Abstract

Films serve as carriers of culture, embodying local customs and traditions. In recent years, domestic films have performed remarkably well in the film market, achieving critical acclaim and box office success. An increasing number of domestic films are entering the international market, rapidly reshaping the landscape of world cinema. However, in this process of cross-cultural communication through film as a medium, subtitle translation plays a crucial role. Subtitle translation acts as a bridge for communication between countries, underscoring its significance in internationalizing domestic films. Therefore, based on the comprehensive theoretical framework of multimodal discourse analysis, this study takes the Chinese film The Battle at Lake Changjin as an example. The analysis of English subtitles in the film encompasses cultural, contextual, content, and expressive aspects. Its primary objectives are to offer insights into subtitle translation in domestic films and to inspire the global promotion of Chinese culture.
