There's a scene in the 2006 movie "The Devil Wears Prada" where Anne Hathaway's character, Andrea Sachs, gets a makeover that literally makes her better at her job. 2006年上映的电影《穿普拉达的女魔头》中有一个场景，安妮•海瑟薇扮演的安德莉亚•萨克斯因为精心打扮而改头换面，从而在工作上有了更出色的表现。 A trip to the fashion closet and the beauty department at Runway, the film's thinly veiled stand-in for Vogue magazine, transforms Andy from an ugly-duckling failure of a second assistant to the beautiful, capable confidante of the magazine's formidable editor, Miranda Priestly. 在电影中，安迪（安德莉亚的昵称）去了趟Runway公司的时装衣帽间和美容产品区，就摆脱了失败的丑小鸭形象，从一个二级助理变成了杂志社人人敬畏的米兰达•普利斯特利主编身边美丽、能干的贴身助手。电影中的Runway公司影射的是《Vogue》杂志社。 The scene is a pivotal moment in the plot — looking good is part of the job at a fashion magazine, after all — but it also nicely illustrates the real-life fact that when women in any profession spend more time on their appearances, it actually does cause people to take them more seriously. 这一幕场景是故事的转折点——毕竟，美丽的外表是在时尚杂志工作的一部分，但是它也恰好说明一个事实：在真实生活中，无论女人从事何种职业，如果她们多花一些时间打理外表，别人就会更认真地对待她们。 |
