這個暑期檔，一部有史以來篇幅最長（168分鐘）的國產(chǎn)動畫電影熱映，它以特殊的方式打開了唐朝那個瑰麗而浪漫的朝代，也喚起觀眾對語文課本里那一首首必背唐詩的記憶——這就是由追光動畫出品的動畫電影《長安三萬里》，該片于7月8日正式公映，上映14天，截至7月21日晚，累計票房達(dá)9.5億（貓眼專業(yè)版）。目前該片豆瓣評分高達(dá)8.2分。Named after the ancient city of Xi’an in Shaanxi province, which served as the capital of the Tang Dynasty for over 280 years, the film epic spans 168 minutes — the longest runtime of any Chinese animated movie — and brings to life some of the most iconic figures in Chinese literary history. Since its release on July 8, the movie has garnered a rating of 8.2 out of ten on Douban, one of the country’s largest review aggregators, solidifying its position as one of the most acclaimed animated blockbusters of the summer season.長安（圖源：《長安三萬里》劇照）
影片基于李白、高適跨越數(shù)十載的友誼，勾勒出唐代詩人各自跌宕卻總在追隨自己認(rèn)定方向的人生軌跡。同時，再現(xiàn)了壯美的盛唐風(fēng)貌和唐詩文化。詩人們的一生正交錯著大唐帝國由盛轉(zhuǎn)衰的歷程。Chang'an chronicles the decades-long friendship of Li Bai, arguably the country's most beloved poet, and Gao Shi, his close friend and a renowned poet in his own right, amid the dynasty's transition from peak prosperity to the turmoil caused by the rebellion led by An Lushan, once one of Emperor Xuanzong's most favored generals.除李白、高適二人外，這部電影還刻畫了唐朝其他著名的詩人和藝術(shù)家。包括擅寫軍旅詩的王昌齡、草書大家張旭、“唐代樂圣”李龜年以及在文人圈中頗有影響力的皇親國戚，如玉真公主。Aside from Li and Gao, the movie features some of the most famous poets and artists of the era, including Wang Changling, known for military-themed poems, calligrapher Zhang Xu, and palace musician Li Guinian, as well as royal members who held significant influence within the literati circle, such as Princess Yuzhen.李白（圖源：《長安三萬里》劇照）
影片將這些歷史人物的命運(yùn)串聯(lián)交織，生動還原出唐朝的繁榮盛世。此外，片中還展現(xiàn)了長安城的熙熙攘攘、揚(yáng)州的繁花似錦，以及漠北塞外的風(fēng)雪苦寒。
Interweaving the personal fates of these figures, the film vividly reenacts the magnificent scenes of the Tang Dynasty. It showcases the bustling streets of ancient Chang’an, the vibrant and prosperous city of Yangzhou, as well as the harsh and snowy borderlands in northwestern China.
同時，電影精準(zhǔn)地捕捉到了唐朝自由奔放的本質(zhì)。例如，殿試狀元一舉奪魁后，會騎著駿馬，在長安里的宅子里摘下最為芬芳之花。
The movie also beautifully captures the free-spirited nature of the Tang Dynasty. For instance, in the national civil service examination, the highest achievers are granted the privilege to ride magnificent horses and pluck the most exquisite flower from any residence in the capital city.
詩人們則經(jīng)常造訪當(dāng)?shù)氐木起^，尋歡作樂，在異域舞女迷人舞姿和悠揚(yáng)歌聲的陪伴里尋求一瞬泉涌的靈感。
Additionally, poets would visit local taverns for moments of inspiration, where they would revel in the company of foreign dancers, enjoying their captivating movements and melodious singing, while enjoying wine and crafting verses of poetry.

《長安三萬里》的片名來自明代陳子龍《從軍行》中的“夢到長安三萬里，海風(fēng)吹斷磧西頭”。這個片名也點(diǎn)出了影片主題：“長安”代表高適、李白等人心中的“理想之地”，而“三萬里”是他們與理想之間的距離。影片中，高適對李白說：“你是謫仙人，要回天上。我是世間人，我在世間盤桓?！?/span>
片中一共出現(xiàn)了48首經(jīng)典的唐詩佳句，其中包括“床前明月光，疑是地上霜”“黃河之水天上來，奔流到海不復(fù)回”“莫愁前路無知己，天下誰人不識君”等耳熟能詳?shù)脑娋洹?/span>The film integrates an epic depiction of the dynasty's evolution and the poets' individual journeys with elements of profound Chinese traditional culture, enriching the narrative with 48 beautiful ancient poems.為了精準(zhǔn)傳遞唐詩的韻味和美感，《長安三萬里》邀請了澳大利亞暢銷書作家、評論家賈佩琳（Linda Jaivin）翻譯影片臺詞。賈佩琳深耕中英文化領(lǐng)域四十余年，曾為《霸王別姬》《梅蘭芳》《英雄》《東邪西毒》《悲情城市》等中文影片完成英文字幕翻譯工作。
In order to accurately convey the glamour of Tang poetry and better translate the cultural context embedded in the dialogue, the production team invited Linda Jaivin, an Australian sinologist, to assist with the translation process. Linda Jaivin has been deeply engaged in Chinese and English culture for more than 40 years and has translated many famous Chinese films, such as Farewell My Concubine, Forever Enthralled, Hero, Ashes of Time, and A City of Sadness.
制片人宋依依表示，雋永優(yōu)美的詩句與富有深意的地名是此片翻譯的難點(diǎn)，需要深思熟慮，精益求精。
“Jaivin's translation work began in the first half of last year. Despite her already extensive knowledge of Chinese culture, she found some poetry lines and place names to be quite challenging, requiring careful consideration and repeated contemplation,” says Song Yiyi, the movie’s producer.
讓我們來欣賞下影片中李白《將進(jìn)酒》的精彩翻譯吧：
Can you see the Yellow River decanting from the skyAnd racing to the sea never to return?Can you see the grief of white hair in the mirrorsAs dawn's black silk turns to evening snow?When life goes well, be joyousNever show the moon an empty cupHeaven gave me the talent for a reasonSpend now, riches return in seasonStew the lamb, prepare the ox, let us feastTonight we'll drink three hundred cups at leastMaster Cen, Master DanqiuDrink and don't put down your cupsBells and jades are not so preciousAncient sages leave no nameIt’s great drinkers who enjoy great fameAt the table of Prince Chen of oldHosts shouldn't fret over costs— Buy more wine and fill those cupsFine horses, expensive robes— Tell the servant to sell these for wineWe’ll banish sorrow from this world
