Abstract
Film title, which is like the label of the film, can arouse the audience’s interest to see the film. A good film title can not only reflect the content of the film, but also make the room for the audience to imagine. It is not an easy task as we have thought it to be. It requires the translation be not only concise, brief, but also be faithful to the original text. Film titles should reflect the content and theme of the film, and help the film win a big box office. However, there are several different visions of translation of the same film title. There are still many problems in the translation of film titles, which deserves further researches.
The thesis connects the film title translation with the functions of film title together. It mainly discusses the domesticating strategy in the film title translation from the functions of film title. The thesis analyses the application of domestication in the film title translation based on the four functions which are aesthetic function, informative function, expressive function and vocative function. The informative function means the film title translation should reflect some information of the film. And it tells the audience a general view of the plot. The aesthetic function is to make the film title beautiful. Besides, it would let the audience feel the beauty of their own language. The expressive function mainly creates a special atmosphere for the audience to make them feel interested in the film. The vocative function is to arouse the audience desire to enjoy the film.
Key words: film title translation; domestication; aesthetic function; informative function; vocative function
