各位或许没听过莎拉·席登特殊成就奖 The Sarah Siddons Award is perhaps unknown to you.
它并不像普利兹奖 It has been spared the sensational publicity
和电影协会每年所颁发的奖项 of such questionable honors as the Pulitzer Prize
那般众人皆知 and those awards presented annually by that film society.
这位杰出人士是一位古董级的老演员 The distinguished-looking gentleman is an extremely old actor.
身为演员的他将说几句话 Being an actor, he will go on speaking for some time.
他说什么并不重要 It is not important that you hear what he says.
重要的是 你知道自己身在何处 However, it is important that you know where you are
知道自己为何在此 and why you are here.
这里是莎拉·席登协会的餐厅 This is the dining hall of the Sarah Siddons Society.
今天是本协会的年度餐会 It is the annual banquet
同时会颁发舞台剧的最高荣誉 and presentation of the highest honor our theatre has:
莎拉·席登特殊成就奖 the Sarah Siddons Award for Distinguished Achievement.
这些庄严神圣的墙壁 These hallowed walls, indeed many of these faces,
见过茉杰丝卡 亚达·瑞汉和蜜妮·费丝凯等人 have looked upon Modjeska, Ada Rehan and Minnie Fiske.
而曼丝菲德的声音也曾回荡在这屋中 Mansfield's voice filled this room.
他死后 这些窗户就没被打开过 It is unlikely that the windows have been opened since his death.
各位可以见到次要的奖项 The minor awards, as you can see, have already been presented.
已颁给编剧和导演 Minor awards are for such as the writer and director,
因为他们的功能只是建构一座塔 since they merely construct a tower
让全世界能对塔上的灯光喝采鼓掌 so that the world can applaud a light which flashes on top of it.
但没有一道光芒 像夏娃·赫灵顿如此眩目耀眼 And no brighter light has ever dazzled the eye than Eve Harrington.
夏娃...待会儿会有更多有关夏娃的介绍 Eve... But more of Eve later.
事实上 话题是全绕在夏娃身上打转 All about Eve, in fact.
对于不看剧本 不看戏剧 To those who do not read,
不收听没有广告的广播节目 attend the theatre, listen to unsponsored radio programs
或是对你所住的世界根本不了解的你 or know anything of the world in which you live,
或许 我必须先做个自我介绍 it is perhaps necessary to introduce myself.
我叫艾迪森·达威特 My name is Addison DeWitt.
我以剧场为家 我并未辛苦耕耘和努力练舞 My native habitat is the theatre. In it, I toil not. Neither do I spin.
我是一个剧评家 I am a critic and commentator.
我是戏剧界不可或缺的一分子 I am essential to the theatre.
这位是凯伦·理查德 This is Karen Richards.
她的先生是一位剧作家 She is the wife of a playwright,
因此她是因婚姻才与剧场结缘 therefore of the theatre by marriage.
凭她的背景和教育 她根本不可能坐在 Nothing in her background should have brought her closer to the stage
观众席前排中的位置 than Row E.
然而她就读于拉德克利夫大学四年级时 However, during her senior year at Radcliffe,
上了洛伊·理查德所开的戏剧课 Lloyd Richards lectured on the drama.
隔年凯伦就成了理查德夫人 The following year Karen became Mrs. Lloyd Richards.
剧场制作人可分为两种 There are, in general, two types of theatrical producers.
一种是有不在乎赔钱的巨商富贾的朋友 One has a great many wealthy friends who will risk a tax- deductible loss.
这种人热爱戏剧艺术 This type is interested in art.
至于另一种人 他们的每一部作品 The other is one to whom each production
不是让他们倾家荡产 就是让他们赚进大把钞票 means potential ruin or fortune.
这种人志在赚钱 This type is out to make a buck.
这位是马克斯·费宾 Meet Max Fabian.
他所制作的戏剧 He is the producer of the play
让夏娃·赫灵顿 赢得莎拉·席登奖 which has won for Eve Harrington the Sarah Siddons Award.
玛格·钱宁是戏剧界的名伶 Margo Channing is a star of the theatre.
她在四岁时 就参加仲夏夜之梦的演出 She made her first stage appearance at the age of four
她在剧中扮演仙女 in Midsummer Night's Dream.
令人大感意外的是 她全身赤裸出场 She played a fairy and entered, quite unexpectedly, stark naked.
从此 她便平步青云 She has been a star ever since.
玛格是一位巨星 不折不扣的巨星 Margo is a great star. A true star.
她注定是戏剧界中一颗永远闪亮的巨星 She never was or will be anything less or anything else.
介绍过莎拉·席登协会的历史 Having covered in tedious detail not only the history of the Sarah Siddons Society,
和自泰斯庇斯 but also the history of acting
创始悲剧以来的历史之后 since Thespis first stepped out of the chorus line,
高德望重的主席终于要宣布我们今晚来此的目的 our distinguished chairman has finally arrived at our reason for being here.
我有幸能将一生奉献给戏剧 I have been proud and privileged to have spent my life in the theatre,
一位在舞台上度过一生的小演员 a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
40年来 我有幸能担任 and I've been honored to be, for 40 years,
莎拉·席登协会的主席 chief prompter of the Sarah Siddons Society.
我已将此奖颁给实至名归的得奖者39次 39 times have I placed in deserving hands
颁给他们这代表戏剧界最高荣誉的奖项 this highest honor the theatre knows.
的确 我是资格最老的演员 Surely no actor is older than I.
这个头衔我当之无愧 I've earned my place out of the sun.
今晚之前 我从未将此奖座颁给如此年轻的受奖者 And never before has this award gone to anyone younger than its recipient tonight.
以我这双老手颁给她最适当不过了 How fitting that it should pass from my hands to hers.
如此年轻的手 如此年轻的小姐 Such young hands. Such a young lady.
她的年纪虽小 但她的心就像戏剧一般亘古久远 Young in years, but whose heart is as old as the theatre.
我们有幸能认识她 Some of us are privileged to know her.
让她成名的 We have seen beyond the beauty and artistry
不仅是她的美和她的演技 that have made her name resound through the nation.
我们都知道她的谦逊 她的敬业 We know her humility, her devotion,
她对艺术的忠诚 her loyalty to her art,
她的爱 她对我们诚挚的爱 her love, her deep and abiding love for us,
因为我们从事的工作 戏剧 for what we are and what we do, the theatre.
她有一个愿望 She has had one wish,
一个祈求 一个梦想 one prayer, one dream,
那就是与我们同在 to belong to us.
今晚 她的梦想终于成真 Tonight her dream has come true,
因此 我们也应该和她怀有相同的梦想 and henceforth we shall dream the same of her.
各位贵宾 各位先生女士 现在我就将 Ladies and gentlemen, for distinguished achievement in the theatre,
莎拉·席登特殊成就奖颁给夏娃·赫灵顿小姐 the Sarah Siddons Award to Miss Eve Harrington.
好啊... Bravo!
太好了 夏娃 黄金女郎 封面女郎 Eve. Eve, the golden girl. The cover girl.
邻家女孩 麻雀变凤凰 平步青云 The girl next door, the girl on the moon. Time has been good to Eve.
好运连连 媒体争相报导她 Life goes where she goes. She's been profiled, covered, revealed, reported,
吃什么穿什么 认识什么人 what she eats and what she wears and whom she knows
和她过去的一切 and where she was and when and where she's going.
夏娃 Eve.
你们全都对夏娃了若指掌 You all know all about Eve.
还有什么你们不知道的吗？ What can there be to know that you don't know?
那是多久以前的事了？ When was it? How long?
感觉就像是上辈子的事 It seems a lifetime ago.
洛依总是说在戏剧界中 一季就是一生 Lloyd always said that in the theatre a lifetime was a season
一生就是一季 and a season a lifetime.
现在是六月 当时是十月初 It's June now. That was early October.
去年的十月初 Only last October.
一个细雨绵绵的夜晚 It was a drizzly night.
我记得我叫计程车司机等我 I remember I asked the taxi to wait.
她在哪儿？ Where was she?
真奇怪 我已习惯每晚在这里见到她 Strange. I'd become so accustomed to seeing her there night after night,
我发现自己正在寻找一位 I found myself looking for a girl
我从未和她交谈过的女孩 I'd never spoken to.
心想她到底在哪儿 Wondering where she was.
理查德太太 Mrs. Richards?
你终于出现了 There you are.
你突然没出现 感觉很奇怪 It seemed odd, suddenly, your not being here.
你怎么会认为我不会出现？ Why should you think I wouldn't be?
你为何还会出现？ Why should you be?
一周六晚 连续数周 Six nights a week for weeks
看着玛格·钱宁走进戏院 然后离开 of watching even Margo Channing enter and leave a theatre.
- 希望你不会介意我和你谈 - 不会的 - You don't mind my speaking to you? - Not at all.
我常看见你 我可是鼓足了勇气 I've seen you so often. It took every bit of courage I could raise.
只为了和剧作家的太太说话？ To speak to just a playwright's wife?
我位在上流社会的最底层 I'm the lowest form of celebrity.
你是玛格·钱宁最好的朋友 You're Margo Channing's best friend.
你们夫妇总是和她与山普森先生在一起 You and your husband are always with her and Mr. Sampson.
他是怎么样的人？ What's he like?
比尔·山普森？他是个导演 Bill Sampson? He's a director.
- 最好的导演 - 他会同意你的说法的 - He's the best. - He'll agree with you.
告诉我玛格进入戏院后 你都在做什么？ Tell me. What do you do in between the time Margo goes in and comes out?
只是躲在门口等？ Just huddle in that doorway and wait?
不是 我都会进去看戏 Oh, no. I see the play.
看戏？每一场都看？ You see the play? You've seen every performance of this play?
对 Yes.
不过 尽管戏好看 But don't you find it...
难道你没觉得相当昂贵吗？ Apart from everything else, don't you find it expensive?
站票并不太贵 我还凑得出来 Standing room doesn't cost much. I manage.
- 我带你去见玛格 - 不要 - I'm gonna take you to Margo. - Oh, no!
走吧 你一定得见见她 Oh, yes. She's got to meet you.
算了吧 我会打扰到她的 No, I'd be imposing on her.
我不过是个会激动得目瞪口呆的戏迷 I'd be just another tongue-tied fan.
这世上不会再有像你这样的戏迷了 There isn't another like you. There couldn't be.
下次吧 瞧我这副德性 If I'd known... Some other time. Looking like this.
你这样不错啊 对了 你叫什么名字？ You look just fine. By the way, what's your name?
夏娃 夏娃·赫灵顿 Eve. Eve Harrington.
- 晚安 葛斯 - 晚安 理查德太太 - Good evening, Gus. - Good evening, Mrs. Richards.
- 晚安 - 葛斯 晚安 - Good night. - Good night, Gus.
还能呼吸吧？ You can breathe it, can't you?
这里仿佛充满神奇的香水 Like some magic perfume.
在这儿等 别走开 Wait right here. Don't run away.
如果南方赢得战争 "If the South had won,
你可以为此方写同样的故事 you could write plays about the North."
- 嗨 - 好 - Hi. - Hello!
- 音乐会如何？- 很大声 - How's concert - Loud
你可能会说 我们不仅是饥渴 "We was more starved out, you might say.
这就是我不懂这些... That'a why I don't understand all these plays
有关求爱若渴的南方女性的戏剧 " about love-starved Southern women."
我们南方人从不缺乏爱 "Love is one thing we were never starved for in the South."
玛格接受了来自南方的女记者访问 Margo's interview with a reporter from the South.
访问登出后 势必会再度点燃南北战争 When it gets printed, they're gonna fire on Gettysburg again.
佛特桑特才是他们攻击的目标 It was Fort Sumter they fired on.
我没扮演过佛特桑特 I never played Fort Sumter.
他说的对 洛伊 当个勇敢的剧作家吧 Honeychild had a point. Lloyd, honey, be a playwright with guts.
为我写一出关于... Write me one about a nice,
一个良家妇女射杀丈夫的戏剧吧 normal woman who just shoots her husband.
- 你需要新的束腰 - 去买一些吧 - You need new girdles. - Buy some.
- 相同的尺寸？- 当然 - Same size? - Of course.
我发现这些哗众取宠的评论 愈来愈乏味了 I find these wisecracks increasingly less funny.
"林中岁月"是一部杰出的作品 Aged in Wood happens to be a fine play.
真是我忠贞不二的老婆 That's my loyal little woman.
如果剧评家这么认为 观众当然也这么认为 The critics thought so. The audiences think so.
万人空巷 票在数月前就被抢购一空 Packed houses, tickets four months in advance.
洛依的戏从未让你受到伤害 I can't see that Lloyd's plays have hurt you any.
- 亲爱的 别激动 - 放轻松 我这张嘴就是贱 - Easy now. - Relax, kid, it's just me and my big mouth.
有时你真的会把我逼疯 You get me so mad sometimes.
你是全天下最幸福的女人 Of all the women with nothing to complain about...
- 是吗？- 没错 - Ain't it the truth? - Yes, it is.
你才华洋溢 名利双收 You're talented, famous, wealthy.
总有人夜复一夜在外等侯 风雨无阻 People waiting around night after night just to see you. Even in the rain.
全是要签名的戏迷 Autograph fiends. They're not people.
他们不配当人 根本就是成群的郊狼 Little beasts that run around in packs like coyotes.
他们是你的戏迷 你的观众 They're your fans, your audience.
他们根本不是戏迷 They're nobody's fans.
他们是不良少年 神经病 They're juvenile delinquents.
他们根本不是戏迷 They're nobody's audience.
他们根本没看过戏剧或是电影 They never see a play or a movie.
他们在室内是坐不久的 They're never indoors long enough.
现在 门外就有一个 Well, there's one indoors right now.
- 我已带她来见你 - 什么？ - I've brought her back to see you. - You've what?
她正在门外 She's just outside the door.
撵她走 The heave-ho.
你不可以撵她走 我已答应过她 But you can't put her out. I promised.
玛格 你非见不可 Margo, you've got to see her.
她对你崇拜不已 She worships you.
你就像是魔法书一般使她着迷不已 It's like something out of a book.
那种书早已绝版 凯伦 那种日子早就过去了 That book is out of print. Those days are gone.
但只要你见她一面 But if you'd only see her.
你就是她生命的全部 You're her whole life.
你一定看过她 她总是在外面徘徊 You must have spotted her by now. She's always there.
身穿军用雨衣头戴小丑帽 鬼鬼祟祟的那一个 Oh, the mousy one with the trench coat and the funny hat.
我怎么会没见过 夜场和日场都能见到她 How could I miss her? Every night, every matinee.
进来吧 夏娃 Come in, Eve.
- 我以为你把我给忘了 - 怎么会呢 - I thought you'd forgotten about me. - Not at all.
玛格 她叫夏娃·赫灵顿 Margo, this is Eve Harrington.
- 幸会 - 天啊 - How do you do, my dear? - Oh, brother.
- 你好 钱宁小姐 - 我丈夫 - Hello, Miss Channing. - My husband.
- 你好 赫灵顿小姐 - 幸会 理查德先生 - Hello, Miss Harrington. - How do you do?
她是我的至友兼侍伴 伯蒂·科南小姐 And this is my dear friend and companion, Miss Birdie Coonan.
- 天啊 - 科南小姐 - Oh, brother. - Miss Coonan.
- 怎么了？- 她简直是判若两人 - Oh, brother, what? - When she gets like this,
她要扮演哈姆雷特的母亲 she starts playing Hamlet's mother.
伯蒂 我相信浴室的工作 你一定还没忙完 I'm sure you must have things to do in the bathroom, Birdie, dear.
就算已经做完我也会找事做 If I haven't, I'll find something
直到你恢复正常为止 till you get normal.
这伯蒂真是的 坐啊 霍灵顿小姐 Won't you sit down, Miss Worthington?
赫灵顿 Harrington.
- 抱歉 赫灵顿 坐 - 谢谢 - I'm so sorry. Won't you sit down? - Thank you.
想喝杯饮料吗？你身旁有一杯 Would you like a drink?
我刚告诉他们 你对他们的戏是多么捧场 I was saying how often you've seen the play.
不 谢了 No, thank you.
对 每一场我都看了 Yes, I've seen every performance.
每一场？你这么喜欢？ Every performance? Then am I safe in assuming you like it?
我喜欢钱宁小姐的一切 I'd like anything Miss Channing played in.
真的吗？真窝心 Would you really? How sweet.
我就不信你会喜欢披上猩猩皮的她 I doubt very much that you'd like her in The Hairy Ape.
理查德先生 您误会了 Please don't misunderstand me, Mr. Richards.
我发现钱宁小姐的过人之处在于挑选剧本 I think part of Miss Channing's greatness lies in her ability to pick the best plays.
她会出现在您的新品作中吧？ Your new play is for Miss Channing, isn't it?
当然 Of course it is.
媒体的评价如何？ How did you hear about it?
我喜欢时代日报所下的标题 There was an item in The Times.
"天花板上的脚印" I like the title, Footsteps on the Ceiling.
我们还是回到原来的话题吧 Yes, but let's get back to this one.
- 真的每一场你都看过吗？- 对 - Have you really seen every performance? - Yes.
为什么？我很好奇 Why? I'm curious.
不来看戏 我便无处可去 Well, if I didn't come to see the play, I wouldn't have anywhere else to go.
还有别的戏可以看啊 There are other plays.
没有你演出的戏我不看 Not with you in them.
不是理查德先生所导的戏我也不看 Not by Mr. Richards.
可是你一定有家人和朋友吧 But you must have friends, a home, family?
说来听听吧 夏娃 Tell us about it, Eve.
- 真不知该从何说起 - 试试看嘛 - If I only knew how. - Try.
从上一出戏开始说起吧 Well, it started with the play before this one.
- "回忆" - 回忆 - Remembrance. - Remembrance.
- 你是在纽约看的吗？- 旧金山 - Did you see it here in New York? - San Francisco.
那是上周的事了 有一晚我去看 It was the last week. I went one night.
那一夜就成了我生命中最重要的一夜 The most important night of my life,
直到今晚之前 until now.
我发现我每一晚都会去看 I found myself going the next night and the next and the next.
每一场表演 Every performance.
后来那场戏来到东岸演出 我也跟着来到东岸 Then, when the show went East, I went East.
夏娃 你为何不从头开始说 Eve, why don't you start at the beginning?
你们不会感兴趣的 Oh, it couldn't possibly interest you.
说嘛 Please.
从我的老家威斯康辛 开始说起吧 I guess it started back home. Wisconsin, that is.
我家只有爸妈和我三个人 It was just Mom and Dad and me.
我是家中的独生女 I was an only child.
我从小就喜欢表演 I used to make believe a lot when I was a kid.
什么都演 纯粹只是为了好玩 Acted out all sorts of things. What they were isn't important.
但后来表演逐渐占据我的生命 But, somehow, acting and make- believe began to fill up my life more and more.
我也逐渐分不清真实和虚幻 It got so I couldn't tell the real from the unreal.
只觉得虚幻比真实更真实 Except that the unreal seemed more real to me...
- 我在胡言乱语吧？- 一点也不会 - I'm talking a lot of gibberish, aren't I? - Not at all.
当时的农民生活贫困 家父就是一个农民 Farmers were poor in those days. That's what Dad was, a farmer.
我必须帮忙负担家计 I had to help out.
于是我中途辍学 前往密尔瓦基 So I quit school, went to Milwaukee,
在一家酿酒厂当秘书 became a secretary in a brewery.
做酿酒厂秘书后 我就很难 When you're a secretary in a brewery,
再假装自己是其他的一切 it's hard to make believe you're anything else.
啤酒就是我的一切 Everything is beer.
尽管工作乏味 但对贴补家用不无小补 It wasn't much fun, but it helped at home.
那儿有一个小型的剧团 And there was a little theatre group there,
就像是沙漠中的一滴露水 like a drop of rain on the desert.
我在那儿遇见了艾迪 That's where I met Eddie.
他是一位无线电技师 He was a radio technician.
我们合作演出三场 We played Liliom for three performances.
我的演技惨不忍赌 I was awful.
后来战争爆发 我们也结了婚 Then the war came and we got married.
艾迪投效空军 Eddie was in the air force.
军方将他送到南太平洋 They sent him to the South Pacific.
你在作战新闻处工作 对吧 理查德先生？ You were with the OWI, weren't you, Mr. Richards?
