Abstract
With the diversification of information modals, language performs not only in a simple and unique form, but added the sound, image, animation, color and other modal forms. Film and television works communicate well in the use of language, auditory and visual modalities through a variety of ways such as language, image, sound and symbol. However, the previous study of film subtitles is confined to the language itself, ignoring the role of other modalities. Under the guidance of multimodal discourse analysis theory, this paper tries to discuss the subtitle translation in the film The Flowers of War, and puts forward some suggestions for the subtitle translation.
