The Nutcracker, one of the worst films ever made with hip hop and Holocaust metaphors.

《The Nutcracker》，一部結合 hip hop 和猶太人大屠殺隱喻，史上最爛的電影之一。

And John Turturro as a rat in an Andy Warhol wig.

然後 John Turturro 演一隻戴著安迪·沃荷假髮的老鼠。

I know this sounds like it's fun bad, but, no, it's just terrible.

我知道聽起來好像是那種「爛得很有趣」的片，但，不是，它就是爛透了。

I'm Alonzo Duraldi, and I'm a Tomatometer approved critic.

我是 Alonzo Duraldi，一位得到 Tomatometer 認證的影評人。

Today on critical thinking, we're talking about rotten holiday movies that I love.

今天在 critical thinking 節目，我們要聊聊那些我卻很愛的爛片。

author of have Yourself a Movie, Little Christmas, now available in a revised and updated new edition.

《have Yourself a Movie, Little Christmas》的作者，這本書現在有修訂增補新版。

I'm kind of an expert about Christmas movies, so the folks at Rotten Tomatoes asked me to take a look at the Tomatometer and pick movies that are currently branded rotten that I would deem fresh.

我算是聖誕電影的專家，所以爛番茄的人就請我看看 Tomatometer，挑一些現在被標記為爛片，但我卻覺得是好片的電影。

And then I said, yes, I'd be happy to do that, but

然後我說，好啊，我很樂意，但是

can I also pick some movies that are currently deemed fresh that I would call rotten?

我能不能也挑一些現在被認為是好片，但我卻會說是爛片的電影？

我一直都很喜歡聖誕電影，而且

I think that one of the cool things about Christmas movies is that whatever kind of film you like, it eventually butts up against Christmas one way or another.

我覺得聖誕電影很酷的一點就是，不管你喜歡哪種類型的電影，最終都會以某種方式跟聖誕節搭上邊。

So whether you like documentaries or musicals or slashers, there's a Christmas movie for you.

所以，無論你喜歡紀錄片、音樂劇還是砍殺片，總有一部聖誕電影適合你。

When I wrote this book in 2010, Christmas movies had not quite exploded to the place that they're at now.

我在 2010 年寫這本書的時候，聖誕電影還沒有像現在這樣爆炸性地流行。

But I find it fascinating to sort of dig into the many kinds of movies that can be a Christmas movie.

但我覺得深入探討各種能被歸類為聖誕電影的電影類型，這件事非常有趣。

And I also wanted to create a guide for people where, yes, of course you want to talk about Elf and Miracle on 34th street, but

而且我也想為大家創作出一個指南，裡面當然會提到《聖誕精靈》和《34 街的奇蹟》，但

there's a case to be made that, you know, Eyes Wide Shut and Metropolitan and Gremlins are also Christmas movies, and

同時也能論證，你知道的，《大開眼戒》、《大都會》和《小精靈》也都是聖誕電影，而且

if you enjoy them at Christmas time, more power to you.

如果你在聖誕節期間喜歡看它們，那也沒什麼不好。

I've had people tell me, oh, well, you know, my family watches the Sound of Music every Christmas, and

有人告訴我，哦，你知道的，我家人每年聖誕節都會看《真善美》，而且

I'm like, okay, sure, knock yourself out.

我就說，好的，沒問題，隨你喜歡。

And My Favorite Things has somehow become a carol because it mentions snowflakes and packages, I guess.

而《My Favorite Things》因為提到了雪花和禮物，不知怎麼地也變成了一首聖誕頌歌，我想。

《終極警探》是一部聖誕電影。

And I can't believe we're still having this nonsense argument.

我真不敢相信我們還在爭論這種沒意義的事。

I can't pick one favorite Christmas movie.

我選不出一齣最愛的聖誕電影。

But, you know, to quote Isaac Mizrahi, I'm an American and I'm not made of stone.

不過，你知道的，引用艾薩克·米茲拉喜的話，我是美國人，我不是石頭做的。

So of course I gotta go with It's a Wonderful Life.

所以我當然得選《生活多美好》。

It's a movie that tells you everything that you want to hear in a Christmas movie.

這部電影告訴你聖誕電影裡所有你想聽到的。

It's about the redemptive power of family and community.

這是關於家庭和社群的救贖力量。

It's about people finding their best selves.

這是關於人們找到最好的自己。

I've always said that George Bailey, Ebenezer Scrooge and Kevin McAllister all have the same character arc.

我一直說，喬治·貝利、艾比尼澤·史古治和凱文·麥卡利斯特都有著相同的角色弧線。

They get a glimpse at an alternate life and and they come to realize that they've got it pretty good after all.

他們瞥見了另一種人生，然後意識到其實他們的生活已經很不錯了。

Noelle stars Anna Kendrick as Santa's daughter.

《聖誕公主》由安娜·坎卓克飾演聖誕老人的女兒。

Her brother, played by Bill Hader, is all set to inherit the Santa empire, but

她的哥哥，由比爾·哈德飾演，準備接管聖誕老人的事業，但是

And it turns out that maybe Noelle is the one who would fit best into Santa's boots after all.

結果發現，也許諾艾兒才是最適合穿上聖誕老人靴子的人。

這部電影真的很有魅力又好笑。

It has one of the great sort of North Poles we've gotten in a Santa movie.

