Eight Below
[edit] Background
The 1958 ill-fated Japanese expedition to Antarctica inspired the 1983 hit movie Nankyoku Monogatari. Eight Below is the fictional re-interpretation of the true events of the 1958 occurrence.
[edit] Plot
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
Jerry Shepherd (Paul Walker) is a guide at an Antarctica research base under contact with the National Science Foundation. UCLA professor, Dr. Davis McLaren (Bruce Greenwood) arrives at the base and presses Shepherd to take him to Mount Melbourne to attempt to find a rare meteorite from the planet Mercury. Shepherd does so against his own intuition, which tells him that it is too late in the season (January) to complete such a treacherous route. Worried about the snowmobiles breaking through the thinning ice or falling in a crevasse, Shepherd elects to use his dog sled team for the journey.
Shepherd and McLaren make it to Mount Melbourne but are immediately called back to base camp due to an approaching storm. McLaren begs for half a day to search for the meteorite and Shepherd agrees. McLaren finds the sample he is looking for and the team heads home.
Shepherd pauses to patch up one of the dogs (Old Jack) whose paw was bleeding. McLaren, while walking around to get a better radio connection with base, slides down an embankment when a soft ledge gives way. His landing at the bottom cracks the thin ice and McLaren ends up breaking through. Shepherd is able to get his lead dog Maya to get a rope to McLaren and the dog team pulls him from the water.
Now, battling hypothermia, frostbite and near whiteout conditions, it is the dogs' stamina and keen sense of direction that gets Shepherd and McClaren back to base. They are immediately evacuated, along with all other personnel due to the storm, which is expected to intensify. With too much weight in the plane to carry both people and dogs, the human team medically evacuates Shepherd and McLaren with a plan to return later for the dogs. The dogs are temporarily left behind, but the storm was worse than expected and it soon becomes apparent that no rescue will be attempted until the next spring.
The dogs must struggle for survival alone in the Antarctic wilderness until Shepherd eventually returns to rescue them, more than six months later. Six of the eight dogs survive. The two who die are Dewey and Old Jack with the six survivors being Buck, Max, Maya, Shadow, Shorty and Truman.
The turning point in the film is the moment when McLaren sees a drawing of the dog team by his young son, with the label: "My Hero is... THE DOGS WHO SAVED MY DADDY." This inspires the professor to realize the magnitude of his ingratitude and he uses his unused grant money to finance a rescue mission.
Then the professer says that he will take him to his dogs.
[edit] Sled dogs
Main article: Sled dog
In the 1958 event, fifteen Sakhalin Husky sled dogs were involved. In Eight Below, eight dogs were used -- two Alaskan Malamutes, Buck and Shadow, plus six Siberian Huskies. Many more dogs were needed to act out difficult scenes; each actor-dog had help from other dogs who performed stunts and pulled sleds. In all, 32 dogs were used to portray the film's eight canine characters.[1]
[edit] Buck
The spirited, red-headed Buck comes to life through the work of the cast's quickest learner Conan and Flapjack, a strapping six year-old, who is also the biggest dog on the movie weighing in at over 120 pounds. Conan and Flapjack performed both the acting and sledding for Buck.
[edit] Dewey
One of the close-knit twins in the pack, is portrayed by four-year-old Floyd, a veteran pro who, when not starring in movies such as Snow Dogs, is one of the regulars at the Universal Animal Show in Florida. His sledding double was two-year-old Ryan. Dewey can be told from Truman by a scar over his left eye, given to him by his aforementioned brother.
[edit] Maya
The strong and maternal Alpha leader of the pack is played by seven year-old Koda Bear, star of such films as Snow Dogs. She is known to her trainers as The Princess due to the fact that she has her own entourage and will not go anywhere without her special blanket. She was almost passed up for the part because the filmmakers originally wanted a white dog, but she won over the filmmakers and became one of Frank Marshall's favorites. Also starring as Maya is the equally beautiful seven-year-old Jasmine, who always gets very serious whenever she is playing a film role. Their sledding double was Kalista, herself a long time Alpha sled dog; like her character, she helped to keep all the other dogs out of trouble during the filming. She is also a Siberian Husky.
[edit] Max
The young sled-dog who starts out in the back of the pack but becomes a heroic leader in the course of the incredible adventures of Eight Below is played by six-year-old D.J., a playful, happy-go-lucky natural born movie star who previously starred in the canine hit Snow Dogs. D.J. impressed his trainers and director Frank Marshall with his uncanny improvisational skills and always brought an extra dash of drama to his scenes as Max. D.J's sledding double is one-year-old Timba, who was an on-set favorite due to an exceptionally cuddly nature.
