第一篇：观影思考——《安娜与国王》(从人文地理学角度分析)大全

观影思考

电影《安娜与国王 》讲述的是一位早年丧夫的英籍女教师安娜与泰国国王之间著名的爱情故事。19世纪60年代，安娜带着儿子来到泰国，成为该国多妻多子的国王的家庭教师，负责教育孟卡国王的五十八名子女。起初，由于迥异的风俗文化，安娜遭遇了许多看似难以克服的困难，国王对她也近似“野蛮人”。随着两人的深入交往，尽管仍有许多不和谐存在，但他们逐渐赢得了互相的尊重，并碰撞出爱情的火花。该电影大部分在泰国拍摄，影片涉及到的泰国人文地理现象主要有：

民俗风情：

泰国是一个很具民俗礼仪风范的国家。人民爱和平，重礼仪，是一个礼仪之邦。泰国人举止文雅，彬彬有礼，青年人温顺恭谦，老年人和蔼可亲，妇女端庄持重。他们遇到任何人，都会含笑，并举手合什，向对方问候“萨瓦迪卡”（泰语“你好”）。从别人面前走过时，都会躬着身子，以示歉意。在坐着与人谈话时，总是双腿并拢，两手放在膝盖上，倾听对方的讲话。在进入或离开会场时，都先向主席台鞠躬行礼，表示对会议主持人的尊敬。

礼仪概述：

泰国的仪式繁多，礼节也很复杂。泰族是泰国的主要民族，因此泰族的礼仪基本上也是泰国人的礼仪。泰国人见面时要各自在胸前合十相互致意，其法是双掌连合，放在胸额之间，这是见面礼，相当于西方的握手，双掌举得越高，表示尊敬程度越深。平民百姓见国王双手要

举过头顶，小辈见长辈要双手举至前额，平辈相见举到鼻子以下。长辈对小辈还礼举到胸前，手部不应高过前胸。地位较低或年纪较轻者应先合十致意。别人向你合什，你必须还礼，否则就是失礼。双方合什致礼后就不必再握手，男女之间见面时不握手，俗人不能与僧侣握手。与别人谈话时不得戴墨镜，手势要适度，不许用手指着对方说话。从别人面前走过时（不管别人是坐着或站着），不能昂首挺胸，大摇大摆，必须躬着身子，表示不得已而为之的歉意。妇女从他人面前走过时，更应如此。学生从老师面前走过时，必须合什躬身。泰国是个王国，泰国人民对王室很尊敬，凡遇盛大集会、宴会，乃至影剧院开始演出之前，都要先演奏或播放赞颂国王的“颂圣歌”，这里全场肃立，不得走动和说话，路上行人须就地站立，军人、警察还要立正行军礼，否则就会被认为对国王不敬。

衣着服饰：

大多数的业务往来中，男性可以穿长裤和衬衣，领带可系可不系。在晚会上可穿深色西服，也可以穿泰国传统的无领丝绸衬衫，这种装束也都适合于正式场合。在正式庆典上可穿白色茄克服和黑色长裤，打黑领带。在大多数的社交活动中，女性得穿保守的服装或裙子加罩衫，有些地方不准妇女穿短裤上街。去参加婚礼不要穿白色服装，因为白色是新娘的专用色。不要穿紫色和黑色的服装，紫色只有戴孝的寡妇才穿，而黑色意味着悲哀，只在葬礼上穿。如果去参加葬礼，女人应穿一套黑色有袖的服装，男人应穿一套深色西服，着白衬衫，打黑领带，并在外衣的袖子上佩带黑纱。

第二篇：《安娜与国王》观后感

《安娜与国王》观后感

这个学期我选了跨文化交流这门有意思的选修课，其中令我印象最深刻的就是看了一部由周润发和朱迪·福斯特主演的好莱坞电影《安娜与国王》，电影播放的时间虽然很长，但是却给我留下了许多遐思，明白了各国之间文化的差异性。