杂志是这么写的 That's what Who's Who says.
艾迪离开之后 我又整天与啤酒为伍 Well, with Eddie gone, my life went back to beer.
除了每天接到一封来信之外 Except for a letter a week.
他在一封信中提到 他就快放假了 One week he wrote me he had leave coming up.
我开始存钱准备休假 然后到旧金山找他 I'd saved my money and vacation time and went to San Francisco to meet him.
但艾迪并没有出现 But Eddie wasn't there.
我接到一封来自密尔瓦基的电报 They forwarded the telegram from Milwaukee.
一封自华盛顿转寄来的电报 The one that came from Washington.
上面说 艾迪回不来了 To say that Eddie wasn't coming at all.
他死了 That Eddie was dead.
因此 我便决定留在旧金山 I figured I'd stay in San Francisco.
我好孤独 没有艾迪同行我无法回去 I was alone. I couldn't go back without Eddie.
我找到一份工作 他的保险金也帮我度过难关 I found a job, and his insurance helped.
而且旧金山有不少剧院 And there were theatres in San Francisco.
玛格演出回忆的那一夜 And then, one night, Margo Channing came to play in Remembrance,
我去看了 and I went to see it.
然后我就在这儿了 Here I am.
太感人了 屋漏偏逢连夜雨 What a story. Everything but the bloodhounds snapping at her rear end.
伯蒂 有些人生经验是在剧院看不到的 There are some human experiences that do not take place in a vaudeville house!
这一点是连三流演员都应该了解的 And that even a fifth-rate vaudevillian should understand and respect.
- 我为伯蒂向你道歉 - 你无须为我道歉 - I want to apologize for Birdie. - You don't have to apologize for me.
抱歉 如果我伤了你的心 }I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings.
我这个人说话就是这样 It's just my way of talking.
科南小姐 你并未刺伤我的心 You didn't hurt my feelings, Miss Coonan.
叫我伯蒂就行了 Call me Birdie.
至于三流的演员 And as for being fifth-rate,
我曾当过11年的明星 这一点你是知道的 I closed the first half for eleven years, and you know it.
我的飞机再过47分便要起飞 而你呢？ 47 minutes from now my plane takes off and how do I find you?
- 根本像一座垃圾堆 - 多谢你的夸奖 - Not ready, looking like a junkyard. - Thank you so much.
你是故意的？ Is it sabotage?
难道你一点都不关心我的事业？ Have you no human consideration?
找个人来 或许我就会了 Show me a human and I might have.
飞机是不等人的 Airlines have clocks, even if you don't.
我从周一开始拍摄一周 I start shooting a week from Monday.
札纳克是很没耐心的 他需要我 Zanuck is impatient.
你开口闭口札纳克 难道他是你的爱人？ Zanuck, Zanuck! What are you two? Lovers?
就某些方面而言是 你漂亮多了 Only in some ways. You're prettier.
我只是一座垃圾堆 I'm a junkyard.
- 比尔 她叫夏娃·赫灵顿 - 你好 - Bill. This is Eve Harrington. - Hi.
我亲爱的垃圾堆 My wonderful junkyard.
你在垃圾堆中实现梦想 The mystery and dreams you find in a junkyard.
神啊 救救我吧 Heaven help me.
我爱上了一个神经病 I love a psychotic.
- 你叫什么名字？- 夏娃 夏娃·赫灵顿 - Hello. What's your name? - Eve Harrington.
- 你们已经见过面了 - 在哪儿？ - You've already met. - Huh? Where?
- 这里 刚才 - 那很好啊 - Right here, just a minute ago. - That's nice.
- 你要走了？- 我想我该走了 - You're not going, are you? - I think I'd better.
我难以表达我的感受 It's been... I can hardly find the words to say how it's been.
不 别走 No, don't go.
山普森先生要走 The four of you must have so much to say
你们四个一定有许多话要聊 to each other with Mr. Sampson leaving.
不 请你留下来 No, stick around, please.
这样吧 把这位天才送上飞机后 Tell you what. We'll put Stanislavsky on his plane,
我们再找个地方聊聊 then go somewhere and talk.
如果我不碍事的话 Well, if I'm not in the way...
我马上就好了 I won't be a minute.
洛伊 我们该走了 Lloyd, we've got to go.
晚安 玛格 Good night, Margo.
-- 明天再打电话给你 - 别太早打来 - I'll call you tomorrow. - Not too early.
- 天才 祝你幸运 - 天才是不需要靠运气的 不过我需要 - Good luck, genius. - Geniuses don't need good luck. I do.
- 我不会担心你的 - 那就别担心 - I'm not worried about you. - Keep the thought.
晚安 夏娃 希望很快就能再见到你 Good night, Eve. I hope I see you again soon.
明天我会来看日场的 I'll be at the old stand tomorrow matinee.
不只是来看戏 我们已经是朋友了 Not just that way. As a friend.
我会的 I'd like that.
夏娃 幸会了 It's been a real pleasure, Eve.
希望如此 晚安了 理查德先生 I hope so, Mr. Richards. Good night.
晚安 Good night.
理查德太太 Mrs. Richards?
我这辈子不会忘记今晚的 I'll never forget this night as long as I live.
也不会忘记 是你让我美梦成真 And I'll never forget you for making it possible.
夏娃 我也不会忘记你的 And I'll never forget you, Eve.
洛伊和我那一晚上哪儿去了？ Where were we going that night, Lloyd and I?
真奇怪 有些事令人难以忘怀 Funny, the things you remember
但有些事就是记不起来 and the things you don't.
- 你要去好莱坞 - 嗯哼 - So you're going to Hollywood? - Mm- hm.
- 为什么问？- 只是好奇 - Why? - I just wondered.
- 对什么感到好奇？- 为什么？ - Just wondered what? - Why?
- 什么？- 你为什么必须去那儿？ - Why what? - Why you have to go out there.
- 不是必须 是我自己要去的 - 为了钱？ - I don't have to. I want to. - Is it the money?
八成的收入都缴税了 80% of it'll go for taxes.
那么为什么？ Then why?
既然你是最成功的年轻剧场导演？ Why, if you're the most successful young director in the theatre...
剧场啊！剧场 The theatre. The theatre.
谁规定戏剧只能生存在 What rules say the theatre exists only within some ugly buildings
纽约的丑陋建筑之中 crowded into one square mile of New York City?
或是伦敦 巴黎和维也纳 Or London, Paris or Vienna?
孩子 多听多学吧 Listen, Junior, and learn.
知道戏剧是什么吗？马戏团 歌剧 Do you wanna know what the theatre is? A flea circus. Also opera.
骑术表演 嘉年华会 芭蕾舞 Also rodeos, carnivals, ballets,
印地安舞 滑稽木偶戏 单人乐队 这些都是戏剧 Indian tribal dances, Punch and Judy, a one-man band, all theatre.
只要有人演戏有人看戏的地方 就是剧场 Wherever there's magic and make-believe and an audience, there's theatre.

莎拉伯·恩哈德 普铎·汉尼佛 Sarah Bernhardt and Poodles Hanneford.
郎特 方汤尼 贝蒂盖伯 Lunt and Fontanne, Betty Grable.
野马雷克斯 伊莲诺拉杜丝 都是戏剧 Rex the Wild Horse, Eleonora Duse, all theatre.
你并不了解他们 也不喜欢他们 You don't understand them all. You don't like them all.
你没这个必要 Why should you?
戏剧应该是为人人而演 包括你在内而 The theatre's for everybody, you included,
不该曲高和寡 but not exclusively.
别急着表示同意或反对 So, don't approve or disapprove.
也许你不喜欢这出戏 }It may not be your theatre,
但一定总会有人喜欢 but it's theatre for somebody, somewhere.
我只是问了一个简单的问题 I just asked a simple question.
我该闭嘴了 And I shot my mouth off.
别介意 我不是针对你 Nothing personal, Junior. No offense.
只是有关戏剧的流言太多 It's just that there's so much bushwa in this ivory greenroom they call the theatre,
有时都快把我逼疯了 sometimes it gets up around my chin.
但你绝对不能待在好莱坞 But Hollywood. You mustn't stay out there.
- 我只是过去导一出戏 - 很多人都一去不回 - It's only a one-picture deal. - So few come back.
我每星期都会看戏剧评论 I read George Jean Nathan every week.
- 包括艾迪森杜威在内？- 每天 - Also Addison DeWitt. - Every day.
你无须告诉我 You didn't have to tell me.
我知道最近流行戴一个耳环 It's the latest thing, one earring.
如果最近不流行 将来一定会 If it isn't, it's going to be.
总之 我找不到另一个耳环 I can't find the other one.
把那封无聊的信扔掉 无聊透顶了 Throw that dreary letter away. It bores me.
- 你认为耳环会在哪儿？- 它会出现的 - Where do you suppose it could be? - It'll show up.
我放弃 假发里找看看吧 也许就在里面 Oh, I give up. Look in the wigs. Maybe it got caught in one.
假发里有钻石 这是什么世界啊 Real diamonds in a wig. The world we live in.
我的外套在哪儿？ Where's my coat?
这得看你把它放在哪儿了 Right where you left it.
丝袜 The seams.
他老是盯着我这双腿看 He can't take his eyes off my legs.
就像尼龙柠檬皮一般 Like a nylon lemon peel.
拜伦也想不出比这更高雅的话 Byron couldn't have said it more graciously.
走吧 Here we go.
有什么话？ Got any messages?
要我转达泰伦鲍尔？ What do you want me to tell Tyrone Power?
告诉他我的电话号码就行了 Just give him my phone number.
我自己会告诉他的 I'll tell him myself.
让他们见识你的厉害吧 Kill the people.
-钥匙带了没？- 家里见了 - You got your key? - See you at home.
我有一个建议 时间已经不多了 I have a suggestion. There's really not very much time left.
你们还没有时间独处 I mean, you haven't had a minute alone yet.
这里由我来收拾 And I could take care of everything here
我会带着机票到登机口与你们会合的 and meet you at the gate with the ticket,
如果你们不介意的话 if you'd like.
这样再好不过了 I think we'd like very much.
- 你不介意吗？- 当然不会 - Sure you won't mind? - Of course not.
这女孩不错 叫什么名字 She's quite a girl, this what sher name.
夏娃 我都忘了世上还有这样的人 Eve. I'd forgotten they grew that way.
不矫柔造作 坦率直接而且善解人意 That lack of pretense, that strange directness and understanding.
她没有说出她对戏剧的看法？ Did she tell you about the theatre and what it meant?
没有 说的人是我 No, I told her. I sounded off.
我讲了一大堆 万教归于一统 All the religions in the world rolled into one,
而你我是唯一的真神 and we're gods and goddesses.
可笑吧？我突然对她起了戒心 Isn't it silly? Suddenly I've developed a big, protective feeling toward her.
她是迷失在石头丛林中的羔羊 A lamb loose in our big, stone jungle.
自己在那儿保重了 Take care of yourself out there.
那儿的印地安人都被抓起来了 They have the Indians pretty well in hand.
比尔 Bill.
- 别四处拈花惹草 - 我会尽力的 - Don't get stuck on some glamour puss. - I'll try.
你已经是名草有主之人了 还这么不老实 You're not much of a bargain. You're conceited, thoughtless and messy.
我又不是格里高利·派克 Everybody can't be Gregory Peck.
你总是挡不住美女挑逗的眼神 You're a setup for some young babe.
你还要幼稚到什么时候？ How childish are you gonna get before you stop it?
我不要当个幼稚之人 多年前我就习惯了 I don't wanna be childish. I'd settle for a few years.
那么 就别再无理取闹了 And cut that out right now.
比尔 我会失去你吗？ Am I going to lose you, Bill? Am I?
你现在的行为 就像个六岁的小女孩 As of this moment, you're six years old.
都准备好了 All ready.
谢谢你的帮助 祝你好运 Thanks for your help. Good luck.
再见了 山普森先生 Goodbye, Mr. Sampson.
- 帮我编条围巾吧 - 到达之后打个电话给我 - Knit me a muffler? - Call me when you get in.
孩子 Hey, Junior!
好好照顾她 千万别让她感到寂寞 Keep your eye on her. Don't let her get lonely.
她是迷失丛林之中的羔羊 She's a loose lamb in a jungle.
别担心 Don't worry.
当天晚上 我们派人去拿夏娃的东西 That same night, we sent for Eve's things, her few pitiful possessions.
她仅有的几样东西 她搬到顶楼的客房住 She moved into the little guest room on the top floor.
接下来三个星期的生活 简直就像童话故事一般 The next three weeks were out of a fairy tale,
我是苦尽甘来的灰姑娘 and I was Cinderella in the last act.
夏娃成为我的姐姐 律师 母亲 朋友 心理医师和警察 Eve became my sister, lawyer, mother, friend, psychiatrist and cop.
我们处于蜜月期 The honeymoon was on.
还要再谢幕一次吗？ One more?
从现在起 他们不再是诚心地鼓掌 From now on it isn't applause,
只是在人去楼空前 装模作样罢了 just something to do till the aisles get cleared.
怎么了？ What, again?
我可以看你演最后一幕上千回 I could watch you play that last scene a thousand times,
每一回都让我掉泪 cry every time.
上千回？如果我能演那么久 Performance number 1, 000 of this one, if I play it that long,
我一定是在疯人院中演 will take place in a well-padded booby hatch.
我可以看出 你一定是在想念山普森先生 I must say, you can certainly tell Mr. Sampson's been gone a month.
没错 You certainly can.
特别是在寂寞的夜晚 Especially if you're me between now and tomorrow morning.
你买了尺寸较小的束腰 我可以感觉得出来 You bought the new girdles a size smaller. I can feel it.
是你的腰变粗了 Something maybe grew a size larger.
回家后 你一定会穿上这些束腰搔首弄姿一番 You can get into one of those girdles and act for two and a half hours.
这些束腰我穿不下的 I couldn't get into the girdle in two and a half hours.
你还没注意到我最近的装潢 You haven't noticed my latest bit of interior decorating.
你已经做了不少 还有什么新的吗？ But you've done so much. What's new?
窗帘 我亲手做的 The curtains. I made them myself.
真漂亮 伯蒂 你说是吗？ They're lovely. Aren't they lovely, Birdie?
漂亮极了 Adorable.
现在更衣室就只欠一个篮球框 We now got everything a dressing room needs except a basketball hoop.
你连拉链都不会缝 Just because you can't even work a zipper!
夏娃 你真是太贴心了 谢谢 It was very thoughtful of you, Eve. I appreciate it.
你继续卸妆 我把这衣服拿去给保管员 I'll just take this to the wardrobe mistress.
不用麻烦了 布朗太太待会儿就来了 Don't bother. Mrs. Brown will be along soon.
一点都不麻烦 No trouble at all.
请恕我直言 May I be so bold as to say something?
你听过"工会"这两个字吗？ Have you ever heard of the word "union"?
我欠你薪水？多少？ Behind in your dues? How much?
- 我没有加入工会 我只是个奴役 - 哦 - I haven't got a union. I'm slave labor. - Well?
可是服装管理员就有 在演艺圈中 除了男高音之外 But the wardrobe women have got one and, next to a tenor,
服装管理员是最难搞定的 a wardrobe woman is the touchiest thing in show business.
她们有两项任务 拿服装和把服装烫坏 She's got two things to do: carry clothes and press 'em wrong.
而且还不愿别人插手 And don't let anybody try to muscle in.
夏娃 Eve.
把衣服拿给布朗太太吧 We'd better let Mrs. Brown pick up the wardrobe.
喂？ Hello.
你可以和比佛利山通话了 We are ready with your call to Beverly Hills.
通话 通什么话 Call? What call?
是田普顿8-9970号 玛格·钱宁小姐吗？ Is this Templeton 89970? Miss Channing?
没错 但我不懂 Yes, it is, but I don't understand.
你预约在加州时间午夜12点 We are ready with the call you placed for 12 midnight,
与比佛利山庄的山普森通话 California time, to Mr. Sampson.
- 我预约？- 请开始通话 - I placed? - Go ahead, please.
玛格 好大的惊喜啊 Margo, what a wonderful surprise.
你这样做 真是太贴心 太可爱了 What a thoughtful, ever-lovin' thing to do.
比尔 我疯了吗？ Bill. Have I gone crazy, Bill?
你是我的女人 不是吗？没错 - You're my girl, aren't you? - That I am.
那么你就是疯了 Then you're crazy.
- 你什么时候回来？- 一星期后 - When are you coming back? - I leave in a week.
电影已经拍好了 昨晚我们看了试片 The picture's wrapped up. We previewed last night.
那些试片 Oh, those previews.
就像新片首映一样 可怕极了 Like opening out of town, but terrifying.
但我也莫可奈何 There's nothing you can do.
我仿佛是被困在装影片的锡罐里 You're trapped. You're in a tin can.
不管是被困在锡罐 赛璐玢 In a tin can, cellophane
或纳瓦霍式色彩鲜艳的毛毯中 or wrapped in a Navajo blanket, .
我要你回来 I want you home
- 这么急？- 我很急 快回来吧 - You in a hurry? - In a big hurry, so be quick about it.
再见了 亲爱的 晚安 Goodbye, darling. Sleep tight.
等等 别急着挂电话 你还没有说 Hey, wait a minute. You haven't even said it yet.
比尔 你知道我是多么想你 Oh, now, Bill. You know how much I do,
可是在电话中... but over a phone...
那是小孩子的玩意儿 Now, really. That's kids' stuff.
不论是不是小孩子的玩意儿 Kids' stuff or not.
机会难得 我要听你说 It doesn't happen every day and I wanna hear it.
- 如果你说不出来用唱的也可以 - 用唱的？ - And if you won't say it, you can sing it. - Sing it?
没错 就像那些工会的人一样 Sure, like the Western Union boys used to do.
比尔 Bill...
今天是你的生日 It's your birthday.
谁记得？谁会在12点整向我祝贺？ And who remembered it? Who was there on the dot at 12 midnight?
生日快乐 亲爱的 Happy birthday, darling.
一点诚意都没有 The reading could've been better, but you said it.
祝你诸事顺心 Now, "Many happy returns of the day."
祝你诸事顺心 Many happy returns of the day.
你为我办了一个生日会吧？ I get a party, don't I?
当然 生日会兼洗尘 Of course. Birthday and coming home.
我会邀请谁参加？ Who will I ask?
宴会的事我全知道 夏娃写信告诉我了 I know all about the party. Eve wrote me.
- 她告诉你了？- 我离开后她每周都写信来 - She did? - She hasn't missed a week since I left.
这一点你应该知道才对 或许是你叫她写的 But you know that. You probably tell her what to write.
总之 我已经列了一张名单给她 Anyway, I sent her a list of guests,
你和她讨论一下吧 so check with her.
我会的 Yeah, I will.
- 夏娃还好吧？- 还好 - How is Eve? OK? - OK.
- 我爱你 - 我会和夏娃讨论的 - I love you. - I'll check with Eve.
什么？ Hm?
我也爱你 晚安 亲爱的 I love you, too. Good night, darling.
再见了 See ya.
伯蒂 Birdie.
你不喜欢夏娃吧 You don't like Eve, do you?
你要答案还是和我争论？ You want an argument or an answer?
- 答案 - 不喜欢 - An answer. - No.
- 为什么？- 你开始要和我争论起来了 - Why not? - Now you want an argument.
- 她工作认真 - 不眠不休 - She works hard. - Night and day.
她忠心耿耿 做事又有效率 She's loyal and efficient.
就像只有一名委托人的经纪人 Like an agent with only one client.
她的心中只有我 She thinks only of me,
不是吗？ doesn't she?
就当做她的心中只有你吧 Well, let's say she thinks only about ya, anyway.
- 你这句话是什么意思？- 这么说吧 - How do you mean that? - I'll tell ya how.
就像 Like...
她一直在研究你 Like she's studying you.
仿佛你是一出戏剧 一本书或蓝图 Like you was a play, or a book, or a set of blueprints.
你如何走路 谈话 吃饭 思考和睡觉 How you walk, talk, eat, think...
那样做的确很讨喜 而且那样做也没什么不对 I'm sure that's flattering. There's nothing wrong with it.
早安 我这件高雅的新衣如何？ Good morning. Well, what do you think of my elegant new suit?
穿在你身上比我合适多了 It looks much better on you than it did on me.
我可以想像 只需要稍微修改一下就好了 I can imagine. All it needed was a little taking in here and letting out there.