[edit] Old Jack
The oldest dog in the pack, Old Jack is played by a relative youngster, four-year-old Apache. Apache developed a particular love of helicopter rides during the making of Eight Below. Old Jack's sledding work was performed by Buck, an all-white dog previously seen in Snow Dogs, who underwent a dye job to match Apache.Old Jack died right on the base where thier trainer lived and thier friends.
[edit] Shadow
Starring as the silvery, sleek Shadow are Noble, a three-year-old canine actor known for really getting into character, and four-year-old Troika, famous for her beautiful howling voice. Both did all the acting and all the sledding for their roles.
[edit] Shorty
The all-brawns-and-a-few-too-brains rebel dog, Shorty, is played by equally playful, all-white, three-year-old Jasper, who was especially excited to star in Eight Below because he quickly discovered snow is his favorite thing in the world. Jasper's sledding double was the tenacious Yukon, who never seemed to tire of pulling the sled.
[edit] Truman
Truman, Dewey's identical brother, is portrayed by three-year-old Sitka, whose favorite things in life include slices of Canadian Duck and frequent belly rubs. Her sledding and action double was five-year-old Chase, known to the trainers as the big goof ball. Chase graciously underwent a regular dye job to look more like Sitka.[2]

An international Antarctic youth expedition, Sky Odyssey for Russia's Glory, set three world records. The Russian Guinness Book has already registered them, RIA Novosti reports. There were children from all post-Soviet states in the team. The Russian word 'mir,' which means 'peace' in Russian, appeared on 6,000 sq m of the Antarctic snow. Mission members photographed the giant word with a digital camera, which they took on board a helicopter. The picture was uploaded in laptop and subsequently transmitted to the International Space Station via a communication satellite. Cosmonauts Salizhan Sharipov and Leroy Chiao sent the picture out all over the world, RIA Novosit reports.
The Antarctic expedition organized the world's first Olympic youth relay race in Antarctica to the distance of 2,012 meters distance symbolizing the year of the Summer Olympics, which Moscow is bidding to host. A plush penguin stood for the baton.
To celebrate the sports event, the kids made another inscription on the snow, 'Peace Moscow 2012,' on the territory of over 12,500 square meters.

片长: 未知
在人迹罕至的南极冰原上,科学考察站生存专家杰里和他的八条聪明强壮的雪橇犬将这一季最后一次行动——陪同麦克莱伦教授前往冰冻火山.但麦克莱伦教授在回程途中不幸受伤,需要立刻送回后方基地急救.而同时,一场空前的暴风雪也将到来,包括杰里在内的科考队成员们都必须乘小飞机迅速撤离.飞机的空间实在过于狭小,杰里不得不将与他相依为命的八条雪橇犬暂时留在南极冰原上
内容简介
为了搜寻一块坠落在南极岛上的神秘陨石,一支由三个科学家组成的探险队开始了他们的南极探险之旅.探险小组包括杰瑞·夏洛德(保罗·沃克),他最好的朋友库珀(贾森·比格斯)以及一个性格古怪的美国地质学家(布鲁斯·格林伍德).去南极考察探险,当然离不了在雪地上行走的特殊工具——雪橇,以及人们的忠实伙伴,雪橇犬.并且,这八条“精明能干”的雪橇犬都像他们的人类同伴一样,都各自拥有自己的头衔和称号:领头的“玛雅”、忠实的“矮子”、老实“老杰克”、力气大的“杜鲁门”以及奔跑速度极快的“影子”等等.
初登南极这块雪白冰雪覆盖的土地,探险队员们都被眼前美丽的景色所吸引,然而,他们却丝毫没有预想到,随着对极地的慢慢深入,更加恶劣的天气以及极为凶险的自然环境将带给他们越来越多的麻烦,甚至是对生存的极大挑战.果真,在乘着狗拉雪橇前进几日之后的他们遭遇了一场空前的暴风雪,温度自然也是急剧下降.队员们自然是对眼前的状况有些准备不足.其间,更加危险的一幕也“适时”地发生了——其中一名队员不慎踩破了薄冰,掉进了刺骨的冰水当中,还好有勇敢的雪橇犬相助,及时地将绳索送到落水队员手中,令队友将其拉出险境.然而,眼前这场突如其来的猛烈的暴风雪却真的无法躲避了.阻断了他们的前进之路不说,几个人的生命也收到严重的威胁.无奈之下,眼看风雪势越来越凶猛的队员们只能被迫放弃一路上帮助他们的伙伴——雪橇狗,让其各自逃命去吧.
