你们看到了吗？《光影周刊》发了一篇关于《晴川里》的长评，标题是“一条弄堂的温柔告别”。我一早就转给你们了，这篇文章写得颇有分量，在圈子里转得很快。

Nǐmen kàndào le ma? 《Guāngyǐng zhōukān》 fā le yì piān guānyú 《Qíngchuān Lǐ》 de chángpíng, biāotí shì “yì tiáo lòngtáng de wēnróu gàobié”. Wǒ yì zǎo jiù zhuǎngěi nǐmen le, zhè piān wénzhāng xiě de pō yǒu fènliang, zài quānzi li zhuǎn de hěn kuài.

Have you seen it? Light and Shadow Weekly has published a long review of Qingchuan Lane, titled "A Lane's Gentle Farewell." I forwarded it to you first thing this morning — it's quite a weighty piece, and it's spreading fast in film circles.

看到了，我从头到尾读了三遍。开头那段说：“这部片子堪称近年来最克制的城市纪录片之一，导演既没有煽情，也没有控诉。”我看到“克制”两个字，差点哭出来。

Kàndào le, wǒ cóngtóu dàowěi dú le sān biàn. Kāitóu nà duàn shuō: “Zhè bù piānzi kānchēng jìnnián lái zuì kèzhì de chéngshì jìlùpiàn zhī yī, dǎoyǎn jì méiyǒu shānqíng, yě méiyǒu kòngsù.” Wǒ kàndào “kèzhì” liǎng ge zì, chàdiǎn kū chūlai.

I have — I read it three times from start to finish. The opening says: "This film can fairly be called one of the most restrained urban documentaries of recent years; the director neither manipulates our feelings nor makes accusations." When I saw the word "restrained," I nearly cried.
