详细剧情

 长篇影评

 1 ) Take it, feel it and pass it on

      刚好是前几天听的lecture里,说的是美国大学的 law in history,提到the most dramatic change is the way teaching was done,which is followed the Socrqtic questioning style,并且一直沿用至今。而在那之前的一个星期,刚好有南周评论版一哥们儿写苏格拉底的死写得风姿勃发。
 
    下午看了《The history boys》,戏剧改电影,演员台词功底实在了得,用词华丽流畅,书袋也吊得无迹可觅,看完了想想差不多题材老美的《死亡诗社》确实够烂,不论老师学生都只能念几句惠特曼的“Oh,captain,my captain”,怪不得欧洲文化中心论到现在也是如此地有市场。
 
    背景是80年代文法男校,出场人物有三位历史老师、八名学生和一个校长。
 
    喜欢在骑摩托车时把手放到后座男生ball上面去的Hector老师为人风趣随和不拘小节,教学方式散漫又无章法,他热衷于培养学生对诗歌修辞的好感,八个学生经常会在法语课上模拟妓院的对话场景以巩固对虚拟态语气词汇的掌握……然而学生并非会被这种慢节奏无绩效的老式教学方式所迷惑——他们的目标是牛津或剑桥的历史系。校长请来了牛津毕业的年轻教师Irwin,这位老师的教学犀利、深刻而充满激情,与Hector的方法刚好形成良性互补,最终八名学生全部得偿所愿。
 
    被我说的若无其事的概括底下大概是一般中国学生难以理解的种种情感及其处理方式。当我将Darkin对Irwin的表白与Clive对Maurice的进行对照时,发现了相类似的各种要素。因此感情是激励我观看然而我却不愿予以多说的东西,我对苏格拉底感兴趣。
 
    Hector的教学方式是苏格拉底式的吗?校长对这个做了肯定的回答,那么看起来新潮锋利的Irwin呢?我倒觉得也是。
 
    片中开头一幕很有意思,也有可能是我想多了:一个学生骑车去了教堂,神父正在说着祷词:“神所赐出人意外的平安,必在基督耶稣里保守你们的心怀意念。全能之主的祝福,圣父、圣子和圣灵,会保佑汝等,并与汝共存,现在如此,今后亦然,阿门。”再看到后面分别出场的三位老师,总有一种隐隐对照着trinity的感觉。刚好三位老师采取的是三种不同的教学方法,于是就想当然了。
 
    Dorothy作为唯一的女教师,她的教学严谨而深具批判意识。Hector则并非是散漫无目的教学方法令学校不能令人接受,相反,校长说过“有效”这样的话,只不过因为他摸ball的动作被女巡查员看到了而被迫退休。新来的Irwin则能够最大地调动学生的求知热情,三个性格、方式各异的老师凑在一起,教出了八个牛津剑桥的学生其实也顺理成章。
 
    Hector是要求在长期的教学中对学生潜移默化,注重文学素养并依赖这样的基础,喜欢吊书袋的他何尝不是在白发苍苍的时候才能够“随心所欲”的呢?他深信时间能够带给人最大的安慰,然而他又确实被时间伤害不浅这样的矛盾体现在他出场发言的每时每刻,并且他是以此为享受的。崇拜安逸是懦夫的行为,他在花甲之龄仍然以一种浮士德式的姿态战斗着,一点儿也不美观,但却让人心生好感——这不能够称之为同情,同情该是对他以及对我们这些心生好感的人的嘲笑。它不会让人愤怒,但它不应该用在Hector的身上,即便他壮士断腕般今朝酒醉明日赴死。Hector是个纯粹的、天生的老师,他不需要用校规或者其他东西包括道德来约束自己,因为他认为对于一个真正的教师来说,“教师”的身份就应该是最大的约束,除此之外,百无禁忌。
 
