Do you want to go on an exciting adventure in a hot air balloon? The Aeronauts can offer you this immersive experience.
你想搭上熱氣球展開一段激動人心的冒險(xiǎn)嗎?電影《熱氣球飛行家》就能帶給你這樣的沉浸式體驗(yàn)。
The film, inspired by a true story, hit Chinese theaters on Nov 13. It stars Oscar nominee Felicity Jones and Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne. The pair plays hot air balloonist Amelia Wren and pioneering meteorologist James Glaisher, respectively. They soared 11,278 meters off the ground – over 2,000 meters higher than Mount Qomolangma – in a balloon in 1862.
這部改編自真實(shí)故事的電影于11月13日登陸國內(nèi)院線。電影由奧斯卡提名獲得者菲麗希緹·瓊斯與奧斯卡影帝埃迪·雷德梅恩主演。這對搭檔分別飾演熱氣球飛行員艾米莉亞·雷恩與具有開拓精神的氣象學(xué)家詹姆斯·格萊舍。他們于1862年乘坐熱氣球飛到了11278米的高空 —— 比珠穆朗瑪峰還要高2000多米。
“The film is visually stunning thanks to the computer-generated effects in the air and the artistry of [the] cinematographer ... and production designers ...” Rolling Stone commented. Much of the film was shot from a hot air balloon and a helicopter.
“高空中的電腦特效以及電影攝影師與美術(shù)指導(dǎo)的藝術(shù)造詣令這部電影的視覺效果震撼人心,”《滾石》雜志如此評論道。大部分的電影場景都在熱氣球與直升機(jī)上進(jìn)行拍攝。
What makes it more impressive is the adventurous spirit and enduring personalities of the main characters. Glaisher was motivated by his passion “for making a science out of weather predicting, thereby saving lives”, the Los Angeles Times noted.
更令人驚艷的是主角們的冒險(xiǎn)精神與堅(jiān)韌不拔的品質(zhì)。格萊舍追求著自己的理想 —— “建立一門關(guān)于氣象預(yù)報(bào)的學(xué)科,從而拯救生命”,《洛杉磯時報(bào)》指出。
As the balloon goes higher and higher, we, as movie viewers, enjoy splendid visuals and experience floating above the Earth in a tiny basket. But for Glaisher and Wren, they were bearing the cold, breathing hard for oxygen, and risking their lives.
隨著熱氣球越飛越高,身為觀眾的我們也享受著壯麗的風(fēng)景,體驗(yàn)著坐在一個小籃子里在漂浮于地球上空的經(jīng)歷。但對于格萊舍與雷恩而言,他們則忍受著嚴(yán)寒缺氧、冒著生命風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。