被抛弃的雪橇狗们拼命脱绳索以从雪崩中逃生,为了生存下去,它们挣扎着互相依靠,共同抵御严寒积雪的同时,还要为了填饱肚子与身形庞大的海豹搏斗.此时的八条雪橇犬就像生死一线的好兄弟一般,相互支持着.探险队的一行三人终于安全返回了基地,但冰雪中雪橇狗们拼命前行的景象却一直缠绕着他们.终于,抵不过良心的谴责,三个人同时决定,无论冒着怎样的危险,都要将他们忠诚的伙伴们拯救出冰雪严寒.破冰船再次启动,直升机也隆隆作响,全地形车更是快速地在茫茫极地上奔驰着.坚强的雪橇犬们在冰天雪地中更是以超凡的毅力度过了漫长的时间,终于等来了人类朋友的营救.

拍摄背景及花絮
开始南极探险:一个真实而非凡的求生故事激发了《南极大冒险》的创作灵感
制片人大卫•霍伯曼
编剧达夫•.迪吉里奥
导演弗兰克•马歇尔
制片人大卫•霍伯曼多年前偶然看到了1983年出品的日本大片《南极物语》,那个表现孤立无援的雪橇犬以及人类伙伴不肯放弃他们的故事深深地感染了他.影片史诗般的故事情节及其令人震撼的永不言败的求生信念使之成为了当时票房最高的影片.他认为那个故事蕴含的主题应该让更多观众看到,于是他便构思了一部面向家庭的冒险片,场面不那么恐怖,而且更多地表现了友谊与生存之间那种不可或缺的感人关系.多年来他一直致力于推动这项拍摄计划,最后,终于有一位看过那部日本影片的迪士尼行政官和他有相同的想法,于是决定进行尝试.
青年编剧达夫•迪基里奥是迪士尼新编剧计划的成员,是一名酷爱野外活动的人,也是一名养犬人.他受命撰写该剧本的第一稿.
迪基里奥对一个世纪以来跌宕起伏的南极考察史进行了潜心研究并把这个故事搬到了1993年,那是允许雪橇犬在南极工作的最后一年(尽管多年以来它们是许多重大考察活动不可或缺的组成部分,但是为了避免南极海豹染上犬瘟热病,他们最终被禁止去南极).他根据在南极寻找具有百万年历史陨石的真实情节,为影片中的人类角色安排了一次科考任务,由此引出了故事中的四位核心人物.
迪基里奥还在影片中发挥了非同寻常的大胆想象:让八条讨人喜欢的雪橇犬也像他们的人类伙伴一样表现出友谊、忠诚和勇气,它们的表现成为了故事发展的重要线索.
好莱坞最富冒险精神的电影制作家弗兰克•马歇尔立刻就从心里喜欢上了这个故事,迪基里奥为《南极大冒险》编写的雄心勃勃的剧本幸好落到了他的手中,否则早就成为了一个永远无法搬上银幕的伟大创意.尽管马歇尔当时并不知道这是一个根据真实事件改编的剧本,但他却意识到这是一个令人激动并且具有典型意义的故事,它表现出了在最困难的时候使我们能够继续前进的勇气、友谊和牺牲精神.
当马歇尔了解了发生于1958年的那个日本科考队的真实故事以及那部与之相关的著名影片以后,他对这项拍摄计划变得更加热衷.他会见了日本影片《南极物语》的制片人Masaru Kakatani,听他讲述了采访原科考队员的激动人心的故事.他还找了好朋友苏珊•伯奇,伯奇是爱迪塔罗德世界杰出雪橇犬大赛的四届冠军得主,以便尽可能多地了解爱斯基摩雪橇犬的生活和心态以及他们在完成自己古老使命过程中所表现出的非凡能力.马歇尔从中学到了很多有关真实表现雪橇犬生活的知识,了解到了雪橇犬依靠集体力量得以生存的情况.
