At 55, the director Danny Boyle already has a 30-year career behind him marked by audacity大膽 and imagination想像力. He started out in the theatre and TV then moved with success into the cinema: Trainspotting, Sunshine and the Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire are all his: it's notable顯著 that each is totally different. So when the London Olympics took on Danny Boyle to create this year's opening ceremony儀式 they knew to expect the unexpected驚喜的.
The traditional walk-through步行 of competing athletes will still happen but it'll be preceded 之前發生 by an hour's pageant盛會 called 'Green and Pleasant愉快地' which will be unlike anything seen at any Olympics. The set will transform the huge Olympic stadium into a recreation of the British countryside, with rolling meadows and a bucolic鄉村 village green. There'll be horses, cows, geese鵝 and three sheepdogs.
Danny Boyle says it will be the starting point of a definition of what modern Britain is, not just London. Danny Boyle says that four years ago Beijing was the highpoint of a certain type of ceremonial spectacle奇觀. What we see next month will be more inclusive廣泛 and warmer. As a director Danny Boyle has always shown a talent for avoiding the obvious so we can expect further更多 surprises to come.
