摘　　要：《美国往事》是好莱坞电影的经典之作。影片以1929年至1933年的经济大萧条为背景,讲述四个街头少年的成长历程。故事从青年时代的阴谋与决裂开始,再回溯到少年时代的友谊和爱情,又延伸到老年时代的重逢与归途。整部影片虽然是以黑社会的争斗为主线,却充满人生的喟叹与感悟。极为出色的情感抒写和堪称完美的艺术传达,至今仍是电影史上不可逾越的一座巅峰。Once Upon a Time in America is a classic Hollywood movie.The film is set in the Great Recession of 1929-1933 and tells the growth process of four street teenagers.The story begins with the conspiracy and rupture in the youth,and then goes back to the friendship and love in the adolescence,and then extends to the reunion and homecoming in their old age.Although the whole film is based on the fighting in the gangdom,it is full of life’s feelings and insights.The extremely outstanding emotional expression and the perfect artistic interpretation make the film an insurmountable pinnacle in the history of film.