你确定你不要了？ Are you sure you won't want it yourself?
当然 穿在我身上太年轻了 Quite sure. I find it too seventeenish for me.
快别这么说了 你把自己说成是老妇人了 Come now, as though you were an old lady.
我要出门了 还有什么事要吩咐的吗？ I'm on my way. Is there anything else?
- 那份要稿件还给工会 - 我已经拿了 - That script to take to the Guild. - I've got it.
还有那些付所得税的支票 And those checks for the income-tax man.
在这儿 Right here.
看来你一切你都打点好了 It seems I can't think of a thing you haven't thought of.
这是我分内的工作 午茶时间见了 That's my job. See you at teatime.
夏娃 Eve?
你曾为我预约一通加州时间午夜的电话吗？ Did you place a call from me to Bill for midnight California time?
天啊 我忘了告诉你 Golly, I forgot to tell you!
没错 你忘得一干二净 Yes, dear, you forgot all about it.
我相信 你一定很想祝他生日快乐 I was sure you'd want to, being his birthday.
可是这几天你这么忙 You've been so busy lately.
昨晚你和理查德夫妇出去前 我打算要告诉你 Last night I meant to tell you before you went out.
我想你回家时 我一定是睡着了 I guess I was asleep when you got home.
我想是吧 夏娃 你真是体贴入微 Yes, I guess you were. It was very thoughtful of you, Eve.
山普森先生的生日 我怎么能忘呢 Mr. Sampson's birthday, I couldn't forget that.
你一定不会原谅我的 You'd never forgive me.
老实说 我拍了一张电报给他 As a matter of fact, I sent him a telegram myself.
比尔的洗尘生日会 历史性的一夜 Bill's welcome-home birthday party, a night to go down in history.
宴会还没开始 我便已感受到山雨欲来风满楼 Even before the party started, I could smell disaster in the air.
我早就料到会有这种结局 I knew it.
我在为这场宴会换装前就已感受到 I sensed it even as I finished dressing for that blasted party.
- 准备好了没？- 背上的拉链还没拉 - You all put together? - My back's open.
- 小帮手来了没？- 有些人打扮的 - Extra help get here? - There's some characters
像女佣和男仆 dressed as maids and butlers.
你邀请了威廉莫瑞斯经纪公司的人？ Did you call the William Morris Agency?
一点都不好笑 You're not funny.
我可以邀请更没品味的演员 食物呢？ Actors would cost less. How about the food?
酒席承办人已回去拿开 The caterer had to go back for the hors d'oeuvres.
好了 Voilà!
那位法国人一定教了你不少 That French ventriloquist taught you a lot.
天下没有他不知道的事 There was nothing he didn't know.
酒保说 There's a message from the bartender.
钱宁小姐知道自己选错了本国的琴酒吗？ "Does Miss Channing know that she ordered domestic gin by mistake?"
我唯一选错的就是今晚的客人 The only thing I ordered by mistake is the guests.
客人和酒都是来美国 只要是酒他们都不会计较的 They don't care what they drink as long as it burns.
- 比尔呢？他迟到了 - 什么迟到了？ - Where's Bill? He's late. - Late for what?
笨 宴会 Don't be dense. The party.
我清醒得很 他已经回来20分钟了 I ain't dense. He's been here for 20 minutes.
真奇怪 他竟然还没... Well, I certainly think it's odd he hasn't even come up to...
摄影师说别担心 The cameraman said,
就连大导演德米尔都看不见 "Even DeMille couldn't see anything
所以这是第一次 也是最后一次 looking through the wrong end!" So...
别让我给打断了 这是成人笑话吗？ Don't let me kill the point. Or isn't it a story for grown-ups?
你听过了 我正讲到我将摄影机取景器拿反了看 You've heard it. I looked through the wrong end of the camera.
这倒让我想起 我看穿洋蓟中心的事 Remind me to tell you about the time I looked into the heart of an artichoke.
我很想听 I'd like to hear it.
那是在一个大雪纷飞的夜晚 当时我们坐在炉火旁 Some snowy night in front of the fire.
对了 夏娃 你去看开胃菜来了没 Meanwhile, would you check about the hors d'oeuvres, Eve?
承办人忘了带来 可能是清漆还没干吧 The caterer forgot them. The varnish wasn't dry or something.
当然 Of course.
看来我将有个非常盛大的生日会 Looks like I'm going to have a fancy party.
- 我以为你会迟到 - 我可是这场盛会的主人啊 - I thought you were going to be late. - Well, I'm guest of honor.
我根本还不知道你回来了 I had no idea you were even here.
我上楼时遇见夏娃 她告诉我你正在换装 I ran into Eve and she told me you were dressing.
之前这种事 是不会让你停下脚步的 That's never stopped you before.
我们开始聊了起来 她想多了解好莱坞 She wanted to know about Hollywood.
她似乎非常感兴趣 She seemed so interested...
这个女孩子的兴趣可真多 She's a girl of so many interests.
这种女孩已经不多了 It's a pretty rare quality these days.
- 一个拥有如此多稀有特质的女孩子 - 她似乎是 - A girl of so many rare qualities. - So she seems.
这些话你常挂在嘴边 So you've pointed out so often.
你老是说她拥有许多特质 So many qualities so often.
她的忠诚 效率 奉献 热情 还有如此年轻 Her loyalty, efficiency, devotion, warmth and affection, and so young.
如此年轻貌美 So young and so fair.
真不敢相信你会说出这种话 I can't believe you're making this up.
你这番话就像是出自克莱德菲奇所写的闹剧一样 It sounds like something out of an old Clyde Fitch play.
克莱德菲奇 尽管你可能不这么认为 Clyde Fitch, though you may not think so,
但他的年代比我还早 was well before my time.
我一直不相信林肯遇刺那一晚 I always deny that you were in Our American Cousin
你正在演出"美国表哥" the night Lincoln was shot.
- 这笑话一点都不好笑 - 当然好笑 - I don't think that's funny. - Of course it is.
这简直是太可笑了 This is all too laughable to be anything else.
知道我对你 因我们是老少配而疑神疑鬼 You know what I feel about your age obsession.
现在又因为我和一个梦想成为演员的小女孩 And this getting into a jealous froth
谈了十分钟就醋性大发有何感想吗？ because I spent ten minutes with a stage-struck kid.
- 20分钟 - 30分钟 40分钟 有何差别？ - 20! - 30 minutes, 40 minutes. What of it?
一个梦想成为演员的女孩子 年轻又拥有许多特质 Stage-struck. She's a young lady of qualities.
我受够了 她既年轻又拥有许多特质 And I'm fed up with both the young lady and her qualities.
把我当成戏剧或蓝图一样研究 Studying me as if I were a play or a blueprint.
研究我如何走路 谈话 思考 演戏和睡觉 How I walk, talk, think, act, sleep.
你怎能因一个孩子尽其所能 How can you take offense at a kid
向她的偶像看齐而发怒？ trying to be like her ideal?
别再称她孩子 Stop calling her a kid.
不幸的是 我希望我生命中的某些东西 As it happens, there are particular aspects of my life
我能够独自拥有 to which I would like to maintain sole and exclusive rights and privileges.
- 比方说？- 比方说...你 - For instance, what? - For instance, you.
我知道你在暗示我 将你拥入怀里安慰你 This is my cue to take you in my arms and reassure you.
但我并不打算这么做 因为我太生气了 But I'm not going to. I'm too mad.
- 是罪恶感吧 - 生气 - Guilty! - Mad!
亲爱的 幕前和幕后的你 There are certain characteristics for which you are famous,
有许多人尽皆知的特质 on stage and off.
其中有我喜欢的也有我讨厌的 I love you for some and in spite of others.
我不断尝试别让它们影响我 I haven't let those become too important.
它们是让你在戏剧界立足的本钱之一 They're part of your equipment for getting along in what is called "our environment".
你必须保持齿尖舌利？行 You have to keep your teeth sharp, all right.
但我不会让自己或夏娃成为你的牺牲者 But I will not have you sharpen them on me, or on Eve.
她的牙齿呢 她的毒牙呢？ What about her teeth? Her fangs?
她还没开始磨 这一点你是知道的 She hasn't cut them yet and you know it!
所以当你开始以这个 浮华世界的标准 So when you start judging an idealistic, dreamy-eyed kid
来评断这个充满理想的孩子时 by the bar-room, Benzedrine standards of this megalomaniac society,
我是不会接受的 I won't have it!
夏娃·赫灵顿从未以语言或眼神等暗示过我什么 Eve Harrington has never by word, look, thought or suggestion
除了向我表达她是多么崇拜你 indicated anything to me but adoration for
及看到我们相爱 她是多么高兴 you and happiness at our being in love.
我认为你的无理取闹 To intimate anything else
并不是吃醋 表现出你极度缺乏安全感 spells a paranoiac insecurity
你该感到惭愧 that you should be ashamed of.
停 印出来 接下来我会有什么遭遇？ Cut. Print it. What happens in the next reel?
声嘶力竭的我 会被拖到蛇洞之中吗？ Do I get dragged off to the snake pits?
钱宁小姐 Miss Channing?
开胃菜来了 还有什么事吗？ The hors d'oeuvres are here. Is there anything else I can do?
谢谢你 夏娃 我想喝杯纯的马丁尼 Thank you, Eve. I'd like a martini, very dry.
我去拿 I'll get it.
- 你要喝什么？- 奶昔？ - What'll you have? - A milk shake?
请给我一杯纯马丁尼 A martini, very dry, please.
- 马克斯 会场在楼上 - 嗨 比尔 - The party's on the first floor. - Hi, Bill.

请 Shall we?
玛格 你能接纳夏娃是最让我开心的事 It's made me so happy your taking Eve in.
很高兴见到你如此开心 I'm so happy you're happy.
那孩子并不是接受你的施舍 You haven't been running a settlement house exactly.
她很争气也已经上轨道了 The kid has earned her way.
她刚接手时 You had a mixed-up inventory when she took over.
你的生活作息总是一塌糊涂 Merchandise laying all over the shop.
你把玛格给搞糊涂了 You mixed Margo up with a five-and-ten.
马克斯 现在一切都井然有序了吧？ Everything on its proper shelf, eh, Max? All done up in little ribbons.
就算我现在死了 也没人会注意到 I could die right now and nobody'd be confused.
- 马克斯 你呢？- 我什么？ - How about you, Max? - How about me what?
如果你死了呢？ Suppose you dropped dead. What about your inventory?
我不会因为别人的冷嘲热讽就死掉的 I ain't going to drop dead. Not with the heat.
这是我听过最精彩的对话 This is the most ghoulish conversation.
- 谢谢你 - 不客气 - Thank you. - Nothing.
马克斯 日安 Max! Mon vieux!
谢菲 Fife!
那孩子马上就下来 "The kid" will be down in a minute,
除非你想带着她的饮料上去找她 unless you'd like to take her drink up to her.
我可以再去拿一杯 I can get a fresh one...
凯伦 给你 典型的吉布森少女 Karen, you're a Gibson girl.
谢谢 Thank you
空气中弥漫着"马克白式" 紧张的气氛 The general atmosphere is very Macbethish.
发生什么了事 或是什么即将发生？ What has or is about to happen?
他在说什么？ What is he talking about?
马克白 Macbeth.
我们全都清楚你又不是头一遭这样无理取闹 We've seen you like this before.
你才刚开始还是已经结束？ Is it over or is it just beginning?
请系好你们的安全带 这将会是颠簸的一夜 Fasten your seat belts. It's going to be a bumpy night.
- 玛格 亲爱的 - 你好吗？ - Margo, darling! - How are you?
小姐 谢谢你的邀请 Mademoiselle, je vous remercie pour l'invitation.
彼此彼此 Enchantée to you too.
艾迪森 我记得已在名单中将你除名 I remember, Addison, crossing you off my guest list.
你还来干什么？ What are you doing here?
亲爱的玛格 你扮演的彼得潘真令人难忘 Dear Margo, you were an unforgettable Peter Pan.
你一定要再扮演一次 You must play it again soon.
- 还记得卡丝威尔小姐吧 - 不记得了 幸会 - Remember Miss Casswell? - I do not. How do you do?
我们没见过面 或许就是因为如此吧 We've never met. Maybe that's why.
卡小姐是个演员 She is an actress.
毕业于 科帕卡巴纳戏剧艺术学校 A graduate of the Copacabana School of Dramatic Art.
啊... 夏娃 Ah... Eve.
- 晚安 杜威特先生 - 我不知道你们两个认识 - Good evening, Mr. DeWitt. - I had no idea you knew each other.
我们俩终于正式见面了 This must be, at long last, our formal introduction.
- 之前我们只是擦身而过 - 我们也是这样见面的 - Until now, we've only met in passing. - That's how you met me. In passing.
夏娃 她是杜先生母亲的老朋友 Eve, this is an old friend of Mr. DeWitt's mother.
- 卡小姐 她是赫灵顿小姐 - 幸会 - Miss Casswell, Miss Harrington. - How do you do?
艾迪森 我老早之前就想介绍夏娃给你认识了 I've been wanting you to meet Eve for the longest time.
你可能是天性害羞 才会迟迟没有提到这件事 Your timidity must have kept you from mentioning it.
你一定听说她对戏剧有浓厚的兴趣 You know of her interest in the theatre?
我们拥有相同的兴趣 We have that in common.
那么你们更应该好好聊一聊 Then you two must have a long talk.
只怕杜先生 很快就会感到枯燥乏味 I'm afraid Mr. DeWitt would find me boring before too long.
他不会的 他不会让你有说话的机会的 You won't bore him, honey. You won't even get a chance to talk.
克劳蒂亚 过来 Claudia, come here.
看见那个人没？马克斯·费宾 他是个制作人 You see that man? That's Max Fabian, the producer.
好好去推销自己一番吧 Now, go and do yourself some good.
他们为何总是一副闷闷不乐的样子？ Why do they always look like unhappy rabbits?
因为他们是制作人 去逗他开心吧 Cos that's what they are. Now go and make him happier.
现在 别担心 她没事的 Now, don't worry about your little charge. She'll be in safe hands.
阿门 Amen!
- 李斯特的"爱之梦" - 我刚才弹过了 - Liebestraum. - I just played it.
- 再弹一遍 - 我已经连弹四次了 - Play it again. - But that was the fourth straight time.
那么就弹第五次吧 Then this will be five.
你的客人问 何时才能看见你的遗体 Many of your guests are wondering when they may be permitted to view the body.
- 你把它放置在哪里？- 时候未到 - Where has it been laid out? - It hasn't been laid out.
我的遗体还没有进行防腐处理 We haven't finished with the embalming.
事实上 你正看着它 As a matter of fact, you're looking at it.
钱宁小姐的遗体 The remains of Margo Channing
坐着 sitting up.
我的遗愿就是坐着被埋葬 It is my last wish to be buried sitting up.
下台一鞠躬不是更自然吗？ Wouldn't you feel more natural taking a bow?
谈到情感 你根本分不清自然和不自然 You know nothing about feelings, natural or unnatural.
现在不提情感 你的客人想知道 Your guests were also wondering whether the music couldn't be
可以换点轻松一点的音乐吗？ a shade more on the, shall we say, happier side?
如果客人不喜欢待在这儿 If my guests do not like it here,
我建议他们陪你到 "育婴室"去 I suggest they accompany you to the nursery
我保证你们在那儿 会更有宾至如归的感觉 where I'm sure you will all feel more at home.
玛格 你家有苏打吗？ Margo, you by any chance haven't got any bicarbonate of soda in the house?
可怜的马克斯 心痛？ Poor Max. Heartburn?
卡丝威尔小姐 It's that Miss Casswell.
他的心痛一定是她造成的 I don't see why she hasn't given Addison heartburn.
无心可痛 No heart to burn.
每个人都有一颗心 除了一些人之外 Everybody has a heart, except some people.
我当然有苏打 Of course I've got bicarb.
餐具室里有一盒 I've got a box in the pantry.
我们会写上你的名字 马克斯·费宾 We'll put your name on it. "Max Fabian."
它将永远只供你使用 It will stay there always, just for you.
让其他人去赚钱吧 Let the rest of the world beat their brains out for a buck.
朋友才是最重要的 It's friends that count.
而我有一大堆朋友 And I have friends.
马克斯 我爱你 这是我的肺腑之言 I love you, Max. I really mean it.
我爱你 I love you.
到餐具室吧 Come to the pantry.
她爱我就像爱她爸一样 她喝醉了 She loves me like a father. Also, she's loaded.
在这儿 There you are, Maxie dear.
只要你打个嗝 就能甩掉那位卡小姐 One good burp and you'll be rid of that Miss Casswell.
我的处境 不是打个嗝就能脱身的 The situation I'm in ain't the kind you can belch your way out of.
- 我已经承诺过 - 对卡小姐承诺？承诺什么？ - I made a promise. - To Miss Casswell? What?
试镜 我们正准备换掉你的替身 For an audition for this part we are replacing.
你的妹妹叫什么名字？ What's her name? Your sister?
- 一汤匙？- 不 两汤匙 - One? - No, two, please.
如果她能演戏 演技应该不会太差 If she can act, she might not be bad.
她颇有大将之风 She looks like she might burn down a plantation.
现在我只在乎我的心痛 Right now, I feel like there is one burning in me.
- 什么时候试镜？- 几个星期之后 - When's the audition? - A couple of weeks.
这样吧 我和她一起读吧 Tell you what. Why don't I read with her?
- 你愿意？- 只要能帮上你的事 - Would you? - Anything to help you out, Max.
真够义气 感激不尽 Now that's cooperation. I appreciate it.
别见外 现在你可以帮我一个大忙 Not at all. And now you can do me a great favor.
尽管说吧 Just name it.
希望你能在你的办公室 为夏娃安排一个位置 Give Eve Harrington a job in your office.
你的反应还真快嘛 You get quick action, don't you?
我从未想到要将她从你的身旁抢走 I wouldn't think of taking that girl away from you.
你说过我的一切都已上轨道 You said yourself my inventory was in shape, all my merchandise put away.
把她留在这儿无所事事 就是耽误她的大好前程 To keep her here with nothing to do, I'd be standing in her way.
况且你需要她呀 她能做什么？ - And you need her, Max. - What will she do?
她将会是你的得力助手 她可以替你可以看剧本 She'd be a great help. She'd read scripts,
替你做你该做的访问 帮你挡掉闲杂人等 interview people you have to see, get rid of those you don't have to.
到时候你就可以悠闲度日了 You'd be a man of leisure, Maxie.
为你的健康着想吧 Think of your health.
你可以在竞争激烈的环境中 舒服过日 More time to relax in the fresh air at a racetrack.
- 我还是认为这样不妥 - 答应我吧 - I don't think it's such a good idea. - Promise?
- 我... - 这才乖 - Promise. - That's my Max.
原来你们都在这儿 Oh, there you both are.
马克斯 凯伦想回家了 Max, Karen's decided it's time to go.
- 她人在哪儿？- 你的房间 - Where is she now? - Up in your room.
我先失陪了 我得去告诉卡小姐 If you'll excuse me, I'll go and tell Miss Casswell.
- 还有多少客人？- 很多 - Who's left out there? - Too many.
而且你还有一个新客人 从好莱坞来的电影明星 And, besides, you got a new guest. A movie star from Hollywood.
少来了 我才把我的签名册送到干衣店呢 Shucks! And I sent my autograph book to the cleaners.
你就是喜欢和我唱反调 是吧？ You disapprove of me when I'm like this, don't you?
不尽然 有时我真希望我能更了解你 Not exactly. Sometimes, though, I wish I understood you better.
- 你更了解我时 请让我知道 - 我会的 - When you do, let me in on it. - I will.
- 新人新戏如何？- 新戏？大概不错吧 - How's the new one coming? - The play? Oh, all right, I guess.
可拉 还是个双十年华的女孩？ Cora. Still a girl of 20?
二十左右 但这不是重点 20-ish. It's not important.
难道你不认为 该让它成为重点了吗？ Don't you think it's about time it became important?
- 什么意思？- 别再装了 - How do you mean? - Don't be evasive.
玛格 你一点都不老啊 Margo, you haven't got any age.
钱宁小姐是一棵长青树 你的口气像记者一样 Miss Channing is ageless. Spoken like a press agent.
我知道我在说什么 那些全是我的戏剧 I know what I'm talking about. They're my plays.
