《指环王2》仍有许多美好值得坚持
小弗罗多(Frodo)原本平静祥和的生活因为一枚象征黑暗权力的魔戒而被颠覆。他不得不和伙伴山姆(Sam)一起,踏上毁灭戒指、保全人类的艰辛之旅途。在又一次死里逃生之后,Frodo开始动摇、灰心,他想他们是不可能完成这样艰巨的使命了,下面摘录的即是Sam表达的感想。这也应该是《指环王》三部曲的作者借Sam之口说出的整部电影的中心所在。
F: I can't do this, Sam.
S: I know. It's all wrong. By rights, we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo, the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you don't want to know the end, because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened?
But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it will shine out the clearer. These were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something evne if you were too small to understand.
But I think, Mr. Frodo. I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turing back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.
F: What are we holding on to, Sam?
S: That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fight for.
