“Woman” was, in a nutshell, a beautiful film. I don’t say that lightly, and it’s not an adjective I use much. However, it’s the one word I found myself thinking and feeling over and over again during the 100 minutes of dazzling footage. Perhaps it’s the only coherent thought that emerges in the forefront of my brain after the intensity of the film.
看完「女也」我只能用一個詞去形容：美。我不輕易的使用美這個形容詞，但是看完這100分鐘，令人百感交集的各種畫面與言語，唯有「美」這個詞浮現在我的腦海裡。
Visually, the variety of women pictured is stunning. Nearly all the ways females can be classified are represented, in intense detail. I realized that before I never looked at people properly—-how different we are, how similar we are! The tableaus of different women’s lives was also enthralling. So much said in those few seconds. It reminded me of a scrap quilt; so many different prints, all beautiful in their own way, and seemingly so different; yet all together as one cohesive whole.
世界各國各式各樣女性的畫面令人驚艷，幾乎每一種女性都有被代表到。在觀看這些女性的臉孔時，我居然發現我好像從來沒有這麼仔細的觀察過人的面相。仔細觀察，他們的故事其實就描述在他們面相裡。而且，越看越發現，雖然千人千面，但我們的故事大同小異。在短短的幾秒鐘，我們就可以深深的感受並且了解這個女人的人生。這個電影裡有著幾百個角色，但是我並不覺得雜亂—就如一塊拼布一樣；各式各樣的圖案，但是組合在一起時是個美麗的一片。
Is it an easy watch? It is, and it isn’t. It’s so intimate, and familiar—-you could be watching your friend, your relative, even yourself. And yet the topics are not always so comfortable. All the joy and pain of women’s identities are covered, from those wonderous moments of self-discovery, growth and love to those experiences of violence, trauma and oppression. Myriad topics are illuminated through a few sentences of a woman’s story; education, motherhood, child marriage, trafficking. It is not easy to handle. But as the women say again and again, “we are women, so we are strong.” Even after feeling these hundreds of stories in a short amount of time, we find that there is a greater force, able to contain all the sadness and pain, and even find space for compassion, love, joy and hope. As John Berryman put it in 77 Dream Songs, “Women is better, braver.”
令人喜悅又痛心的訴說，容易消化嗎？當然不。這些女人的故事，可能是你家人的，可能是你朋友的，也有可能是你的。一個女人的身分與特質深深的被討論，而且有一百個面相，有些是溫馨的，有些是幽默的，有些是可悲的。各國女人面臨的難題也有帶到，包括社會不喜歡討論的家暴與人口販運。不，它不是一個很容易消化的電影。但是像電影裡女性說到的一點，「我們是女人，所以我們很堅強。」就算有醜陋或痛苦的經驗，我們擁有更大的力氣包容它，關懷它，甚至還有足夠的愛心與勇氣與它並存，迎接有希望的未來。如John Berryman詩人所寫，「女人更好，更勇。」
For the record (and I spent awhile thinking about it): I am an inquisitive woman.

樓上所言有誤
根據英漢字典 <遠東新世紀> 所給的例句 (查variety)
A variety of food is sold at a supermarket.
A variety of hooks are used, each for a different kind of fish.
動詞的單複數應該是取決於 a variety of 後方接的名詞
第一句food為不可數名詞，後方be動詞為is
第二句hooks為複數名詞，後方為are
祝原po明天考試順利!!!
