英语四级听力欧美电影练习：魔鬼的契约

　　电影前情提要：

　　"It’s kind-of small town and big boredom…” is the sharp judgment that a character in Jozef Zachar’s film, Contract With the Devil, passes on any Slovak town (including its capital city). At the point when storyline examines and explains the events that have already taken place, this comment reveals the main theme of the film, namely the forms of our boredom, the protagonists of our boredom, and what to do about our boredom. It is a theme that many viewers by the end of the 1960s appreciated as interesting, provocative, or daring. However, Zachar’s film certainly does not mark a breakthrough in filmic resolution of the theme. More than anything else, this trifle of a comedy—popular with viewers—is an interesting and emblematic battlefield of carelessly wasted opportunities. It holds viewers’ attention through a series of mere hints at insubordination to the societal constraints imposed or petrified by Communism. But the unfinished, careless filmic execution of those hints shows in high definition, so to say, the limits of many filmmakers’ thinking during the precious period of relaxed Communism in the 1960s.

　　影评：

　　网友1：拿青春美貌和魔鬼交换，最后胜利的总是魔鬼，而人按部就班地老去，回想起来也曾这般欢乐光景，只是代价太大

　　网友2：五个叛逆少女的奇幻之旅，青春特有的糜情，充满嘲弄幸而不残忍。轻松谐趣都在细节表现，扒窗那段够直接，车窗贴纸和婴儿车，城堡的穿堂风是神来之笔。配乐也是相当带感，别有意趣。不过这演员的大舌头……好吧，可爱～

　　网友3：捷克斯洛伐克电影真是前卫，60年代的电影版《皮囊》。