电影中英国妇女安娜应邀前往暹罗王宫中做家庭教师。由于东西方文化及各自性格上的差异，她与国王的子女乃至国王本人时有冲突，甚至差点被赶走。但是随着了解的加深，尤其是在一次粉碎敌对分子政变阴谋的过程中，安娜临危不惧和国王对自己国家的忠诚都给对方留下了深刻的印象，国王认识到，女人是可以同自己平起平坐的；而孩子们更是由衷地把她当成自己的良师益友。就在国王从心底喜爱她的时候，她却认为自己已经完成了来王宫授益解惑的任务，毅然回到了自己的祖国。四十年后，当年的得意门生已经继承了王位，像老国王一样对自己的国家竭尽忠诚，并带领人民向二十世纪进军做好准备。

电影中的许多情节反映了文化大师们的著名文化理论，将东西文化差异表现得淋漓尽致，是一部很值得观看的文艺片。通过这部影片，我对各国的文化差异有了更深一步的了解。

在觐见国王之前，安娜被带到首相官邸。首相称她为“先生”，她问翻译为什么称呼她为sir，翻译告诉她，因为暹罗国的女子在首相面前不能站立。得到国王召见后，在觐见国王的路上，首相告诫安娜：“觐见国王时，你和你的儿子要记住，前额触地，行跪拜礼。”安娜不卑不亢地说：“尽管我们已经逐渐熟悉了贵国的风俗，但是我们也有自己的礼节和习惯。我会用我国的礼节表示我的最高敬意。”这一情节充分体现了赫福斯特文化维度中权力距离，泰国是一个权力距离比较高的国家，国王拥有至高无上的皇权，任何人见到国王都必须下跪，更何况安娜是一个妇人。君为臣纲，夫为妻纲在泰国体现的更加明显。

影片中有一个情节体现了强皮拉斯的普遍主义和特殊主义。但暹罗国王子和安娜的儿子发生冲突时，安娜并没有因为王子的尊贵身份而偏袒他，也没有因为爱护自己的儿子而有所纵容，相反，安娜以应有的方式惩罚他们，这就是典型的西方的法律权威，不会因人而异，讲究什么情面，顾及什么情理。不搞什么特殊化。

传统东方人的隐私观念比较弱，愿意了解别人的酸甜苦辣，对方也愿意坦诚相告。但西方人则非常注重个人隐私，讲究个人空间，不愿意过多地提及个人隐私，更不愿意别人干涉。

安娜初次见到首相，就被问及她的私事。首相问她在曼谷有没有朋友，结婚没有，丈夫死了多久，怎么死的。她非常尴尬，但却不得不回答。实在没有退路，她请翻译转告，她来这里是做国王长子的教师的，请首相不要再问及她的个人私事。首相却出乎意料地用英语告诉她，初次见面问私事是暹罗国的风俗，是为了显示礼貌。着体现了强皮拉斯的关系散漫和关系特定理论。同时体现了赫福斯特文化中的长期导向和短期导向。暹罗国，大家总是很关心安娜的过去，而安娜觉得人应该向前看。

电影中安娜敢于追求真理，敢于维护自己和自己国家的文化尊严，敢于同世俗、权势斗争，以及国王能够亲民大度，对待新的思想能够吐故纳新，能够博采众志的形象都给我留下了深刻的记忆。同时安娜在离开暹罗国，即将回国前同国王跳舞时小王子的旁白更是精典，小王子说到“当时我还小，但父王拥着他最心

爱的女人的画面，我会记得很清楚。生活中美好的时刻往往只占一小部分，有时候它还没开始就已经结束了，然而它所带来的影响让人永世难忘。安娜就是一个例子。”

一百多年来，世界文化的交流和沟通，极大地促进了各种历史传统和文化之间的相互尊重和理解。这种文化沟通与交流，也正在不断破除传统和壁垒。

从这部电影中，观众不仅能够了解东方独特的文化传统和价值观，而且可以从一系列的东西方文化冲突中认识到文化歧视和偏见所造成的误解和伤害，也进一步认识到摒弃文化中心主义、消除文化歧视和偏见、培养自己的文化敏感性和对异文化的包容和跨文化交际能力的重要性。在跨文化交往日益频繁、国际化程度日益加深的今天，这部电影的意义尤为深远。

第三篇：国王的演讲观影记

和影片的片名一样，《国王的演讲》一开始给人的感觉是波澜不惊，和好莱坞大片的气质相去甚远，与去年奥斯卡最佳影片《拆弹部队》对现代战争背景下的人性思考也十分不同。但波澜不惊决不是清汤寡水，《国王的演讲》仿佛一出内敛而精致的戏剧，在低调中酝酿出深厚，在深厚中铺展出令人动容的力量。

