Movie Review of Scent of a W omanName:程园Student Number: 081323223Class: C08English2Mistakes are unavo idable in our life. But “if you make a mistake, get all tangled up, just tango on”. This is a beautiful sentence and also a good witty maxim of life which is abstracted in Scent of a woman, whose screen debut was in 1992. Scent of a woman is a very beautiful and moving film. Once having seen this film, you will remain confident in your life and recognize that mistake is not so terrifying that it cannot be corrected or conquered. Just live with these mistakes and move on, and then the sun will shine on you always.This is a story between Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade (Al Pacino) and an undergraduate of Baird University called Charlie Simms (Chris O'Donnell). Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade is starred by Al Pacino, who is an excellent actor. But he has missed the Academy Award for many times. Fortunately, because of this film, he won the Academy Award for Best Actor. His performance is quite excellent that the inner world of an ex-serviceman isvivid ly shown by him. Both Al Pacino and Chris O'Donnell have received high praise due to this film.Charlie Simms was a poor student. The Christmas was coming, but Charlie had no money to buy an air ticket. Fortunately, he saw a job-offering board saying that students can take part-time jobs to earn money by helpingex-servicemen. So he took a job of this kind. At that time, Charlie was in trouble for that he had witnessed some students made fun of their president. With this trouble haunted in Charlie‟s mind, Charlie became the assistant of Frank. The story was gradually unfolded. Frank Slade was an ill-tempered and blind Lieutenant Colonel. He always hoped on Charlie. But Charlie was a kind guy, so he learned to tolerate it. Frank had already lost confidence in life, so he made a special plan and decided to use all the money he had collected for a long time to make a last journey of his life, and then commit suicide in New York City. But Charlie saved him out of frustration and Frank began to restart his life. A flower of parent-child relationship blossomed gradually between them.In this movie, there are three scenes which are very impressing and easy to arouse resonance. The first one is an unforgettable tango. After arriving inNew Y ork City, Frank and Charlie had dinner in an exclusive restaurant. They met a young stunning woman called Donna there, who had a fresh and pleasant scent. Frank offered his help to teach Donna tango. Donna said that she was afraid of making mistakes, while Frank said “if you make a mistake, get all tangled up, just tango on”. At that restaurant, Frank and Donna performed a beautiful and impressing tango. Mistakes are forgiven in tango, that‟s where the glamour of tango lies in. Maybe that‟s why Frank likes tango. In tango, if you do wrong, you can restart. However, life is so different that it cannot be restarted. The music they danced to which is worth mentioning is called Por Una Cabeza. It is indeed a grazioso and sweet violin piece.The second is a crazy but an exciting car drive. One day morning, Frank seemed so out of energy. When he said he had another plan, Charlie asked him what it was. When hearing the two words “to die”, Charlie was scared. He started to keep talking and try to engage Frank‟s attention. To Charlie‟s delight, Frank‟s face shone at the mention of a ride. Then they went to the car store of Faraday. At the cost of $2000 as deposit, they finally drove a red one out of the store. With Charlie‟s help, Frank made several successful sharp turns and achieved a pleasant sensation of managing a car in blackness. This incident became a pearl in both Frank and Charlie‟s memories. The feelings between them were deepened greatly.The third is that a vehement speech made by Frank in Baird University in order to save Charlie‟s future. In this scene, what he said is so terrific. There is a small paragraph I like so much, so I have to quote it. He said that: “Now I have come to crossroads in my life, I always knew what the right path was. Without exception, I knew, but I never took it, you know why, it was too damn hard. Now here's Charlie, he's come to the crossroads, he has chosen a path. It's the right path, it's a path made of princip le that leads to character.”What he said is absolutely right. In modern society, faced with crossroads, quite a few people know which the right path is, and all of which know that it is too damn hard. Therefore, many people choose to surrender to the corruption or any other bad things in society, and never feel ashamed. Meanwhile, a few will choose the right path. But Charlie did so. Charlie was the one who should be rewarded by God.The modern society is no better than the world created by this film. But we must keep our integrity and purity in our heart. Being kind and not giving up is the secret of surviving. I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded, which is given evidence in this film.A s the famous saying goes, …The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose‟. If you can give somebody a favor when he was in trouble, not only he will be grateful for you, but also you will get gratified or even rewarded from what you have done. Charlie was just such a guy who does as this and at lasthe was given a promising future. So, just to be warm-hearted, it will surely do you good.Life is full of ups and downs. It is mistake that makes people lovely. Therefore, never, never be afraid of making mistakes, just do it, if mistake is made, then just try to correct or improve, and then move on. Always keep in mind that life is beautiful.。

