向青春致敬：《同桌的你》还好吗？

About twenty years ago, Gao Xiaosong wrote the lyrics of the classic folk song My Old Classmate and touched millions of hearts. Now, as the producer of the new youth film of the same title, he is trying to do it again.

二十多年前，高晓松创作了校园经典民谣《同桌的你》的歌词，打动了无数人的心。如今，作为同名青春偶像电影的制片人，他力图再一次打动人心。

Starring Zhou Dongyu, 22, and Lin Gengxin, 26, My Old Classmate follows the pair’s life and love from middle school, when they are tablemates, through high school, college and beyond their graduation.

影片《同桌的你》由22岁的周冬雨和26岁的林更新主演，记录了男女主人公从中学同桌到高中、大学以及毕业后的生活及爱情经历。

Of course, a youth film wouldn’t be complete without paying homage to the time period it covers.

当然，一部完美的青春片少不了向青春岁月的致敬。

My Old Classmate certainly keeps that in mind. In the first half hour, audiences constantly encounter the symbolic items of the early 1990s, including pencil boxes and comic books.

《同桌的你》深谙此道。影片前半个小时，铅笔盒、漫画书等上世纪90年代初的标志性物品不断映入观众眼帘。

The film also mentions important events that took place during the period from 1993 to 2013, including China’s entry into the World Trade Organization, the terrorist attacks against the US on Sept 11, 2001, and the 2002 SARS outbreak in China. This attention to detail brings back memories and creates nostalgia, especially among those born in the 1980s.

影片中还涉及到一些发生于1993—2013年间的重大事件，其中包括中国加入世贸组织、美国“9•11”恐怖袭击事件，以及2002年席卷中国的非典。这些细节令人想起过往的岁月，引发了人们的怀旧情怀，尤其是对于80后而言更是如此。

Then there’s the main focus: the first love between Zhou and Lin’s characters. From secret crush, to courageous confession, to dating and lovers’ quarrels, the interaction between Zhou and Lin, who share a great onscreen chemistry, is fun to watch.

而该片的主旨则是发生在由周冬雨和林更新饰演的男女主角间的初恋故事。从暗恋到勇敢表白、从约会到恋人间的争吵，两位主角之间的默契互动在银幕上引发了一系列巧妙的化学反应，堪称一大看点。
