电影史上最棒的三部曲TOP10：有你最爱的吗

 　　Making a satisfying collection of three films is something very few series achieve, because it requires exceptional story control, characters you’ll care about over many hours and many years, plus a writer/director’s ability to tie everything together without necessarily knowing the end of Part Three when they’re making the beginning of Part One. These, in my view, are the 10 trilogies that have done it best.

　　拍出一套令人满意的电影三部曲是一件很难实现的事情，因为它需要考虑到特别的故事情节把控、观影时或者是等续集的几年中都会受到关注的人物问题，再加上作者或导演能拍摄第一部并且不知道第三部电影结局的情况，还要将故事情节联系在一起的能力。以下这十部是我认为拍得非常优秀的电影三部曲。

　　电影史上最棒的三部曲TOP10：有你最爱的吗

　　1. Toy Story

　　《玩具总动员三部曲》

　　Every episode of the Toy Story series stands as a classic on its own. They enrich each other but each does not need the other parts to make it a full story. It is also perhaps unique inthe world of trilogies. It’s the best trilogy and it’s not even particularly close.

　　玩具总动员系列的每一集都是经典。他们彼此丰富但每个故事都不需要另两部来使它成为一个完整的故事。这在三部曲电影当中算是很特别的。虽然这三部电影的联系不是很紧密，也不妨它成为最棒的三部曲。

　　2. Three Colours Trilogy

　　《三色三部曲》

　　Krzysztof Kieslowski’s Three Colours Trilogy is made up of three completely independent movies, which only barely overlap¹, but investigating one theme, the three political ideals of France: liberty, egality and fraternity.

　　克日什托夫·基耶斯洛夫斯基的《三色》三部曲是由三个完全独立的电影组成，故事情节几乎不重叠，但都是同一个主题——法国三大政治理想：自由、平等、博爱。

　　3. The Lord of the Rings

　　《魔戒三部曲》

　　J.R.R. Tolkien’s enormous book series had for years been considered unfilmable, partly due to scale. And Peter Jackson had never taken on anything so huge. What he produced was a series that had an enormous sense of scale, really making Middle Earth feel like an entire planet, but never losing focus on character even when it spread its large cast over hundreds of miles. The only thing that keeps it from the top of the list is that the second film, while impeccably made, is very much a middle part, without its own satisfying conclusion. But that’s real nitpicking.

　　J.R.R. Tolkien的很多书多年来都一直被认为是很难拍摄成电影的，一部分原因是由于规模太恢宏。彼得·杰克逊从来没有拍摄过如此宏伟的场面。他所要导演的是有巨大的场面感，使中土觉得像是整个星球的电影，但他也从未忽视演员的安排，即使巨大的演员阵容有几百米长。唯一使它从列表排名第一掉落的是它的第二部电影，这是一个非常重要的中间部分，但没有完美地呈现出来，也没有得到自己满意的结果。但实话说，那其实是“鸡蛋里挑骨头”。

　　4.The Dollars Trilogy

　　《镖客三部曲》

　　Does it count as a trilogy when the three lead characters have different names, even if they’re all played by the same man, Clint Eastwood? Some would argue not, but they can make their own list.Leone’s camerawork and Ennio Morricone’s music are still copied routinely today.

　　当三位主角有不同的名字，但他们都是同一人所扮演。这样的电影能算是三部曲吗，克林特·伊斯特伍德？有人会说不算，但他们完全可以去看自己喜欢的。Leone的摄影和Ennio Morricone的音乐仍然流传至今。

　　5. Star Wars (original trilogy)

　　《星球大战》（原三部曲）

　　Good, great, fine is how the Star Wars trilogy runs. The first, mind-blowingly new in its day, doesn’t hold up all that well when measured against today’s best sci-fi pictures -- the plot is almost entirely² driven by luck -- but it will always be the father of the modern blockbuster and for that it deserves respect. The second is a much deeper film, playing with bigger themes. The third is OK if you like violent teddy bears and are really big on running through forests.