Aroma around the soul——Comment on "Scent of a Woman"In writing this film before,I seen a lot of people wrote the film critic, said: "’Scent of a Woman ‘have nothing to do with a woman that is the story of two men." I object to.If you are careful in-depth appreciation of the film, you will find that there are aircraft in the air from California, and the sister in elder brother family,the beautiful girl Donna in a restaurant.although only a handful of films A few fragments women, but entire movie is full of women's fragrance. By Al Pacino as Frank is the woman with perfect precision the thoughts of conjecture, Fresh is everywhere.Because of an accident and the blind Lt. Col. Frank finally retired niece live in a cottage garden at home. He has been brilliant all go a long way to accompany his body was covered with only the Medal of the military uniform, Flanagan and blind cane. God he was aged footer and a dark life forever, can no longer fighting for the country. The dignity of the soldiers told him that if the community, for others makes no sense, the existence of life there will be no value. So he was prepared to let his enjoyed a wonderful time in the last, to give up one's soul.But when Charles went from high school, he started to change the idea.He came to New York with Charles. He was once in their own place, and then once again the feeling of that year. In Hamburg to 24 U.S. dollars a luxury hotel, the presidential-level extension of the Lincoln car, in possession of numerous sprayed perfume all kinds of wonderful women on the party in Hua Fu Dole's luxury hotel suite in the big comfortable bed of the United States and the United States Sleep, and then finally had to honor his countless of his own gun end of life. And when he knew that Charles had been expelled from their school, as well as the abolition of the danger of sending Harvard is not willing to sell it is not their own when a few friends of friends, Frank suddenly found that the long life of courage, In this small body, there is a complete soul, can destroy the body, the soul can not sell. So in the end, all students at Frank, impassioned, mercilessly criticized the president of the Charles because we should not expose other people's absurd decision to expel him. "I have seen many like him, even more than his small children, disabled broken foot,but not terrible, terrible thing is the soul of the incomplete because the soul can not remedy the artificial limb! My life I have experienced countless Turning point, I never know what is the right way, but I never take the right path, why? Because it's too much work going the right way, and Charlie, in the face of choice, he chose the right path, a path leading to the principles of the road leading to the personality of Road, to allow him to continue to take this course of action it. "Charles won, Frank is also won.Blind for many years, in another small battle, he helped a man named Charlie to win the battle of middle school students, but also to help themselves in the last period of life on the road to win the battle. He hailed the whole school students walked out of the Bell Middle School, and the release of his wandering soul, he found himself once again the value of the discovery of the world remain in the ground in addition to the magic of a woman who heard of the brand of perfume, Dashing out of the passion of tango, the blind can also open Falalila wind, a lot a lot.Overview the film can be found in Frank always hovering around, is a fragrance. When he was warm in the face of the woman, in the face of life, this array will be accompanied by his lively aroma fly; and when he decadent negative, it is also far from the array aroma. Just all depends on his attitude towards life.。

