At the same time, this study also focuses on the role of subtitle translation in cultural exchange and communication, and discusses how to promote the understanding and respect between different cultures through subtitle translation, and promote the exchange and integration of global cultures. Skopos theory based subtitle translation strategy has shown remarkable advantages in the translation practice of the film Green Book.
