影片对白  So the choice is yours, ladies. You can conform to what other people expect or you can--

3. Don't bother.

这是一个常用短句，意思是“别劳神，别费心，别麻烦”。大家可以学着用用：
1）Don't bother, I'll do them myself later. 别麻烦了，我一会自己做。
2）I didn't bother to have the car checked, a mistake for which I paid dearly. 当时我为了省事没有检查汽车，这一失误让我付出了惨重代价。
3）Mrs. Wilkes, don't bother about your husband. 维尔克斯太太，您不必为你的先生担心。

Vincent Van Gogh  文森特·梵·高

Van Gogh, Vincent (1853-1890), Dutch painter who exemplified the idea of the artist as tortured genius. His work represents the epitome of expressionism: color, line, and brush stroke are used to express the artist's emotional response to the subject rather than to describe it accurately.
凡·高，文森特是荷兰后印象主义派作家。他的早期作品，如《吃马铃暑的人》，用低沉、暗淡的色彩描绘了农民的生活。他的后期作品，包括许多自画像，一系列向日葵花的画，和《星夜》(1889年），以大胆的、有节奏的绘画技巧和鲜艳的颜色为特点。他与失落情绪长期斗争最终以自杀结束.
