青春雖不完美，但沒有失?。荒切┠甑淖窇?，如今都化作會心一笑(a smile of understanding)。近日，電影《那些年，我們一起追的女孩》在大陸上映引發熱議，影片感染著每一位觀眾，令他們憶起那些與青春有關的日子。

　　Boy meets girl at high school. They grow up and drift apart. Such are the elementary and timeless ingredients with which Taiwan novelist-turned-director Giddens Ko whips up the playful retro coming-of-age film You Are the Apple of My Eye。

　　男孩在上高中時遇見了女孩。他們共同成長，然后漸漸疏遠。正是有了這些最基本且永恒的主題元素，才使得臺灣作家九把刀轉型為導演后，迅速烹制出《那些年，我們一起追的女孩》這樣一部歡快有趣，回首青春成長的影片。

　　Based on Ko’s real-life romance novel The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years (same as the film’s Chinese title)， the film is guaranteed to be loved by those who have an appetite for a bit of juvenile fun。

　　這部改編自九把刀自傳式愛情小說《那些年，我們一起追的女孩》的電影一定會成為那些青春小品愛好者的青睞。

　　Newbie actor Ko Cheng-tung plays Ko Ching-teng, a teenage boy whose life revolves around hanging out with school buddies Boner, Cock, Groin and A-Ho–the bad boys of Ching-Cheng High in Changhua, central-west Taiwan。

　　新生代演員柯震東在劇中飾演柯景騰一角，片中的這位少年就讀于臺灣中西部彰化縣精誠中學，他的生活都是和同校好友，別人眼中的壞孩子勃起、老曹、該邊和阿和一起度過的。

　　They all have a crush on Shen Chia-yi (Michelle Chen)， an honor student in their class, who falls for Ko only。

　　他們都喜歡上了同班的好學生沈佳宜(由陳妍希飾演)，而沈卻只對柯景騰情有獨鐘。

　　Yet Ko, afraid of being rejected, cannot bring himself to ask Shen to be his girlfriend。

　　而柯景騰卻因為害怕被拒絕不敢鼓起勇氣向沈佳宜告白。

　　Their love continues after the two go to different colleges until one night, a big fight puts an end to their youthful romance. Several years later, Ko, now a writer, and his high school mates watch Shen walking down the aisle with another man, appearing as beautiful as they remember。

　　隨著升入不同的大學，他們的戀情仍在繼續；直到有一天晚上，兩人大吵一架后為這段青春戀曲畫下了句號。幾年之后，已經成為作家的柯景騰同高中的好友們一起見證了沈佳宜同另外一個男生步入婚姻殿堂，她看上去還是像他們記憶中那樣美。

　　With a well-selected cast and a brisk pace, Giddens Ko’s effort manages to keep up a high level of energy throughout the film and he captures adolescent urges with a fun, manga-esque punch。

　　精心挑選的演員班底再加上輕松愉快的節奏，導演九把刀成功使整部影片顯得活力十足，在他的鏡頭下，青春期的沖動具備一種日式漫畫般的幽默力量。

　　Also, the puppy love story would be less convincing if not for the two leading actors, who convey youthful innocence with effortlessness。

　　同時，如果不是片中兩位主演不遺余力的演出詮釋出了少年的天真懵懂，這個有關早戀的故事也不會這么令人信服。

　　The film is at its best when it reminds viewers of their adolescent years. The 33-year-old director has repeatedly said the film isn’t only about his own youth, but everyone’s。

　　這部電影最棒的地方便是讓觀眾們回憶起自己的青蔥歲月。這位現年33歲的導演曾不止一次地宣稱，這部影片不僅僅關乎自己的青春，還同所有人的青春都有關。

　　It might remind us of something silly or reckless we did at a young age. It might remind us that our youth isn’t all perfect – like Ko and Chen’s。

　　該片會讓我們想起自己年少時做的那些愚蠢、魯莽之事，提醒我們，每個人的青春都不是完美的，就像柯景騰和沈佳宜一樣。

　　But to the core, it reminds us that our youth, as imperfect as it can be, has made us the people we are today. And for that, we should smile a smile of understanding。

　　而全片精髓是在提醒我們，無論我們的青春究竟有多不完美，它都讓我們成為了今天的自己。所以從這個角度來講，我們應該給出會心一笑。
