If you or someone you know has ever studied abroad in college, you’ve certainly heard or experienced the trope[修辞,比喻] about “finding yourself” in some far-off,

exotic[异国情调的] land. While travel affords the opportunity

to learn and explore different cultures in a direct,

visceral[内心深处的] way, it can also set up the premise[前提,假定]

that one must journey far outside their comfort zone to discover how their life “should be.”

In the trailer for Eat Pray Love, based on the 2006 memoir[回忆录] Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman’s Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia注 by

Elizabeth Gilbert, Julia Roberts plays Gilbert a thirty something writer unhappy with her marriage who

decides to divorce her husband and spend the next year traveling the world. The book, which

chronicled[记事] her four months each in Italy, India and Bali, struck a nerve with those feeling lost in life.

Based on the trailer, the movie doesn’t seem to stray[偏离] too far from its literary[文学的] source material. With lines like “I used to have this appetite[胃口,欲望] for my life and it is just gone” and “I have not given myself

two weeks of a breather just to deal with myself,” the premise is set up nicely for those who have never heard of the book. We will give props[支持], though, to the team behind the film for not giving away the entire movie, ending included, in the trailer, a trend we have been noticing more and more recently.

The film produced by Brad Pitt, co-stars Viola Davis, Javier Bardem, Billy Crudup and James Franco opens August 13th. Spiritual advisors, yoga teachers and travel agents have already got August 14th marked on their calendar with a big X.

Plot Summary

Elizabeth Gilbert (Julia Roberts) had everything a modern woman is supposed to dream of having a husband, a house, a successful career yet like so many others, she found herself lost, confused, and searching for what she really wanted in life. Newly divorced and at a crossroads, Gilbert steps out of her comfort zone, risking everything to change her life, embarking on[从事,着手] a journey around the world that becomes a quest for self-discovery. In her

travels, she discovers the true pleasure of

nourishment[食物,营养品] by eating in Italy; the power of prayer in India, and, finally and unexpectedly, the inner peace and balance of true love in Bali. Based upon the bestselling memoir by Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat Pray Love proves that there really is more than one way to let yourself go and see the world.

Filming Eat Pray Love helped Julia Roberts

prepare for a 13.5-mile marathon which her husband Danny Moder convinced her to run for charity.

The actress admitted that shooting in hot weather in places such as India, Bali and Italy meant she was trained for the event in California in December last year.

“I trained a lot while I was doing the movie and it was so hot there, I think it was to my

advantage[对某人有利] that I had trained under such

dire[可怕的] circumstances[环境],” the Daily Express

quoted her, as saying.

She added: “I just wanted to show my kids that the power of a female body is more than just giving birth, which is a great power…and my kids were out there, they made me a sign.”

如果你或你认识的人曾经在海外高校学习,你一定听说或体验过在遥远的异国他乡“寻找自我”这种说法。旅行除了让人有机会以一种直接、发自内心的方式学习和探索不同的文化外,还能带出这样一个观点――人们必须远离舒适地带才能发现他们“真正的”人生。

电影《美食、祈祷和恋爱》改编自

伊丽莎白・吉尔伯特2006年写的回忆录――《一辈子做女孩》。在电影预告片里,朱莉娅・罗伯茨饰演吉尔伯特――这位三十几岁的作家不满意自己的婚姻,决定与丈夫离婚,在接下来的一年里游历世界。该书依次记录了她在意大利、印度和巴厘岛各

四个月的经历,触动了那些对生活感到迷惘的人的

心弦。

从预告片来看,这部电影基本上没有偏离原著。配上诸如“我曾经如此热爱自己的生活,而今热情不再”,以及“我从未给自己两个星期的时间好好喘息,整理情绪”的台词,影片为那些没听说过这本书的人打下了很好的基础。不过,我们很赞同幕后制作团队的做法――他们没有在预告片中把包括结局的整个故事说完――而我们发现最近这种趋势越来越常见。

这部由布拉德・皮特担任制片人的电影将于

8月13日上映,其他演员还包括维奥拉・戴维斯、哈维尔・巴登、比利・克鲁德普和詹姆斯・弗兰科。精神导师、瑜伽教师和旅行社职员已经在日历上用一个大叉将8月14日这一天标示出来了。

剧情简介

伊丽莎白・吉尔伯特(朱莉娅・罗伯茨饰)拥有现代女性梦想的一切――丈夫、房子、成功的事业。然而,就像很多人一样,她发现自己很迷惘、很困惑,试图找寻真正想要的东西。离婚不久、处于人生交叉点的吉尔伯特离开了自己的舒适地带,赌上一切去改变人生,开始了一次后来演变成寻求自我发现的环球之旅。旅途中,她在意大利享受美食时发现了食物的真正乐趣;在印度发现了祈祷的力量;最后,她在巴厘岛意外地找到了内心的平静以及真爱的平衡之道。《美食、祈祷和恋爱》改编自伊丽莎白・吉尔伯特的畅销回忆录。它证明了释放自己、放眼世界确实不止一种方式。

朱莉娅・罗伯茨的丈夫丹尼・莫德说服了她参加13.5英里(21.7千米)的马拉松慈善跑,而《美食、祈祷和恋爱》的拍摄恰好有助其准备。

这位女演员承认,在天气炎热的季节到诸如印度、巴厘岛和意大利这些地方拍摄,相当于为去年12月在(美国)加利福尼亚州举行的盛事

进行训练。

“在拍摄这部电影的时候,我进行了大量训练,而且那里酷热无比,我认为在如此严酷的环境下训练对我有帮助,”《每日快报》引述她的话说。

她补充道:“我只是想让我的孩子们看到女性身体的力量远不止生孩子――这是一种伟大的力量……我的孩子都到场(看)了,他们还为我做了一个标语。”
