喜樂美語

Picture a dark hall with rows of seats all turned towards one big bright screen. That room is the first thing cinema names. From there the word stretches in two easy steps: first to the evening you spend in that room (going to the cinema), and then to everything that fills the screen — the films themselves, and the whole art and business of making them. Room, outing, art form: one bright in the dark holds all three.

可以想成一個暗暗的大廳，一排排座位全都朝著同一面發亮的大銀幕。cinema 最先指的比較像那個空間。從那裡，這個字很自然地往外長：先長成你在那個空間裡度過的那個晚上（go to the cinema 看電影），再長成銀幕上放的一切——影片本身，以及拍片這門藝術和這個行業。場所、活動、藝術，就像都是從黑暗中那塊發亮的長方形延伸出來的。

登入就可以看每一支怎麼連回核心畫面。
