SYNOPSIS

剧情概要

After the poor harvests of 1940 and 1941, people in China's Henan Province has been forced to use up its reserves. At war with and partly occupied by Japan, China is already in trauma when a major drought causes the failure of the 1942 wheat crop - and what little is produced is taken by authorities - mostly to feed the army and its horses. Political journalist and war correspondent Theodore H. White (Adrien Brodey) reports on the resulting famine in Time magazine, alerting the world to an unimaginable tragedy in which millions starve to death.

在1940年和1941年连续歉收的情况下，中国河南省人民被迫吃尽了所有存粮。在抗日战争中被日本占领了部分领土并遭受重创后，中国由于一场重大旱灾在1942年绝收，仅剩的一点收成也被政府剥夺，用于供给军队和马匹。身为政治记者和战地记者的白修德（阿德里安·布劳迪饰演）在时代杂志上报道了由此造成的饥荒，警醒全世界关注这个造成了数百万人饥饿至死的难以想象的灾难。

How on Earth could a government, its army and bureaucrats turn their backs while three million citizens starved to death?

一个政府，以及它的军队和官员能在三百万民众饿死的时候冷眼旁观到什么程度？

That’s the disturbing question posed by Feng Xiaogang’s Back to 1942, a harrowing and poignant account of a shameful chapter in China’s history.

冯小刚在电影《一九四二》中提出了这个令人不安的问题，这部电影是对中国历史上一段耻辱时期惨痛而心酸的记述。

Lavishly budgeted at $35 million, the film chronicles the famine that devastated Henan province during the Sino-Japanese War and the political apathy and corruption that allowed this gross inhumanity to happen.

这部电影奢侈地准备了3500万美元的预算进行拍摄，以时间顺序记录了在抗日战争期间毁灭了河南省的饥荒，以及导致这一严重不人道行为发生的政府的冷漠和腐败。

The starting point is the winter of 1942 when millions of citizens are forced to flee as the Japanese threaten to attack, embarking on a perilous and arduous journey that ends in the spring of 1944.

影片开始于1942年的冬天，数百万民众在日本攻占的威胁下被迫逃荒，踏上了一条充满艰难险阻的道路，直到1944年的春天才结束。

The central protagonist is Fan (Zhang Guoli), a wealthy landowner in the walled village of Yanjin in central China. As the famine worsens, hungry farmers threaten to attack Fan, who calls in the guards, setting up the first big action sequence: a bitter fight in which many are killed and the village is torched.

电影的主人公老东家范殿元（张国立饰演）是华中地区一个围村中的富有的地主。当饥荒越来越严重，饥饿的农民们威胁要攻击范殿元。范殿元叫来了守卫，第一次采取了大规模的行动。很多人丧生于这场苦战，村庄也被烧毁了。

Fan, his extended family, loyal servant Shuang Zhu (Zhang Mo) and his tenant Hua Zhi (Xu Fan) set off with other refugees on the long march towards the province of Shaanxi.

范殿一家人、忠实的仆人栓柱（张默饰演）、佃户花枝（徐帆饰演）和其他难民一起出发，踏上了前往陕西省的漫长路途。

In the first half hour or so the haughty, selfish Fan evokes little or no sympathy: in the opening scene he attempts to rape Hua Zhi. But gradually the man’s humanity surfaces and he realises he’s no better than the lower orders.

在影片的大约前半个小时中，高傲、自私的范殿元基本没有什么怜悯之心：影片的开头他还企图强奸花枝。但渐渐的他的人性开始浮现，他意识到自己的处境并不优于那些下层社会的人们。

“Dead is good. No more suffering,” he reflects after the death of yet another family member. Each stage of the journey is signposted, e.g. 'Day 57, 110 miles from home.'

“死了就好了，不用再受苦了。”他在家人一个又一个的死去后想道。逃荒路上的每个阶段都被标注出来，比如，“第57天，离家乡110英里。”

The arch-villain is Chiang Kai-shek (Chen Daoming), the leader of the Kuomintang party which governed China and turned a blind eye to the plight of the Henan people while he diverted resources to the battle against the Japanese. It’s a blood curdling portrayal of a ruthless and manipulative tyrant.

主要的反面角色是蒋介石（陈道明饰演），当时统治中国的国民党的领导人。他对河南人民的困境视而不见，只顾将资源转移到抗日战场上。这勾勒出了一个残酷而专制的暴君充满血腥味的形象。

One of the few honourable men in the ruling class is the Henan governor Li Peiji (Li Xuejian), a dignified, well-meaning man who is powerless to help his people.

河南省长李培基（李雪健饰演）是统治阶级中极少数正直的人之一，他高贵、善良，但却无力帮助他的人民。

Brody bobs up occasionally as Theodore White, the Time magazine journalist who broke the story of the Henan humanitarian crisis. White gains an audience with Generalissimo Chiang, who initially dismisses the devastating famine as “impossible,” then claims reports of the scale of casualties are exaggerated.

布劳迪客串出演白修德——时代杂志的记者，他报道了发生在河南的人道主义危机事件。白修德受到了总司令蒋介石的接见。起初蒋介石认定这毁灭性的饥荒是不可能发生的，后来又宣称对于死亡人数的报道过于夸张。

Small acts of kindness punctuate the story of hunger, loss, war and death. And faith is tested: Father Megan has futile answers to the desperate questions: if the Lord knows this is happening, why does he do nothing? If it's the devil's will, why does the devil always win - and why believe? Good questions, but no satisfactory answers. 

细小的善举突出了这个充满饥饿、失去、战争和死亡的故事，信仰也受到了质疑。梅金神父对于这个绝望的问题没有好的答案：如果上帝知道正在发生的一切，为什么他无动于衷？如果这是恶魔的意愿，为什么恶魔总是能成功？人们又因何而怀有信仰？这些问题很好，但没有令人满意的答案。

Zhang Mo is superb as Fan’s servant, a feisty, proud and excitable man who becomes a pitiable figure.

张默作为范殿元的仆人非常尽责，他是个精力充沛、充满骄傲而容易激动的人，也是个值得怜悯的人物形象。

Another sequence in which Japanese planes bomb the city of Chongqing is similarly impressive.

另外，日本战斗机轰炸重庆市的一系列场景同样令人印象深刻。

The wide-screen cinematography by Lu Yue is bathed in greys and browns, which match the bleak mood, but it’s hard to discern the characters in some night scenes.

Refreshingly, the score by Zhao Jiping is restrained and subtle; the startling images do not need thunderous orchestrals or any other embellishment.

卢月设计的宽屏电影艺术效果沉浸在灰暗色的基调中，和电影表现的黯低沉绪相协调。不过有些黑夜场景中难以区分各个人物。令人耳目一新的是，赵季平的配乐有所限制而又微妙；震撼的画面不需要雷鸣般的管弦交响和其他任何修饰。
