It works well until Napoleon's escape ship is diverted to Antwerp and his imposter(冒名顶替的) gets drunk on delusions of grandeur. The twists are. as old as Aesop, and Holm has played the diminutive tyrant enough times to improvise his tics with impunity(不受惩罚).
But the period detail, so often a hollow distraction, is welded into the melodrama with quiet ingenuity. The image of Napoleon, trundling through the fields of Waterloo, the site of his 1815 humiliation and now a tacky jumble of souvenir stalls, is a bauble (小玩具)worthy of The Antiques Road Show.
Duly humbled by his lowly disguise, and forced to seek the kindness of shapely peasants—notably bly Hjejle' s fruit seller, Pumpkin--the toppled emperor is made painfully aware of the naked vanity of his own legend. Still, old habits die hard, and Napoleon's military campaign to keep Pumpkin off the gloomy corners of Paris and turn her ailing watermelon business into Tesco will make the iron shopkeepers of Grantham and Finchley blush with envy. The morals are as pungent as moth- balls; the sentiments spongy and sweet.
This is the inevitable fate of a film that has been carefully springcleaned for family consumption. The lopsided joy is Holm, and his touching, virtuoso turns as both Napoleon and his increasingly unruly imposter. Eugene abuses his spitting image to transform. his island prison into a fool's paradise. The "free" Napoleon realises that only a total lunatic could possibly aspire to be Bonaparte.
Under the Ucertificate flap that reads, "To tame a dictator, all you need is a good peasant and a warm fire", is a ghostly, and surprisingly adult, sense of pathos.
The Emperor's New Clothes introduced here is a feature movie ______.
A.well-based on historical facts
B.functioned story about Napoleon Bonaparte
C.describing the treacherous gap of French history
D.of costume drama
听力原文: Ludwig Van Beethoven was born in Bonn in 1770. Beethoven's first lessons for piano and violin were from his father. He also studied with Haydon. In 1792 Beethoven came to Vienna, where he decided to stay and try to make a career for himself. In summer months he liked to spend as much time as possible away from the bustle of Vienna. He enjoyed his stays in villages around the city. He liked the peaceful and simple life of the countryside. It was there that he composed both the Fifth and Sixth Symphonies.
Beethoven sympathized with republican ideas. He took great interest in the French Revolution and the birth of the French Republic. He admired its leader, Napoleon, and intended to dedicate his Third or Eroica Symphony to him. However when he was told that Napoleon had crowned himself emperor, the composer was disgusted and changed his mind.
As 1809 drew to its close, Beethoven produced several major works. In May 1809 Haydon died. There was no one to challenge Beethoven to be the musical king of Vienna. At the end of 1813, the Seventh Symphony was performed for the first time.
Beethoven's last years were marked by illness on the one hand and monumental masterpieces on the other. His deafness made it impossible to conduct his works or even perform. any more. Between 1819 and 1823 he composed his Ninth Symphony and some more piano sonatas. Those, together with the late string quartets, were the last works from this great man.
