这部百老汇传奇的音乐剧改编的电影对我来说，就是那一首歌。最早在完全不知道Rent的背景时，就是预告片里的这首歌吸引了我。在知道Rent的辉煌背景后，看完电影，感动我和留下深刻印象的还是开场的这首歌。电影开场，8个人站在舞台上，灯光打下，唱起这首Seasons of Love，我窝在黑暗影院的座位里，恍惚中好像他们就站在台上唱着。这首歌，我非常喜欢。
电影8个主角中有6个都找回1996年音乐剧首映时的original cast来演，虽然这会增加一些纪念意义而且这些演员确实演的都不错，但毕竟10年过去了，他们的年龄已经不符合角色的情境了。Rent无疑是一部优秀的音乐剧，改成电影确实不容易，这部电影也做的不太好，也许有些音乐剧就应该保留在舞台上。如果还能有机会，我会再看音乐剧的。故事背景大概可以用其中一首歌的名字来概括，La Vie Boheme (“the bohemian life”)。感兴趣的看wikipedia的介绍吧。
Seasons of Love
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes,
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Moments so dear.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights
In cups of coffee
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife.In five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure
A year in the life?How about love?
How about love?
How about love? Measure in loveSeasons of love. Seasons of love
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes!
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Journeys to plan.Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure the life
Of a woman or a man?In truths that she learned,
Or in times that he cried.
In bridges he burned,
Or the way that she died.It’s time now to sing out,
Tho’ the story never ends
Let’s celebrate
Remember a year in the life of friends
Remember the love!
Remember the love!
Seasons of love!Oh you got to got to Remember the love! remember the love,
You Measure in love know that love is a gift from up above Seasons of love.
Share love, give love spread love Measure measure you life in love.Seasons of Love – B
In diapers, report cards, in spoke wheels, in speeding tickets
In contracts, dollars, in funerals, in births.
In five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes –
how do you figure a last year on earth?
Figure in love
Figure in love
Figure in love. Measure love.
Seasons of love. Seasons of love.

现在这个时代什么都的低俗. 要听hip-pop。 要融入老黑的生活。 见面不说，哎，您吃了吗？ 要说，yo . wats up dog. 这样才是融入美国大家庭。最好还能来段rap。