    Irwin则简单得多,他是个已经被急功近利的现代性给弄得别别扭扭的那种家伙,可是,无奈地,非常招人喜欢。无论是观众还是学生,更或者是万人迷的Darkin。他的尖酸和深刻一样惹人怜爱,犹如他的自信和自卑,那般恰到好处地融合,使他既嚣张又惶惑。凉薄的双颊代表自制,眼镜的遮掩则又精光四溢,每个人都爱他爱得不行,爱到连他漏洞百出的字体也被了解和模仿。Irwin上课时的passion很强大,相当吸引人,赚得的眼球使他既得意又恐惧。以至于到最后,连我都以为他真的会跪在地上,suck Darkin……Irwin是这样的一位老师,他不止像Hector那样简单的传递与索取,更多的时候他将两者融为一体,使自己犹如禁欲的僧侣一般脆弱到不堪一击,而揭开寡陋的面具攻击他的人总是存在。我们都爱Irwin,学生爱,老师同样爱,他自己也爱,所以在最后他对与Darkin之间约会的忘却是那样的无理但含情脉脉。Irwin本身没有做教师的自觉,所以,他越来越是那种需要随时提醒自己有所自觉的讨厌状。他太年轻,经不起考验,故而不如舍弃考验,这一点我们既爱又恨。
 
    Dorothy的出场份额短暂但并非无效,她对历史的看法犹如历史自身一样地充满了偏见但使人不得不敬畏。她是隐者,但并不低调,她在合适的时候绽放,容易教人忽然陷入无所适从地尴尬,因为她居然那么简单又真实,就好像近代史手册一样,却又最容易受到无数观点的左右而易于摇摆。Dorothy应该起调和的作用,但事实上她往往最为激动,学生记得这样的老师的存在,正因为记得她偶尔的雷霆万钧。
 
    三位老师其实共同体现的都是苏格拉底的智慧与责任,因为这一点避无可避,又因为——there it is。短短两个小时的电影,反映出了如此多的道理,却并不拥挤逼仄,相反倒有一种天性的诗意缓缓淌过,简直是最好的英式教育白皮书,不得不感叹,一个好的戏剧,张力的确能够做到文学性与表演性的极致,或者说是能够找准那个最佳平衡点,从而在任何情况下赢得时间和空间。
 
    电影看完了,有人醒悟说,原来自始至终强调的居然不是那句“history is just one fuckin' thing after another.”而是Hector说的,education needs “Take it, feel it and pass it on”。
 
    所以,这部影片其实从头到尾都是在向雅典公民苏格拉底先生致以最崇高的敬意。包括那无处不在的洋溢在年轻与老朽的肉体之中的爱与责任。

 3 ) 给予我们最多的人

叫<历史系男孩>不如叫成是<历史系老师>.
在这里面,更主要的是两种老师的教学方式,两种我们进入高等学府前选择的人生方式.
一种是为破而破,一种是为立而立.
大千世界,别人已经做到的,已经做成的是太多了,不是因为坚持自己相信的,仅仅只是因为这样会迎得更多的人关注,让自己成为不多见的精英,所以去学习,生活,为了让自己显得独树一帜而反对或者提出观点.
我们是应该这样?还是就承认我们的庸俗?
承认我们一直以来遵守的道德,做一个安份守已的普通人?
许多人都觉得文学没有什么意义,用里面的学生的话来说,是失败者的自我安慰.
确实是如此,用里面的老师的庆来说,阅读的美也在于,当你孤独的时候,你觉得,在你身边有一个人,也许这人死了很久,但是他握住了你的手.
英国一直是一个保守的国家,在这里,保守无疑仍然却被修饰过后更强调了它的美,在此来与"激进"\"跃进"抗衡,我想,或者,对于每一个准备人生来进行一场大跃进,然后跳脱出来,做一场赤裸的个人秀的人,都可以看看,我们,是为什么而破,为什么而立.
吃惊的却是,作为英国将来的社会精英,他们可真的很能研究自己的历史和文学,而我不知道我们在读高中的时候,有没有这样的深度和广度来思考我们的社会还有,认识我们的文学,我们的历史...
还有一个问题,我们可以问自己,也问我们身边的人,为什么我们被喜欢不能因为我们无聊又普通呢?

