阿基拉和拼字大赛的剧情介绍,自从五年前父亲去世后，阿基拉·安德森（柯克·帕尔莫 Keke Palmer 饰）慢慢成了“问题女孩”，她逃课，整蛊，总是和母亲坦娅（安吉拉·巴塞特 Angela Bassett 饰）做对，老师也拿她没办法。事实上，已经十一岁的阿基拉所作的一切都来自于她内心的孤独，加之对父亲的怀念，她开始沉溺于拼字游戏，并逐渐发现自己在这种游戏上的天赋。忙于养家、经常忽略阿基拉的母亲对此十分不解，认为她在不务正业、浪费时间，幸而阿基拉得到一位神秘教授（劳伦斯·费斯伯尼 Laurence Fishburne 饰）的支持，并在学校的拼字比赛中一路胜出，还顺利拿到参加全国拼字大赛的机会。天赋加上努力，在一场场拼字比赛中，阿基拉找到了自信和自我，并且遇到一个强劲对手——一个亚裔男孩，两人从互看不顺眼的竞争发展成惺惺相惜……

Eleven year-old Akeelah Anderson's life is not easy: her father is dead, her mom ignores her, her brother runs with the local gangbangers. She's smart, but her environment threatens to strangle her aspirations. Responding to a threat by her school's principal, Akeelah participates in a spelling bee to avoid detention for her many absences. Much to her surprise and embarrassment, she wins. Her principal asks her to seek coaching from an English professor named Dr. Larabee for the more prestigious regional bee. As the possibility of making it all the way to the Scripps National Spelling Bee looms, Akeelah could provide her community with someone to rally around and be proud of -- but only if she can overcome her insecurities and her distracting home life. She also must get past Dr. Larabee's demons, and a field of more experienced and privileged fellow spellers.

语录。该怎么教育孩子？。你终究要学会自己一个人。那些话。获得平静心境。梦想如何纯粹。这些和那些心情。当年我还在背单词。这样一个镜头在我脑海里挥之不去。几点遐想：拼字大赛背后的教育与社会。

豆瓣还是有很多人在央6上看电影的哈。记这句话：Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure。学单词去了又勾起了我对汉语不能随便造字的感慨……来自希腊语的英语词根没有f只有ph。不知道“为虾米”和“晃点”对应的是哪两个英文网络用语呢？还有“搅屎棍”是哪个词？有空找原版看看。CCTV-6开播之前梁文道罗嗦扯淡了一大通，亚裔父亲的刻画实在太刻板了。五星是给自己打的，呼呼。Deborah Cox - The Definition of Lovehttp://mp3.xialala.com/find/[07.04]Deborah%20Cox%20-%20The%20Definition%20of%20Love.mp3Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
