Joe Miller: Some of these people make me sick. But a laws been broken here. You do remember the law, dont you?乔：某些这样的人令我想吐。

但是一个规矩在这里被打破了。

你一定记得那条规矩，不是吗？--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Joe Miller: Now, explain it to me like Im a four-year-old.乔：现在，和我解释一下，就当我是一个四岁的孩子。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------[Joe Miller is in court and has just asked his witness whether he is a homosexual] （乔在法庭并且正询问他的目击证人是否他是一个同性恋）Joe Miller: Are you a homo? Are you a queer? Are you a faggot?Are you a fruit? Are you *gay*, sir?乔：你是一个同性恋？你是一个同性恋？你是一个同性恋？你是一个同性恋？你是一个同性恋，先生？（译注：homo、queer、faggot、 fruit、gay等为同性恋的不同说法。

）Librarian: Sir, wouldnt you be more comfortable in a study room?[Andrew looks up and sees people in the library staring at him]Andrew Beckett: No. Would it make you more comfortable?图书馆员：先生，在研究室不是更舒服吗？[安德鲁抬起头，看着图书馆中盯着他看的人]安德鲁·贝克特：不，那样是不是会让你更舒服一点？--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Joe Miller: The Federal Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits discrimination against otherwise qualified handicapped persons who are able to perform the duties required by their employment. Although the ruling did not address the specific issue of HIV and AIDS discrimination...Andrew Beckett: Subsequent decisions have held that AIDS is protected as a handicap under law, not only because of the physical limitations it imposes, but because the prejudice surrounding AIDS exacts a social death which precede... which precedes the physical one.Joe Miller: This is the essence of discrimination: formulating opinions about others not based on their individual merits, but rather on their membership in a group with assumed characteristics.乔·米勒：1973年的联邦康复法案禁止歧视伤残人士，只要他们能担任工作。

又名: 飞越时空/ 消失的1943 / 费城超时空试验/ 第四度空间类型: 剧情 / 爱情 / 科幻/ 奇幻 / 冒险制片国家/地区: 美国语言: 英语上映日期: 1984-08-03(美国)片长: 102 分钟IMDb链接: tt0087910导演: 斯图尔特·罗菲尔编剧: Charles Berlitz / Don Jakoby / Michael Janover / William Gray主演: 迈克尔·帕尔/ 南茜·艾伦/ Eric Christmas评分：豆瓣7.4剧情：1943年10月，美国海军在费城进行了一次人工强磁场的机密试验，即着名的“费城实验（The Philadelphia Experiment）”，实验成功地将一艘驱逐舰及全体船员投入另一空间。