不知道为什么,看到最后那个男孩子,当了老师,当了个普通的老师,我居然哭了...

虽然介绍里提到了同性恋,但却并不是影片的重点,反而象在反映这样的观点,那些,小众的,并不能登上社会权威高层的阶梯人的手中更有可以值得传承下去的东西.

其它都聪明非凡,只是还需磨练

But they need polish.


产生优势
Edge. Your job.

那么你的工作


We're low in the league.
我们学校评价不高,我期待进入 曼彻斯特文法学校之流

I want to see us up there with Manchester Grammar School, Haberdasher Askes,

像阿斯科商学院


Leighton Park.
还有雷顿派克


那是座开放式监狱吗?
Or is that an open prison?


No matter.
不重要


在历史方面还有欠缺
There is a vacancy, in history.


那是事实
That's very true.


我是说学校中还有缺
In the school.


- Ah. - (both laugh nervously)

尔文,帮我赢得奖学金
Get me scholarships, Irwin.


让我们崛起就是你的工作
Pull us up the table and it's yours.


我们课程紧凑极了
I-I'm corseted by the curriculum.


但你一周能来上三节课
But I can find you, er... three lessons a week.


- 还不够 - 我同意
- Not enough. - (stammers) Yes, I agree. However...

不过我知道应该还能 再挪出一小时

I think I know where we can filch an hour.


 Elle 閏oute la java

 Mais elle ne la danse pas

 Elle ne regarde m阭e pas la piste

 Mais ses yeux amoureux

 Suivent le jeu nerveux et les doigts secs et longs de l'artiste

 莂 lui rentre dans la peau

 Par le bas, par le haut

 Elle a envie de chanter C'est physique

 Tout son 阾re est tendu

 Son souffl?est suspendu

 C'est une vraie tordue de la musique

(applause)

赫克托老师 你们到底在干什么?
Mr. Hector, what on earth is happening?

不 不 这里禁止说英语 在这我们只说法语

L'anglais c'est interdit. Ici, on ne parle que fran鏰is.

我们正在做重要的假设句 和条件句 句型练习

En accordant une importance particuli鑢e au subjonctif.

亲爱的校长 您明白吗?

Vous comprenez, cher monsieur le directeur?

-Ypres -Ypres?

是在第一次世界大战期间

Pendant la guerre mondiale num閞o un.

其它人是医生和护士

所有在这大房子里的人 都是治疗和被治疗的人

他在呼唤他妈妈

爸爸啊 爸爸

Mon p鑢e! Mon p鑢e!

他在呼唤他爸爸

Comment?


(法语) 他中弹,可能精神受刺激了
Commotionn? Shell-shocked.


是的 这个词用的很准确
C'est possible. Commotionn? Oui, c'est le mot juste.


请允许我介绍一下尔文先生 我们新来的老师
Permettez-moi d'introduire Monsieur Irwin, notre nouveau professeur.


- Enchant? - Enough of this silliness! No, not silliness!
够了,别说愚蠢的外国话 不是说你们


- 这些学生是要上牛津剑桥的 - 没人告诉我
Mr. Hector, you are aware these pupils are Oxbridge candidates?

Nobody's told me.


Mr. Irwin will be coaching them, but it's a question of time.
尔文会为他们授课 但是时间太少了


我替他安排一周上三节课 可是我想…只是暂时的
I've found him three lessons a week, but I was wondering... Purely on a temporary basis.


- 这是最后一次 - 上次你也说是最后一次
- The last time, I promise. - Last time was the last time.


- I'm thinking of the boys. - I am, too. No, absolutely not. No. No, no, no.
- 我在为这些小伙子着想 - 我也是,我不答应

没得商量,那么 对不起…

C'est hors de question, et puis, si vous voulez m'excuser,

我要继续上我的课了 一会见

je dois continuer ma le鏾n. ?tout ?l'heure.


