2015.10.24. Ying閱讀筆記

"英美流行小說(2015秋季)"

在讀完幾本情節高速發展,強調肢體動作的

青少年小說之後(包括:移動迷宮,分歧者,

叛亂者...等),本周終於來到深入內心,探索

生命力量的The Fault in Our Stars!我的心臟

與肢體肌肉終於可以稍稍休息,但是,這下換

眼睛吃力了:常常熱淚盈眶!

不只是我,與我相差35歲的學生們,也是如此!

不是故事煽情,而是藉著絕望的慘境來悟出人

生必備的正面態度與坦然的智慧.還有愛...

這是超越生死的.或許,這是當今的羅密歐與

茱麗葉的改版故事,或許,"愛"與"學習智慧的

過程"永遠是人類生存的課題!我們來看一下

電影片段:

Movie trailer 電影預告片段

兩位罹患絕症的青少年,

在生命盡頭的深刻體驗,

包含對愛情,被遺忘,傷逝的認識,

還有對於"希望"的重新發現.

主角雖是青少年,心靈那追尋的勇氣

卻是各階段的人生都需要的!

下面這些佳句都隱藏著其背景與涵義.

如果能夠閱讀原著或觀看電影的全貌,

必定能更加領會其中的深意.

Quotes from The Fault in Our Stars

生命中的美好缺憾: 佳句

2015.10.24.

"Pain demands to be felt."

"You give me a forever in the numbered

days. I can't tell you how grateful I am."

"Oneday, all our efforts will be returned

to dust."

"The world is not a wish-granting machine."

"Don't ask everyone to remember you.

I love you. Is this not enough? "

"It's possible to live with pain."

"It's a priviledge to love."

Movie Theme song 電影主題曲:

“All of the Stars” by Ed Sheeran

        "All of the Stars" by Ed Sheeran

It's just another night
And I'm staring at the moon
I saw a shooting star
And thought of you
I sang a lullaby
By the waterside and knew
If you were here,
I'd sing to you
You're on the other side
As the skyline splits in two
I'm miles away from seeing you
I can see the stars
From America
I wonder, do you see them, too?

So open your eyes and see
The way our horizons meet
And all of the lights will lead
Into the night with me
And I know these scars will bleed
But both of our hearts believe
All of these stars will guide us home

I can hear your heart
On the radio beat
They're playing “Chasing Cars”
And I thought of us
Back to the time,
You were lying next to me
I looked across and fell in love
So I took your hand
Back through lamp lit streets I knew
Everything led back to you
So can you see the stars?
Over Amsterdam
You're the song my heart is
Beating to

So open your eyes and see
The way our horizons meet
And all of the lights will lead
Into the night with me
And I know these scars will bleed
But both of our hearts believe
All of these stars will guide us home

And, oh, I know
And oh, I know, oh
I can see the stars
From America
