At first, Andy fumbles with her job and fits in poorly with her catty coworkers, especially Miranda's senior assistant Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt).
During a dinner with her father who came to visit her in New York City, Miranda calls her: the airports in Florida where she is are all closed due to a hurricane but she needs to get home and orders Andy to get her home somehow.

When Miranda does arrive back at the office, she tells Andy she has disappointed her more than any other of her previous assistants…

She tells Benjamin that she finds him attractive and wants him to know that she is available to him. Mr. Robinson arrives home but neither sees nor suspects anything.

Through The Olive Trees 橄榄树下的情人
Hossein Rezai plays a local stonemason turned actor who, outside the film set, makes a marriage proposal to his leading lady, a student recently orphaned after the earthquake. The family of the girl finds his offer insulting however, as he is poor and illiterate, and the girl decides to evade him because of this. She continues evading him even when they are filming, as she seems to have trouble grasping the difference between her role and real life. The fictional couple takes part in what would be the filming of life, and nothing more....
The situation complicates further as Hossein still pursues the affections of the young actress while the film goes on. The director learns about this and tries to advise Hossein about what to do. He then illustrates their story and where the conflict began. The girl manages to finish the scene while Hossein woos her and then departs by walking as Hossein runs to follow her.
In a memorable scene, at a great distance, the girl finally gives an answer to Hossein and we are left with him running through a green field and back into the olive grove. The audience is left to wonder what response was given by the girl.

Dead Poets Society 死亡诗社
Neil Perry (Robert Sean Leonard), Todd Anderson (Ethan Hawke), Knox Overstreet (Josh Charles), Charlie Dalton (Gale Hansen), Richard Cameron (Dylan Kussman), Steven Meeks (Allelon Ruggiero), and Gerard Pitts (James Waterston) are senior students of the Welton Academy prep school, whose ethos is defined by the headmaster Gale Nolan (Norman Lloyd) as "tradition, honour, discipline and excellence". Both Neil and Todd are under harsh parental pressure to become a doctor and a lawyer respectively, but Todd wants to be a writer and Neil wants to be an actor.
The teaching methods of their new English teacher, John Keating (Robin Williams), are unorthodox by Welton standards, first exiting the class room whistling the 1812 Overture tune to lead the students down before the class photos of long since aged and passed alumnus to impress the youths with the importance of carpe diem or seize the day. He convinces the students must address him "O Captain! My Captain!" in reference to a Walt Whitman poem if they feel daring. In another class, after having Neil read aloud their poetry textbook introduction prescribing a mathematical formula to rate a poem's quality, he instructs his pupils to rip the introduction pages out, to the amazement of one of his colleagues...
威尔顿预备学院以其沉稳凝重的教学风格和较高的升学率闻名,其毕业班学生的理想就是升入名校。新学期文学老师约翰·基廷(罗宾·威廉姆斯)的到来如同一阵春风,一反传统名校的严肃刻板。基廷带学生们在校史楼内聆听死亡的声音,反思生的意义;让男生们在绿茵场上宣读自己的理想;鼓励学生站在课桌上,用新的视角俯瞰世界。老师自由发散式的哲学思维让学生内心产生强烈的共鸣,他们渐渐学会自己思考与求索,勇敢的追问人生的路途,甚至违反门禁,成立死亡诗社,在山洞里击节而歌!他的教育宛若春风化雨,润物无声的留在每个人心里…
推荐理由:罗宾·威廉姆斯会让你不由地想起和你一起抽烟喝酒,一起公然对抗学校,甚至一起偷鸡摸狗的辅导员老师。你那种不羁的少年意气和无因反叛,也许会在这部电影之后,化作嘴角的一抹微笑,在若干年后时时地悄然泛起。

推荐理由:人生是场赌博,谁也不知下个赌局是赢是输。阿甘懂得这个,所以他用爱和勇气成就了很多正常人也无法实现的精彩人生。又或者说,精彩与否并不重要,关键是我们曾经认真活过。智商75的阿甘懂得,毕业前夕,这些道理你懂得吗?

The film opens with a dream-like montage of the seven main characters, in full graduation uniform, walking along their campus, then quickly cuts to a hospital scene. Billy, while driving with Wendy, has crashed her car. Neither of them are seriously hurt, but her car is destroyed, and Billy is arrested for drunk driving. At the hospital, Kirby sees a medical student named Dale, with whom he has been infatuated since college.