Scent of a WomanAfter a half period, we watched a lot of movies, among these films, my favorite is Scent of a Woman.Hearing the movie Scent of a Woman, I thought it is the kind of movie wi th romantic plots. However the movie called "Scent of a Woman" with no real women,more precisely, it is a movie about men.The film tells, Charlie is a a poor but excellent prep school student,he is forthright,sincere and shy. On the Thanksgiving, he has no money to travel with his friends and in order to get a Christmas back home ticket, so took a look after the work of the blind. Once served in the army a 26 year blind lieutenant colonel appearance is that informal section, vulgar mouth repeatedly, used his outgoing loud scolded the Charlie, curse everything. Charlie in the hostess request took the job, he was in a school met a trouble, a staff member of the school can prove that he and another students George are bear witness to the planning of the mischief．Thus the headmaster decides to have them stand out and tell him who the suspects are so that he can punish the boys.The headmaster decides to talk with Charlie in private，offering a direct recommendation to Harvard University as a bribe to push Charlie to give out the three boys names．Sell or not to sell? This is a let Charlie fear problem, let him so helpless and hesitating. The students by seeing a prank and questioning by the headmaster. Or compromise, or abide by the principle, was quiet at the way to college the waves, life was forced to face a choice.Lieutenant colonel was general patton's adjutant, experienced war and many setbacks, in an accident eyes was blown the blind. All day he at home doing nothing, and he lost live courage and confidence. Long-term blind to make life history of lieutenant colonel particularly sensitive hearing and smell, and can even smell the perfume taste each other by identifying the height, hair color and eye color. It originates from the life of his deep understanding andcomprehension. He is ready to used up the last energy to enjoy a better life. He took Charlie getaways, eat delicacies, dance tango, live luxury hotel... And then want to end his life.They meet at one of life's crossroads, Charlie tried to prevent the lieutenant colonel of suicide, and from then on, they were a father and son between such as feelings. Frank also recovered the live courage and strength.Frank makes a speech in Charlie’s school and persuade the Disciplinary Committee not to expelled Charlie for he didn’t tell the fact.I was deeply touched by this movie,though it has no convulse scene ,I ap preciate it because of something about life it teach us.It tells us not to lose hope of life, even if you are blind like Frank. Frank is a very proud man with a glorious time as a colonel , so he is very negative after he became blind. His families do not know what he need indeed. He thinks he is a failed man, useless, the only way to finish the unhappy life is to kill himself. But in fact, he is a charming person. He is able to dance the tango and drive a Ferrari better than normal people.He tells Charlie he just live with some thoughts.When Frank being despairing, Charlie faces Frank’s gun bravely and tells Frank he is attractive when he danced the tango and drove Ferrari. Actually,we are afraid of death as well as Frank.We can’t live with beautiful thing all the time ,but there is always a reason keeps us go on.Don’t lose hope of life.Nobody’s life can be always problem-free and full of sunshine. What matters is how to face it. If you never give up under any situation, then you can overcome the difficulties, get out of the difficult positions and obtain success.Charlie makes an example for me, he didn’t sell anybody out to buy his future. Nowadays, more and more persons lose themselves; they are selfish, dishonest, and snobbish. They lose their soul.But Charles can maintain his principle, it’s difficult for him to do that. Because he doesn’t tell the true that he will be expelled.With the help of Frank,Charlie insists on his own belief, throwing away the burdens and selfishness. It is difficult for everyone to keep honest all the time. Integrity and courage are the stuff leaders should be madeof. Charlie guides a bright way for his classmates and us.At present, more and more people are selfish,But in our society there also are people like Charles. So when we meet the setbacks, we should remember the Colonel’s word: Person's life just a few decades, the most important thing is to not let their own, and maintain a complete soul. Because of a broken leg missing arm is not the ugliest, incompleteness is the soul of the ugliest!On the other hand,i n the tour to New York City, Charlie finds Frank’s attraction and helps frank restore confidence to his life. Frank thinks highly of Charlie because of Charlie is pure in heart. The relation between Frank and Charlie gradually become like father and son. Sometimes our confidence comes from others encouragement and praise, so it is important to know how to praise. Our life will suffer loneliness and depression, but friendship will warm our heart. We have much to share with our friends in life, including happiness and sadness, so it is important for you to find real friendship.In our life, we always suffer different misfortunes in each of our stage, but we should be those who face up to the cruel world bravely instead of being negative.There are many films you can gain strength from them. The Scent of a Woman is one of them, but unlike them, this one is stronger. Remember the sentence“If you’re tangled up, just tango on.”Two and one-half hour,Scent of a woman teaches us too much,it is really worthy to appreciate.Candy41207273。

