You have no style or sense of fashion. I am not skinny or glamorous and I don’t know that much about fashion, but I’m smart. I learn fast and work very hard. 00:30:00 Andy没读过Runway杂志，也没听过Miranda，对于时尚也没什么概念，在刚开始的工作阶段，不是很顺利，所以这天米兰达把Andy叫到办公室进行了谈话： Anyway, you ended up disappointing me more than any of the other silly girls. I really did everything I could think of. Excuse me, where do you think you’re going? 谈话结束之后，Andy找她的好朋友诉苦； I don’t know what else I can do. Because if I do something right, it’s unacknowledged. She doesn’t even say thank you. But if I do something wrong, she is vicious. unacknowledged: 不被认可的 vicious: 凶残的，恶毒的 I would just like a little credit for the fact that I’m killing myself trying. You are not trying. You are whining. whine: 发牢骚 Don’t you know that you are working at the place that published some of the greatest artists of the century? And what they did, what they created was greater than art. This is a shining beacon of hope. beacon: 灯塔 Because this place where so many people would die to work, you only deign to work. deign: 屈尊 01:07:00 经过上次的谈话，Andy找到了工作的信心和方法，渐入佳境， 慢慢代替了第一助理Emily，得到了去法国的机会 Paris is the most important week of my entire year. I need the best possible team with me. That no longer includes Emily. If you don’t go, I’ll assume you’re not serious about your future. At Runway or any other publication. 1h37m 经过法国的经历，Andy慢慢看到自己内心的声音，她的上司Miranda认为，每个人都羡慕她们的工作，都想成为她们，但是Andy内心有着自己的想法。 But what if this isn’t what I want? I mean, what if I don’t wanna live the way you live? Don’t be ridiculous. Everybody wants this. Everybody wants to be us. 1h42m 最后Andy离开了Runway，在一家小的杂志社工作，找到了自己真正想要的生活。 Next thing you know, I got a fax from Miranda Priestly herself, saying of all the assistants she’s ever had, you were her biggest disappointment. And if I don’t hire you, I am an idiot. You must done something right. 真正好的生活，不一定是最奢华，最有名气，最光鲜，最靓丽。自己喜欢的才是最好的。愿大家也能找到自己享受的工作和生活。英文电影的学习也是一样的，找到自己喜欢的电影，喜欢的方法，我的分享起到的是引导的作用，大家可以用我分享的方法，也可以寻找自己的。当然，如果现在没有，就可以用我分享的。 更多学习内容关注：荔枝FM，布莱恩之声。
