第3139期:Hollywood funds pour into Black cinema

Ryan Coogler's 2018 superhero film Black Panther about a powerful African kingdom and its king was one of the highest grossing films of all time raking in 1.3 billion dollars internationally.

瑞恩·库格勒2018年执导的超级英雄电影《黑豹》，讲述了一个强大的非洲王国及其国王的故事，是史上票房最高的电影之一，全球票房收入达13亿美元。

The mega blockbuster with a predominantly black cast has prompted Hollywood to flood money on more black productions and TV series than ever before.

这部以黑人演员为主的超级大片，促使好莱坞投入比以往更多的资金来制作更多黑人题材的影视剧。

That woke everybody up and said, "Wow, there's money here".

这把所有人都惊着了，说道：“哇，这里有钱可赚”。

And suddenly, all of the black film makers who had ideas and passion and vision, suddenly now they had money, so they could actually make the movies that they wanted to make.

突然之间，所有那些怀揣创意、激情与远见的黑人电影制作人有了资金，这样他们就能制作出自己想拍的电影了。

Over the course of probably the last 10 years, we've seen a renaissance in black storytelling, like we haven't seen probably in the first, I don't know, 90 years of storytelling in our community.

在过去的十年里，我们见证了黑人叙事的复兴，这可能是我们这个群体在最初90年的叙事历程中未曾有过的景象。

Critically acclaimed black films such as Barry Jenkins's Oscar-winning drama Moonlight or Ava DuVernay's documentary 13th, have illuminated black life and offered cultural affirmation to black audiences, says Berardinelli.

贝拉迪内利表示，巴里·詹金斯执导的奥斯卡获奖剧情片《月光男孩》或艾娃·杜威纳执导的纪录片《第十三修正案》等广受好评的黑人题材电影，展现了黑人的生活，并为黑人观众提供了文化认同。