The review of “Scent of a Woman”外国语学院A08英语2班潘晓苏Susan081102219666192“Scent of a Women” was a really seminal movie which told a moving story between two generations. Through the delicate description, the movie showed the changing of two hearts. It also was a nice movie about setback and the capacity we have for surprising ourselves by changing.“Scent of Woman”released in 1992 was a recopying of the 1975 version realesed in Italy with the same name, which was made based on the homonymy novel. The novel was written by the Italian writter Giovanni Arpion, and the latest movie was rewritten by Bo Goldman. Due to the perfect rewritten, this movie won the screenwriting Oscar in 1992. This movie was directed by Martin Brest who also directed “Midnight Run” in1988, which earned Golden Globe nominations for Best Actor, and Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy for himself. “Scent of Woman”was mainly starred by Al Pacino and Chris O'Donnell who are both famous.The film won a Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Drama and Best Screenplay for Bo Goldman. Due to the excellent perfomance of Al Pacino who acted as a blind Lieutenant Colonel, he earned Golden Globes for Best Actor – Drama and an Oscar for Best Actor. In addition, the film was nominated for several Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director.Unlike other pupular Hollywood blockbusters which always tell stories about love between heterosexual relationship, this movie told a story about how two troubled man helped each other to get through their bad situation. To some degree, this movie liked a diary which recorded stories simply in chronological order, but it was atmospheric. Through the exquisite description of the events happened along their journey, the movie showed us the radical changing of both the two men.The plot of “Scent of Women” was creative and absorbing. In the movie, there were two quite different men. Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade, an experienced demobilized soldier who lost his eyes in a blast. After the accident, he became snappish and desperate. He lost the hope of life and planed to suicide. Charlie Simms was a upright young man who faced a big trouble. He was hesitant whether he should tell the truth to the headmaster about the insulting trick which was played by some students on the pricipal. The headmaster threatened him that if he don’t tell the truth, he will miss the chance to go to Cambridge. In order to earn the traveling expense for Thanksgiving Day, Charlie took the job as the assistant of Frank. At that time, Frank had decided his last journey of his life. He enforced Charlie to go withhim to New York. In New York, he did a lot of crazy things which left a deep impression on audience. After all these things, Frank regained the courage and confidence for life and Charlie also learned a lesson about how to be a man.In this movie, the title seems not closely connected with the plot. Because it was a story between two men. But in other hand, the title was closely connected with the theme,because it indicated the blindness of Frank. Frank was a man who loved women very much. But after the accident, he couldn’t see anything more. So his nose became quite sensitive. He could only get the sense of women by their smell. The smell was his pursue of bright and hope and was the only thing that can associate him with the world around him. It showed his dream if he could see these beautiful women and the wonderful world again. And to Charlie, he also had his own dream that he wanted to have a promising outlook and get rid of destitution. But at that time, he was in dilemma and lost his direction. He told his trouble to Frank and Frank helped him analyse. When Frank was trying to help Charlie, he found that he still can do something helpful so he regained his dignity.The most moving scene in the movie was Frank’s sexy dance with Donna. Tango, the most romantic and passionate dance in the world showed Frank’s charm. As a blind man, he danced better than a lot of the normal people. We can feel that he was dancing with his soul. Al Pacino’s vivid and incisive perfomance described the mental world of Frank completely. And the most exciting scene in the movie was the Frank’s driving of the red racing car.He was so cracy that he dared to drvie the car without saying anything. It’s just an adventure, he didn’t care his safety or life, and he only wanted to do the things which he had expected for so long a time and liberated the ambition repressed by the losing of eyesight. And the most impressioned scene was the speech Frank made in Charlie’s school. His aura was so charming. He said what people dare not say.The music of this movie was musiced by Thomas Newman. The style of the music was natural and fresh. It liked the wind in spring which warm our heart and let us relaxed. Especially, the song which companied the dance make a big wonderment. The famous tango song Por Una Cabeza was created by Carlos Cardel in 1935 and was performed by Itzhak Perlman. The song is full of enthusiasm and romantic. And it can touch your heart deeply as if it knows your desire and emotion and tells your own story. It have been used in several movie, including “Schindler's List” and “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”.Due to the absorbing and moving plot, the excellent perfomance and the cozy music, I give “Scent of Woman” 5 stars. It is worth watching for many times.。

