishman” as well as “Joker”,“Jojo Rabbit” and “The Farewell.” And The Farewell is the only Chinese-American movie. New York Times reports the film is the favourite to win the Oscar this year.

《别告诉她》(The Farewell),讲述的是在中国家庭中,家人设法向他们心爱的奶奶隐瞒她患了晚期癌症的消息。在整个电影中,从小在美国长大的孙女比莉一直在挑战她的家庭,她同意保守这个秘密,但是内心是不认可的。这是一种文化差异,也是全片的看点。

The movie is about the members of a Chinese family who try to keep their grandma from learning about her cancer. Throughout the film, the granddaughter Billi repeatedly challenges her family. She agrees to keep the secret but, at heart, disagrees with the decision. This is a kind of culture differences. It is also the focus of the film. 

纽约时报评论说,这是一个谎言背后的中式亲情,加州理工大学的教授说,这是因为亚洲人倾向于间接沟通,东方哲学强调平衡与和谐,有时候,没说出口的比说出口的更重要。

The New York Times commented that this is a family lie behind the Chinese affection. Jeff Mio, a professor of multicultural psychology at California Polytechnic State University, said Asians tend to have indirect communication, Eastern philosophy emphasizes balance and harmony, what’s not said is more important than what's said.

这部电影去年在美国上映,收获了很多媒体的好评和观众的点赞。第九十二届奥斯卡获奖结果将于明年二月揭晓,让我们共同期待结果。
Anywany, the film was released in America last year and received a lot of positive reviews from the media and audiences. The 92nd Academy Awards will be announced in February. Let's look forward to it.

今天的节目就是这样,感谢观看,周末愉快,我们下次见。
That’s for now. Thank you for join me, have a nice weekend. See you next time.
