[[i] 本帖最后由 Sylvia_scj 于 2008-4-13 05:54 PM 编辑 [/i]] [color=black][size=4][font=Times New Roman]“No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”[/font][/size][/color]
Nelson Mandela
[i] Long Walk to Freedom [/i]
Nelson Mandela
[font=Arial][size=3]Born in 1918 in the South African province of Umtata, Nelson Mandela was the son of a Thembu chief. He attended the University of Fort Hare from which he was expelled for participating in a student demonstration. He then went on to the University of Witwatersrand where he earned a law degree in 1942. In 1944 he joined the African National Congress (ANC).[/size][/font][font=Arial][size=3][/size][/font]
[font=Arial][size=3]When the National Party came to power in 1948, and Apartheid was implemented, Mandela and the ANC challenged the government's racial policy. In 1956 Mandela was arrested and tried for treason, but he was acquitted five years later. [/size][/font]
[font=Arial][size=3][/size][/font]
[font=Arial][size=3]After the Sharpeville Massacre in 1960, both the ANC and the Pan-Africanist Congress (PAC) were banned. Mandela gave up the ANC's strategy of non-violence and established the military organization, Umkhonto we Sizwe. In 1962 he was sentenced to five years of hard labour, and in 1963 he was charged with sabotage, treason and conspiracy along with other political leaders, resulting in a sentence of life imprisonment.[/size][/font]
[font=Arial][size=3][/size][/font]
[font=Arial][size=3]In 1990, after an unprecedented 27-year period in prison for political activism, President Frederik De Klerk lifted the ban on the ANC and released Mandela, who was elected president of the ANC one year later. Both men then led negotiations to put an end to Apartheid. They were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for this work in 1993. The following year, South Africa held its first free elections ever and [b]Nelson Mandela became president of the "rainbow nation"[/b]. He remained in office from 1994 to 1999.[/size][/font]
电影情节概述
[table=90%][tr][td][size=3]South Africa - 1968[/size][i][size=3]Twenty-five million blacks are ruled by a minority of four million whites under the brutal Apartheid regime of the Nationalist Party Government. Black people have no vote, no land rights, no rights to freedom of movement, to own a business, to housing or education. Determined to retain power, whites ban all black opposition organisations, forcing their leaders into exile or imprisoning them for life on Robben Island.[/size][/i]
[i][size=3][/size][/i]
[size=3]James Gregory, a typical white Afrikaner, regards blacks as sub-human. Having grown up on a farm in the Transkei, he learned to speak Xhosa at an early age. This makes him an ideal choice to become the warder in charge of Mandela and his comrades on Robben Island. After all, Gregory speaks their language and can spy on them. However, the plan backfires. Through Mandela's influence, Gregory's allegiance gradually shifts from the racist government to the struggle for a free South Africa.[/size]
[size=3][/size]
[size=3]Goodbye Bafana tracks the unlikely but profound relationship between these two men. Through their unique friendship, we witness not only Gregory's growing awareness of man's inhumanity to man, but South Africa's evolution from Apartheid to a vibrant democracy.[/size]
[size=3]The story, which documents how Mandela became the most inspirational political figure of the modern world, poses the questions: [b]Who is the prisoner? And who sets whom free?[/b][/size]