- (bell rings) - Fuck.
可恶


(all laugh)

但这是事实,时间不多了
It's true, though, sir. We don't have much time.


我们根本不用练法语
We don't even have to do French.


Now, who goes home?
现在谁要回家?


我可以送他一程
Well, surely I can give somebody a lift.


- 谁要坐后座?达肯? - 不,我要到市区去
- Who's on pillion duty? Dakin? - Not me, sir. I'm going into town.


- 克劳瑟? - 我要去跑步,老师
- Crowther? - I'm off for a run, sir.


- 阿卡特? - 我要去计算机社团,老师
- Akhtar? - Er... computer club, sir.

- Ah. - I'll come, sir.

- 我跟你走,老师 - 不,不行

Oh, no, never mind.


- 我来,老师 - 斯科普
I'll come, sir.

Ah! Scripps.


看在老天的份上
The things I do for Jesus.


- 永远都轮不到我 - 你年纪太小了
- It's never me. - You're too young still.


总会有那一天 至少你已经成熟了
It will happen. Now that you've achieved puberty.


要是天再黑一点的话
If rather late in the day.


赫克托可能会把手放在你膝盖上
Mr. Hector is likely, at some point, to try and put his hand on your knee.


所以说赫克托是个可悲的同性恋
This is because Mr. Hector is a homosexual and a sad fuck.


The drill is to look at the hand and go, "And what does Mr. Hector want?"
考验就是看着他的手想答案 「赫克托想做什么」


可是没有答案 事情就是这样
Well, he has no answer for this and so will desist.


缩一下
Thrutch up.


- I just think I should have been told. - He comes highly recommended.
- 应该有人先告诉我 - 他有人大力推荐


- 克利夫斯的安妮也是 - 谁?
- So did Anne of Cleves. - Who?


- 他跟得上时代,能因应现在 - 我以为历史是「过去」吧
He's up to the minute, Dorothy, more "now".

Now? I thought history was "then".


菲力克斯
Felix.


克利夫斯的安妮 她是什么人?
Anne of Cleves. Remind me.


- 亨利八世的第四任妻子 - 当然了
- Fourth wife of Henry VIII, sir. - Of course.


She was the one they told him was Miss Dish,
他们说她美若天仙


结果却是奇丑无比
only, when she turned up, she had a face like the wrong end of a camel's turd.


Quite so.
没错


- 你怎么了,小伙子? - 我有请假单
- What's the matter with you, lad? - Oh, I've got a note, sir.


花多少钱买的?
How much for? (laughs) I don't do notes. Get changed.

没有请假这种事,去换衣服


- 老师… - 上帝也从不请假
- Sir... - God doesn't do notes either.


Did Jesus say, "Can I be excused the Crucifixion?" No.
耶稣有没有说过 「我能不能不上十字架?」没有


事实上,我想他说过
Actually, sir, I think he did.


去换衣服 有一天你会因此得救的
Change! One day it will save your life.


运动才不能救命 只是会延后死期
Nothing saves anyone's life, sir. It just postpones their death.


主耶稣会拯救你,年轻人 只要你打从内心接受他
Jesus Christ will save your life, lad,

if you only let him into your heart!


我是犹太人
I'm Jewish, sir.


我是回教徒
I'm Muslim, sir.


非常好
- Very good. - (applause)


Most excellent.
棒极了


(all) Ooooh!

继续
Go on!


Lad, lad, lad!
朋友们


你在侮辱你自己,侮辱上帝
You're letting yourself down, you're letting God down.


- 这又关上帝什么事? - 听着,小子,这躯壳不属于你
- What's God got to do with it? - Listen, boy, this isn't your body.


- 不属于我? - 没错,是上帝借给你的
- No? - No!

This body is on loan to you from God.


- 我操 - 我听到了,做20下
- Fuck me. - I heard that! Give me 20.


20 what? Hail Marys?
20下什么?念圣母玛利亚?


快点
Do it.


你们迟到了,去换衣服
- You're late. Get your kit off. - I'm on the staff.