在实验过程中，实验人员啟动脉衝和非脉衝器，使船只周围形成了一个巨大的磁场。

随后整条船被一团绿光笼罩着，船只和船员也开始从人们的视线中消失。

实验终止时，舰船已被移送到了479公里以外的诺福克（Norfolk）码头。

此后，一些船员身上仍留有实验的反应，不论在家里，在街上，在酒吧间或饭店里，都会突然地消失又重现，让旁观者惊讶不已。

费城实验的进行具有着深远的意义，它不仅证实了自然界中的确有我们看不到的另外空间的存在，同时也表明瞭将人类及装备暂时投入另一空间的可行。

《费城实验》是一部1984年上映的美国科幻电影，影片讲述了在一次实验中，科学家已经可以将人物利用磁场瞬间转移，此次实验被称为“费城实验”。

然而参加实验者的身上留下了实验的后遗症，有时候会突然消失再出现在另外一个地方。

不幸的是，参与实验的几名主要负责人集体自杀，让“费城实验”不了了之。

《费城故事》剧情介绍费城故事安德鲁和乔是费城的两名年轻律师，他们工作努力，都有美好的前途。

但是，安德鲁不敢告诉老板自己是一名同性恋者，并且染上了爱滋病。

就在他刚获提升不久，却因老板发现了秘密而以他丢失文件为由把他解雇了，安德鲁找到乔希望他接受这个案子。

乔本来拒绝受理，但在妻子露易丝的责骂和安德鲁的请求下答应了。

安德鲁的家人支持他走上法庭。

开庭审理时，众多示威者聚集在法院门外，要求给同性恋者合法权益，不准歧视艾滋病人。

但被告却坚持不承认是因此原因解雇安德鲁的。

安德鲁衰弱的身体已无法承受剧烈的抗艾滋病药物的静脉注射，他预感到自己快不行了。

但他仍坚强地挺过了激烈的法庭答辩。

到了审判的日子，陪审团终于宣判原告安德鲁受到不公正解雇，被告应负责赔偿损失。

安德鲁终于获胜了。

乔奔赴医院将这一消息告诉了安德鲁和他的家人，但安德鲁却不能再支持下去了，他正在慢慢死去。

演员介绍费城故事汤姆·汉克斯美国演员，连续两届以《费城》和《阿甘正传》荣获奥斯卡影帝，自90年代中期以来惊人地保持着数一数二的江湖地位。

6岁时父母离异，随着厨师父亲各处跑，高中时开始着迷演戏，大学念到一半干脆辍学全身投入演艺圈。

1979年首次演出电影小角色，接着进入电视圈演出一堆喜剧。

1984年他以《美人鱼》崭露头角，四年后因《飞进未来》首度入围奥斯卡最佳男主角。

1992年《红粉联盟》和1993年《西雅图夜未眠》使他成为票房巨星，真正的突破是《费城》。

擅长表现平凡人的不平凡一面。

自拍罢《幸福终点站》后，汤姆·汉克斯已鲜有大作了，之后接拍的《师奶杀手》因票房惨淡而让这位影帝略显颓势。

2006年又在朗·霍华德导演的影片《达芬奇密码》中出演男主角。

虽然近几年来汉克斯没有给影迷带来足够震撼的作品，但他在影迷心目中的地位却是难以动摇的。

丹泽尔·华盛顿出生于纽约州的弗农山，他的父亲是一位牧师，母亲是个美容师。

到他14时，他父母亲的关系开始恶化，丹泽尔和他的姐姐被送进了一所寄宿学校。

3.The story of Philadelphia费城故事安德鲁（汤姆•汉克斯 Tom Hanks 饰）和米勒（丹泽尔•华盛顿Denzel Washington 饰）认识于法庭上，两人都是年轻有为的律师，各为其主。

然而，年轻的安德鲁不久后因为同性恋和身染艾滋病被老板发现，以莫须有理由解雇了。

遭解雇后的安德鲁四处寻找律师为他讨回公道。

当安德鲁找到米勒时，米勒一开始拒绝了他。

因为米勒像普通人一样憎恨同性恋和惧怕艾滋病，但当他看到安德鲁在图书馆搜索“艾滋病歧视”时遭到管理员的白眼，听着妻子缓慢而平静地说出他们的姨妈、朋友有很多也是同性恋时，他决定受理安德鲁的案件。

在最后的法庭上，病危的安德鲁毅然出庭……Andrew Beckett, a gay lawyer infected with AIDS, is fired from his law firm in fear that they might contract AIDS from him. After Andrew is fired, in a last attempt for peace, he sues his former law firm with the help of a homophobic lawyer, Joe Miller. During the court battle, Miller sees that Beckett is no different than anyone else on the gritty streets of the city of brotherly love, sheds his homophobia and helps Beckett with his case before AIDS overcomes him.Andrew’s words impressed me, he said, “It’s every now and again not often but occasional, you get to be a part of justice being done, that’s really quite thrill when that happens.” it make me feel the power of justice. The mostimpressed part of the film is that, Andrew’s family support Andrew fight for his rights. It reminds me to think about the two questions, the homosexuality and AIDS. I have never discriminated the AIDS patient, but I show a little uncomfortable of homosexuality. And now I know more about the problem, and I change my opinion. The gay should be allowed, should be treated fair and should be blessed. Because no matter when, there is nothing wrong with love, and loving somebody who has the same sex with you isn’t an error. So we should give more tolerance to them, and make them feel more comfortable to love and to be loved.The film ends up with a song, and the song tells us Philadelphia is a country filled with love, and it is the place where the Declaration of Independence is published。
