If you want some tender loving care

让你感受到温柔呵护的电影

Sometimes we all feel as if we’re children in need of some grown-up support, and who better to provide it than Baloo the Bear and Bagheera the Panther in The Jungle Book()? But if you’d rather have a human being to keep an eye on you, try the practically perfect nanny inMary Poppins(), Jason Statham’s jaw-breaking child-minder in Safe(), or Mr Lopez, the wise, patient and nurturing rural teacher in Nicolas Philibert’s heart-melting documentary,^Etre et Avoir(To Be and To Have) ().

有时候我们感觉自己就像需要成年人支持的小孩一样，在这个时候还有什么比年电影《森林王子》中的黑熊巴鲁和黑豹巴希拉更能让你内心安定的呢？如果你更想得到人类的看顾，你可以试试年电影《欢乐满人间》中的完美保姆，或是年电影《暂告安全》中杰森·斯坦森饰演的铁拳保育员，抑或是尼古拉斯·菲利伯特导演的年暖心纪录片《是和有》中明智、耐心、教导有方的乡村教师。

If you want to see the funny side

让你大笑的电影

What we need now is the best medicine, as spooned out by films which are devoted to one thing and one thing only: making us laugh. One of the finest is This is Spinal Tap(), Rob Reiner’s pitch-perfect mock-rock-documentary. Other films which turn the humour up to areDuck Soup(),The Return of the Pink Panther(),The Jerk(), Airplane!(),Borat(),What We Do In The Shadows() andPenguins of Madagascar().

我们现在需要的是最好的良药：让我们大笑的电影。这类影片中最出色的是年的《摇滚万万岁》——罗伯·莱纳导演的嘲讽摇滚乐的完美纪录片。其他“笑果”很好的电影有年的《鸭羹》、年的《粉红豹回归》、年的《大笨蛋》、年的《空前绝后满天飞》、年的《波拉特》、年的《吸血鬼生活》和年的《马达加斯加的企鹅》。

If you want to join a community

让你有社区归属感的电影

Mid-August Lunch() is a gently charming comedy about a hangdog -something who has to tend to his mother and three other elderly women in his small flat when everyone else has left Rome for the Ferragosto holiday. As light and slight as the film is, at just minutes long, it’s a vital reminder of how important it is to care for the older generation – and how important it is to nip down the street for a glass of wine with a friend. In short, it’s about belonging to a neighbourhood. For further evidence that it’s invaluable to be part of a local community, seeIt’s a Wonderful Life(),Amélie(),The Full Monty() and the Jane Austen adaptation of your choice. And, of course, you can savour the sight of Paddington’s neighbours standing up for him against Mr Curry inPaddington 2().

年电影《八月中旬的午餐》是一部温和迷人的喜剧片，讲述了一个多岁的小人物在其他人都离开罗马去过八月节时，只能留在自己的小公寓里照顾他的母亲和另外三位老年女性。这部云淡风轻的小电影只有分钟，却提醒了人们照顾老人是多么重要，还有出去和朋友喝一杯是多么重要。简而言之，这部电影的主题和社区归属感有关。如果你还想进一步了解融入社区的重要性，你可以看看年电影《生活多美好》、年电影《天使爱美丽》、年电影《光猪六壮士》，还有简·奥斯汀小说改编成的电影（具体哪一部随你挑）。当然，你也可以看看年电影《帕丁顿熊2》中帕丁顿的邻居们为了小熊挺身而出对抗库里先生的场面。

If you want to see light at the end of the tunnel

让你看到希望的电影

At the start of Pixar’s Wall-E(), Earth is a wasteland piled high with rubbish, and its lone inhabitant is a rusting robot. By the end, the human race has returned from its star cruisers, and crops are growing again. Good to know.

在年的皮克斯电影《机器人总动员》的开头，地球是一片垃圾堆成山的荒地，唯一的居民是一个生锈的机器人。在影片结尾，人类从星际巡航舰中归来，庄稼又重新长了起来。知道这个真好。
