Abstract   Since the reform and opening-up in China, cultural exchanges have become increasingly extensive and frequent between China and foreign countries。 The film, an artistic form, has entered sino-foreign exchanges。 Thereby, the study of English film title translation is being carried out。 For a movie, the first part that the audience can see and read is the film’s title, thus, when the English film title translated, the film’s thought and theme has to be reflected precisely。 Meanwhile, the perfect combination of English culture and Chinese culture should be recreated by incorporating the characteristics of Chinese culture。 Only in this way can Chinese audience understand the cultural connotation expressed in the English film。 The cultural equivalence used in the translation of English film title is mainly discussed by applying comparative analysis in order to reveal the value and importance of cultural equivalence during the English film title translation in this thesis。 And under the guidance of cultural equivalence, translators also should make the functions of the translated Chinese title of English film correspond to the content of the English film title through reasonable application of translation approaches, so as to reproduce the culture reflected in the original film title successfully and fulfill the real cultural exchanges。 

Key words:  cultural equivalence; English film title; Chinese-English translation
