《四重唱》是一部喜劇電影，故事發(fā)生在一間專(zhuān)為歌劇退休演員開(kāi)放的養老院。養老院的明星居民維爾福、雷吉和茜茜每年通過(guò)他們的三重唱為養老院籌集資金。盡管養老院規模不大，但每個(gè)老人都能在那里找到快樂(lè )和安寧。然而，一位高傲又好斗的歌唱家簡(jiǎn)的到來(lái)打破了眾人的寧靜生活。簡(jiǎn)是歌劇界的名聲大噪，同時(shí)也是雷吉的前妻。由于生活所迫，簡(jiǎn)不得不住進(jìn)這間養老院，而雷吉的存在更讓她心中憤憤不平。隨著(zhù)簡(jiǎn)的加入，三重唱變成了四重唱。然而，排練的效果并沒(méi)有因為一個(gè)得力唱匠的加入而有所提高，反而引發(fā)了麻煩和爭執。四位老人之間的相處之道成為了故事的重點(diǎn)，他們通過(guò)音樂(lè )和互相理解，最終克服了困難，找到了和諧與團結?！端闹爻芬杂哪溨C的方式展現了老年人的活力和智慧，同時(shí)也探討了人際關(guān)系和團隊合作的重要性。這部電影給觀(guān)眾帶來(lái)了歡樂(lè )和感動(dòng)，讓人們重新認識到年齡無(wú)法阻擋夢(mèng)想和熱情的追求。

1. Cissy: Old age is not for sissies.
    膽小鬼是過(guò)不好晚年的。

2. Dr Cogan: I don’t know how many times I told you. Smoking kills. Put those out, please.
    Wilfred: Oh, for goodness sake. Give them a break. George is 78, Harry is 82. Suppose they were to stop smoking, how much longer are they going to live, a week? It would probably rain that weed, anyway.
    Dr Cogan: You are a bad influence, Wilfred.
    Wilfred: I think so.

3. Opera is, when a guy is stabbed in the back, instead of bleeding, he sings. But it seems to me, after much research, that rap is, when a guy is stabbed in the back, instead of bleeding, he talks, albeit rhythmically, even with feeling. But because rap is spoken, the feeling is sort of held in the check, all on one note.
    In opera, we sing what we’re feeling. And the song, the rise and fall of the music, sets our emotions free.
    If you ask me, I’d say to you that opera is simply the outpouring of all the emotions that all of us carry inside us.
(Reggie)

    我確實(shí)痛恨變老，每一秒都痛恨。

      Wilfred: What are you talking about, memory? Whose memory? Your fans? Your fans are dead! Gone, split bought the farm! Except the ones who’ve moved in here, and they’re just waiting to die. We’ve all aged. It’s crept up on all of us without us even noticing. I’m the same old Wilf I always was, thankfully, with a little bit of testosterone to keep me interested. Now, I’m gonna say something that’s a wee bit rude to you. Just fucking do it!
      你在說(shuō)什么，回憶嗎？誰(shuí)的回憶？你的歌迷的嗎？你的歌迷都死了！走的走，分的分,死的死。除了搬進(jìn)這里的人，而他們也只是在等死。我們都上年紀了，根本沒(méi)注意歲月爬到了身上。我還是那個(gè)老威爾弗，謝天謝地，還能分泌點(diǎn)睪丸素讓我有點(diǎn)激情。接下來(lái)我要說(shuō)的話(huà)對你來(lái)說(shuō)有點(diǎn)粗魯，你他媽只管去做就是了！

      親愛(ài)的，膽小鬼是過(guò)不好晚年的。
      Jean: No.
      沒(méi)錯。
      Reggie: Jean. Let go. What’s it matter now what anyone says or thinks? You might even enjoy it.
      簡(jiǎn)，看開(kāi)點(diǎn)。這把年紀了，別人的說(shuō)法想法還有什么關(guān)系？你說(shuō)不定會(huì )很開(kāi)心的。
