1965年西贡越战，死气沉沉的军方广播电台由于新DJ艾德里安·克绕劳尔（罗宾·威廉姆斯 Robin Williams饰）的到来，而突然变得生气勃勃。艾德里安每天以妙语如珠的风格主持早晨广播节目，幽默风趣。他的节目得到了士兵们的热烈欢迎。后来他还深入到了越南的民间生活，渐渐喜欢上了这个国家。然而他在节目中发表的跟军方宣传相抵触的言论，却使艾德里安遭到黯然下台的命运。 由知名奥斯卡获奖导演巴里·莱文森执导的影片《早安越南》，根据一位电台主持人当年在越南的亲身经历撰写而成。影片以黑色幽默的轻喜剧形式，来反映越战这场残酷的战争。影片更以多首六十年代经典的流行歌曲，唤起了观众深深的共鸣与怀旧情绪。罗宾·威廉斯凭借本片一举获得1988年第60届奥斯卡金像奖最佳男主角提名及1988年第45届金球奖电影类-音乐喜剧类最佳男主角等多项大奖。

In 2013, an Australian man a few months shy of turning 60 decided to walk the Camino de Santiago – an 800km pilgrimage trail across the top of Spain. He had no known religion, and absolutely no idea why he felt so deeply compelled to do this torturous walk.
But compelled, he was.
He completed the walk, battling a “triumvirate of pain” - a knee that he later discovered lacked any meaningful cartilage, a blister the sight of which would make a grown man weep, and shin-soreness that felt like his lower limb had been split with a mountain axe wielded by a demented troll.
Arriving at the end of the Camino, the majestic cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, he expected an epiphany – an answer to the question he’d been asking himself every day: Why am I doing this?
But no answer came.
So when he got home he wrote a book, hoping the answer would reveal itself in his scribblings. The result was The Way, My Way, a humourous and self-deprecating book that many consider the best memoir ever written on walking the Camino.
The book has now been made into a film, and it’s an extraordinary account of a man at a pivotal point in his life, searching for meaning and finding himself undergoing a fundamental transformation so profound that he now divides his life into “Before the Camino” and “After the Camino.”
It’s a story particular to one man, yet of appeal to anyone seeking a greater meaning from life.