口气像作者一样 Spoken like an author.
洛伊 我不是二十几岁 也不是三十几岁 Lloyd, I'm not 20-ish. I'm not 30- ish.
三个月前我就四十岁了 Three months ago I was 40 years old.
我就这样步入四十岁 40! Four-0.
时光流逝 我根本还没有勇气承认 That slipped out.I hadn't quite made up my mind to admit it.
我突然感觉自己全身赤裸 Now I suddenly feel as if I've taken all my clothes off.
这些日子以来 对无数的观众而言 To thousands of people
你要多年轻就有多年轻 you're as young as you want.
你是指他们要我多年轻吧 As young as they want, you mean.
我不在乎广大的观众 认为我是六岁或是六百岁 I'm not interested whether thousands of people think I'm six or 600.
只是一个人 不是吗？ Just one person, isn't that so?
你了解这与你是否 You know what this is all about.
应该演可拉并无关系 It has little to do with whether you should play Cora.
这只显示出你又与比尔吵嘴了 It has everything to do with you having a fight with Bill.
比尔32岁 他看起来就像32岁 Bill's 32. He looks 32.
5年前他就长这样 20年后依然不会变 He looked it five years ago. He'll look it 20 years from now.
我恨男人 I hate men.
洛伊 别担心 我会演你的戏的 Don't worry, Lloyd. I'll play your play.
如果必要 我可以穿着连衫裤摇呼啦圈的 I'll wear rompers and come in rolling a hoop, if you like.
谁会在这时候出现？现在是回家的时候 Who'd show up at this hour? It's time people went home.
把那件外套拿起来 Hold that coat up.
- 谁的外套？- 一个好莱坞影星的 - Whose is it? - Some Hollywood movie star.
- 她的飞机迟到了 - 真扫兴 对不对？ - Her plane got in late. - Discouraging, isn't it?
穿这种皮草的女人 永远都不会招凉 Women with furs like that where it never even gets cold.
好莱坞 Hollywood.
夏娃 告诉我 近来过得如何？快乐吗？ Tell me, Eve. How are things going with you? Happy?
快乐应该有一个同义字 There should be a new word for happiness.
和钱宁小姐在一起... 我难以用言语形容 Being here with Miss Channing has been a... I just can't say.
她是个大好人 为我做了许多事 She's been so wonderful, done so much for me.
洛伊说玛格是在现实人生中 Lloyd says Margo compensates for underplaying on stage
补偿在舞台上的不足 by overplaying reality.
我的新貂皮大衣摆在那件旁 Next to that sable, my new mink
看起来就像是睡衣一般 seems like an old bed jacket.
夏娃 你对玛格可说是尽心尽力了 晚安 You've done your share, Eve. You've worked wonders with Margo. Good night.
- 理查德太太 - 请叫我凯伦 - Mrs. Richards? - Karen.
凯伦 Karen.
真难以启齿 你为我做了这么多事 Isn't it awful? I'm about to ask you for another favor,
我又要请你帮忙了 after all you've done already.
夏娃 你太客气了 Nobody's done so much.
别再把自己看得如此卑微 Stop thinking of yourself as one of the hundred neediest cases.
- 什么事？- 钱宁小姐的一切都已步上轨道 - What is it? - Miss Channing's affairs are in good shape,
我没有太多的事可做 so there isn't enough to keep me as busy as I should be.
我并没有离开她的打算 Not that I'd consider anything that would take me away from her.
但前几天我听见 费宾先生告诉钱宁小姐 But the other day when Mr. Fabian told Miss Channing
她的替身就要生产了 他们必须找人代替她 that her understudy was going to have a baby and they'd have to replace her...
- 你想当玛格的新替身？- 我不敢如此奢望 - You wanna be Margo's new understudy? - I don't let myself think about it even.
但我对这个角色和舞台都十分了解 But I do know the part so well, and every bit of the staging,
因此没有必要另找他人 there'd be no need to break in a new girl.
但万一观众买票来看钱小姐 Suppose I had to go on one night
却看到我的演出呢？ to an audience that came to see Margo Channing.
- 万万不行 - 这一点我并不担心 - Oh, no, I couldn't possibly! - I wouldn't worry too much about that.
玛格是绝不会缺席的 Margo just doesn't miss performances.
只要她能走 能爬或能滚 她就能演 If she can walk, crawl or roll, she plays.
- 戏必须继续演下去 - 不 玛格必须演下去 - The show must go on. - No, dear. Margo must go on.
老实说 我看不出任何你不该当她的替身的原因 I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be her understudy.
- 你认为钱宁小姐会答应吗？- 她会乐观其成的 - You think Miss Channing would approve? - I think she'd cheer.
可是 理查德先生和山普森先生呢？ But Mr. Richards and Mr. Sampson?
他们会配合的 They'll do as they're told.
你愿意向费宾先生提这件事吗？ Then would you speak to Mr. Fabian about it?
- 当然 - 你不会忘记？ - Of course. - You won't forget?
我不会忘的 I won't forget.
似乎我对你永远都有感谢不完的事 I seem to be forever thanking you for something, don't I?
这张床就像是动物坟场一样 The bed looks like a dead animal act.
- 哪一只是貂？- 她不是才刚来吗 - Which one is sable? - But she just got here.
她正要和一群人离开 Well, she's on her way with half the men in the joint.
- 这只是一件皮草 - 难道你期望它是活貂吗？ - It's only a fur coat. - What do you expect? Live sable?
至少要有钻石衣领和黄金袖口 Diamond collar, gold sleeves. You know, picture people.
戏剧界或是电影界的前辈 有时会告诉大众 Elder statesmen of the theatre or cinema
演员也是凡夫俗子 assure the public that actors and actresses are just plain folks,
而忽略了演员最大的魅力 ignoring the fact that their greatest attraction to the public
就在于 他们与一般百姓截然不同 is their complete lack of resemblance to normal human beings.
这是女孩愿意牺牲一切 想得到的东西 Now there's something a girl could make sacrifices for.
- 或许已经做出牺牲了 - 貂皮大衣 - And probably has. - Sable.
- 貂皮大衣？她说貂皮还是狐皮？- 都一样 - Sable? Did she say sable or Gable? - Either one.
我们一样都有奇怪的特质 We all have abnormality in common.
我们和芸芸众生不同 我们是戏剧界的人士 We're a breed apart from the rest of humanity, we theatre folk.
我们是被错置的人 We are the original displaced personalities.
明天你不用看他的专栏了 刚才你已经听过了 You won't have to read his column tomorrow, Eve. You just heard it.
- 艾迪森 我不同意 - 这正是你的奇怪特质 - I don't agree, Addison. - That's your particular abnormality.
我承认剧场有害群之马 I admit there's a screwball element in the theatre.
他们非常引人注目 It sticks out,
不但有聚光灯照射 还有铜管乐队伴奏 it's got spotlights on it and a brass band.
但他们并不是根本也不是标准 But it isn't basic. It isn't standard.
否则剧场将无法生存 If it were, the theatre couldn't survive.
服务生 Oh, waiter.
他不是服务生 他是佣人 That isn't a waiter, my dear. That's a butler.
我总不能大声喊着佣人吧 Well, I can't yell out "butler", can I?
或许有人正好名叫 "佣人"（布勒） Maybe somebody's name is Butler.
言之有理 虽然是个歪理但至少是个理由 You have a point. An idiotic one, but a point.
我不想引起麻烦 我是想喝杯酒 I don't wanna make trouble. All I want is a drink.
- 让我来吧 我去帮你拿一杯 - 谢谢你 费宾先生 - Leave it to me. I'll get you one. - Thank you, Mr. Fabian.
干得好 Well done.
我已看见你的演艺生涯如东升的旭日一般 I can see your career rising in the east like the sun.
你怎么说？ You were saying?
我说想在戏剧界立足 就得靠九成的努力 The theatre is nine-tenths hard work.
流血流汗努力工作再加上天分 Work done the hard way, by sweat, application and craftsmanship.
我同意 想在剧场成为出色的演员 To be a good actor or actress, or anything in the theatre,
就得要有强烈的企图心 means wanting to be that more than anything else.
没错 Yes. Yes, it does.
它比其他行业需要 It means a concentration of desire or ambition and sacrifice
更强烈的企图心和更多的牺牲 such as no other profession demands.
而且我同意 凡是接受这些考验的人 And the man or woman who accepts those terms can't be ordinary,
都不是等闲之辈 can't be just someone.
只问耕耘不问收获 To give so much for almost always so little.
不问收获 "So little?"
你说不问收获？ "So little, " did you say?
至少还有掌声 Why, if there's nothing else, there's applause.
我在后台总是听到观众的掌声 I've listened backstage to people applaud.
仿佛 It's like...
一波波的爱 自脚光涌来将你包围 Like waves of love coming over the footlights and wrapping you up.
每晚都有千百个爱你的人 Imagine, to know every night that different hundreds of people love you.
他们露出微笑眼睛散发出光芒 你已经取悦他们 They smile, their eyes shine, you've pleased them.
他们需要你 你属于他们的 They want you. You belong.
光是这一点就值得一切的牺牲 Just that alone is worth anything.
别起来 请你别再以母后自居 Don't get up. And please stop acting as if I were the Queen Mother.
- 对不起 我不是故意的 - 玛格 在蜂窝之外 - I'm sorry, I didn't... - Outside of a beehive, Margo,
你的行为 既不像皇后也不像母亲 your behavior is hardly queenly or motherly.
难道你不知道你身在蜂窝之中 You're in a beehive, pal.
我们是充满蛰针忙碌的小蜜蜂 一天到晚忙着酿蜜 We're all busy little bees, full of stings, making honey day and night.
- 不是吗 亲爱的？- 玛格 够了 - Aren't we, honey? - Margo, really.
凯伦 请别以长者自居 Please don't play governess, Karen.
我没有你那种高尚的品味 I haven't your unyielding good taste.
当初我也希望能上戏剧学校 但是我爸不肯 I wish I could have gone to Radcliffe, too, but Father wouldn't hear of it.
他希望我留在店里帮忙 He needed help behind a notions counter.
我很失态 对不对？或是我该说"是吧？" I'm being rude now, aren't I? Or should I say, ain't I?
你不但自觉感伤 而且还很自怜 简直是无药可救 You're maudlin and full of self-pity. You're magnificent.
今天就到此为止 好吗？ How about calling it a night?
亏你还是剧作家 And you pose as a playwright.
眼前一个充满无限可能的情况 A situation pregnant with possibilities,
而你却叫大家回去睡觉 and all you can think of is "go to sleep."
这是个不错的想法 无法搬上舞台 - It's a good thought. - It won't play.
身为一个门外汉 As a nonprofessional,
我认为这个一个很棒的点子 抱歉 I think it's an excellent idea. Excuse me.
虽然没有戏剧张力但却很实际 Undramatic, perhaps, but practical.
- 随遇而安的家庭主妇 - 够了 - Happy little housewife. - Cut it out.
这是我家 不是剧院 This is my house, not a theater.
在我家 你是客人不是导演 In my house you're a guest, not a director.
那么 你就别再摆出明星的架式 Then stop being a star
别再把你的客人当成你的配角 and treating your guests as your supporting cast.
- 别在火上加油了 - 也该是时候了 - Let's not get into a big hassle. - It's time we did.
玛格也该了解 在舞台上的迷人之处 Margo has to realize what's attractive on stage
在台下未必迷人 need not be attractive off.
行 All right!
我要睡觉了 I'm going to bed.
现在起你是主人 宴会是为你办的 You be host. It's your party.
生日快乐 欢迎回来 Happy birthday. Welcome home.
我们对你简直是 佩服得五体投地 And we who are about to die salute you.
需要帮助吗？ Need any help?
抱我上床？脱去我的衣服 抱着我的头 To put me to bed? Take my clothes off, hold my head?
为我盖好棉被 关掉电灯然后轻轻离开？ Tuck me in, turn out the lights and tiptoe out?
夏娃就会这么做 对不对 夏娃？ Eve would, wouldn't you, Eve?
只要你愿意 我不愿意 - If you'd like. - I wouldn't like.
- 我忘了我拿着杯子 - 我没忘 - Oh, I forgot I had it. - I didn't.
真可惜 我们就要错过第三幕了 Too bad. We're gonna miss the third act.
他们将在台下演出 They're gonna play it offstage.
- 要一起走吗 马克斯？- 等我一下 - Coming, Max? - In a minute.
夏娃 别太在意玛格的话 即使我很在意 Eve, you mustn't mind Margo too much, even if I do.
事出必有因 一定是我无意间做错了什么 There must be some reason, something I've done without knowing.
问题出在玛格身上 别浪费心思去想了 The reason is Margo and don't try to figure it out.
连爱因斯坦都无法找出答案 Einstein couldn't.
但一想到 我冒犯到她和所有人... But if I thought I'd offended her, of all people...
夏娃 我也喜欢玛格 Eve... I'm fond of Margo, too.
但我了解她 有时 But I know Margo. And every now and then,
我真想好好踹她一脚 there is nothing I wanna do so much as kick her right square in the pants.
如果她必须找人出气 Well, if she has to pick on someone,
我想那个人非我莫属 I'd just as soon it was me.
- 马克斯要载我们回家 - 晚安 - Max is gonna drop us. - Good night.
- 晚安 - 晚安 - Good night. - Good night.
理查德太太 我们谈过的事你不会忘了吧？ Mrs. Richards? You won't forget, will you? What we talked about before?
夏娃 我不会忘的 No, Eve. I won't forget.
为何自己一个人 艾迪森？ Why so remote, Addison?
怎么没在你的女门生身旁给予精神上的支持 You should be at the side of your protégée, lending her moral support.
此时我无法给予 卡小姐任何支持 Miss Casswell is where I can lend no support, moral or otherwise.
她在女..."休息室"？ In the ladies' shall we say "lounge"?
她肚子痛 Being violently ill to her tummy.
在试镜前这是个好兆头 试镜一开始她就会没事的 It's good luck before an audition.
幸运之神并未及时眷顾卡小姐 试镜已经结束了 Miss Casswell got lucky too late. The audition is over.
不可能的 我是来这儿和她一起看剧本的 It can't be. I came here to read with Miss Casswell.
我答应过马克斯的 I promised Max.
试镜已在一小时前结束 现在快四点了 The audition was at 2.30. It's now nearly four.
是吗 我得开始戴表了 我这辈子没戴过表 Is it really? I must start wearing a watch. I never have, you know.
卡小姐和谁一起看剧本？ Who read with Miss Casswell?
- 比尔？洛伊？- 不是 - Bill? Lloyd? - No.
- 不可能是马克斯 到底是谁？- 当然是你的替身 - Well, it can't have been Max. Who? - Naturally, your understudy.
这样是不对的 让一个待产的孕妇... It's unnatural to allow a girl in an advanced state of pregnancy...
我是指没有身孕的新替身 夏娃·赫灵顿小姐 I refer to your new and unpregnant understudy, Miss Eve Harrington.
夏娃 我的替身？ Eve? My understudy?
- 难道你不知道？- 我当然知道 - Didn't you know? - Of course I knew.
你只是一时忘了 It just slipped your mind?
卡小姐呢？ How was Miss Casswell?
老实说 我把她给忘了 Frankly, I don't remember.
你只是一时忘了 彻底忘了 - Just slipped your mind? - Completely.
我相信在场没有人可以告诉你 卡小姐的演技如何 Nor can anyone else present tell you how Miss Casswell read,
或是告诉你 她是在演戏还是在儿戏 or whether Miss Casswell read or rode a pogo stick.
她真有那么糟吗？ Was she that bad?
玛格 你也知道 我对戏剧的信仰是无庸置疑的 Margo, I have lived in the theatre as a Trappist monk lives in his faith.
戏剧是我唯一的世界 唯一的生命 I have no other world, no other life.
我曾见过足以令真正行家 Once in a great while, I experience that moment of revelation
引领企盼的奇才 你就是其中一人 for which all true believers wait and pray. You were one.
珍妮·玛格斯 宝拉·威丝莉 还有其他三四个 Jeanne Eagels another, Paula Wessely, Hayes. There are others, three or four.
夏娃·赫灵顿也将成为其中一人 Eve Harrington will be among them.
我相信 她把对白念得不错 I take it she read well.
那不是念而是表演 It wasn't a reading, it was a performance.
她才华洋溢 充满朝气 如音乐与火焰的化身 Brilliant, vivid, something made of music and fire.
真好 How nice.
假以时日她将成为玛格第二 In time, she'll be what you are.
我正是音乐与火焰的化身 A mass of music and fire.
卡祖笛和烟火的结合 That's me. An old kazoo with some sparklers.
告诉我 比尔是否也同样惊为天人？ Tell me, was Bill swept away, too?
还是你太震惊而没注意到他？ Or were you too full of revelation to notice?
比尔并没有说... Bill didn't say.
但是洛伊的确是浑然忘我 But Lloyd listened to his play
他仔细听着自己所写的对白 仿佛它是别人所写 as if it had been written by someone else, he said.
他说它听起来是如此新鲜 如此富有意义 It sounded so fresh, so new, so full of meaning.
恭喜洛伊 恭喜夏娃 恭喜大家 How nice for Lloyd. How nice for Eve. How nice for everybody.
夏娃谦虚地不敢居功 她说这是洛伊的功劳 Eve was incredibly modest. She insisted that no credit was due her.
只因她依照他所写的剧本念 That Lloyd felt as he did because she read his lines exactly as he'd written them.
你是在暗示我没有这么做？就我记忆所及 The implication being that I did not read them as written?
他们并未提到 你的名字或是表演 Neither your name nor your performance entered the conversation.
亲爱的 感觉好点没？ Ah! Feeling better, my dear?
我刚才仿佛置身于英吉利海峡 接下来呢？ Like I just swam the English Channel. Now what?
以我之见 你应该进军电视界 Your next move, it seems to me, should be towards television.
电视圈有办试镜吗？ Tell me this. Do they have auditions for television?
电视圈最爱搞试镜了 That's all television is, my dear. Nothing but auditions.
我亲爱的玛格 Oh, Margo, darling.
真是抱歉 我迟到了 Terribly sorry I was late.
午餐了拖很久 而且我一直叫不到计程车 Lunch was long and I couldn't find a cab.
卡小姐在哪儿 我们可以开始了吗？你好 夏娃 Where's Miss Casswell? Oh, hello, Eve.
你好 钱宁小姐 Hello, Miss Channing.
在费宾先生办公室工作 还顺利吧？ How are you making out in Mr. Fabian's office?
马克斯 别让这孩子过度劳累 Now, Max, I don't want you working this child too hard
你答应过我的 just because you promised.
你可以看出我信守承诺 As you see, I kept my promise, too.
结束了 It's all over.
- 什么结束了？- 试镜 - What's all over? - The audition.
- 夏娃和卡小姐一起念过对白了 - 夏娃？真好 - Eve read with Miss Casswell. - Eve? How enchanting.
是你们两个让 夏娃和卡小姐一起念的吗？ How did you get the idea of letting Eve read with Miss Casswell?
- 她是你的替身 - 夏娃是我的替身？我根本不知道 - Well, she's your understudy. - Eve? My understudy? I had no idea.
我以为你知道 她在一个星期以前就被指定了 I thought you knew. She started a week ago.
真是难以置信 我从未在后台 I've never seen her backstage,
看见她身旁围着那么多人 but with so many people loitering about... Well, well.
总之 夏娃将不再为马克斯工作了 So Eve is not working for Max, after all.
马克斯 你真诈 Max, you sly puss.
钱宁小姐 真高兴你迟到了 Miss Channing, I can't tell you how glad I am that you arrived so late.
真的吗？为什么？ Really, Eve? Why?
如果一开始你就在场 我就没有勇气念了 Otherwise, I never would have dared to read.
- 为什么？- 如果你在中途进来我就会停止 - Why not? - If you'd come in the middle,
因为我无法再念下去 I couldn't have gone on.
真可惜 我无缘看见火焰无缘听见音乐 What a pity. All that fire and music being turned off.
- 什么音乐与火焰？- 你不会懂的 - What fire and music? - You wouldn't understand.
卡小姐呢？ How was Miss Casswell?
回到科帕卡巴纳去了 Back to the Copacabana.
玛格 我来告诉你有关夏娃... But Eve, Margo. Let me tell you about Eve.
钱宁小姐 我念得糟透了 I was dreadful, Miss Channing.