制作《南极大冒险》是导演马歇尔所经历的最大挑战.他曾经在撒哈拉沙漠深处拍摄过《夺宝奇兵》;在拍摄《生活》时曾被困在一万英尺高的冰川上.但他感到,这次拍摄的难度远远超过了上两次.但是让他充满信心的是拍摄《南极大冒险》的各种条件齐备:出类拔萃的演员,无与伦比的雪橇犬,不可多得的外景地,更有一个人与动物相互帮助,与困难抗争的难忘故事.
再现南极:《南极大冒险》的场面设计
▲了解南极
▲再现南极:三个外景地
[搭景]约翰•威利特——制作设计师
如何在人迹罕至的南极大陆搭建电影场景?——这是影片《南极大冒险》所面临的一大难关.
▲了解南极
南极是世界上最寒冷,最枯燥,风力最大的地方,处在地球的边缘,也就是我们这个星球的最南端.那是一个完全不同的原始地带,98%的土地覆盖着终年不化的厚厚积雪,另外的2%则是寸草不生的岩石.那里的自然条件十分恶劣,在历史上不曾有人类居住,所以它是地球上最后一块真正的处女地,只有海豹、企鹅等为数不多的生物以及少数人类探险家敢于光顾那里.
如今每年只有寥寥数千人生活在南极,其中绝大部分是执行科考任务的专家,他们在完全符合自然要求的实验室里进行着各种令人好奇的科学研究,其领域包括极端气候、极地冰盖、天体物理、异常适应的植物和动物生命、全球变暧、冰川、海洋科学以及气象现象.自从人类于19世纪首次登陆南极以来,一些最勇敢最坚定的探险家和科学家已经从全世界各地造访过这个大陆.
▲再现南极——3个外景地
在选景方面,导演请来了罗宾•蒙塞——山地安全方面的世界级专家,同时是冰川、雪景、水景以及边远地带方面的技术顾问.蒙塞在世界范围内寻找理想的拍摄王国,最终选定了3个外景地.
1、加拿大的斯麦瑟镇:高海拔的滑雪小镇,位于不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华以北750英里处.斯麦瑟镇座落在一个非常独特的桌面形小高原上,四面都是看不到树木的旷野,可以说是再现南极原野风貌的理想之地.影片主要场景拍摄地,包括美国和意大利科考基地的营地,冰冻火山和影片中小狗杜威摔下冰崖的场景.
2、丹麦的格陵兰岛:充满魔力的北方国度,到处都是冰川和海岸冰原.影片中最为壮观的自然场景就是在那里拍摄的.
3、不列颠哥伦比亚省斯图尔特:距离阿拉斯加海得尔边界不远,是影片中另外一些动人心魄的远景拍摄地.
▲搭建科考基地——制作设计师约翰•威利特
威利特对南极的一些实际科考基地做了深入研究,尤其是著名的美国麦克默多基地,夏天在那里工作的人数能达到上千人,在黑暗漫长的冬季也有250人留守.那个基地由宿舍、实验室和食堂构成,俨然是个村落,那里的居民由探险家和富于冒险精神的科学家构成,他们身体强健,个性鲜明,形成了自己独特的文化.
威利特说“我们要创造出尽可能真实的基地.那里的气候如此恶劣,我们搭建那些场景的目的就是告诉观众在那里生活和生存有多么不容易,甚至对建筑物来说也是如此.那是一种完全不同的环境,很像在月球上的感觉.”
在斯麦瑟镇拍摄不会像在南极拍摄那样艰苦,但同样也非常不容易.因为那里的天气会在10分钟内发生巨变,摄制组每天要准备好拍摄3种不同的场景,以便能够根据天气条件随机拍摄其中的任意一场.即使这样摄制组也必须在寒冷而潮湿的雪天拍摄,就连不让雪花落在镜头上都是非常困难的事,而且还要时常担心在乳白天空条件下的能见度问题以及回放问题,还包括布设电缆问题.
这部影片的绝大部分镜头在外景地拍摄,但是有少数镜头在外面拍摄过于危险.为了拍摄那些人和狗在冰冻的水下面临危险的关键镜头,约翰•威利特在一个大摄影棚里搭建了一堂景,被人们称之为“冰景”.搭建‘冰景’非常不容易,但是它对表现剧情至关重要.
搭建“冰景”,一方面再现格陵兰岛一带的冰冻峡湾,一方面还必须是一个能够操纵动画模型海豹并且供雪橇犬表演的地方.设计师威利特曾4次造访格陵兰岛,所以他知道那应该是什么样子,逼真地表现冰层是件令人头疼的事,光是制作不同的冰层就需要13道工序,包括透明的冰、河冰、雪冰和冰山上的冰.”
