向大家隆重推荐一部电视剧,HBO剧集《 Sex and The City》,港译《欲望城市》。
讲的是四个三十多岁的单身女人畅谈sex,生动有趣,世故又温馨。
四个女人聪明漂亮,职业高尚,思想活跃,伶牙俐齿,是天造地设旗鼓相当的谈话对手。
最精彩的是台词,精彩得不用发任何议论,给大家录一段先:
(主题词:为什么结了婚的女人视我们为洪水猛兽?)
Miranda Hobbes(以下简称Miranda,律师,爱一针见血):When someone gets married,all bets are off. They become married,and we become the enemy.
Samantha Jones(以下简称Samantha,公关经理,四人中惟一能像男人一样没心没肺享受sex的):Married women are threatened because we can have sex anytime,anywhere with anyone.
Carrie Bradshaw(以下简称Carrie,专栏作家,对爱情屡败屡战):We can?
Samantha:And they're afraid we're gonna have it anytime,anywhere with their husbands.
Charlotte York(以下简称Charlotte,在一间画廊工作,四人中对男女感情最乐观的一个):I'll never sleep with a married man.
Samantha(不以为然地):What makes you so sure you havn't?Wedding rings come off,you know.(你怎么敢保证这事你一定没做过?人家把戒指一脱,在你面前就变成未婚的了。)Face it,ladies. If you're still single, you're not to be trusted.(女士们,面对现实吧,单身女人一日未婚,一日不被人信任。)
Charlotte(略带天真地):Come on! Not all married women feel that way.(嘿!也不是每个结了婚的女人都像防贼似地防我们。)
Miranda(尖锐残酷地更正道):You're right, Not all.The one who don't fear you pity you.(你说得太对了,不是所有的,但凡是不怕我们的已婚女人,都同情我们。)? Charlotte(狡辩):That's not true!(不是这样的!)
Miranda(更加尖锐残酷地更正道):Are you telling me you haven't gotten those "poor single you" looks?(你不是在告诉我你从来没见过别人脸上对你使出“你这个可怜的光棍”的表情吧?)
Charlotte(像戮破的皮球):OK.Yes I have. I hate it when you're the only single person at a dinner and they all look at you like you're a --
Carrie(接):Looser.(失败者)
Miranda(快速地再接):Leper.(麻风病人)
Samantha(连珠炮似地又接):Whore!(妓女!)
Miranda(被搔到了痒处般大叫):Exactly!(说得太对了!就是这样!把我们当妓女!)
这场谈话的结尾是,Miranda扔出一句可以做报纸大字标题的口号:I'm telling you,married people are the enemy!(你们记住了,结了婚的人是我们的敌人!)