相信我 我不配当任何人的替身 更何况是你的替身 I have no right to be anyone's understudy, much less yours.
你太低估你自己了 你总是这样 I'm sure you underestimate yourself. You always do.
你不是要和我谈夏娃吗？ You were about to tell me about Eve.
- 你一直以她为傲 - 没错 - You'd have been proud of her. - I'm sure.
- 她令大家眼睛为之一亮 - 你也有同感？ - She was a revelation. - Oh, to you too?
你这话是什么意思？ What do you mean by that?
别的不说 令人眼睛为之一亮的是 It must have been a revelation
一个24岁的角色 由一个24岁的女演员来扮演 to have a 24- year- old character played by a 24-year-old actress.
- 你扯远了 - 我正中要害 - That's beside the point. - It is the point.
而且 你听起来一定感觉既新鲜又兴奋 It must have seemed so new and fresh to you,
就像你当初所写的一样 so exciting, to have your lines read just as you wrote them.
- 艾迪森 - 充满意义 音乐与热力 - Addison. - So full of meaning, fire and music.
你的语气和说话尖酸刻薄的艾迪森愈来愈像了 You've talked to that venomous fishwife DeWitt.
一点都没错 In this case, as trustworthy as the world almanac.
你早知道你到达时试镜已经结束 You knew when you came in that
也知道夏娃是你的替身 Eve was your understudy.
你是在玩猫捉老鼠的游戏 Playing that childish game of cat and mouse.
不是一般老鼠 是大老鼠 Not mouse. Never mouse. If anything, rat.
你就是喜欢无中生有 Your genius for making a bar-room brawl
嫁祸无辜 out of a perfectly innocent misunderstanding.
无辜！有太多无辜之人被吊死 Perfectly innocent? Men have been hanged for less.
有人欺骗我 暗地里伤害我 I'm lied to, attacked behind my back,
说我把你的剧本念得一塌糊涂 accused of reading your play
仿佛你的剧本是圣经一般 as if it were the holy gospel.
我没说过我的剧本是圣经 I never said it was.
你将自己的剧本当作是别人的剧本听时 You listen as if someone else had written your play.
你认为它是谁写的？ Whom do you have in mind?
亚瑟·米勒？席伍德？博特蒙和佛烈屈？ Arthur Miller? Sherwood? Beaumont and Fletcher?
- 我能说句话吗？- 不能 - May I say a word? - No!
你认为米勒或是席伍德 会忍受你这样无理取闹吗？ You think Miller or Sherwood would stand for the nonsense I take from you?
你最好还是与博特蒙和佛烈屈为伍吧 Stick to Beaumont and Fletcher.
因为他们已经死了300年 They've been dead for 300 years!
所有的剧作家 都应该死了三百年 All playwrights should be dead for 300 years!
这样也无济于事 因为女演员永远死不了的 That would solve none of their problems because actresses never die!
明星不会死也不会改变 The stars never die and never change.
你随时都可以甩掉这位明星 You may change this star any time you want
只为一个新鲜而带劲的明星 for a new and fresh and exciting one,
一个音乐与火焰的化身 fully equipped with fire and music.
随时都可以 从今晚的表演开始 Any time you want, starting with tonight's performance.
这一点留给律师们去谈 This is for lawyers to talk about.
这与合约有关 你不能随便更改 This concerns a contract that you cannot rewrite or ad-lib.
你是在以法律威胁我吗 费宾先生？ Are you threatening me with legal action, Mr. Fabian?
- 你不愿依合约行事？- 回答我的问题 - Are you breaking the contract? - Answer my question.
- 我在威胁谁啊？我棺材都进了一半 - 我听不见 - Who am I to threaten? I'm a dying man. - I don't hear you.
- 我说我棺材都进了一半 - 只要药房的药没卖完 - I said I'm a dying man! - Not until the last drugstore
你就死不了的 has sold its last pill.
我不懂为何 一个只有躯体和声音的人 I shall never understand the process by which a body with a voice
为何突然会认为自己有灵魂？ suddenly fancies itself as a mind.
一个女演员 何时能决定 Just when does an actress decide
自己该说什么 该如何表达内心的想法？ they're her words she's saying and her thoughts she's expressing?
通常是在她必须 改写和重新思考这些台词时 Usually at the point when she has to rewrite and rethink them
以避免观众中途离席时 to keep the audience from leaving the theatre.
该是钢琴了解自己 并未写下协奏曲的时候了 It's about time the piano realized it has not written the concerto!
你是以钢琴为我弹协奏曲的帕德瑞夫斯基吗？ And you, I take it, are the Paderewski who plays his concerto on me, the piano?
那位小公主 音乐与火焰的化身在哪儿？ Where is Princess Fire and Music?
- 谁？- 小女孩 - Who? - The kid. Junior.
- 走了 - 她一定是被我吓跑的 - Gone. - I must have frightened her away.
我并不感到意外 因为有时我也会被你吓着 I wouldn't be surprised. Sometimes you frighten me.
真是个可怜花 匆匆卷起铺盖落荒而逃 Poor little flower. Dropped her petals and folded her tent.
- 说话别弯拐弯抹角的 - 我爱怎么说就怎么说 - Don't mix your metaphors. - I'll mix what I like!
行 嘴长在你脸上 Ok.mix
我不过是个没有灵魂 只有躯体和声音的人 I'm nothing but a body with a voice. No mind.
多什么令人不可思议的 躯体和声音啊 What a body. What a voice.
以前那个记者 没有躯体和声音只有灵魂 That ex ship-news reporter. No body, no voice, all mind.
锣已响 拳赛已经结束 冷静点吧 The gong rang, the fight's over, calm down.
我偏不 I will not calm down.
那就别冷静 Don't calm down.
- 你一直在忍气吞声 是吧？- 我已快忍无可忍 - You're being terribly tolerant, aren't you? - I'm trying terribly hard.
你无须强迫自己 Well, you needn't be.
我无须别人委屈求全 也不愿遭人陷害 I will not be tolerated and I will not be plotted against.
- 你又来了 - 全是无稽之谈 你把我当成什么了？ - Here we go. - Such nonsense. What do you take me for?
你们全把我当成无知的村姑？ Little Nell from the country?
她当我的替身已超过一星期 而我竟全然不知 Been my understudy for a week without me knowing it.
处心积虑把我蒙在鼓里 这显而易见 Carefully hidden, no doubt.
别再无理取闹了 Don't get carried away.
大家都知道我会来 Arrives here for an audition when everyone knows I will be here,
她还敢来试镜 and gives a performance out of nowhere.
这件事你和洛伊已经吵过了 You've been all through that with Lloyd.
剧作家是不干预演出的 The playwright doesn't make the performance.
这种事是不会发生的 这一次也一样 It doesn't just happen, and this once didn't.
充满音乐与火焰... Full of fire and music and whatnot.
经过细心排练 这一点我毫无疑问 Carefully rehearsed, I have no doubt.
充满了比尔·山普森的风格 Full of those Bill Sampson touches.
- 我受够了你的无理取闹 - 无理取闹？ - I am tired of these paranoiac outbursts. - Paranoiac?
今天下午两点半 才知道夏娃是你的替身 I didn't know Eve was your understudy until this afternoon.
把这些话告诉佛洛依德吧 Tell that to Dr. Freud
其他的话也一并告诉他 along with the rest of it.
不 我要告诉你 同时这也是最后一次 No, I'll tell it to you for the last time.
因为你必须停止无理取闹以防伤害你我两人 Cos you've got to stop hurting the two of us by these paranoiac tantrums.
又是无理取闹 我根本不懂什么叫无理取闹 That word. I don't even know what it means.
该是你了解的时候了 It's time you found out.
我爱你 我爱你 I love you. I love you.
你是个既聪明又美丽的女人 You're beautiful and intelligent.
只有声音的躯体 A body with a voice.
既聪明又美丽的伟大演员 A beautiful and an intelligent woman, and a great actress.
正处于事业的颠峰 A great actress at the peak of her career.
一切快乐的理由你都具备 You have every reason for happiness.
- 除了快乐之外 - 一切理由 - Except happiness. - Every reason.
不过 你无法控制自己的情绪 But due to some uncontrollable drive,
而使自己的行为显得幼稚 you permit the slightest action of a kid...
- 幼稚？- 使你变得像个歇斯底里的泼妇 - A kid! - ...a kid to turn you into a screaming harpy.
就此打住吧 Now, once and for all, stop it.
显然你不是女人 It's obvious you're not a woman.
- 这一点我已经注意到很久了 - 我是个女人 - I've been aware of that for some time. - Well, I am.
当然 I'll say.
我不需要你的施舍 Don't be condescending.
起来 我请你喝杯酒 Come on, get up. I'll buy you a drink.
我承认不再像过去那样风光 I may have seen better days,
但我还不至于沦落到 but I'm still not to be had for the price of a cocktail.
一杯酒就能打发的地步 Like a salted peanut.
- 玛格 咱们握手言欢吧 - 代价太高 - Margo, let's make peace. - The terms are too high.
只为了快乐？只为了别再误会夏娃和我？ Just being happy? Just stopping all this nonsense about Eve?
- 这不是误会 - 这纯粹是子虚乌有 - And Eve and me? - It's not nonsense.
你有在听我说话吗？ But if I tell you it is, as I just did, were you listening to me?
- 你闹够了没？- 但愿如此 - Isn't that enough? - I wish it were.
什么是闹够了？ Then what would be enough?
如果我们结婚呢？ If we got married?
我不需你只是想证明某件事而与我结婚 I wouldn't want you to marry me just to prove something.
你不想和我结婚的理由太多了 You've had so many reasons for not wanting to marry me.
玛格 告诉我真正的原因吧 Margo, tell me what's behind all this.
我也不知道 I don't know, Bill.
只是一种感觉 It's just a feeling. I don't know.
你一定知道 I think you do know.
只是不愿告诉我罢了 But you won't or can't tell me.
我说过 这是我最后的告白 I said before it was gonna be my last try, and I meant it.
绝不再优柔寡断 我已尽了最大的努力 I can't think of anything else to do. I wish I could.
落幕之后 我们总是相互叫骂和互砸东西 We usually wind up screaming as the curtain comes down.
然后又和好如初 Then it comes up again and everything's fine.
但这一回不一样了 But not this time.
世上没有一个剧作家 No playwright in the world could make me believe
能让我相信 两个成年人之间会有这种关系 this would happen between two adult people.
再见了 玛格 Goodbye, Margo.
比尔 Bill?
你要去哪儿？ Where are you going?
去找夏娃？ To find Eve?
现在我终于相信了 That suddenly makes the whole thing believable.
洛依 Lloyd.
- 洛依 怎么了？- 我受够了 我再也受不了了 - Lloyd, what's happened? - Up to here, that's where I've got it.
明星的臭架子 傲慢无理 歇斯底里 Of all the star-ridden, presumptuous, hysterical...
- 玛格又开始了 - 一而再 再而三 - Margo again. - And again and again.
而且试镜还迟到两小时 Two hours late for the audition.
这对玛格而言算是准时 That's on time for Margo.
然后又开始无理取闹 And then a childish routine
说她并不知道夏娃是她的替身 about not knowing Eve was her understudy.
- 可能她真的不知道 - 她当然知道 - It's possible she didn't. - She knew.
至少艾迪森告诉过她 夏娃把角色诠释得很好 Addison told her how superbly Eve had read the part.
凯伦 夏娃具有成为明星的一切条件 Karen, let me tell you about Eve. She's got everything. A born actress.
敏感 善解人意 年轻 活力四射 Sensitive, understanding, young, exciting...
亲爱的 别把形容词用完了 You'll run out of adjectives, dear.
一个剧作家最想写的一切 Everything a playwright first thinks of wanting to write about,
直到他的作品只为钱宁小姐量身定作之前 until his play becomes a vehicle for Miss Channing.
玛格表现不俗啊 Margo hasn't done badly by it.
玛格表现得淋漓尽致 她自己也清楚 Margo's great. She knows it,
但这就是问题所在 that's the trouble.
她可以演活泼妇之类的角色 She can play Peck's Bad Boy all she wants
但谁能阻止她的无理取闹？ and who's to stop her?
谁能够给她当头棒喝？ Who's to give her that boot in the rear she needs and deserves?
我们将有个舒适悠闲的周末 It's gonna be a cozy weekend.
- 怎么说？- 明晚我们开车到乡下 - What is? - We're driving to the country tomorrow.
就我们四个 比尔 玛格 你和我 Just the four of us. Bill, Margo, you and I.
我们四人曾在周末无话可说 Well, we've spent weekends before with nobody talking.
只要记得将钝器和能摔的东西锁起来就没事了 Just be sure to lock up all blunt instruments and throwable objects.
他们说牛顿 Newton, they say,
是因为被苹果砸到头而思考地心引力的问题 thought of gravity by getting hit on the head by an apple.
发明蒸气机的人 And the man who invented the steam-engine,
是因水壶而得到灵感 he was watching a teakettle.
但我不是那种人 But not me.
我的好点子都是坐在沙发想出来的 My big idea came to me just sitting on a couch.
给玛格一个当头棒喝 天晓得她能否开窍 That boot in the rear to Margo. Heaven knows, she had one coming.
来自我 洛依 夏娃 比尔 马克斯... From me, from Lloyd, from Eve, Bill, Max and so on.
我们再也无法忍受她的无理取闹 We'd all felt those size fives of hers often enough.
但如何给她当头棒喝呢？ But how?
答案总是在我脑海翻滚 The answer was buzzing around me like a fly.
有了 I had it.
但我随后放弃这个主意 就破口大骂吧 But I let it go. Screaming and calling names is one thing,
但这又代表... but this could mean...
有何不可？我告诉自己这样做有何不可 Why not? "Why, " I said to myself, "not?"
这样做不仅合法 It would all seem perfectly legitimate.
而且只有两个人知道 And only two people in the world would know.
况且这一计当头棒喝能够使一切问题迎刃而解 Also, the boot would land where it would do the most good for all concerned.
毕竟这只是个无伤大雅的玩笑 After all, it was no more than a harmless joke
届时玛格将是第一次受益者 which Margo herself would be the first to enjoy.
而且将来再找机会告诉她也无妨啊 And no reason why she shouldn't be told about it, in time.
喂 请叫夏娃小姐听电话 Hello. Will you please call Miss Eve Harrington to the phone?
不 我会等的 Not at all. I'll wait.
那是一个寒冷的周末 内心和外界都一样 It was a cold weekend, outside and in.
比尔并未出现 Bill didn't come at all.
玛格不知道他在哪儿 也不在乎他在哪儿 Margo didn't know where he was and didn't care, she kept saying.
沿路上她说个不停 我们共渡周日 Somehow we staggered through Sunday,
周一下午 我们载玛格到车站时 and by the time we drove Margo to the station late Monday afternoon,
她和洛伊之间的不愉快已经化解 she and Lloyd had thawed out to the extent of being civil to each other.
几点了？ What time is it?
一分钟前你问时是5点42分 When you asked a minute ago, it was 5.42.
现在是5点43分 下一分钟你问时是5... It is now 5.43. When you ask again a minute from now...
我只是不愿玛格赶不上火车 I just don't want Margo to miss her train.
她快来不及到剧院了 As it is, she'll barely make the theatre.
5点55分 绝对来得及 5.55. We'll be at the station in plenty of time.
这里到纽约只要两个小时 That little place "just two hours from New York."
这件事我永远弄不清楚 It's on my list of things I'll never understand,
就像不懂为何有人要收集缩小的印地安人头颅一样 like collecting shrunken Indian heads.
你应该了解需要安静的意义 You should know what it means to want a little peace and quiet.
只有图书馆才需要安静 Peace and quiet is for libraries.
怎么了？拜托 Lloyd. Please.
只是稍微打滑而已 路面太滑了 Just a little skid, that's all. This road's like glass.
- 凯伦和我不想有任何意外发生 - 我也不想啊 - Karen and I just don't want an accident. - I don't intend to have an accident.
你想不想并不是重点 我们可是穿着长长的内衣 It isn't important whether you do. We are wearing long underwear.
这是怎么啦？ Now what's this?
不可能啊 汽油不可能没了 But it can't be. We can't be out of gas.
我昨天才去加油的 I filled it myself yesterday.
今天早上你开去布鲁斯特 不是还满的吗？ Wasn't it full when you drove to Brewster this morning?
大概吧 我没看 我是不会去注意这种事的 I didn't look. You know I don't pay attention to those things.
太不可思议了 Just incredible.
- 还有多少时间？- 大约10分钟 - How much time have we got? - Roughly ten minutes.
- 离车站多远？- 三 四哩吧 - How far is the station? - About three or four miles.
这附近有地方可以加油吗？ Any houses where we can borrow gas?
这种荒郊野外连农舍都很少见 There's not much along this back road.
车子也不多见 搭便车是不太可能了 Not many cars either. Not much chance of a lift.
光是坐在这里等也不是办法 我去碰碰运气 No sense in sitting here. I'm gonna walk up about half a mile, just in case.
- 想听吗？- 随便 - You want it on? - It doesn't matter.
我不喜欢靡靡之音 I detest cheap sentiment.
- 凯伦 - 嗯哼 - Karen? - Mm-hm?
不 谢了 No, thank you.
这个周末我很扫你们的兴 I haven't been very pleasant this weekend.
最近我们的压力都很大 We've all been a little tense lately.
这几个星期来 我总是阴晴不定 Come to think of it, I haven't been very pleasant for weeks.
我对这件事感到非常抱歉 For that, I'm truly sorry.
希望你和洛依不要生我的气 More than any two people I know, I don't want you and Lloyd to be angry with me.
我们并不是真的生气 只是对你的行为感到不悦 We're never deeply angry. We just get mad the way you do.
我们太了解你了 We know you too well.
太多人了解我了 So many people know me.
我也希望能是 I wish I did.
我希望有人能告诉我是一个什么样的人 I wish someone would tell me about me.
你是玛格 独一无二的玛格 You're Margo. Just Margo.
玛格是谁？除了是个聚光灯下的女伶之外 And what is that? Besides something spelled out in light bulbs, I mean.
除了情绪容易失控之外 除了是个会泼妇 Besides a temperament, which consists mostly of swooping about on a broomstick
破口大骂之外 and screaming at the top of my voice.
我的行为就像个婴孩一样 Infants behave the way I do, you know.
婴孩的行为总是容易失控 They carry on and misbehave.
如果知道他们一定会喝得大醉 They'd get drunk if they knew how,
当得不到他们想要的东西时 when they can't have what they want.
当感觉到自己不被需要 When they feel unwanted
没有安全感或是得不到爱时 or insecure or...
他们一定会变得不可理喻的 ...unloved.
- 比尔呢？- 比尔？ - What about Bill? - What about Bill?
他爱你 He's in love with you.
我爱比尔胜于一切 而且我需要他 More than anything in this world, I love Bill. And I want Bill.
而且我需要他需要我 And I want him to want me.
我希望他需要的是我 而不是玛格·钱宁 But me, not Margo Channing.
如果连我都无法分辨出她们 And if I can't tell them apart,
他怎么能够分辨出来呢？ how can he?
他为什么需要呢？你为什么需要呢？ Well, why should he and why should you?
比尔爱玛格·钱宁 Bill's in love with Margo Channing.
他与她并肩作战并爱着她 He's fought with her, worked with her, loved her.
但10年后 玛格·钱宁将不再具有魅力 But ten years from now Margo Channing will have ceased to exist.
到时候只剩下什么？ And what's left will be... What?
玛格 比尔只小你8岁 Margo, Bill is all of eight years younger than you.
我们的差距会愈来愈大的 Those years stretch as the years go on.
这种例子我看太多了 I've seen it happen too often.
这种情况不会发生在你和比尔身上的 Not to you, not to Bill.
大家总是这么说 Isn't that what they always say?
我该知道引擎不转动就没有暖气 I don't suppose the heater runs if the motor doesn't.
可笑吧？ Silly, isn't it?
你还是乖乖坐在车内保暖吧 You'd think they'd fix it so people could just sit in a car and keep warm.
谈谈夏娃吧... About Eve.
我对她一直相当不友善 I've acted pretty disgracefully toward her too.
别试着为我找藉口 Don't fumble for excuses.
我在向你说出真心话 Not here and now with my hair down.
充其量 只能说我是过度敏感 At best, let's say
因为她是那么年轻 I've been oversensitive to...