威利特总结道:“每当你有机会模仿自然时,都需要进行艰苦的创作.大自然不是那种可以随便拿来愚弄观众的东西.对于电影制作而言,表现岩石、树木、冰块和河流实际上是最大的挑战之一.”
奥斯卡特技美术奖获得者斯坦•温斯顿的团队应邀为雪橇犬和海豹大战场景制作生性顽强的动画模型海豹.弗兰克•马歇尔曾经与温斯顿共同创作过《侏罗纪公园》(Jurassic Park).动画模型海豹完成后需要涂上一层薄薄的花生酱,以便引诱雪橇犬攻击它.

雪撬犬:《南极大冒险》的八个核心角色
§雪撬犬的“海选”
▲入选资格:有自己独特的个性和相貌
有能力表现被困时的动作、勇气和情感
▲海选过程
为了挑选这些将会面对非凡挑战的狗明星,鸟类和动物公司(Birds & Animals)——好莱坞一流的动物驯养企业的负责人迈克•亚历山大四处寻访,以便找到一组绝顶聪明而且具有超凡魅力的雪撬犬.他主要通过一系列的临时试镜挑选他的演员阵容,参加试镜的有毛色光鲜的演艺犬,也有无家可归的流浪犬.这部影片使后者的命运发生了转机.亚历山大说:“我们寻找的雪橇犬必须相貌独特、个性鲜明、喜欢学习,不过对外形没有特别要求,所以我们最后选用了许多救生犬,结果证明在这个表现绝境求生的故事中,它们表现得相当出色.”
▲培训过程
拍摄现场通常会有十几条狗,这些“狗演员”(有的狗演员需要数条狗扮演)和它们的“狗替身”(有专门扮演拉雪撬的替身)要时刻为表演最复杂的感情戏做好准备.有时候在拍摄现场会乱成一锅粥,摄影机一边转动,八位驯养员一边为自己的狗下达不同的指令.下面就来看看这些雪撬犬是如何练就一身本领的:
[培训教练]动物训练组负责人迈克•亚历山大.他所担负的是对于拍摄这部影片来说要求最高的工作.亚历山大说:“我第一次读剧本时就在想,这种事让我们如何完成?它有太多的挑战,而且开拍以后还不知道有什么困难在等着我们.”
[培训场地]最初在加州.在影片开拍前3个月,为了适应寒冷和冰雪的环境,它们和20多名驯养员转移到了斯麦瑟镇附近一个大雪覆盖的乡下农场.
[基础培训项目]最初的训练涉及表达感情,如吠叫和龇牙,还有很多头部动作.
[技能培训项目]随着训练的深入,雪橇犬开始进行技能培训.包括从跃起追踪飞鸟(利用拖动拴在线绳上并填充了食物的玩具引诱它们)一直到在冰面上爬行,甚至还对它们进行忍受埋在雪堆中的训练.首先,教它们把身体蜷作一团并且按指令躺好,然后把少量雪撒到它们的身上,事后给它们以奖励.每做完一次都要再增加一些雪,直到让雪撬犬感觉埋在雪里非常舒服为止.
在影片中看起来最简单、最自然的动作反而是最难做到的.比如说让雪橇犬学会望着男演员保罗.雪橇犬和它们的驯养员相处时间很长,彼此非常和谐,所以它们自然会望着自己的驯养员.于是,一方面要培养演员和雪撬犬的真正感情,同时还要设法让驯养员在镜头外面让狗做动作,比如说“伸出爪子”,但却让雪橇犬的眼睛望着保罗.
拍摄时每条狗都有两名驯养员和它们一起工作.就连拉雪橇对于这些狗来说也是一种挑战,因为它们本能地会把雪橇拉出去很远,但是在影片中为了剧情需要却经常要求它们拉5英尺远便突然停下来.
训练过程中,这些雪橇犬在彼此相处中建立起了独特的关系,而这种社会等级制度却恰恰和影片中对角色的要求基本吻合.

◆ 关于哈士奇狗——西伯利亚哈士奇 (Siberian Husky)
一般拉雪橇的狗大都叫雪橇犬,如爱斯基摩犬(Eskimo Dog) 、阿拉斯加雪橇(Alaskan Malamute)等,但严格说来,最名符其实称雪橇犬的犬种当属此犬.
