In Response To: that's a matter opinion, as so much is *NM* (tcm) I agree with Vid Boi. I am in a class on the study of Chinese poetry, and there are two ways to translate a Chinese poem into English. As close as possible to the original text, or as a good English poem. It's a tough balance, but you need to understand how hard it is to adapt a book to a movie. Slow character development works in a book, not so much in a movie. Now I have never read the book, nor have I adapted a movie to any book, but I have studied translated poetry and I see alot of similarities. Imagine Shakespear in Russian. Would you rather it rhymed and sounded like a sonnet, or was sounded better and was smoother to read. A choice must be made, and I think the movie did a great job of keeping the tension. |