那么有女人味又那么无助 Well, to the fact that she's so young, so feminine and so helpless.
拥有那么多 我想呈献给比尔的东西 To so many things I want to be for Bill.
一言难尽啊 女人的事业 It's funny, a woman's career.
为了攀上高峰而牺牲这一切 The things you drop on your way up so you can move faster.
你忘了当你回头想再当女人时 你还会需要一切 You forget you'll need them again when you get back to being a woman.
天底下所有的女性都有一项共同的事业 That's one career all females have in common,
不管我们喜不喜欢 whether we like it or not.
那就是当个女人 Being a woman.
迟早我们都必须用心经营 Sooner or later, we've got to work at it.
不管我们拥有多少其他的事业 No matter how many other careers
或是我们有多少想做的事业 we've had or wanted.
终究 一切都比不上 And in the last analysis, nothing's any good unless you can
当你看着餐桌时 look up just before dinner or
或是在床上翻身时 他就你眼前 turn around in bed and there he is.
尽管你认识一切 Without that, you're not a woman.
达官贵人和社会名流 You're something with a French provincial office or a... A book full of clippings.
但你仍称不上是个女人 But you're not a woman.
布幕缓缓落下 剧终 Slow curtain. The end.
玛格 我想让你知道我很抱歉 Margo. Margo, I want you to know how sorry I am about this.
- 抱歉什么？- 这件事 - About what? - This.
我难以表达我的歉意 I can't tell you how sorry I am.
别放在心上了 命运总是在捉弄人 Don't give it a thought. One of destiny's merry pranks.
况且汽油又不是你漏的 After all, you didn't personally drain the gasoline tank yourself.
夏娃的表现果然是精彩 Eve, of course, was superb.
尽管许多观众希望 Many of the audience
下次再来看玛格的演出 understandably preferred to return another time to see Margo.
但仍有许多观众对夏娃报以热烈的掌声 But those who remained cheered loudly, lustily and long for Eve.
她真是体贴入微 那一天下午打电话邀请我 How thoughtful of her to call and invite me that afternoon.
而且恰巧当时有许多 And what a happy coincidence that several representatives
报社的记者在场 of other newspapers happened to be present.
我们全部受邀去观赏 All of us invited that afternoon
一位由替身演出 to attend an understudy's performance,
连管理部门事先都不知情的戏 about which the management knew nothing
直到9点 他们被迫拉开布幕为止 until they were forced to ring up the curtain at nine o'clock.
巧合啊 Coincidence.
孩子 你的表现不只是还好而已 You were better than all right.
你的表演获得热烈的回响 You rang a bell.
尽管仍有些瑕疵但瑕不掩瑜 Little things here and there, but it doesn't matter.
重要的是 你能以自己为荣 你有这个权利 Be proud of yourself. You've got a right to be.
你以我为荣吗 比尔？ Are you proud of me, Bill?
我必须承认 马克斯打电话给我时 I admit I was worried when Max called.
我很担心 我心中充满问号 I had my doubts.
你不该有任何疑虑的 You shouldn't have had any doubts.
总之 前几天 After all, the other day was one scene.
你是缺乏经验 The woods are full of one-scene sensations.
不过 你办到了 But you did it.
凭着你的努力和耐心 你会成为一位好演员的 With work and patience, you'll be a good actress
- 如果你想的话 - 你想让我成为好演员吗？ - if that's what you wanna be. - Is that what you want me to be?
- 我是在谈你 你想吗？- 我也是在谈你 - I'm talking about you and what you want. - So am I.
- 这件事与我何干？- 一切 - What have I got to do with it? - Everything.
我是不会藉职务之便吃女星豆腐的 祝你幸运 The names I've been called, but never Svengali. Good luck.
别逃避 比尔 Don't run away, Bill.
逃避什么？ From what would I be running?
你在舞台上一直在追求真理 舞台下呢？ You're always after truth on the stage. What about off?
为真理而活 I'm for it.
那么就面对它吧 我一直在面对它 Then face it. I have.
从我们在此见面的那一夜开始 Ever since that first night in here.
我告诉你每个年轻女演员都应该知道的事开始？ I told you what every actress should know.
你告诉我之后 我的成就全归功于你 You told me that whatever I became, it would be because of you.
- 妆太浓了一些 - 也全是为你 - Make-up's a little heavy. - And for you.
- 你真不简单 - 你这么认为？ - You're quite a girl. - You think?
我爱的人是玛格 难道你没听说？ I'm in love with Margo. Hadn't you heard?
人总会听到各种流言 You hear all kinds of things.
我只是个凡人 人言可畏 I'm only human, rumors to the contrary,
我和天下的男人都一样好奇 and I'm as curious as the next man.
- 那么就去找出答案 - 只有一件事 - Find out. - Only thing:
我只追求我想追求的 what I go after I want to go after.
不愿它来追求我 I don't want it to come after me.
别哭 人生难免有遗憾 Don't cry. Just score it as an incomplete forward pass.
谁？ Who is it?
我可以进来吗？ May I come in?
当然 杜威先生 Certainly, Mr. DeWitt.
我以为这房间会挤满你的崇拜者 I expected to find this room with a theatreful of people at your feet.
他们不对我丢东西 我就谢天谢地了 I'm lucky they didn't throw things.
我对你今晚杰出的表现 一点都感到不惊讶 Your performance was no surprise to me.
在我前几天看过你的试镜之后 After the other day, I regarded it as simply a promise fulfilled.
您太抬举我了 不过这仍是钱宁小姐的戏 You're more than kind. But it's still Miss Channing's performance.
我不过是个替身罢了 I'm the carbon copy you read when you can't find the original.
你太谦虚了 You're more than modest.
这不是谦虚 我只是不想欺骗自己罢了 It's not modesty. I don't try to kid myself.
我想提供你一个颠覆传统 A revolutionary approach to the theatre.
- 进军戏剧界的方式 - 请说 - But if I may make a suggestion... - Please do.
我想你不该再屈躬卑膝 I think the time has come to shed some of your humility.
不稍微自我宣传 就和过分膨胀自己一样虚伪 It is just as false not to blow your horn at all as it is to blow it too loudly.
我认为自己没做过什么值得自吹自擂的 I don't think I've done anything to sound off about.
世上的每一个人都有些许的自负 We come into this world with our little egos equipped with individual horns.
如果不自我宣传 谁会替你宣传？ If we don't blow them, who else will?
即使如此 但一个替身精彩的演出 Even so. One pretty good performance by an understudy,
观众很快就会淡忘的 it'll be forgotten tomorrow.
未必 It needn't be.
即使我想不再屈躬卑膝 开始自我宣传 Even if I wanted to, as you say, be less humble, blow my own horn,
我该怎么做？我不过是个无名小卒 how would I do it? I'm less than nobody.
- 我是个大人物 - 你的确是个大人物 - I'm somebody. - You certainly are.
门别全关 这样我们才能继续聊 Leave the door open a bit, so we can talk.
你换好衣服之后 如果你没有事 After you change, if you're not busy elsewhere,
我们可以一起吃晚餐 we could have supper.
乐意之至 或是我应该假装我还有事？ I'd love to. Or should I pretend I'm busy?
不用假装你还有事 Let's have a minimum of pretending.
我想写一篇有关你的专栏 I shall want to do a column about you.
我还不够你写上一段 I'm not even enough for a paragraph.
可能不只一段 Perhaps more than one.
我对你充满好奇 There's so much I want to know.
你的过去我时有所闻 I've heard your story in part.
你在辛斯康辛的老家 你那令人鼻酸的婚姻 Your home in Wisconsin, your tragic marriage,
你对玛格疯狂的迷恋 your fanatical attachment to Margo.
从旧金山开始吧？ It started in San Francisco, didn't it?
你对玛格的崇拜 是从旧金山开始的吧？ I say your idolatry of Margo started in San Francisco, didn't it?
对 That's right.
旧金山 加州沙漠中一块文明的绿洲 San Francisco, an oasis of civilization in the California desert.
你同意我这样赞美旧金山吗？ Tell me, do you share my high opinion of San Francisco?
同意 Yes, I do.
你被玛格的舞台魅力所吸引的那一夜... And that memorable night when Margo first dazzled you from the stage,
什么剧院？舒伯特？ what theatre was it in San Francisco? Was it the Shubert?
对 舒伯特 Yes, the Shubert.
舒伯特 一座古老的剧院 充满传统 Fine old theatre, the Shubert. Full of tradition.
并未受到地震及大火所波及 Untouched by the earthquake. Or should I say fire?
你丈夫叫什么名字？ Tell me, what was your husband's name?
- 艾迪 - 艾迪什么？ - Eddie. - Eddie what?
我要冲个澡 听不到你的话了 I'm about to go into the shower. I won't be able to hear you.
我可以等 Well, it can wait.
你想去哪儿吃？ Where would you like to go?
我们一定要让今夜成为特别的一夜 We must make this a special night.
你作主 You take charge.
我相信我会的 I believe I will.
有些早报稍微提到夏娃的演出 Some morning papers carried a squib about Eve's performance.
尽管篇幅不大 但都是赞美之词 Not much, but full of praise.
我无法想像 他们如何知道她的演出 I couldn't imagine how they found out about it.
不过洛伊说 这是马克斯的宣传人员所为 But Lloyd said Max's publicity man probably sent out the story.
总之 我自责不已 At any rate, I felt terribly guilty and ashamed of myself
更想彻底忘掉这件事 and wanted nothing so much as to forget the whole thing.
我和玛格 在"21"餐厅共进午餐 Margo and I were having lunch at 21,
就像一般的姐妹淘 just like girlfriends, with hats on.
- 钱宁小姐来了没？- 还没 - Has Miss Channing come in? - Not yet.
谢谢 Thank you.
夏娃 大家都对你的演出感到赞叹不已 Oh, Eve! I've heard the most wonderful things about your performance.
没有出洋相我就谢天谢地了 Relief that I managed to stagger through it.
她的演出令人激赏 She was magnificent.
- 那么说你也知道 - 当时我在场 - Then you've heard, too. - I was there.
- 你也在场？昨晚的演出？- 纯属巧合 - You were at the play last night? - A happy coincidence.
我们将和一位星探一起吃饭 We're having lunch with a talent scout.
他们的手脚还真快啊 They certainly don't waste much time.
- 八字都还没一撇呢 - 只是吃个饭罢了 - It's nothing definite. Just lunch. - They'll be wasting their time.
他们只会浪费时间的 夏娃根本无意到好莱坞发展 Eve has no intention of going to Hollywood.
从你的打扮看来 我猜你将和一位女士共进午餐 By your smart dress, I take it your companion is a lady?
- 玛格 - 玛格会在公共场所吃饭？ - Margo. - Margo lunching in public?
玛格变了 不过迟到的毛病依然没变 It's a new Margo, but she's just as late as the old one.
她迟到的时间 可能会超出你的想像 She may be later than you think.
何不看我的专栏打发时间？ Why not read my column to pass the time?
- 时间一转眼就过了 - 谢谢 - The minutes will fly like hours. - Thank you, Addison.
现在我们得去见 那个求才若渴的星探 Now we must join our sunburned eager beaver.
- 再见了凯伦 - 再见 - Goodbye, Karen. - Goodbye.
"我将最近几年 这顶紧靠在耳际的帽子 "And so my hat which has, lo, these many seasons,
脱下向赫灵顿致敬 "become firmly rooted about my ears, is lifted to Miss Harrington.
我又再度在街上手舞足蹈 在屋顶大叫" "I am available for dancing in the streets and shouting from the housetops."
老套了 这里...你听 I thought that one went out with Woollcott. Now listen to this.
"赫小姐有很多话要说 这些专栏将忠实报导 "Miss Harrington had much to tell and these columns shall report her faithfully
有关剧场的陋规 有关中年的女演员继续演出 "about the lamentable practice in our theatre of permitting
需要由充满活力的年轻演员 "mature actresses to continue playing roles
所扮演的角色" "requiring a youth and vigor of which they retain but a dim memory."
- 我简直不敢相信 - 这里更过分 - I just can't believe it. - It gets better.
"有关戏剧界的第一夫人 "About the understandable reluctance of our entrenched first ladies of the stage
不愿提携后进 "to encourage, shall we say, younger actresses,
和有关赫小姐独立争取演出机会的相关报导" "and Miss Harrington's unsupported struggle for opportunity."
真不敢相信夏娃会说这样的话 I can't believe Eve said those things.
在这场激烈的竞争中 In this rat race,
每个人在证明自己无罪之前都有罪 everybody's guilty till proved innocent.
这是剧场和文明的不同之处之一 One of the differences between the theatre and civilization.
我不懂 What gets me
为何所有报社记者都刚好看了那场表演 is how all the papers happened to catch that particular performance.
洛依说那是一场开放给媒体观赏的演出 Lloyd says it's a publicity release.
这小妖精一定是无所不用其极 The witch must have sent out Indian Runners,
把所有的评论家找来 snatching critics out of bars, steam rooms and museums or wherever they hole up.
这次她再也难推其咎了 She won't get away with it.
艾迪森和他的毒笔也一样 Nor will Addison DeWitt and his poison pen.
如果演员协会或是我的律师 If Equity or my lawyer
无法为我讨回公道 can't or won't do anything about it,
我就亲手将这只迷途的羔羊 I shall personally stuff that pathetic little lost lamb
送进杜威先生的口中 down Mr. DeWitt's ugly throat!
我看见那篇报导之后 就立刻赶来 I came as soon as I read that piece of filth.
我一路跑来 I ran all the way.
宝贝 比尔来了 Bill's here, baby.
没事了 Everything's all right now.
我还是让你们小俩口独处吧 I guess at this point I'm what the French call "de trop."
心领了 Maybe just a little around the edges.
从头至尾 这都是艾迪一手策划的 It's Addison from start to finish.
上面还滴着他特有的毒液 It drips with his brand of venom.
利用小女孩的无知扭曲她的言语 Taking advantage of a kid, twisting her words,
逼她说他要她说的话 making her say what he wanted her to say.
- 这些话是谁告诉你的？- 夏娃 - Where did you get all that information? - Eve.
- 夏娃？- 她来找过我 - Eve? - She's been to see me.
老实说 你进来之前她才刚走 She left just before you came in.
你们刚好没见到面 You just missed her.
- 真可惜 - 她想解释有关访问的事 - That was a pity. - Wanted to explain about the interview.
想向玛格道歉 却又不敢面对她 Wanted to apologize to someone, and didn't dare face Margo.
- 这就奇怪了 - 她一直哭无法把话说完 - I wonder why. - She started talking and couldn't finish.
她哭得好伤心 She cried so.
我衡量过我们的经济状况 I've been going over our financial position,
如果你不介意我这么说... if you'll pardon the expression.
你把话题转得太快了 That's quite a change of subject.
缴税的时间又到了 What with taxes coming up, and,
由于我只是个剧作家 不是个石油大亨 since I'm a playwright and not an oil-well operator,
我一直在想... I was thinking...
我一直试着了解你在说什么 I'm trying hard to follow you.
如果不等到下季就演出 Instead of waiting until next season to do Footsteps on the Ceiling,
"天花板上的脚印" which is in pretty good shape,
如果玛格 愿意巡回演出"林中岁月" and if Margo can be talked into going on tour with Aged in Wood,
我们就可以马上制作"脚印"一剧 we could put Footsteps into production right away.
- 我渐渐听懂了 - 如果我们能选对演员 - I'm beginning to catch up. - If we can cast it properly, that is.
挑个年轻的来演？ Maybe get some younger actress?
一个和剧中人相符的人？ Someone who'd look the part as well as play it?
这样一定能带来新鲜感 You've got to admit, it'd be a novelty.
你是引述艾迪森还是夏娃的话？ Now you're quoting Addison or Eve.
夏娃的确曾提过这部作品 但只是稍微提起 Eve did mention the play, but in passing.
她并没有要求演出"可拉" 这样的角色 She'd never have the nerve to ask to play a part like Cora.
夏娃会要求牛郎把织女的角色让她演 Eve would ask Abbott to give her Costello.
不会的 这只是我和她讨论这部作品时突然想到的 I got the idea myself while she was talking about the play.
- 还带手势 - 这是我头一遭无须任何妥协 - With gestures, of course. - To write something
写出一部完整的作品 and have it realized completely. For once, not to compromise.
洛依·理查德 你千万不能将可拉的角色 Lloyd Richards, do not consider
给那个小贱人演 giving that contemptible little worm the part of Cora!
你在说什么 Now just a minute...
多年来 玛格并不是只是个"妥协" Margo's not been exactly a compromise.
世上有半数的剧作家前仆后继想得到那个妥协 Playwrights everywhere would give their shirts for that compromise.
等等 Now just a minute...
我突然想到夏娃的不忠与忘恩负义是会传染的 Eve's disloyalty and ingratitude must be contagious.
你这样小题大作和歇斯底里 只为了一个小孩 All this hysteria because of an impulsive excited kid
受到杜威纵容 而一时口无遮拦？ and a professional manure-slinger named DeWitt.
她道歉了 不是吗？ She apologized, didn't she?
双脚下跪 这一点毫无疑问 On her knees, I've no doubt.
感人落泪 极尽卑微之能事 Very touching. Very Academy of Dramatic Arts.
你离开学校后 说话开始就变得尖酸刻薄 That bitter cynicism is something you've acquired since you left Radcliffe.
尖酸刻薄？ That cynicism I acquired the day
我发现自己和小男孩不同时就这样了 I discovered I was different from little boys.
喂 Hello.
玛格 Oh, hi, Margo.
不 一点也不 No, not at all.
凯伦和我只是在闲聊 Karen and I were just chatting.
对 我相信我们能也十分愿意 Yes, I'm sure we can and I'm sure we'd love to.
对 11点45分左右 Right. 11.45ish.
到时候见了 See you then.
玛格和比尔要在今晚演完戏后 Margo and Bill want us to meet them at the Cub Room tonight
在"小熊厅"和我们喝两杯 after the theatre.
玛格·钱宁在小熊厅出现？ Margo Channing in the Cub Room.
这简直是太不可思议了 I couldn't be more surprised if she'd said Grant's tomb.
很高兴见到比尔回到她身边 I'm glad Bill's back.
他们是生命共同体 They'd die without each other.
我并没有答应夏娃任何事 I didn't promise Eve anything.
我只说她来演这个角色还不错 I said she'd be fine for the part
但仍有一些困难 but there were practical difficulties.
- 比方说 - 比方说...你 - Such as? - You, for one.
我说你希望玛格演这个角色 I told her you wanted Margo to play the part
我不会未经过你同意擅自做主的 and I would want your approval.
这还差不多 That's fine. Fine and dandy.
夏娃将来的一切要求都必须向我报备 Just refer all of Miss Eve Harrington's future requests to me.
我对表演艺术的评价并不高 The so-called art of acting is not one for which I have a particularly high regard.
- 说得好 - 但你可以引述我下面的话 - Hear, hear. - But you may quote me as follows.
"今晚玛格·钱宁小姐演出 你那差劲无比的戏剧 "Tonight Miss Margo Channing gave a performance in your cockamamie play,
但她却能化腐朽为神奇 令我想一看再看" "the like of which I have never seen before and expect rarely to see again."
他并没有夸大其词 我的确不俗 He does not exaggerate. I was good.
你简直是化腐朽为神奇 You were great.
真是一个美好的夜晚 Quite a night.
我知道你的替身赫小姐已经表示退出 I hear your understudy, a Miss Harrington, has given her notice.
- 真糟糕 - 真是令人遗憾 - Too bad. - I'm broken up about it.
有时 你不能拿起香槟就一饮而尽 You just can't pick up champagne and drink it.
如何干杯是很有学问的 Somebody's got to be very witty about a toast.
我诚心举杯 无须任何学问 I shall propose the toast, without wit, with all my heart.
向玛格干杯 To Margo.
- 我的准新娘 - 哈里路亚 - To my bride- to- be. - Glory hallelujah.
- 玛格 - 干 - Margo. - Drink.
对呀 什么时候？ 什么时候结婚？ When? When are you going to do it?
明天10点市政府见 Tomorrow we meet at City Hall at ten.
- 你一定会准时哦 - 遵命 - And you're going to be on time. - Yes, sir.
市政府？那地方还不够气派 City Hall, that's for prizefighters and reporters.
大教堂 教主和花团锦簇才够光彩 I see a cathedral, banks of flowers...
