Little Miss Sunshine《阳光小美女》(精讲之四)
影片对白
Sheryl: Richard, I was told explicitly not to leave Frank by himself. No offense, Frank. Frank: None taken. Richard: We're talking about it. You got Dwayne here. They can look after each other. Sheryl: No, Richard! That's asking too much. I mean, if something happened- Richard: We can't go, then, unless Dwayne and Frank go with us. Olive: Mom, where's my bathing suit? Frank: Right. Sheryl: Frank? Olive: I found it! Frank: Okay. Olive: I'm going! I'm going! I'm going! Sheryl: Oh, Dwayne, come on, please. Think of your sister. Richard: Come on, Dwayne. It'll be a lot of fun. You can go to the beach - Dwayne: (writing) This is unfair. All I ask is that you leave me alone. Sheryl: Dwayne, flight school. I will give you permission for flight school. Olive: I won! I won! I won! I'm gonna win this one too! Dwayne: (writing) But I'm not going to have any fun. Frank: Yeah, we're all with you on that one, Dwayne. Olive: Grandpa! Grandpa! Is Grandpa coming to California? Sheryl: We're all coming, honey. Richard: Hey, uh, hold on. Olive, come over here for a second. Come here. Sit down for a second. Look, there's no sense in entering a contest if you don't think you're gonna win. So do you think you can win Little Miss Sunshine? Sheryl: Richard- Richard: Are you gonna win? Olive: Yes! Richard: We're going to California. Frank: Good night, Dwayne. Dwayne: (writing) Please don't kill yourself tonight. Frank: Not on your watch. I wouldn't do that to you. Dwayne: (writing) Welcome to hell. Frank: Thank you, Dwayne. Coming from you, that means a lot. Good night. 妙语佳句,活学活用 1. No offense 意思是"不是故意要冒犯你",当你要提起某件对当事人来说有冒犯意味的事情时,最好要先说"no offense",或是"not to offend you",相当于事先道歉。我们在电影《哈利·波特与密室》中还见到过这样的说法:Not to be rude or anything, but this isn't a great time for me to have a house-elf in my bedroom. 2. Hold on 我们学过的hold on的意思有"坚持,抓紧",;例如: 在这个片段中,hold on 表示的是"等一下"的意思,相当于我们在《哈利·波特与密室》(精讲之一)中讲过的 hang on。 3. On one's watch 这里watch 的意思是"守护,注意"的意思,on your watch 就是"在你的守护下"。Watch 做动词时也可以用来表示同样的意思,例如: 文化面面观 Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche 尼采 电影中,Dwayne 因为尼采而缄口不言,这位哲学家又什么魅力呢?下面我们就来认识一下尼采。
思想火花 全家人终于决定一起陪Olive 去参加比赛:为了节省开支,爸爸勉强同意开车;为了防止Frank 再次轻生,妈妈坚持要带他一起去;爷爷坚持也要去,因为是他在"训练"Olive,沉默的哥哥虽然不屑参加这样的活动,但为了能考飞行学院还是答应去给妹妹鼓劲。而当大家都决定上路后,爸爸把Olive 来过来,问她有没有信心赢得比赛,本来是想女儿会说没有信心、就不必去了,没有想到的是女儿在爸爸"成功学"的影响下,坚信自己会赢。当爸爸拥抱女儿时那无奈的表情真是让人哭笑不得。 考考你 这段对白中有好几句话是用现在进行时表示将要发生(讨论)的事情,你能把它们全部找出来吗?答案下期见。 Little Miss Sunshine《阳光小美女》(精讲之三)考考你 参考答案 1) Richard: Finish your dinner! 把饭吃完了! 2) Sheryl: Where does that leave us? 那我们该怎么办? 3) Richard: What about Olive? Olive 怎么办? 4) Richard: You promised? 你答应了? 5) Richard: Don't start that. 别再提那个了。 |
