君主与父亲的双重身份让木法沙(Mufasa)不仅要教会辛巴(Simba)学会生存(to survive),更要教会他一个国王(king)所要具备的勇敢与责任。在儿子面前,他既是严师又是慈父,用自己的行动为辛巴树立榜样。木法沙深深地爱着儿子辛巴,不惜用自己的生命来挽救(to save)身处险境的儿子。虽然木法沙没能陪伴在辛巴身边看着他成长,但是他所教给辛巴的知识与道理却足以让辛巴受益终生。

(Mufasa thinks silently for a few moments, not looking at his son. Then, finally, he turns to him.)

Mufasa: Simba, Im very disappointed (失望的) in you.

Simba: (Very quietly and sadly) I know.

Mufasa: (Continuing) You could have been killed. You deliberately(存心,故意) disobeyed me. And whats worse, you put Nala in danger!

Simba:(Bordering on crying, voice cracks) I was just trying to be brave like you.

Mufasa: Im only brave when I have to be. Simba... being brave doesnt mean you go looking for trouble.

Simba: But youre not scared of anything.

Mufasa: I was today.

Simba: (Disbelieving) You were?

Mufasa: Yes... (bends down close to Simba) I thought I might lose you.

Simba: Oh. (Lightening slightly) I guess even kings get scared (害怕的), huh?

Mufasa: Mm-hmm.

Simba:(Whispering conspiratorially) But you know what?

Mufasa: (Whispering back) What?

Simba: I think those hyenas(鬣狗) were even scareder.

Mufasa: (Gently laugh) Because nobody can messes with your dad. Come here, you.

Finding Nemo 海底总动员

马林(Marlin)是海底世界里的小人物,没有人关注他。他总是过度紧张和谨慎。在他的生活中没有什么比儿子尼诺(Nemo)更重要(important)的了,所以当儿子被人类捕捞后,这个唯唯诺诺的小丑鱼爆发出惊人的勇气与毅力,在一连串的惊险过后,他终于迎来了与尼诺的相聚时刻。伟大(grandness)往往寓于平凡之中,就像这位父亲对孩子的爱。

Tad: Come on, Nemo. How far can you go?

Nemo: Uh, my dad says its not safe.

Marlin: Nemo, no!

Nemo: Dad?

Marlin: You were about to swim into open water!

Nemo: No, I wasnt out ... but dad!

Marlin: It was a good thing I was here. If I hadnt showed up, I dont know... Pearl: Sir, he wasnt gonna go.

Tad: Yeah, he was too afraid.

Nemo: No, I wasnt.

Marlin: This does not concern you, kids. And youre lucky I dont tell your parents you were out there. You know you cant swim well.

Nemo: I can swim fine, dad, okay?

Marlin: No, its not okay. You shouldnt be anywhere near here.

Okay, I was right.

Youll start schoolin a year or two.

Nemo: No, dad!

Just because youre scared of the ocean...

Marlin: Clearly, youre not ready.

And youre not coming back until you are. You think you can do these things but you just cant, Nemo!

Nemo: I hate you.

Brave Heart 勇敢的心

《勇敢的心》中的Malcolm 是一位智慧而勇敢的父亲。13世纪的苏格兰要脱离英格兰的高压统治,争取独立。Malcolm决定去为民族而战,而年幼的儿子William要随他同去。父亲对儿子的想法和举动并没有加以嘲笑或粗暴的否定,而是将儿子作为和自己并肩作战的战士平等对待。“I need you to stay here and look after the place for me while Im away.”父亲的那句“Its out wits that make us men.”虽短,却蕴含了深刻的道理,对William后来成为苏格兰的民族英雄起了巨大的作用。

Malcolm: Where do you think youre going?

William: Im going with you.

Malcolm: Oh, youre going with me, are you? And what are you going to do?

William: Im gonna help.

Malcolm: Hey, and a good help youd be, too. But I need you to stay here and look after the place for me while Im away.

William: I can fight!

Malcolm: I know. I know you can fight. But its out wits that make us men. See you tomorrow.
