拜见岳父大人1

        要在好莱坞喜剧电影这片天地中闯出名堂，就必须想方设法花样翻新，创出自己的独门绝学。本•斯蒂勒的表演不像金•凯瑞那么张扬，他身材瘦小，总是一副郁郁不得志的压抑神情。他的脸活脱脱的就是一个受委屈的小媳妇，永远贴着“倒霉蛋”和“受气包”的标签。于是，当这个“小男人”遇到“狠角色”罗伯特•德尼罗时，他的“灾难”便注定要接二连三地降临。《拜见岳父大人》（2000）展现的就是这样的情景，影片让人领略到，婆媳之间的过招固然是不可理喻，翁婿之间的较量有时也是惊心动魄。
    斯蒂勒扮演的格雷鼓起勇气准备向心爱的女友求婚，但是浪漫的氛围被一个突如其来的电话搅乱。他必须先陪女友回家参加她妹妹的婚礼，顺便接受未来岳父的审核。还没踏入德尼罗的家门，在岳父大人强烈的气场辐射之下，他的一切就开始失控。在飞机场他装着钻戒的行李意外丢失，与龇牙咧嘴的空姐交涉也以他的失败告终。当他灰头土脸地来到女友位于纽约郊区的家，真正的麻烦才刚刚开始。
    在饭桌上，一向不善辞令的格雷为了博取两位老人的好感，不时地迸出几句幽默话，但结果都是适得其反，搞得气氛十分诡异。岳父大人看起来是个风度翩翩的园艺家，却对追求他女儿的人百般挑剔，总觉得没人配得上他心爱的大女儿。不仅如此，连那只宠物猫也对格雷充满着敌意。一连串既好气又好笑的事把格雷搞得手忙脚乱，霉运当头的他制造了一连串令人喷饭的糗事。
    影片最精彩之处是德尼罗与斯蒂勒两位主演之间迸发出的张力。德尼罗一向以饰演性格鲜明的黑帮人物而著称，他演起喜剧片来也毫不含糊。他扮演的岳父神情冷漠，喜怒不形于色，但具有非凡的控制力，轻而易举地将瑞格玩弄于股掌之中。这个冒失的未来女婿的一切都让他感到不爽，包括他的职业（护士），他的姓氏（“法克”），还有他的言谈举止。德尼罗真实的身份是一名中情局特工，因此甚至怀疑瑞格心怀不轨，给他戴上了测谎仪进行严刑拷问。
    斯蒂勒将这个看起来一无是处的男人演绎地十分传神。这个倒霉蛋也有暴发的时候，他在封闭的厕所里破口大骂，孰不知老爷子早就在厕所动了手脚，把他的行为看了个一清二楚。斯蒂勒小人得志的表情，配上一旁德尼罗想笑又尽力憋住的神情，让观众为之绝倒。他就是以这样一个小人物的形象，让人同情、惹人发笑，甚至放任观众幸灾乐祸。然而，小人物也有时来运转的一天，正是他的百折不挠和纯朴秉性，最终获得所有观众喜爱与认同。

The comic movie “Meet the Parents” is also a thought-provoking one. Instead of just keeping laughing and laughing, I think more about the main characters (Greg and Jack), prejudice, bias, the relations between children and parents, etc. Without a doubt, the comedy tries to tell us something serious in an easy way.

1. About Plot
This movie tells us a dramatic story of a couple of lovers and a visiting to the woman’s parents’ house in a humorous tone. The man whose name is Gaylord Greg Focker fell in love with the woman Pam Byrnes and he made up his mind to marry her. By listening to Pam and her sister’s phone call unintentionally, Greg realized that he should ask for her parents’ (especially her father’s) permission if he wants to marry her. So he prepared a lot for the visiting to her parents’ house.
However, Rome was not built in one day. Greg lost his parking which contained the rings for the propose to Pam during the flight to Pam’s parents’ home which led to the following series of bad consequences. It was clear that Pam’s father Jack didn’t like Greg at all. Greg’s profession is nurse, which lead to Jack’s prejudice; Greg did not like cats, which make Jack unhappy because he was fond of them; Jack even suspected that Greg took drugs just because he said something like ‘puff the magic dragon’ carelessly.
Fortunately, to meet viewers’ expectation, the film has a happy ending. At the end of the film, when Greg finally gave up and decided to leave, Pam’s father Jack was convinced and changed his attitude towards the lover of his daughter. Greg came to the family again and make the offer of marriage to Pam successfully.