它有我們看過聖誕老人電影裡，最棒的北極場景之一。

And Anna Kendrick is just funny and fresh.

安娜·坎卓克就是又好笑又討喜。

她完全抓住了這個角色的精髓。

And it's a film that is loaded with lots of great supporting characters.

而且這部電影充滿了許多很棒的配角。

Julie Hegarty and Shirley MacLaine and Billy Eichner, just to name a few.

像是 Julie Hegarty、Shirley MacLaine 和 Billy Eichner，這只是其中幾位。

I think that Noelle deserves better than a rotten rating on the tomatometer.

我認為 Noelle 值得比爛番茄上的爛片評價更好。

It wound up going straight to Disney rather than theaters where it was originally intended to go.

最後直接在 Disney+ 上線，而不是原本計畫要在戲院上映。

And I don't know, maybe people might have taken it more seriously on the big screen.

我不知道，也許在大銀幕上大家會更認真看待它。

The first time Noelle does the Santa root by herself and makes a few mistakes along the way, but

Noelle 第一次獨自承擔聖誕老人的職責，過程中犯了一些錯誤，但

then ultimately figures out that she's got this.

It's one of my favorite Christmas movie moments, She says.

她說：「這是我最喜歡的聖誕電影時刻之一。」

I don't know that subdued is the word I would use to describe Noel.

我不知道「內斂」是不是我會用來形容 Noelle 的詞。

It takes some pretty big swings at the idea of the patriarchy of Santa Claus and just.

它對聖誕老人父權制的想法做了一些很大的嘗試，然後。

As a Christmas movie in general, I think it is trying things and more often than not, succeeding.

作為一部聖誕電影，我認為它試圖做出一些創新，而且大部分都成功了。

A lot of critics dismissed Unaccompanied Minors as a home alone rip off because it's about a group of resourceful children of divorce who find themselves snowed into a Midwest airport as they're being shuttled from one parent to another over the holiday season.

很多影評人認為《無人伴奏的童星》是《小鬼當家》的翻版，因為它講述一群足智多謀的離婚家庭小孩，在聖誕假期從一個家被送到另一個家時，因為大雪被困在中西部的一座機場。

But it's Paul Feig coming off of Freaks and Geeks a few years before Bridesmaids.

但這是 Paul Feig 在《伴娘我最大》幾年前的作品《怪胎與書呆》之後的作品。

And so the comedic shenanigans are funny.

所以這些喜劇性的鬧劇很有趣。

The cast is great, the kids are wonderful, including Tyler James Williams, who would go on to do Everybody Hates Chris in Abbott elementary and Brett Kelly from Bad Santa.

卡司很棒，孩子們也很棒，包括後來演了《人人都恨克里斯》和《小學愛 الكبير》的 Tyler James Williams，還有《惡棍特工》的 Brett Kelly。

And there's cameos from comedic heavyweights like Jessica Walter, Mindy Kaling, Rob Cordry, and

還有像 Jessica Walter、Mindy Kaling、Rob Cordry 等喜劇巨星的客串，

Terry Gar, playing a woman whose Christmas decorations are so aggressive, they actually frighten passersby.

以及飾演一位聖誕裝飾過於張揚，甚至嚇跑路人的 Terry Gar。

Yeah, I think it's more than a rehash of other movies.

對啊，我覺得它不只是在炒冷飯。

I mean, like I said, it is a post Home Alone film about kids getting the jump on adults, but

意思是，就像我說的，這是一部繼《小鬼當家》之後，關於小孩智取大人的電影，但是

I think it has its own voice and its own tone and.

我覺得它有自己的特色和自己的風格。

And it's a movie that I find really delightful.

這是一部讓我覺得非常開心的電影。

Granted, it also helps that when I saw Unaccompanied Minors, I still had never seen Home Alone.

當然，也有幫助，因為我第一次看《無人伴奏的未成年人》的時候，我還沒看過《小鬼當家》。

The best Christmas movies have a big sentimental ending, and this one doesn't disappoint.

最棒的聖誕電影都會有一個感人的結局，這部也不讓人失望。

The kids bring Christmas to all of these travelers who are stuck in this airport, and

孩子們為這些滯留在機場的旅客帶來了聖誕氣氛，而且

And for a movie that has mainly been about running around and slapstick wildness, it really delivers the heart of the movie.

對一部主要都在講跑來跑去和瘋狂鬧劇的電影來說，它真的傳達了電影的核心情感。

I would argue that especially when it comes to Christmas movies, cloying smarm is in the eye of the beholder.

我認為，尤其是在聖誕電影方面，過度的矯情見仁見智。

Because you go back and you read the reviews of movies like White Christmas or Christmas in Connecticut that we consider classics now, and

因為你回頭看看，讀讀像《White Christmas》或《Christmas in Connecticut》這些我們現在視為經典的電影的評論，

critics at the time thought they were, you know, sentimental hogwash.

當年的影評人認為它們是，你知道的，矯情的廢話。

And I would argue that come December, sentimental hogwash is kind of what we're in the market for.

而我認為，到了十二月，矯情的廢話正是我們想要的。

So if you found Love the Cooper Smarmy, I get it.

所以如果你覺得《Love the Cooper Smarmy》矯情，我明白。