影片的故事情节非常简单，取材于真实的历史事件。英国国王乔治六世从小患有严重的口吃，最后，在莱昂纳尔的治疗下，终于克服口齿，发表了振奋人心的演讲。这个简单朴实的故事之所以会产生那么大的戏剧张力，首先就是因为细小的事情发生在了重大的历史人物和历史事件身上。时值二战，作为一国之象征的国王，需要发表演讲来凝聚人心。在这样的背景下，口吃治疗就变得尤为重要，细小的事情变得兹事体大。

国王能否被治好口吃，成为整部影片最大的戏剧张力，一直到最后，在莱昂纳尔的“指挥”下，乔治六世终于完整进行了战前演讲，观众才会舒一口气。影片的张力还来自于国王和治疗师本身，这是两个身份差距很大的人，一个是国王，一个只是普通的治疗师，国王的性格不仅内向，还容易愤怒，总有居高临下的气势。这种因为身份差异带来的个性碰撞也

成为影片的亮点。治疗师莱昂纳尔的角色在这个碰撞过程中显得尤为出彩，他并没有因为治疗对象是国王而卑躬屈膝，他要求国王打破常规，到自己简陋的治疗室来接受治疗，一副“我的地盘听我的”的架势，他用自己不卑不亢的耐心和诚恳，最终打开了国王坚固的心扉，找到了国王幼年的心理阴影。他甚至故意激怒国王，让国王流利地说出骂人的话。而正是这种不卑不亢的真诚交流，让莱昂纳尔获得了尊重，国王也把他当成了一生的好友。

与此同时，影片对国王的描述，也是用的一种平视的镜头，国王虽然有着崇高的地位，但同时有着普通人的缺点，影片把乔治六世饱受口吃之苦的情状展现得淋漓尽致。在别人以为当众说话是一件很容易的事情，在乔治六世那里，却是一件艰难无比的事情。在这个意义上，《国王的演讲》也是一部励志片，而且因为是国王克服内心困境的努力，励志的力量就显得更大。当国王在麦克风前憋得满脸通红，痛苦万分，但终于完整做完演讲，影片的励志力量也让人生出了绵长的感动。

网上有人建议陈凯歌导演看看这部影片，这个建议真是恰当得很。一拍国王，我们总是忍不住宏大叙事，但《国王的演讲》却在一个普通和细微的故事中，拍出了深厚、浩渺的意味，奥斯卡的评委们肯定明白，感动人心的力量不一定个来自于宏大的命题，国王的口吃，同样能让人思索良多。

第四篇：安娜与国王 英文影评

Intercultural communication and conflicts

——the comments on Anna and the king Adapted by a novel and filmed in 1999, “Anna and the king” tells a story of an English widow going to Thailand with her son and teaching King’s sons English, based on the background in the middle of the 19th century.Except for love and war, this movie reflects intercultural communication and conflicts as a manifestation of culture shock in terms of human rights, concept of privacy and time.As for human rights, western people possess the value of equality;while eastern rank people by their gender and social state.When Anna met the prime minister of Thailand for the first time, she was called “sir” for standing in front of him, which violated Siam’s provision that girls must go down on their knees when meeting the primer.Although she had been advised to touch forehead to floor and bow down to the king, she insisted on greeting by protocol of her own custom, in most respectful way.When Anna saw a slave be chained outside, both physically and mentally painful, she decided to request king to release her.In her opinion, each human being has the right to enjoy full freedom, and slavery should never exist in a modern nation.King admired her humanism and courage and allowed her to stand when speaking to him.Princess Chulalongkorn also learned from his teacher and changed from being superior to respectful, self-righteous to a good listener, and selfish to indiscriminate love Ancient Siam’s polygamy, which is inhumane and deprives women of pursuing true love, also caused conflicts between Anna and king.When king’s new imperial concubine——Tatian was found cheating on king with her lover for being neglected by king, she was lashed in court and was going to be executed.Anna defended for her, which put king on a spot and lead to a tragic ending.Although Anna gets a strong point, it is not strong enough to confront with king’s dignity and feudal polygamy around the whole nation.Cultural conflicts in privacy are skillfully mentioned when Anna met primer for the first time.After primer asked a series of personal questions before getting straight to the point, Anna stressed that her purpose there was to tutor king’s son, and personal questions are unnecessary.In Siam, asking personal questions first is a gesture to be polite and friendly.However, westerners pursue inpidualism and value the importance of privacy, which is greatly different from collectivism advocated by most easterners.The difference in concept of time is another culture shock in this movie.After Anna came to Siam, she wasn’t called in until the third week, and her request for living outside palace wasn’t worked out immediately.Prime minister explained that everything has its own time in Siam and it will resolve itself in time.However, in Anna’s mind, it is a matter of principle whether one can keep his or her promise, not time.Not only does Anna bring new ideas to Siam, but the culture there has also changed her way of thinking.In the beginning of the movie, when Louis, Anna’s son, asked her why the king needed her when no one in Siam spoke any English, she answered, the ways the England, the ways the world.However, this sense of superiority faded gradually as she found England, the so called country of modernization and civilization, secretly planned to provoke a war between Siam and Burma for the sake of its own self-interest.As English, she chose to stand on the side of justice, not power.This movie sets a good example for intercultural exchange, where different values can conflict with each other, learn from each other, and finally reform to be a better one.