Scent of a Woman《闻香识女人》这部颇有诗意的片名吸引了我。

看完之后才发觉：名字是文艺的，影片是商业的。

但，两者之间没有太大的粘连。

拆分《闻香识女人》的元素，拾到的零件有励志和搞笑。

这是一部典型的美国片。

以前，从未觉得一个人的香气会有那么奇妙特别, 现在, 有些动容了。

除了跳Tango的一段和开法拉利的一段还有学校演讲的一段，个人喜欢Frank独自去见一个美丽女人的一段。

那段留白真是让人好奇不已：从他进去的英姿勃发，到出来时的失魂落魄，可以想象：失去了视力和青春的老中校对自己的失望。

电影刻画的东西太艺术，以至于无法叫人相信也不会在现实中存在。

但相对人生而言--如果想要灵魂的高贵，必须要有清醒的自知--这是我从影片中学到的。

以下是《闻香识女人》几段经典对白（附中文翻译）：-西门先生不需要！！他不需要被贴上“博德人”的标志，这算什么？你们的座右铭是什么？“孩子们，出卖朋友求自保，否则烧得你不见灰”？先生们……出纰漏时，有人跑有人留，查理面对烈火，那边的乔治躲进老爹的口袋里，结果你做什么呢？你奖励乔治，摧折查理。

My review on Scent of a womanI have seen a movie in the class which gives a deep impression on me. A good moviealways gives us big surprises and we often can benefit a lot from all kinds of movies .Scent of a Woman is a kind of this movie. “Scent of a woman” is a very attractive film title.It is easyfor people to think some other things. However, this film from the beginning to theend is just a film between two men.The film has two main characters whoare totally different. One is a young man named Charles who studies in a famous college and the other is a retired veteran named Frank who loses his sight and his way of life by accident. The story between them is very interesting. Thanksgiving Day was coming and Charles wanted to go home with his family but he did not have enough money. So he found a part-time job to afford his ticket.His job was to look after a blind man named Frank. Frank was a very excellent colonel. But when he became a blind man, he became bad-tempered and he started drinking and smoking to lock himself. After Frank started to live in dark, he began to look forward to the costly life in New York so he arranged a special tour to New York City in the Thanksgiving weekend withCharlie.And Charles also met atrouble before he took the job. He faced with the dilemma of whether or not to tell the president who played a trick on him. If he told the president the fact that he knew, the president promised Charlie that he will be admitted by Harvard, if not, he will be expelled.This is very difficult for Charlie to choose.Charlie’s coming didn’t change Frank’s mind and he intended to commit suicide after enjoying the tour but finally he was saved by Charlie from the verge of death.And after this thing they developed a good relationship with each other. They are not blood, but they produced a wonderful relationship across the age, situation and experience’s obstacle.When they returned from the New York, Frank made a speechin Charlie’s school and persuade d the Disciplinary Committee not to expel Charlie .At the end, Charlie still did n’t tell who did this and he didn’t betray his friends.Frank was proud of him, the students from the same school also cheered up for him.Therefore we should remember the Colonel’s words: Person's life just a few decades. The most important thing is not to let their own and maintain a complete soul. Because of a broken leg missing arm is not the ugliest;the incompleteness ofthe soul is the ugliest!If you shed tears when you miss the sun, you also miss the stars. That’s what the Tagore said in Stray Birds. Frank loses his passion, so he decided to suicide. But at the same time, he also loses the opportunity of finding the beauty of life. When Frank went to visit his brother, the closest family member in the world,what he got is dislike from his nephew. What he did in the past is fight against everyone, even include his family. People couldn’t understand him, even hate him. Living for him is a kind of torture. But death is a way of moksa. When Frank back to hotel from his brother’s home,he feels lonely in his deep heart and he wants to die. We can’t live with beautiful thing all the time and we can’t be a lucky man forever,but there is always a reason keeps us go on.So d on’t lose thehope of life.And the film also tells us that we should maintain our principles.Faced withbig stress, whether we can choose the right path, the path made of principle is very important. Both characters in the film are asked to make life and death decisions that call for them to reach deep into their inner core. What you should do is to follow your heart and you heart will help you make the right choice.In this society, there are lots ofpeople choose to sell other people to buy their future. But you should stick to your own principles and never betray your own conscious. Never break your own baseline and just do whatever you can do to be yourself that’s enough.No matter what the life is tame or ferocious, we always need to make right choices and follow your heart. We may suffer different misfortunes in each of our stage, but we should be those who face up to the cruel world bravely instead of being negative. And death can never become an excuse to escape the difficulties of life. On the contrary,living need more courage than death.。