　　“好，棒，不错”是《星球大战》三部曲的走势。第一部，创意新颖，完全不输给当今最好的科幻片——情节几乎是靠运气，但它始终是现代大片之首和因此是值得被尊重的。第二部电影层次更深，主题也很大。如果你喜欢暴力的泰迪熊也喜欢奔跑着穿越森林的场面那第三部非常适合你。

　　6. Bourne

　　《谍影重重》系列

　　Despite the existence of The Bourne Legacy³ we can consider the three Matt Damon Bourne movies to be their own trilogy as they tell a complete story. Legacy is a spin-off. A terrible one.

　　尽管还有《伯恩的遗产》，但我们仍可以把Matt Damon Bourne的三部电影看做是三部曲，因为他们讲的是一个完整的故事。《伯恩的遗产》只能算是一部糟糕的衍生电影了。

　　7. The Apu Trilogy

　　《阿普三部曲》

　　The filmmakers’ favourite trilogy, Satyajit Ray’s films are lauded⁴ by Akira Kurosawa and Martin Scorsese, among others, and you don’t argue with giants like that. It’s not as grand as some of the other series on this list, following a man from youth in an Indian village to life as a man in the city, facing great fortune and even greater tragedy, but it’s not a story that needs scale because it’s huge on humanity.

　　作为电影制作人最喜欢的三部曲，萨蒂亚吉特·雷伊的电影都纷纷被黑泽明和马丁·斯科塞斯等赞美过，大家也非常认可他们的观点。这个系列的场面不像这份影单上其他系列电影一样宏伟，讲述的是一个青年从在一个印度村庄生活到在城市中生活的经历，面临着巨大的财富和更大的悲剧，但它不是一个大篇幅的故事，因为它在人性上承载了很多意义。

　　8. The Dark Knight⁵ Trilogy

　　《蝙蝠侠黑暗骑士三部曲》

　　There are those who really hate the final part of Christopher Nolan’s run in the Batman universe. That’s fine, I just happen not to agree with them. Nolan’s approach to Batman is the only superhero trilogy that has fully⁶ documented the career arc of a costumed crime-fighter,and feels like a contained story without the possibility of a fourth, which is what a trilogy should be.

　　有人真的很讨厌克里斯托弗·诺兰在蝙蝠侠宇宙出演的最后部分。这没关系，我只是不同意他们的观点。诺兰的蝙蝠侠是唯一一部超级英雄三部曲，这已经充分展现了一个身着异服的职业打击罪犯的英雄形象，看起来就像一个完整的故事，不太可能有第四部，当然这也是电影三部曲该有的样子。

　　9. The Godfather

　　《教父三部曲》

　　It’s a mark of how great the first two movies are that even with the flabby, graceless third part this is still one of the best trilogies. One fully lays out the Corleone family tree, while two goes down to its rotten roots while also stretching its branches further. Part three doesn’t feel of a piece with the others. It seems on the hunt for an ending to Michael Corleone’s story, rather than driven by a need to finish a story.

　　《教父》就是三部曲的典范。影片前两部很精彩，第三部虽然剧情松散粗俗也不会影响它成为最棒的三部曲之一。第一部完全展示了科莱昂家族树，而第二部深入了它腐烂的根部，同时进一步拉伸了它的枝条。第三部感觉和其他两部没什么关系。这似乎是在为迈克·柯里昂的故事寻找一个结局，而不是因为需要完结才被动地让它结束。

　　10. Back To The Future

　　《回到未来三部曲》

　　The first in the time travel series is unimprovable. A director enjoying himself so much with a perfect cast that the complicated plotting seems like the simplest thing in the world. Part two is fun as a take on what the future could be. Part three is a fun western that feels only very loosely connected to the previous two.

　　《回到未来三部曲》作为首个时间穿梭系列电影堪称完美。导演在一个完美的演员阵容里自我享受拍摄过程，以至于那些复杂的情节都看起来像是世界上最简单的事。第二部分讲述未来可能发生的有趣的事。第三部分是一部有趣的西部片，和之前两部的联系不太紧密。