Title: Analysis on the Dialogue in the King‟s Speech from the perspective of politeness principle Abstract: The nature of language is to communicate.Communication is a bridge ,through which people can transfer and get the information they need.The movie‟s dialogue is also the way to communicate.It is an important way to describe the characters‟ inner feelings ,activities and their characteristics.The film tries to inflect its communication purpose by the dialogues.In this paper, I will use Leech‟s Politeness Principle and Brown‟s Face Theory to analyze the dialogue in The King‟s Speech,and make a deep analysis on its characters so as to let readers have better admirations on this movie.At the same time ,if we use our pragmatic knowledge ,we can understand the film‟s deep meaning and its art‟s feature.Key words: Politeness Principle;Non-public Politeness Dialogue;Discourse Analysis

1.Introduction

The film shows its communication aims through dialogue, which can not only the audience understand the development of plot also can deepen the understanding of author‟s intention.Hence, through analyzing the film‟s dialogue can dissect character‟s inner feelings ,activities and his characteristics so as to help audience understand the film better.Leech‟s Politeness Principle American linguistics H.P.Grice proposed the Cooperative Principle(CP for short)in the William James lecture delivered at Harvard University.Grice thinks that people all use CP both consciously and unconsciously when they use language to communicate.However, Grice‟s Cooperative Principle is not explain sufficiently(1)why people are often so indirect in conveying what they mean and(2）what is the relation between sense and force when non-declaration types of sentences are being considered[1] As a result, in 1983,Leech proposed Politeness Principle so as to rescue the CP from trouble.Leech believes the main reason that people violate CP intently is the consideration of politeness.From the perspective of rhetoric and stylistics,Leech(1983)lists six specific maxims,as summarized in the following:Tact Maxim, Generosity Maxim, Approbation Maxim, Modesty Maxim, Agreement Maxim and Sympathy Maxim.Apart from Leech ,Brown and Levinson(1987)proposed the Face Saving Theory too.In their view, face can pide into positive face and negative face.The positive face indicates to get people‟s agreement and praise;the negative face indicates the basic clame to territories,personal preserves,rights to non-interference.Brown and Levinson(1987)also proposed Face Threaten Acts(FTA for short).When people communicate, it always threats the faces of two parts.So, the speaker should obey the Politeness Principle in order to save not only his face, but also the hearer‟s face.They call politeness redressive strategies which contain three part.We only talk about the non-public politeness.It shows speaker‟s implicit polite.2.Dialogue Analysis The King‟s Speech is based on the true story of King George VI.After the death of his father and the scandalous abdication of King Edward VIII,Bertie who has suffered from a speech impediment all his life, is suddenly crowned King George VI of England.Because of his stammer and cowardice,he can not deliver a speech in public.His wife,the Queen Elizabeth,tries her best to find doctors to treat him.Finally, with the Lionel Logue‟s help, King George VI overcomes his stammer and deliver a radio-address that inspires his people and unities them in the battle.This paper tries to analyze the dialogue of the main characters through Politeness Principle.1 Scene:Lionel Logue is sitting on the crown ceremony chair King George VI(K for short): Get up!Y-you can't sit there!GET UP!Lionel Logue(L for short): Why not? It's a chair.K: T-that...that is Saint Edward's chair.L: People have carved their names on it.King George VI tries to persuade Lionel Logue not sit on that seat, which is Saint Edward's chair.But L does not listen.He thinks it just a chair ,just so ordinary.There is no difference compared with other chairs.while ,King George thinks it very important.Nobody can sit on it ,only Saint Edward.It is the represent of status.Here, L violates the Agreement Maxim through showing the different opinion about the chair..What‟s more ,L also hurts King George VI‟s positive face.In the dialogue ,By saying “Get up!Y-you can't sit there!GET UP!”and”T-that...that is Saint Edward's chair”,King George VI wants L understand it is a special chair and wants him to get up.But L does not listen.From the two points ,we can see Logue is a person who is despise the power and he pursues freedom.2 Scene: the quarrel between King George VI and Lionel Logue K: L-listen to me...listen to me!Logue: Why should I waste my time listening to you? K: Because I have a voice!