西伯利亚哈士奇原产于俄罗斯,是原始的古老犬种,名字的由来是源自哈士奇独特的嘶哑叫声.
在西伯利亚东北部的原始部落楚克奇族人,将此犬培育出来作为运输工具、引导驯鹿及守卫等工作.而且,能在西伯利亚恶劣的环境里工作.西伯利亚雪橇犬几个世纪以来,一直单独的生长在西伯利亚地区.20世纪初,被毛皮商人带至美国,一转眼此犬便成为举世闻名的拉雪橇竞赛之冠军犬.

The dogs take the biscuit in Eight Below,an enthralling fact-based tale of man's best friend struggling to survive a harsh Antarctic winter.Disney used to churn out dozens of real-life nature yarns like this,and Frank Marshall's adventure never misses a beat whenever it's dealing with his hairy husky heroes.Unfortunately,he insists on cross-cutting their furry frolics with a boring human subplot involving the terminally bland Paul Walker,pushing the running time up to a patience-testing two hours.
The brisk opening scenes capably sketch both the dogged determination and varying personalities of Walker's eight-strong sled-dog team,corralled in the first instance to drag a single-minded scientist (Bruce Greenwood) across the snowy wastes in search of a rare meteorite.Around the halfway point,however,a fierce storm forces Walker to abandon his plucky pooches,leaving them to face treacherous ice,hungry leopard seals and subzero temperatures while he raises funds for a rescue mission.
"A BRACING BLAST OF PUPPY POWER"
Resembling a canine spin on Marshall's 1993 Alive,Eight Below delivers a bracing blast of puppy power that helps dispel the lingering stink from Disney's 2002 Snow Dogs.The problem lies solely with its two-legged contingent,to whom scripter David DiGilio continually returns just when the canine capers are at their most exciting.Walker's simpering romance with pilot Moon Bloodgood gobbles up valuable screen time to little effect,while Jason Biggs merely irritates as a wisecracking cartographer.Gurning and griping for all he's worth,he's the only character here truly in need of a muzzle.

At sublime and beautiful but again crisis the South pole field ice of four Fus up, the special member in the science investigation station-eight sledge dogs obviously occupy an important position in the works, such as rescue and conveyance...etc., the other people probably would remind of them while need, but in the existence the eye in the expert hero, they are in his lifes can't the goods lack of a part, hero in this call they-"children"
The inside of the hero and his children accompanies a Lai Lun professor of Michael to go to keep volcano in deep freeze to look for meteorite, can come true for the sake of the dream for several years, the professor didn't listen to a hero an inside of persuade with base blizzard warning order that need to be withdrawn right away.The meteorite found out, but the professor is almost die in ice hole, in hero lead children to rescue a professor in calamity, they overcome heart of fear to send to the rope for the professor, counteract pull of dint, neglect the rope has already deeply sunk into flesh, regardless of sharp-edged of the ice point stab into the toe, end saved a professor of life.In the nature, the mankind are in fact very infinitesimal, although for conquer nature, the mankind are do unremitting effort, when vital of the evidence is gradually disappear in limitless snow ground glacier China Times, ignore is the pyramid of a meteorite still a bottom of sea which looks for Mars, everything again have what meaning?
In fact there is no the help of dog in very the investigation, work how open an exhibition, we hard imagination.But after being been heartless by the mankind to throw away, the dog dogs but is have no mankind to help under, depended on an oneself to uniquely bear dint and the courage stubborn independence to live in the hunger and the chill for 50 days, 100 dayses, 175 day ……
The mankind's helicopter more flies in the dog dogs stare at more far, there is no disappointment in their look in the eyeses and cut up rough, there is some Qi hope, morely still keep being the loyalty to the mankind.In fact in the realistic society of the cupidity in now smoked heart, the "loyalty" is difficult ability valuable, make it a rule to hear some to betray a friend and close relatives for the sake of the money at us of affair, but bite a bad furniture to the dog dogs and anywhere urinate can't is tolerant of to get into nasty fight, we why can't to oneself say:"It is honest to us at least".

早就期待一部真正描写狗狗情感的影片了,去年,看了《导盲犬小Q》,片中狗狗与盲者相互依存的情节着实让我感动了几天,但今天看了《南极大冒险》(又名《零下八度》)中狗狗们在没有人类帮助下依靠团结不懈的精神和自身顽强的毅力独立求生的故事却让我感到了深深的震撼.
