Wolf Warriors 2 is hot, but a surprising documentary titled Twenty Two
arguably is hotter. Making its China debut this week, the movie featuring
now-elderly Chinese women who survived forced prostitution during the
Sino-Japanese War took in 15 million yuan (US$2.25 million) at the box office in
the first two days.
《戰狼2》暑期已經足夠火熱，但另一部紀錄片電影《二十二》卻令人驚訝的搶瞭《戰狼2》的風頭。這部電影於本周在中國首映，講述的是在中日戰爭期間的中國慰安婦。前兩天的票房收入達到1500萬元(約合225萬美元)。
Its attendance rate was even better than that of Wolf Warriors 2, the
best-ever Chinese movie in terms of box-office receipts, having beaten
Spiderman: Homecoming this summer.
它的上座率甚至比《戰狼2》更高，《戰狼2》是中國有史以來票房收入最高的電影，擊敗瞭今年暑期的《蜘蛛俠:英雄過來》。
The film Twenty Two was named after 22 surviving Chinese “comfort women”
who had been forced into prostitution by the Japanese army in World War II.
這部電影以二戰期間在日本軍隊被迫賣淫的22名幸存的中國“慰安婦”命名，。
The actual number of survivors is now down to eight, as the movie was held
by Chinese authorities for two years before finally making it on to the screen
in its home country (it made its international debut at the Busan Film Festival
in 2015). But the movie, the first Chinese film to honor comfort women, is
expected to surge at the box office after favorable comments from critics.
幸存者的實際人數現在降到瞭8人，因為這部電影在國內被當局控制瞭兩年之後才最終進入中國銀幕(2015年，它在釜山電影節上首次亮相)。但這部電影是中國首部向慰安婦致敬的電影，在受到影評人的好評之後，這部電影票房預計將繼續飆升。
Movie website Douban gave it a rating中古餐飲設備買賣 of 9.1 out of 10 because it triggers
national sentiments to pay a final tribute to these elderly women.
電影網站豆瓣的評分為9.1分(滿分為10分)，因為此部電影感染並帶動瞭全國群眾向這些老年女性致敬。
An estimated 200,000 Chinese women were forced into prostitution during the
Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945), and the survivors, now in their very last stages
of life, shared similar yet distinctive experiences.
在1937 -
1945年的中日戰爭期間，估計有20萬中國婦女被迫賣淫，當時的幸存者現在也已經處於生命的最後階段，他們彼此有著相似但又獨特的經歷。
The documentary is likely to strike a chord of nationalistic feelings among
Chinese who feel that war may once again be imminent because of the current
geopolitical situation.
這部紀錄片很可能觸動瞭中國人的民族主義情懷，他們認為，由於當前的地緣政治形勢，戰爭可能再次迫在眉睫。
It is hitting the screens around the same time as the Korean film The
Battleship Island, which depicts the story of 400 Korean slave laborers’ attempt
to escape from mining coal on Battleship Island (Hashima Island in Nagasaki
prefecture) during the Japanese colonial days.
此部電影與韓國電影《戰艦島》同一時間上映。《戰艦島》講述的是在日本殖民時期400名韓國苦工試圖逃離在戰艦島開采煤礦的故事。
The film, No 1 at the South Korean box office, also shows Korean women
being badly treated by Japanese soldiers, and urges Japan to honor its promise
to set up a sign before the end of this year stating that forced labor occurred
on the island.
這部電影在韓國票房榜上排名第一，其中也有韓國女性受到日本士兵虐待的畫面。韓方也敦促日本履行承諾，在今年年底前在島上設立一個標志，說明日本在島上曾發生過強迫勞動事件。
Both movies come as a reminder of the 72nd anniversary of the Japanese
surrender on August 15, 1945, during World War II that put a stop to the
notorious Japanese Unit 731, which had been involved in biological and chemical
warfare and undertook lethal human experimentation.
這兩部電影都是為瞭紀念1945年8月15日日本投降72周年，以及對日本臭名昭著的731部隊的譴責，該部隊在二戰期間發起瞭生化戰爭，並進行瞭致命的人體實驗。
This week, Japanese television broadcaster NHK ran a three-episode
documentary about 12 members of Unit 731 in an oral hist台中二手廚具買賣ory of the rape and
human experimentation that was said to shock the Japanese audience because of
the rare admissi台中二手餐飲設備收購on of their guilt.
本周，日本電視廣播公司NHK播出瞭一部三集的紀錄片，片中12名731部隊的成員口述瞭當時強奸和人體實驗的事實。據說這部紀錄片令日本觀眾震驚，因為他們很少承認自己的罪行。
Also hot in the summer box office is the Hollywood production Dunkirk,
which portrays the evacuation of the famous French beach in World War II.
同樣熱門電影的是好萊塢制作的《敦刻爾克》，它描繪瞭二戰中著名的法國海灘撤離。
In addition to Wolf Warriors 2, a Chinese fictional movie about a former
soldier saving his peers during a political riot in Africa, the war movies have
conquered the summer box office usually dominated by Disney’s animated
films.
《戰狼2》是一部中國虛構電影，講述的是一名退伍軍人在非洲的一次政治暴亂中拯救同胞。除《戰狼2》以外，戰爭題材類電影征服瞭通常由迪斯尼動畫電影主導的夏季票房。