L:...yes, you do.In the first two short sentences ,we can know Lionel Logue refuse to listen K„s words.He hurts King‟s positive face.King George VI wants Lionel Logue listen to him and say his reason why Lionel Logue should listen to him.Logue agrees by saying”...yes, you do.”.This shows Lionel Logue obeys the Agreement Maxim.Logue agree that King has a voice.Here ,“have a voice”not only represents the power of his words but also the ability of delivering a speech in public.Logue uses non-public politeness to encourage King George VI to overcome his weakness---Stammer and discourage.That is to say ,Logue is very understanding and kind has positive power to encourage others in his heart.3 Scene:Queen Elizabeth‟s first visit to Logue:

Queen Elizabeth: My husband's work involves a great deal of public speaking.L: Then he should change jobs.Queen Elizabeth: He can't.L: What is he, an indentured servant? Queen Elizabeth: Something like that.The beginning of the short dialogue between Queen Elizabeth and Logue,when she says that her husband has a great deal of work about public speaking,(and we all know in the movie she explains the reason that her husband can‟t speak fluently before.)Logue should show his sympathy for her husband „s condition.But, in fact, he says that King George VI should change his job.Logue ,here, violates the Sympathy Principle 4 Scene:Queen Elizabeth‟s first visit to Logue:

L:Well,we need to have your hubby pop by...Tuesday would be good.He can give me his personal details and I‟ll make a frank appraisal and then we can take it from there.Queen Elizabeth:Doctor forgive me.I don‟t have a hubby and we don‟t pop and nor do we never talk about our private lives.L: No.You must come to us.L: I‟m Sorry Mrs J,my game, my turf,my rules

Queen Elizabeth „s responds save her negative face ,violate the Tact Maxim and the Generosity Maxim and her refusal hurts Logue‟s positive face.At the same time, Logue‟s respond(“You must come to us.””Sorry Mrs J,my game, my turf,my rules”)also hurts her negative face.From her response we can know she is very proud of her royal status and she takes it for granted that he should visit to them.5 Scene:King George VI and Logue first meeting L: What was your earliest memory? K: I'm not...here to discuss...personal matters.L: Why are you here then? K: Because I bloody well stammer!L:you have a bit of temper.K:one of my many faults.When Logue asks King‟s first memory of his stammer,he does no not say it explicitly but uses a very euphemistic way.He uses non-public politeness to saves King‟s face.And King obeys the Modesty Maxim when he responds to Logue(“one of my many faults.”)It can also show he is a modest person.6 Scene:before the speech begins,King and Logue practice K:”I solemnly promise to do so” L:Louder, I can‟t hear you up the back.K:”I solemnly promise to do so”(louder)L:Very good!

Here, Logue obeys the Approbation Maxim to praise King George VI ,which can encourage him have a better condition to make a speech.3.Conclusion

From the above dialogues ,we can see that characters often use politeness principle whether obey or violate it.The dialogue promotes the development of the plot,it also draws the outline of characters and their psychological changes.From the dialogue ,we can know Lionel Logue is kind ,generous ,inspirable and likes freedom.King George VI is a responsible, powerful king who always keeps trying.Queen Elizabeth is a woman who is always proud of her royal status.We can

draw a conclusion , using pragmatics properly when we watch movies ,it can help us understand and appreciate the film‟s art feature ,thought and characters better.Work cited
