In recent years, more and more excellent domestic movies have gone abroad. And as one of the important carriers of cross-cultural communication, the subtitle translation of movies plays a particularly important role in this process. This article explores the subtitle translation strategy of the movie Five Hundred Miles from the perspective of interpretive theory. At present, most of the research on interpretive theory is applied in the field of interpretation, but the subtitle translation of film and television also have some similar characteristics as interpretation. Therefore, this article, with the guidance of interpretive theory, combining with the examples of subtitle translation in this film, analyzes the application of the theory in subtitle translation from three aspects: understanding the original language, detaching from the source language and re-expression, with a view to providing some reference for the practice of Chinese film subtitle translation.