在壮观美丽却又危机四伏的南极冰原上,科学考察站中的特殊成员——八只雪橇犬在救援、运输等工作中显然占据着重要的地位,别人或许在需要时才会想起它们,但在生存专家杰里的眼中,它们是他生命中不可货缺的一部分,杰里这样称乎它们—“孩子们”
杰里和他的孩子们陪同麦克莱伦教授前往冰冻火山寻找陨石,为了多年的梦想能够实现,教授没有听从杰里的劝说和基地暴风雪警告需马上撤回的命令.陨石找到了,教授却险些丧命于冰窟,杰里带领着孩子们将教授拯救于危难之中,它们克服着内心的恐惧为教授送去绳索,并用力的拉着,不顾绳索已深深陷入皮肉,不顾锐利的冰尖刺入脚趾,最终挽救了教授的生命.在自然中,人类其实是十分渺小的,虽然为了征服自然,人类在做着不懈的努力,但当生命的迹象渐渐消失于一望无际的雪地冰川中时,不管是寻找到火星的陨石还是海底的金字塔,一切又有什么意义呢?
其实,在极地考察中,没有狗的帮助,工作怎样开展,我们难以想象.而在被人类无情丢弃后,狗狗们却在没有人类帮助下,在饥饿和寒冷中依靠自身超凡的耐力和勇气顽强的独立生活了50天,100天,175天……
人类的直升机在狗狗们的凝望中越飞越远,它们的眼神中没有失望与愤怒,有一点祈盼,更多的依然是对人类的忠诚.其实在如今利欲熏心的现实社会中,“忠诚”是难能可贵的,在我们习惯于听到一些为了金钱背叛朋友与亲人的事情,而对狗狗们咬坏家具、随地拉尿不能容忍大打出手时,我们为什么不能对自己说:“至少它对我们是忠诚的”.
年老的迈克静静的躺在雪地中,拒绝追随伙伴们觅食的脚步,十年多与人类的朝夕相处,如今却是在茫茫白雪中孤单的离去,它没有挣脱绳索,或许是珍惜人类带给它的最后一份记忆吧.
长久的饥饿中,狗狗们变得步履蹒跚,对于同伴的死去,它们伤心的嚎叫,但却没有在饥饿的驱使下去啮噬同伴的尸体,而是对离去同伴更加长久的守候.面对着捕获的食物,它们下意识的舔着嘴,却没有争先恐后的去抢,而是谦让的等待首领的安排.这与那些为了一点小利就出卖朋友,落井下石的人类又如何能比?
迷路的迈克斯找到了同伴,为了食物,它们不顾危险对抗凶猛的海豹,集体的力量是强大的,在狗狗们群体的反击中,海豹丢下食物落荒而逃,狗狗们幸福的享用着收获来的丰盛午餐.
就这样,狗狗们在翘首祈盼中艰难着度过了一天又一天,对于每一声响动还是异常的敏感,它们在等待着人类实现他们的诺言.
抛弃了狗狗们杰里坐立不安,夜不能寐,一心想着回去营救他的孩子们,但杰里却只活在他的世界里,对于他为了救狗而返回基地的想法,大家当作是无稽之谈.
终于,在经费充足的情况下,人类踏上了返回基地救狗的路,狗狗们也终于在长久的等待中看到了熟悉的身影,兴奋的奔跑,长久的拥抱,幸福的场面不由使人潸然泪下.
看完影片回家的路上,朋友们很少说话,我知道大家的脑海中还在一遍遍过滤着影片中狗狗的每一个动作,每一张表情.影片的结局是好的,最终还是表现了人与狗之间纯朴的友谊.但在感动之余,我们难道不应该深深的反思吗?为什么同样是科考队中的成员,却要被无情的弃之于雪地冰原,交通切断、救援工具不够都只是借口,真正的原因只是人类对另一种生命的漠视.
在如今许多偷盗抢劫的大案小案不能侦破却要组织打狗队将狗打死至街头;为了满足部分畸形人群的心理需要,将虐猫虐狗做成片子,换取大把的金钱;为了一些科研成果拿小动物来做实验让它们饱受痛苦,我们人类在做这些事的同时为什么不自己想想,同在一个地球,为什么我们不能善待其他生命呢?难道只因为我们比它们智慧,比它们聪明到可以利用高科技犯罪、可以发明最尖端的武器然后组织战争自相残杀吗?