只是为了一张证书 It's only for the license.
验血报告要等三天及诸如此类的琐事 There's a three-day wait for blood tests.
即使你没有血 我也会嫁你的 I'll marry you if it turns out you have no blood at all.
- 你打算穿什么？- 简单就好 - What are you going to wear? - Something simple,
晚礼服套皮毛大衣 a fur coat over a nightgown.
重点是 不论在大教堂 棒球场或是电动游戏场 The point is this. In a cathedral, a ballpark or a penny arcade,
我们都要你们这两个最亲近的朋友在我们身旁 we want you two beside us, as our nearest and dearest friends.
我们会的 永远都会的 Which we are. Which we'll always be.
这是人生中难忘的一刻 我们把它铭记在心吧 There are very few moments in life as good as this. Let's remember it.
敬我们从未如此接近 To each of us and all of us, never have we been more close.
愿我们永远如此亲近 May we never be farther apart.
- 理查德太太吗？- 我就是 - Mrs. Richards? - Yes.
- 给你的 - 谢谢 - For you. - Thank you.
真是不知礼数 大庭广众之下拿情书给你 Very indiscreet. A note in the open like that.
下回告诉你的爱人 吐个烟圈或是敲杯子 Next time, tell your lover to blow smoke rings or tap a glass.
洛依 别吃醋 Lloyd, I want you to be big about this.
这世界在今晚充满了爱 没有一个女人是安全的 The world is full of love tonight. No woman is safe.
厚颜无耻莫过于此 Well, this beats all world's records for running, jumping or standing gall.
"请原谅我突然打断 你们快乐的聚会 "Forgive my butting in to what seems such a happy occasion,
但我非和你谈谈不可 请务必要来" "but it's important that I speak with you.
而且她还在 "'Please"' and that's underlined,
"化妆室见 夏娃"下画线 "meet me in the ladies' room. Eve."
现在我知道她是那里的临时工 I understand she's now the understudy in there.
给我那个空瓶 或许我能在那儿找到她 Hand me that empty bottle. I may find her.
大情圣在那儿 Well, look. There's Rasputin.
再来一瓶香槟 Encore du champagne.
- 再来一瓶香槟 钱宁小姐？- 没错 小弟 - More champagne, Miss Channing? - That's what I said, bub.
或许她是只想道歉 Maybe she just wants to apologize.
我对她想说什么毫无兴趣 I have no interest in anything she may say.
她能说什么呢？我很好奇 But what could she say? That's what fascinates me.
- 去听听吧 - 凯伦 多年来我们的友谊 - Go on, find out. - Karen, in all the years of our friendship,
我从未让你独自走进化妆室 I have never let you go to the ladies' room alone.
但现在我不得不这么做 我必须去了解里面 Now I must. I am busting to find out
那颗忐忑不安的心在想什么 what's going on in that feverish little brain waiting in there.
好吧 Well... All right.
凯伦 Karen!
真有礼貌 How nice.
帅呆了 但为何拿我出气？ Very effective, but why take it out on me?
我好担心你不来 I was wondering whether you'd come at all.
别起来 也别摆出一副太后的架式 Don't get up. And don't act as if I were the Queen Mother.
我知道你不会对我和言悦色的 I don't expect you to be pleasant.
我也没这个打算 I don't intend to be.
能坐下来吗？ Can't we sit down just for a minute?
我有许多话对你说 但我却难以启齿 I've got a lot to say and none of its easy.
- 不可能 - 但事实却是如此 - There can't be very much. - But there is.
不论是否难以启齿 总之我是不会相信的 Easy or not, I won't believe a word of it.
你应该吗？ Why should you?
请坐 Please sit down.
我一直认为自己是个聪明的女孩 You know, I've always considered myself a very clever girl.
自己有个聪明的脑袋 Smart, good head on my shoulders, that sort of thing.
从未失言 Never the wrong word at the wrong time.
直到遇上艾迪森为止 But then I'd never met Addison DeWitt.
我记得一次拔牙的经验 I remember I had a tooth pulled once.
他们为我注射了麻醉药 我忘了药名 They gave me some anaesthetic. I don't remember the name.
药效非常奇怪 It affected me strangely.
我说了一些未经大脑思考过的话 I found myself saying things I wasn't even thinking.
仿佛我的灵魂已经出了窍 无法控制我言行 As if my mind was outside of my body and couldn't control what I did or said.
- 你和艾迪森谈话时也有这种感觉 - 可以这么说 - And you felt like that talking to Addison? - In a way.
我试着想照着自己的意义说 You find yourself trying to say what you mean,
但说出的话却改变了 but somehow the words change.
变成了他的话 They become his words.
我突然无法说出自己的话 而说着他的话 And suddenly you're not saying what you mean, but what he means.
你期望我会相信那些话 Do you expect me to believe that you didn't say any of that?
是他说的而不是你说的吗？ That they were all Addison?
我并不期望你会相信 I don't expect you to believe anything,
我承认错误 我自取其辱 except that the responsibility is mine, and the disgrace.
别再假惺惺了 Let's not get overdramatic.
你对我的评价很低吧？ You really have a low opinion of me, haven't you?
告诉你一个好消息 I'll give you some pleasant news.
我已成为众矢之的 I've been told off in no uncertain terms, all over town.
钱宁小姐知道后 一定会很开心的 Miss Channing should be happy to hear that.
知道她的朋友是何等的忠心 To know how loyal her friends are,
知道我对她 比她心中所想的还要忠心 how much more loyal than she had a right to expect me to be.
- 夏娃 别哭 - 我没哭 - Eve, don't cry. - I'm not crying.
告诉我你为何和来自好莱坞的人共进午餐？ Tell me, how did your luncheon turn out with the man from Hollywood?
只为了一个试镜机会 Some vague promises of a test.
争取一个演出的机会 If a particular part should come along, one of those things.
但你的演出已获得媒体的赞赏 But the raves about your performance...
一个替身的演出 An understudy's performance.
你太悲观了 如果没别的事... Well, I think you're painting the picture a little blacker than it is, really.
别低估艾迪森 Don't underestimate him.
你的这个朋友是个有力人士 You have a powerful friend in Addison.
他不是我的朋友 你们曾是我的朋友 He's not my friend. You were my friends.
- 他可以帮你 - 我真后悔认识他 - He can help you. - I wish I'd never met him.
我希望他下地狱 I'd like him to be dead.
我要我的朋友回来 I want my friends back.
夏娃 我认为你并非想造成不愉快 Eve. I don't think you meant to cause unhappiness.
但结果却是如此 But you did.
而且使自己比任何人都不快乐 More to yourself perhaps, as it turned out, than to anyone else.
- 我永远都无法走出这个阴影 - 你会的 - I'll never get over it. - Oh, yes, you will.
你们这些戏剧人一向如此 You theatre people always do.
戏剧界中没有所谓的永远 Nothing is forever in the theatre.
不论它是什么 它就在这儿 它会引燃 燃烧 Whatever it is, it's here, it flares up, burns hot,
随后消失 and it's gone.
- 但愿我能相信 - 给自己一点时间 - I wish I could believe that. - Give yourself time.
别太在乎别人怎么想 Don't worry too much about what people think.
你既年轻又才华洋溢 You're very young and very talented.
信不信由你 如果有任何需要我... And, believe it or not, if there's anything I can do...
的确有 There is something.
- 我知道 - 你能做一件最重要的事 - I think I know. - Something most important you can do.
你想演可拉这个角色 You wanna play Cora.
你要我告诉洛伊我认为应该由你来演 You want me to tell Lloyd I think you should play it.
如果你告诉他 他会让我演的 他答应过我 If you told him so, he'd give me the part. He said he would.
你竟会这样的说 After all you've said.
难道你不知道这角色是为玛格所写的吗？ Don't you know that part was written for Margo?
那是15年前的事了 It might've been 15 years ago.
现在 这个角色应该由我来演 It's my part now.
你的口气就像艾迪森所写的你一样狂妄 You talk just as Addison said you did.
可拉是我的角色 你回去告诉洛依它是我的 Cora is my part. You've got to tell Lloyd.
办不到 Nothing in the world will make me say that.
艾迪森要我扮演这个角色 Addison wants me to play it.
- 除非我死 - 未必 - Over my dead body. - That won't be necessary.
艾迪森知道玛格为何没赶上那场演出 Addison knows how Margo happened to miss that performance,
我知道她无法演出时 及时打电话通知所有的报社 how I happened to know she'd miss it in time to notify every paper in town.
这个故事非常精彩 It's quite a story. Addison could make quite a thing of it.
试想他会用多么严厉的口气 Imagine how snide and vicious he could get,
说出真相 and still tell nothing but the truth.
我劝了他很久 I had a time persuading him.
你最好坐下 你有点站不稳 You better sit down. You look a bit wobbly.
如果我演出可拉 他就不会将真相公诸于世 If I play Cora, Addison will never tell what happened, in or out of print.
互相帮忙 A simple exchange of favors.
真高兴 我终于能为你做点事了 I'm so happy I can do something for you at long last.
你和玛格之间的友谊 Your friendship with Margo,
你们之间深厚的友谊 your deep, close friendship.
将会产生什么样的变化 What would happen to it
如果她知道你为了我而陷害她 if she knew the cheap trick you played on her for my benefit?
你和洛伊 戏剧界的人要多久 You and Lloyd, how long, even in the theatre,
才会忘记这件事？ before people forgot what happened and trusted you again?
忘不了的 No.
如果由我来扮演可拉 大家就能相安无事 It would be so much easier for everyone concerned if I were to play Cora.
对整个戏剧界也有利 So much better theatre, too.
一出戏中的一个角色 A part in a play.
你做的这一切只为了一出戏中的一个角色 You'd do all that just for a part in a play?
为争取这么好的角色 我还能做出更多事 I'd do much more for a part that good.
饿了吗？ Hungry?
我并不意外 在你受了这么多辱耻之后 I'm not surprised, after all that humble pie.
没这回事 我和凯伦相谈甚欢 Nothing of the kind. Karen and I had a nice talk.
女人之间的谈心？ Heart to heart? Woman to woman?
包括提及 你想扮演可拉这个角色？ Including a casual reference to the part of Cora and your hopes of playing it?
我坦白 I discussed it very openly.
告诉她我向洛伊提过 而且他也乐观其成 I told her I'd spoken to Lloyd, and that he was interested.
凯伦一定是告诉你 玛格想扮演那个角色 And Karen mentioned, of course, that Margo expects to play the part?
奇怪的是 她并未提到玛格 Oddly enough, she didn't say a word about Margo.
她只说她会尽力帮我争取到那个角色 Just that she'll be happy to do what she can to see that I play it.
就这样？ Just like that, eh?
就这样 Just like that.
夏娃 有时我总认为你对我有所隐瞒 You know, Eve, sometimes I think you keep things from me.
- 这笑话并不好笑 - 我说的是实话 - I don't think that's funny. - It wasn't meant to be.
我对你所透露的秘密和对你的信赖 I confide in you and rely on you
比我对任何人还要多 more than anyone I've ever known.
我现在说出这样的话 To say a thing like that now, without any reason,
当我在最需要你的时候 when I need you more than ever.
希望你说的是实话 I hope you mean what you say.
希望你能说到做到 I intend to hold you to it.
我们之间有许多共同之处 We have a great deal in common, it seems to me.
- 情况如何？- 没什么 她向我道了歉 - Well, what happened? - Nothing much. She apologized.
-痛哭失声？- 痛哭失声 - With tears? - With tears.
但不是一见面就痛哭失声 先兵后礼 But not right away. First fight them back, chin up, stout fellow.
- 没错 - 这是她拿手的模式 - Check. - Very classy. Lots of technique.
你是说这一回她只是向你道歉？ You mean all this time she's done nothing but apologize?
你如何回应？ What did you say?
没什么 Not much.
新郎 我能要一个结婚礼物吗？ Groom, may I have a wedding present?
- 你要什么 德州？- 我要大家绝口不提夏娃 - What would you like? Texas? - I want everybody to shut up about Eve.
我是我唯一的要求 Just shut up about Eve. That's all I want.
给凯伦再倒杯酒 Give Karen more wine.
我从未这么快乐过 Never have I been so happy.

同时将目光集中在我身上 all with their eyes on me,
等待我用酒瓶 去敲那小贱人的头 waiting for me to crack that little gnome on the noggin with a bottle.
但不是今晚 But not tonight.
今晚我要宽大为怀 即使是对夏娃我要饶了她 I'm forgiving tonight. Even Eve. I forgive Eve.
他们要走了 There they go.
夏娃走了 There goes Eve.
小妖精夏娃 Eve Evil, little Miss Evil.
但塞翁失马... 这句话怎么说 新郎倌？ But "the evil that men do..." How does that go, groom?
焉知非福 Something about the good they leave behind.
我曾在威凯斯巴瑞扮演过这个角色 I played it once in rep in Wilkes-Barre.
你的确是因祸得福 You've got it backwards, even for Wilkes-Barre.
知道我为何会原谅夏娃吗？ Do you know why I forgive Eve?
因为她促成了一件好事 She left good behind.
她使我们四人能聚集在此 The four of us here together,
这是夏娃的错 而我原谅了她 it's Eve fault. I forgive her.
还有比尔 特别是比尔 她也有份 And Bill, especially Bill. She did that too.
或许她是出于一片好意 You know, she probably means well after all.
- 她是卑鄙的小人 - 别想猜透玛格这个人 - She is a louse. - Never try to outguess Margo.
- 新郎 - 什么事 亲爱的？ - Groom? - Yes, dear.
- 知道我将成为什么样的人吗？- 牛仔？ - Do you know what I'm going to be? - A cowboy?
已婚女子 还有一张证书 - A married lady. - With a paper to prove it.
我在6点时抬头一看 他就在眼前 I'm going to look up at six o'clock, and there he'll be.
- 还记得吗 凯伦？- 记得 - Remember, Karen? - I remember.
你会出现在我眼前吧？ You'll be there, won't you?
我会尽到做丈夫的义务的 Often enough to keep the franchise.
不再假扮 不论是在台下或台下 No more make-believe, offstage or on.
记得吗 洛伊？从现在开始 Remember, Lloyd? I mean it now.
洛伊 你愿意向我保证 不生我的气？ Lloyd, will you promise not to be angry with me?
- 这得视情况而定 - 我是指勃然大怒 - That depends. - No, I mean deeply angry.
我不会的 I don't think I could be.
我不想扮演可拉了 Well, I don't want to play Cora.
- 什么？- 别激动 你对他的戏剧总是挑剔不已 - What? - You're always so touchy about his plays.
这与角色无关 It isn't the part.
这是一出杰出的戏剧了不起的角色 It's a great part and a fine play.
但不再适合我了 But not for me anymore.
不再适合一个即将结婚的女人 Not for a foursquare, upright, downright, forthright, married lady.
结婚跟这件事何干？ What's your being married got to do with it?
结婚代表 我终于能过个像样的生活 It means I've finally got a life to live.
我无须再晚上无事可做 I don't have to play parts I'm too old for
而扮演过于年轻的角色 just because I've got nothing to do with my nights.
洛伊 我知道你已拟好计划 相信我 我会配合的 Oh, Lloyd, I'll make it up to you, believe me.
我将继续巡回演出这出戏一年 I'll tour a year with this one, anything.
你能体谅吧？ Only you do understand, don't you?
- 什么事那么好笑？- 没事 - What's so funny? - Nothing.
- 没事？- 一切都那么可笑 - Nothing? - Everything. Everything's so funny.
洛依从未问过我 Lloyd never got around to asking
由夏娃演出可拉是否恰当 whether it was all right with me for Eve to play Cora.
说来奇怪 Bill, oddly enough,
比尔一开始拒绝导这出由夏娃演出的戏 refused to direct the play at first, with Eve in it.
洛伊和马克斯最后才说服他 Lloyd and Max finally won him over.
玛格从未来排演 Margo never came to rehearsal.
她说家里有太多杂务 "Too much to do around the house, " she said.
我从没想到比尔和洛伊 I'd never known Bill and Lloyd to fight as bitterly and often,
会为了夏娃而经常争执不休 and always over some business for Eve,
为了她的一个动作 或是念对白的方式 or a move, or the way she read a speech.
也不知道洛伊会干预比尔的指导 But I'd never known Lloyd to meddle as much with Bill's directing,
影响夏娃的方式 as far as it affected Eve, that is.
夏娃让他们不断起争执 Somehow Eve kept them going.
比尔没有坚持 洛伊似乎很开心 Bill stuck it out. Lloyd seemed happy.
我想 我最好还是不要再来看他们排练 And I thought it might be best if I skipped rehearsals from then on.
我总有预感会发生这种事 后来真的发生了 It seemed to me I had known always that it would happen. And here it was.
我感到非常无助 当你除了爱你的丈夫之外 I felt helpless. That helplessness you feel when you have no talent to offer,
无法给他任何东西时 你会感到无助 outside of loving your husband.
我怎么和她竞争？洛伊爱我的一切 How could I compete? Everything Lloyd loved about me,
他早就习以为常了 he'd gotten used to long ago.
喂 Hello?
谁？谁打电话来找理查德先生？ Who? Who's calling Mr. Richards?
我的名字并不重要 我住在夏娃·赫灵顿对面 My name wouldn't mean anything. I room across the hall from Eve Harrington.
她人不舒服 她整夜哭个不停 歇斯底里 She isn't well. She's been crying all night and she's hysterical.
不愿看医生 She doesn't want a doctor and...
谁打来的？怎么了？ Who is it? What's it all about?
赫小姐叫你打来吗？ Did Miss Harrington tell you to call?
没有 夏娃没有叫我打给他 Oh, no. Eve didn't say to call him.
但我曾看见他们在一起 I saw Mr. Richards with her a couple of times.
因此我想他们既然那么要好 I thought, they being such good friends...
喂 我是洛伊·理查德 This is Lloyd Richards.
夏娃在哪儿？我要跟她讲话 Where is Eve? Let me talk to her.
理查德先生 她在楼上的房间 Hello, Mr. Richards. She's upstairs in her room.
我实在不愿在深夜打扰你 I really hate to bother you this way,
但是依夏娃现在的状况 but the way Eve's been feeling,
我担心她明天无法前往新哈芬 I've been worried sick, what with her leaving tomorrow for New Haven.
叫她别担心 我马上到 Tell her not to worry. Tell her I'll be right over.
在戏剧界中康乃迪克的新哈芬 To the theatre world, New Haven, Connecticut,
是舒伯特剧院和塔福饭店之间的跳板 is a short stretch of sidewalk between the Shubert Theatre and the Taft Hotel,
这里就像是一座小城市 surrounded by what looks very much like a small city.
剧场经理会在这里举行"城外首演" It is here that managers have what are called out-of-town openings,
这是专为愿意出城的纽约客举行的首演 which are openings for New Yorkers who want to go out of town.
真是美好的一天 What a day. What a heavenly day.

明天早上 你将在不朽的海岸 Tomorrow morning, you will have won your beachhead
赢得自己的滩头 on the shores of immortality.
别再反覆说着 你将写的专栏内容 Stop rehearsing your column.
说来奇怪 艾迪森 Isn't it strange, Addison?
我以为自己会惊慌失措 想逃离这一切 I thought I'd be panic-stricken, want to run away or something.
但我却等不及今晚的来临 今晚的来临和逝去 Instead, I can't wait for tonight to come. To come and go.
你对明天早上那么有把握？ Are you that sure of tomorrow?
- 你没有吗？- 老实说有十足的把握 - Aren't you? - Frankly, yes.
今晚将是值得怀念的一夜 It'll be a night to remember.
我的一切梦想都将在今夜成真 It'll bring me everything I've ever wanted.
向过去道别 迈向新的道路 The end of an old road, the beginning of a new one.
- 一条铺满钻石与黄金的道路？- 你比我了解 - All paved with diamonds and gold? - You know me better than that.
铺满什么？ Paved with what, then?
星星 Stars.
几点了？ What time?
快四点了 Almost four.
还可以好好睡个午觉 Plenty of time for a nice, long nap.
昨晚我们就排演得差不多了 We rehearsed most of last night.
现在你睡得着？ You could sleep now, couldn't you?
- 为什么睡不着？- 果然是真正的杀手 - Why not? - The mark of a true killer.
好好养精蓄锐一番再出来战斗 Sleep tight, rest easy and come out fighting.
