中国电影终于一百年了,为纪念这个值得纪念的日子,学人们都在勤奋著述,听说光是新写的电影史就有好几套,这当然是件令人高兴的事情。40多年以前,第一部流传于外国研究者手间关于中国电影历史的书,居然是一个美国人用英文写的,这位在中国一家电影机构做过几年翻译顾问的作者,虽然收集了不少史料,但书中道听途说、主观臆断的成分也相当了得。 Chinese film is finally one hundred years. To commemorate this memorable day, people are all diligently writing about it. I heard that there are quite a few sets of films that are newly written. This is certainly a happy thing. More than 40 years ago, the first book circulating in the hands of foreign researchers on the history of Chinese cinema was actually an American who wrote it in English. The author who had been a translation consultant for several years at a Chinese movie agency collected A lot of historical data, but the book hearsay, the subjective assumptions of the composition is quite amazing.