2. About Gaylord Greg Focker
I share the same opinion with most of audiences that I like Greg very much. Although he seems to be a little bit stupid and slow in response, he is a truly reliable young guy as a husband as well as a son-in-law. This conclusion can be drawn from the scene in the movie that when Pam’s father made him promise to obey the rules so that he could be maintained in the trust circle, he just kept it in mind and followed it carefully.
What is the most important thing is that he loves Pam deeply, for he sacrificed a lot to try to gain appreciation from his future father-in-law. For instance, he got along as well as possible with the cat which he used to hate and received Jack’s polygraph test tamely (although it is unreasonable and impolite). Jack was very rude to Greg which we can observe from Jack’s behavior, like, he even did not allow Jack to use the toilet bowl. But Jack didn’t complain a word about these things because of his true love to Pam. What a frank and lovely man he is!

3. About Jack Byrnes
Besides Greg, I also have affection on the other main character Jack, the father of Pam. It is true that he is very rigid when judging his daughter’s boyfriend. However, I can tell that these were all resulted from his endless love towards his daughter. He fully prepared for a surprise for another daughter Deborah Byrnes’s wedding ceremony and cared a lot for Pam’s future life. He is like a mirror which reflects the depth of fathers’ love in the whole world. Jack also makes me think of my own father Simon who loves me very much. I am sure when I bring my boyfriend home one day in the future, he must be very picky too. Thinking about my father, I consider Jack a good father. I even feel pity for Jack for he would have to let his sweet daughter live with others in the future.

4. About Prejudice and Bias
In the movie, I am deeply impressed by the prejudice and bias in U.S. The social classes are divided clearly in U.S., which are the upper classes, the middle classes and the lower classes. The higher-class people have a prejudice against the lower-class people, which can be seen in many American films, novels and news reports. The only thing I dislike in the comedy is the obvious prejudice Jack showed to Greg. He thought that Greg was not a successful and industrious man because he was only a nurse; he invited Pam’s ex Kevin Rawley to home deliberately to make Jack embarrassed; he even investigated Jack’s background through CIA. I feel very sorry for this kind of bias which commonly exists all over the world, not only in China. I just wonder that why a person who earn money to make a living is prejudiced against just because his/her occupation is not ‘good’ enough ?

5. About Children and Parents
When talking about my opinion about the relationship between parents and their children, I’d like to talk about more my own experience and ideas. When I was living together with my parents, I always complain that they nearly controlled every aspect of my life and their rules almost extended to every corner of my own personal affairs. I was impatient about their suggestions or comments on my behaviors. However, as time goes by, as I grew up and apart my parents to attend the university, I miss them so much, even their strong controlling and rules. It is sort of weird, isn’t it? I finally know that it was a kind of true happiness when you have someone be around with you and care about you. So it is the love that combines our parents and us together firmly. Whatever they do and say is aimed to make us happy. Keep this in mind and cherish the time you are spending with your parents instead of regretting after losing them.

看到就满脸是“笑料”的Ben Stiller（看过他的Duplex/双层公寓）饰演男主角 Gaylord/Greg Focker，搞笑天分发挥的淋漓尽致； Robert De Niro（出租车司机、美国往事、Ronin/浪人[和让·雷诺Jean Reno和演]以及还没看过的《教父》）饰演名为花匠却实则刚刚退休的CIA岳父，他的转变，才给了他的女儿幸福，也给了他的老婆的。哦也。

第二部又有Dustin Hoffman（Rain Man/雨人）和Barbra Streisand的出演，一对在孩子教育上、生活方式上和Jack Byrnes有着截然不同的观念和主张的夫妇。再加上一个Ass------Hole的小baby，使得PART II比第一部精彩很多。看了都会很开心大。而且又都是喜欢的演员。棒。

以前小的时候总在家属大院里的电影院看电影，所以这是我小学第一次和爸爸在带空调的电影院看的电影，影片大部分内容已经记不清了，不过岳父的爱猫情结却影响我至深，猫是这个世界上最难屈服的宠物，比起顺服甚至愚忠的狗，猫更显灵性。所以我现在只养猫了。

说起养猫，据说养狗的都是缺爱，养猫的都是爱过甚无处发泄，所以养猫的，赶紧找个伴吧。