你为何称我为杀手？ Why did you call me a killer?
我说杀手？我是指高手 我搞混了 Did I say killer? I meant champion. I get my boxing terms mixed.
艾迪森 进来一下好吗？ Addison, come in for a minute, will you?
我有话告诉你 I've got something to tell you.
这套房不便宜 你这么奢侈？ Suites are for expense accounts. You're being extravagant.
钱是马克斯付的 Max is paying for it.
他和洛伊大吵了一架 但洛伊坚持要他付 He and Lloyd had a terrific row, but Lloyd insisted.
- 能为你倒杯饮料吗？- 也是马克斯买的？ - Can I fix you a drink? - With the reluctant compliments of Max?
是洛伊 我没这个习惯 Lloyd. I never have any.
他喜欢在下戏之后喝几杯 所以就叫人送上来 He likes a few drinks after we finish, so he sent it up.
苏打就好 洛依一定期望能在新哈芬创下记录 Some plain soda. Lloyd must be expecting a record run in New Haven.
这是为今晚准备的 你也是受邀者 That's for tonight. You're invited.
我们将在表演结束后 邀请大家上来 We're having everyone up after the performance.
我们？ "We are?"
洛依和我 Lloyd and I.
凯伦并未来这儿观赏首演令我感到很奇怪 I find it odd that Karen isn't here for the opening.
- 艾迪森 - 她对洛伊一向是 - Addison... - She was always so devoted to Lloyd.
死心塌地 至死不渝 One would think only death could keep her...
艾迪森 Addison.
刚才我说 这将是一个难忘的夜晚 I said this would be a night to remember,
我的美梦都在今夜成真 that it would bring me all I ever wanted.
哦 是的 有时是告别过去 Oh, yes. Something about an old road ending
迈向未来的星光大道 and a new one starting, all paved with stars.
我指的不只是在戏剧界 I didn't mean just the theatre.
还有什么？ What else?
洛伊·理查德 Lloyd Richards.
他即将离开凯伦并与我结婚 He's going to leave Karen. We're going to be married.
原来是洛伊 So that's it. Lloyd.
但这仍然与戏剧有关 Still just the theatre, after all.
这与戏剧毫无关系 It's nothing of the kind.
洛依和我彼此相爱 Lloyd loves me. I love him.
我对洛依和他的爱人一无所知 I know nothing of Lloyd's loves.
但我却对你十分了解 I leave those to Louisa May Alcott. But I know you.
我爱洛伊 I'm in love with Lloyd.
洛伊是全美最具票房魅力 He is a commercially successful playwright.
你无权这么说 You have no right to say that.
最富艺术气息前景也最被看好的剧作家 And, artistically, very promising.
夏娃 我是艾迪森啊 Eve, dear, this is Addison.
艾迪森 这不是太完美了吗？ Oh, Addison, won't it be just perfect?
洛依和我携手合作 前途将不可限量 Lloyd and I. There's no telling how far we can go.
他为我写好的剧本 He'll write great plays for me.
我将这些剧本完美的呈现出来 I'll make them great.
这些话我只对你一个人说 除了洛伊 我之外 You're the only one who knows, except Lloyd and me.
- 还有凯伦 - 她并不知情 - And Karen. - She doesn't know.
- 她就是因为太了解所以才没来 - 但她并不知道 - She knows enough not to be here. - But not all of it.
- 我将与洛伊结婚的事 - 我懂 - Not that Lloyd and I are gonna be married. - I see.
你们何时决定要结婚的？ And when was this unholy alliance joined?
前天晚上 我们来这儿之前决定的 We decided night before last, before we came up here.
我相信当时一定是十分浪漫 I trust the setting was properly romantic.
微微的烛光 吉普赛小提琴 Lights on dimmers and gypsy violins offstage.
当时一点都不浪漫 The setting wasn't romantic,
但洛伊却十分浪漫 but Lloyd was.
他在凌晨三点猛敲门把我吵醒 He woke me up at three o'clock in the morning, banging on my door.
他说彻夜难眠 他已离开凯伦 He couldn't sleep, he said. He'd left Karen.
还说除非我答应嫁给他 否则他什么事都做不成 Couldn't go on with the play or anything else until I promised to marry him.
我们一直谈到天明 We sat and talked until it was light.
他一直没回家 He never went home.
- 你们一直谈到天明？- 我们坐着谈着 艾迪森 - You sat and talked until it was light? - We sat and talked, Addison.
是的 我要和他结婚 I want a run-of-the-play contract.
你真是空前绝后 There never was, and there never will be, another like you.
说话呀 随便说什么都可以 Well, say something. Anything.
恭喜你了 干得好 夏娃 Congratulations. Skol. Good work, Eve.
你对我有什么企图？ What do you take me for?
我对你并没什么企图 I don't know that I "take you" for anything.
我相信你把我耍得团团转 Is it possible that you've confused me
就像你对他们一样 with those backward children you've played tricks on?
你对我有所企图 就像对他们一样？ That you have the same contempt for me as for them?
我相信你这番话有弦外之音 但我听不出来 I'm sure you mean something, but I don't know what.
仔细听好 夏娃 这一回你非听出来不可 Look closely, Eve. It's time you did.
我是艾迪森·杜威不是冤大头 I am Addison DeWitt.
至少不是你的冤大头 I'm nobody's fool, least of all yours.
我从未这样做过 I never intended you to be.
你一向如此 现在更是如此 Yes, you did, and you still do.
我还是听不懂你在说什么 I don't know what you mean.
但现在我要睡一会儿了 现在睡一觉对我很重要 But I want to take my nap. It's important...
我们谈一谈才是当务之急 杀手对杀手 It's important that we talk, killer to killer.
高手对高手 Champion to champion.
你不配当高手 你还有待琢磨 Not with me, you're no champion. You're stepping up.
艾迪森 请你直话直说然后出去 Please say what you have to say, plainly and distinctly,
好让我睡个觉 and then let me take my nap.
行 直话直说 尽管我认为没这个必要 Very well. Although it's unnecessary,
因为你和我一样心知肚明 because you know what I'm going to say.
或许洛伊会离开凯伦 但他绝不会因你而离开她 Lloyd may leave Karen, but he will not leave Karen for you.
- 你这句话是什么意思？- 要我说得更直接了当？ - What do you mean by that? - More plainly and more distinctly?
我并不想到新哈芬看你的新戏 讨论你的梦想 I have not come to New Haven to see the play, discuss your dreams,
或是到耶鲁校园拔长春藤 or pull the ivy from the walls of Yale.
我是来告诉你 你不可能和洛伊或其他人结婚 I came to tell you that you will not marry Lloyd, or anyone else,
因为我不答应 because I will not permit it.
- 我的婚事与你何干？- 一切 - What have you got to do with it? - Everything.
因为今晚起 你是属于我的 Because after tonight you will belong to me.
属于你的？ Belong? To you?
我真不敢相信我的耳朵 I can't believe my ears.
陈腔滥调 A dull cliché.
属于你的？ "Belong" to you?
这好像出自于 古老的情节剧之中的对白 That sounds medieval. Something out of an old melodrama.
也同样出现在现代的世界历史之中 So does the history of the world for the past 20 years.
我并不喜欢 如此直接了当告诉你 I don't enjoy putting it this bluntly.
老实说 我一直希望你早已明白 希望你认为 I'd hoped that you would have taken it for granted that you and I...
我们是天造地设的一对 "Taken it for granted?"
认为我们是天造地设的一对？ "That you and I...?"
切记 在你有生之年 绝不能笑我 Now remember, as long as you live, never to laugh at me.
你可以嘲笑其他的一切 但绝不能嘲笑我 At anything or anyone else, but never at me.
- 滚出去 - 真是不懂待客之道 - Get out. - You're too short for that gesture.
另外 和费丝凯夫人一起出去 Besides, it went out with Mrs. Fiske.
如果你不出去 我就叫人把你轰出去 Then if you won't get out, I'll have you thrown out.
别拿起电话 连碰都不要碰 Don't pick up that phone. Don't even touch it.
有股力量叫你乖乖听我的话 对不对？ Something told you to do what I said, didn't it?
你这种本能价值连城 That instinct is worth millions.
是用金钱买不到的 珍惜它吧 夏娃 You can't buy it, Eve. Cherish it.
警报响起时 就赶紧就战斗位置吧 When that alarm goes off, go to your battle stations.
首先你并不叫夏娃·赫灵顿 To begin with, your name is not Eve Harrington.
你叫格特鲁德·塞莱辛斯基 It's Gertrude Slescynski.
那又怎样 What of it?
他们想知道你人在何方 过得好不好 They would like to know how you are.
他们已有三年没有你的下落了 They haven't heard from you for three years.
那又怎样 What of it?
我同意这是一个 人之互见的问题 A matter of opinion, granted.
你曾在酒厂工作也是事实 It's also true you worked in a brewery.
但你的生活并不像你描述的那样枯燥乏味 But life there was not as dull as you pictured it.
其实 你的生活愈来愈多采多姿 It got less and less dull,
直到你老板的老婆派人跟踪后发现为止 until your boss's wife had your boss followed by detectives.
她什么也无法证明 She never proved a thing!
但是她给五百元叫你离开后 But the $500 you got to get out of town
你直接来到纽约 对不对？ brought you straight to New York, didn't it?
她给五百元叫你离开后 你直接来到纽约 对不对？ That $500 brought you straight to New York.
她骗人 她是个骗子 She was a liar. She was a liar!
回答我的问题 她是不是拿钱叫你离开？ Answer my question. Weren't you paid to get out of town?
根本没有艾迪这个人 没有空军飞行员 There was no Eddie, no pilot.
你根本还没结过婚 You've never been married.
这不只是谎言 更是对死去的英雄 That was not only a lie, it was an insult to dead heroes
及爱他们的人不敬 and the women who loved them.
旧金山并没有舒伯特剧院 San Francisco has no Shubert Theatre.
你根本没去过旧金山 You've never been to San Francisco.
这是个漏洞百出的谎言 不值得你铤而走险 That was a stupid lie, easy to expose, not worthy of you.
我必须进去见玛格 I had to get in to meet Margo.
我必须成为大人物 必须让她喜欢我 I had to say something, be somebody. Make her like me!
她的确很喜欢你 她信任你 帮助你 She did like you. She helped and trusted you.
- 而你竟以抢走比尔做为回报 - 这不是真的 - You repaid her by trying to win Bill. - That's not true!
当时我在场 I was there.
我在更衣室的门外 看见并听见你们的谈话 I saw you and heard you through the dressing-room door.
你利用我和我的专栏威胁凯伦 You used my name to blackmail Karen
协助你争取到可拉这个角色 into getting you the part of Cora.
- 而你一直对我隐瞒这件事 - 不... - You lied to me about it. - No!
三小时前我和凯伦共进午餐 I had lunch with Karen not three hours ago.
我常跟这种一听到传闻 就想追根究底的女人吃饭 As always with women who try to find out things, she told more than she learnt.
现在你要修正 Now do you want to change your story
洛伊在半夜对你敲门的事吗？ about Lloyd beating at your door that night?
求求你... Please, please.
我竟然在这最不可能的时刻 突然感觉需要你 That I should want you at all suddenly strikes me as the height of improbability.
或许"不可能"就是理由吧 But that in itself is probably the reason.
你真是个奇人 我也是 这是我们的共通点 You're an improbable person, Eve, and so am I. We have that in common.
瞧不起芸芸众生 无法爱人与被爱 Also a contempt for humanity, an inability to love and be loved.
填不满的欲望 用不尽的才能 Insatiable ambition and talent.
我们是绝配 你有在听我说吗？ We deserve each other. Are you listening to me?
- 那就说出来 - 我有在听 艾迪森 - Then say so. - Yes, Addison.
你已了解并同意 你完全属于我？ And you realize and you agree how completely you belong to me?
对 艾迪森 Yes, Addison.
去睡吧 祝你今晚好运 Then take your nap, and good luck for tonight.
我今晚无法演出 I won't play tonight.
不可能的 我无法演了 I couldn't. Not possibly. I couldn't go on.
无法演？你将演出你一生中最要的一场戏 "Couldn't go on"? You'll give the performance of your life.
于是她演出了 她这一生中最要的一场戏 And she gave the performance of her life.
那是难忘的一夜 And it was a night to remember, that night.
各位莎拉席德森协会的成员 Honored members of the Sarah Siddons Society,
各位特别来宾及各位先生女士 distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen.
我该说什么 What is there for me to say?
一切的感谢辞 老早以前就都已被比我更成熟 Everything wise and witty has long since been said
更具才华 更杰出的人说尽 by minds more mature and talents far greater than mine.
将各位视为同辈发表感言 无疑是放肆狂妄 For me to thank you as equals would be presumptuous.
我是戏剧界的菜鸟 I am an apprentice in the theatre,
需要向各位学习的地方还很多 and have much to learn from all of you.
我只能说 我很荣幸能获得这项荣誉 Let me say only that I am proud and happy,
但这项荣誉 and that I regard this great honor
并不代表我达到的成就 not so much as an award for what I have achieved,
而是代表我有待进步的空间 but as a standard to hold against what I have yet to accomplish.
更且 我只是上台代表接受这项荣誉 And, further, that I regard it as bestowed upon me only in part.
这项荣誉更属于我在剧场的朋友 The larger share belongs to my friends in the theatre,
及剧场本身 and to the theatre itself
是剧场给了我今日的一切 which has given me all I have.
平心而论 我得将这份荣誉献给应得之人 In good conscience, I must give credit where credit is due.
献给马克斯·费宾 亲爱的马克斯 To Max Fabian. Dear Max.
多情 慷慨 勇敢的马克斯·费宾 Dear sentimental, generous, courageous Max Fabian,
他冒险起用了一个没没无闻的业余演员 who took a chance on an unknown, untried amateur.
献给我在戏剧界的第一朋友 To my first friend in the theatre,
她的亲切及慷慨令我没齿难忘 whose kindness and graciousness I shall never forget,
凯伦 理查德太太 Karen. Mrs. Lloyd Richards.
凯伦让我见到我的偶像 It was Karen who first brought me to one whom I'd always idolized,
这位偶像后来成为我的恩人和对手 one who became my benefactress and champion.
她是一位伟大的演员 也是一位伟大的女性 A great actress and a great woman,
玛格·钱宁 Margo Channing.
献给我的导演 To my director,
虽然他总是要求我超越极限 who demanded always a little more than my talent could provide,
但他却一直耐心地教导我 but who taught me patiently and well,
比尔·山普森 Bill Sampson.
还有另一位 And one
如果不是他那伟大的剧本和对我的信心 without whose great play and faith in me,
今晚我就无法站在这里 this night could never have been.
我如何才能报答洛依·理查德德呢？ How can I repay Lloyd Richards?
还有太多人 How can I repay the many others,
我无法在此一一详述 so many, I couldn't possibly name them all,
由于他们的协助 指引及忠告 whose help, guidance, and advice
今晚才能成为我这一生中最开心的一晚 have made this, the happiest night of my life, possible.
虽然明天我将前往好莱坞拍片 Although I am going to Hollywood next week to make a film,
但请别认为我将离开你们 do not think for a moment that I am leaving you.
叫我如何能离开你们呢？ How could I?
我的心在剧场这里 My heart is here in the theatre,
三千哩并不能阻挡 我对各位的思念 and 3, 000 miles are too far to be away from one's heart.
我将尽快回来 I'll be back to claim it, and soon.
如果你们希望我回来的话 That is, if you want me back.
祝各位晚安 Good night to you all, and to all, a good night.
不管这是什么奖... 献给我亲爱的老婆 For services rendered beyond whatever it is of duty, darling.
快走 我是主人 Come on, I'm the host.
我得尽快回家 以免客人偷走我的酒 I got to get home before my guests start stealing the liquor.
- 恭喜了 夏娃 - 谢谢你 凯伦 - Congratulations, Eve. - Thank you, Karen.
- 恭喜你 赫灵顿小姐 - 谢谢 - Congratulations, Miss Harrington. - Oh, thank you so much.
夏娃 讲得真好 但我并不会太担心你的心 Nice speech, Eve. But I wouldn't worry too much about your heart.
你可以将那奖座 放在你内心所向往的地方 You can always put that award where your heart ought to be.
我想没剩下半杯饮料了 I don't suppose there's a drink left?
- 你可以到马克斯家喝 - 我不想去 - You can have one at Max's. - I don't think I'm going.
- 为什么？- 因为我不想去 - Why not? - Because I don't want to.
- 夏娃 我真为你高兴 - 谢谢 - I'm so happy for you, Eve. - Thank you so much.
马克斯可是费了好大的心思 Max has gone to a lot of trouble.
这是一场精心策划的庆功宴 特地为你举办的 This is going to be an elaborate party and it's for you.
不对 他是为了这座奖杯 No, it isn't. It's for this.
- 这还不是一样？- 没错 - It's the same thing, isn't it? - Exactly.
来 你代我拿着它去吧 Here, take it to the party instead of me.
你又孩子气了 You're being very childish.
- 我好累 我只想回家 - 好吧 我先送你回家 - I'm tired. I want to go home. - Very well. I'll drop you off.
然后再自己去 我不想过错这场宴会 I shall go to the party alone. I have no intention of missing it.
- 你是谁？- 赫灵顿小姐 - Who are you? - Miss Harrington.
- 你在这里干什么？- 我大概是睡着了 - What are you doing here? - I... I guess I fell asleep.
别叫警察逮捕我 Please don't have me arrested.
我没偷任何东西 你可以搜身 I didn't steal anything. You can search me.
你是怎么进来的？ How did you get in here?
我一直躲在走廊 然后有个女佣进来铺床 I hid outside till the maid came in.
她一定是忘了拿东西 她出去拿时忘了关门 She went out to get something and left the door open.
我就乘机溜进来 一直躲到她离开 I sneaked in and hid till she'd finished.
然后我就四处看看 Then I just looked around.
不久 我担心有人会注意到灯亮着 I was afraid someone would notice the lights were on,
我就把灯关掉 so I turned them off.
- 然后大概就睡着了- 你只是四处看看？ - Then I guess I fell asleep. - You were just looking around?
- 如此而已 - 为什么？ - That's all. - What for?
- 或许你不会相信的 - 大概不会相信 - You probably won't believe me. - Probably not.
- 为了我的报告 - 什么报告？给谁的报告？ - It was for my report. - What report? To whom?
你如何生活 穿什么衣服 About how you live, what kind of clothes you wear,
用什么香水 看什么书 诸如此类的事 what kind of perfume and books, things like that.
几乎每一所女校都有夏娃·赫灵顿社 You know the Eve Harrington Club that they have in most girls' high schools?
我听说了 I've heard of them.
在依拉斯摩斯地区 本校是最先创立的 Ours was one of the first, Erasmus Hall.
- 我是社长 - 依拉斯摩斯 在布鲁克林？ - I'm the president. - Erasmus Hall. That's in Brooklyn, isn't it?
许多女演员都来自布鲁克林 Lots of actresses come from Brooklyn.
芭芭拉史坦威克和苏珊海华 Barbara Stanwyck and Susan Hayward.
当然她们只是电影明星 Of course, they're just movie stars.
你不是要去好莱坞？ You're going to Hollywood, aren't you?
从你的行李看来 你会在那儿待很久 From the trunks you're packing, you must be going to stay a long time.
或许吧 I might.
溅出的酒会弄脏你的地毯 That spilled drink's gonna ruin your carpet.
明天早上女佣会清理的 Maid'll fix it in the morning.
- 我来清理 - 不用麻烦了 - I'll just clean up the mess. - Don't bother.
- 你是怎么从布鲁克林来的？- 搭地铁 - How'd you get up here from Brooklyn? - Subway.
需要多久的时间？ How long does it take?
连换车等算在内超过一小时 With changing and everything, a little over an hour.
现在已经一点多了 你无法回家了 It's after one now. You won't get home till all hours.
我不打算回家 I don't care if I never get home.
有人来了 That's the door.
你休息吧 我来开门 You rest. I'll get it.
你是谁？ Hello. Who are you?
赫灵顿小姐正在休息 杜威先生 Miss Harrington's resting, Mr. DeWitt.
她要我来开门 She asked me to see who it is.

她是专家 Miss Harrington knows all about it.
谁啊？ Who was it?
计程车司机 赫小姐 Just a taxi driver, Miss Harrington.
