If you love reading books, you must know about
the book The Little Prince. It's a famous novel written by a
French writer. As one of the best-selling books in history, it has been sold as
many as 200 million copies in 253 languages and dialects(方言). Now, around seventy years after the birth of the book, an American
director has found a way to make it into a 3D animated film(动画片).
The book tells the story of a pilot, called
The Aviator, who crashes(撞击) into the desert and meets
a young prince there. However, in the film, the story starts years after the crash
when The Aviator is much older. He has got a new neighbor called The Little Girl,
whose mother wants her to get ready to enter the grown-up world. Slowly The Aviator
shares his story with The Little Girl by writing it down and sending her a page
at a time. The pages are complete with the pictures in the book, speaking about
his time in the desert and taking The Little Girl to an amazing world where anything
is possible.
China is the first country in the world to see
the film in two versions—in Chinese and English. The film
shows The Little Girl's
life and tells The Little Prince's
story at the same time in a beautiful way.
Huang Lei, who voices the film together with
his 9-year-old daughter, says the film is like a childhood dream which is lost by
most adults in this stressed-out society.
"The most touching part is that every one
of us was a good-natured kid like the Little
Prince, and it's
a pity that this good characteristic(品质) goes away
as time flies," he says.
