Romantic comedies might provide 90 minutes of light-hearted fun but the happy-ever-after movies are also impacting people's real love lives, according to an Australian survey. A poll of 1,000 Australians found almost half said rom-coms with their inevitable happy endings have ruined their view of an ideal relationship. One in four Australians said they were now expected to know what their partner was thinking while one in five respondents said it made their partners expect gifts and flowers 'just because'. "It seems our love of rom-coms is turning us into a nation of "happy-ever-after addicts." Yet the warm and fuzzy feeling they provide can adversely influence our view of real relationships," said Australian relationship counselor, Gabrielle Morrissey. "Real relationships take work and true love requires more than fireworks." The survey was released by Warner Home Video to mark the movie "Valentine's Day" going to DVD. (Read by Lee Hannon.

澳大利亞一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示，浪漫喜劇片可能會(huì)給人們帶來(lái)90分鐘的輕松快樂(lè)，但這種“從此過(guò)上幸福生活的”大團(tuán)圓結(jié)局電影也會(huì)影響人們現(xiàn)實(shí)中的愛(ài)情生活。 這項(xiàng)對(duì)一千名澳大利亞人開(kāi)展的調(diào)查顯示，近一半的受訪(fǎng)者稱(chēng)，這些結(jié)局必然完滿(mǎn)的浪漫喜劇毀掉了他們對(duì)理想愛(ài)情的看法。 四分之一的受訪(fǎng)者稱(chēng)，自己被以為應(yīng)該知道伴侶在想什么，另有五分之一的受訪(fǎng)者稱(chēng)，這種影片讓他們的伴侶覺(jué)得自己應(yīng)該收到禮物和鮮花，“不需要什么理由”。 澳大利亞婚姻咨詢(xún)顧問(wèn)加布里埃爾?莫西里說(shuō)：“我們對(duì)浪漫喜劇的喜愛(ài)正把我們變成一個(gè)‘癡迷大團(tuán)圓結(jié)局’的國(guó)度，然而，我們從影片中感受到的那些溫馨浪漫的情感會(huì)對(duì)我們的現(xiàn)實(shí)愛(ài)情觀產(chǎn)生不好的影響。” “現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中的愛(ài)情需要經(jīng)營(yíng)，真愛(ài)遠(yuǎn)不是放放煙花那么簡(jiǎn)單。” 該調(diào)查由華納影業(yè)家庭娛樂(lè)公司發(fā)布，旨在慶祝電影《情人節(jié)》DVD影碟的發(fā)布。 相關(guān)閱讀 調(diào)查：英三分之一女性?huà)赍X(qián)比丈夫多 “七年之癢”容易過(guò) “十二年之癢”是難關(guān) （中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)網(wǎng)英語(yǔ)點(diǎn)津 Julie 編輯蔡姍姍） |
