日前,由章子怡、邓文迪合作投资的的新片《雪花与秘扇》在横店开拍。经历了换主角风波之后,目前该部影片已经确定有李冰冰、全智贤和休杰克曼出演。

《雪花与秘扇》根据美国华裔女作家邝丽莎(Lisa See,台湾地区译冯丽莎)的同名小说改编,讲述了19世纪的中国乡村女孩百合和雪花两个从小一起长大的人生经历。

十九世纪的中国,女人必须裹足,生活与外界几乎完全隔绝。在湖南省一个偏远地区的妇女,发展出她们独特的沟通密码:女书。有些少女结盟为“女同”,如同精神上的婚配,情谊可延续一生。这些妇女在扇子及巾帕上绣写女书,并编唱故事歌谣,藉以互通心迹……

英文简介:

In nineteenth-century China, when wives and daughters were foot-bound and lived in almost total seclusion, the women in one remote Hunan county developed their own secret code for communication: nu shu (“women’s writing”). Some girls were paired with laotongs, “old sames,” in emotional matches that lasted throughout their lives. They painted letters on fans, embroidered messages on handkerchiefs, and composed stories, thereby reaching out of their isolation to share their hopes, dreams, and accomplishments.
19世纪的中国,那时的妻子和女儿都要裹足,过着几乎完全隐居的生活,在湖南的遥远的一个村庄,妇女们发展出她们独特的沟通密码:女书。有些少女结盟为“女同”,如同精神上的婚配,情谊可延续一生。这些妇女在扇子上及手帕上续写女书,并编写成故事,以此共享她们的希望和梦想,互通心迹。

With the arrival of a silk fan on which Snow Flower has composed for Lily a poem of introduction in nu shu, their friendship is sealed and they become “old sames” at the tender age of seven. As the years pass, through famine and rebellion, they reflect upon their arranged marriages, loneliness, and the joys and tragedies of motherhood. The two find solace, developing a bond that keeps their spirits alive. But when a misunderstanding arises, their lifelong friendship suddenly threatens to tear apart.
随着丝绸扇的到来,在这种扇子上小女孩雪花为百合写了女书的诗歌前奏,她们的友谊封存起来,在风残的70岁她们成为了“老同”。随着岁月的流逝,经历过饥荒和反叛,她们回忆着她们的包办婚姻、孤独和作为母亲的喜悦和悲伤。这两种慰藉物,发展为她们维持她们精神不息的支柱。但是当误解上升的时候,她们永恒的友情也会突然间受到分开的威胁。

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan is a brilliantly realistic journey back to an era of Chinese history that is as deeply moving as it is sorrowful. With the period detail and deep resonance of Memoirs of a Geisha, this lyrical and emotionally charged novel delves into one of the most mysterious of human relationships: female friendship.
《雪花和秘扇》是一部出色的真实的回顾中国历史的作品,如此的感人和令人悲痛。通过这一时期的细节和对艺妓回忆录的深深地认同感,这部抒情的和充满感情的小说探究了一个最神秘的人类关系:女性的友谊。
