Abstract

With the development of globalization and the film industry, an increasing number of outstanding foreign films and television shows are becoming available in the Chinese market. As an Oscar-winning film, the subtitle translation and dubbing of Green Book meet high standards and are highly appreciated. From the perspective of the rhythmicity correspondence principle in film and television play translation, this paper analyzes and explores the translation quality of the subtitle translation texts and dubbing texts in Green Book, finding that there are still some optimization possibilities at the level of rhythmicity correspondence. The reference text guided by the principle of rhythmicity is also attached. The aim is to apply the "rhythmic unit of translation" in practice, enrich the relevant examples and arguments of this theory, and offer ideas and inspiration for future English-Chinese translation practices of outstanding Western films and television shows. Additionally, it aims to provide case materials for research related to the translation of films and television shows.