- 我是教师 - 我从没见过你

- (laughing) - Well, I've never seen you.


What's this?
这是什么?


- 要帮忙吗? - 你看得懂吗?
- Do you need a hand with that, sir? - Is it joined-up writing?


林托特老师交给我 你们最近写的文章
Mrs. Lintott's given me a view of some of your latest essays.


内容有趣,但文章不怎么样
The experience was interesting. The essays not. Dull.

很枯燥


Dull. Abysmally dull.
超枯燥的


这篇写凯旋的内容 是最枯燥的一篇
A triumph. The dullest of the lot.


- 所有重点我都写了 - 我没说「错」,我说「枯燥」
- I got all the points. - I didn't say it was wrong. I said "dull".


- 差得难以置信 - 你的字很难看
- Its sheer competence was staggering. - You've got crap handwriting.


那是你视力有问题 我们都知道是为什么
It's your eyesight that's bad and we know what causes that.

Sir! Is that a coded reference to the mythical dangers of self-abuse?

你是在暗示说打手枪吗?


- 也许我是在说笑呀 - 说笑?
- It might even be a joke! - (Dakin) A joke, sir?


Oh. Are jokes gonna be a feature? We need to know as it affects our mindset.
笑话也是上课内容吗? 那会影响我们的心智


你不会反对「心智」这个词吧
You don't object to our using the expression "mindset", do you, sir?


赫克托老师就会在意
Mr. Hector doesn't care for it.


宗教改革时期,教堂保有 14个包皮据说都属于耶稣
At the... er... at the time of the Reformation, there were 14 foreskins of Christ preserved,

但人们认为真品其实是存放在 罗马的圣约翰拉特兰教堂

but it was thought the Church of St. John Lateran in Rome had the authentic prepuce.

Don't think we're shocked by your mention of the word "foreskin", sir.

别以为「包皮」这名词 会吓到我们

才不会,我们之中有人就还有呢

No, sir. Some of us even have them.


不是波斯纳,因为他是犹太人 他不会有这种东西的
Not Posner, though, cos he's, well... Jewish. It's one of several things he doesn't have.


- 闭嘴! - 那可不是种族歧视
- Fuck off. - That's not racist, though, sir.


- 不是吗? - 和种族有关,但并非歧视
- Isn't it? - It's race-related. But not racist.


有人去过罗马或威尼斯吗?
Has anybody been to Rome or Venice?


佛罗伦斯?没有
Florence? No.


别的考生一定会去 并写下他们的所见所闻
The other candidates will have been and have done courses on what they've seen.


因此也会知道,要写下有关 教会处于宗教改革时期的文章
So they'll know, when they do an essay on the Church at the time of the Reformation,


这些有关包皮的废话 就能大作文章
that, oh, look, some silly nonsense on the foreskins of Christ will come in handy,


所以他们的文章,不像你们的 绝不会那么枯燥
so that their essays, unlike yours, will not be dull.


文章并不糟糕,只是枯燥极了 你们没希望的
They're not even bad, they're just boring. You haven't got a hope.


- 那又何必大费周章准备功课? - 不知道,你来说说
- So, why are we bothering? - I don't know. You tell me.


你们想要、你们父母想要 校长当然也期盼你们录取
You want it. Your parents want it. The headmaster, he certainly wants it.


而我?我不会这么浪费钱 只要能上纽卡素就很开心了
Me? I wouldn't waste the money. I'd go to Newcastle and be happy.


- Of course, there is another way. - Oh! How?
- 当然,也有其它方法 - 怎么样?


- 作弊 - 也许吧
- Cheat! - Possibly.


- Dakin. - Sir?
- 达肯 - 什么事?


别再不爽了,我们没时间了
Don't take the piss. There isn't time.


- 真是个自命不凡的人 - 当老师的就是这样
- What a wanker. - They all have to do it, don't they?


- 什么这样? - 表现得自己无所不知
- Do what? - Show you they're still in the game.


- 大谈包皮什么的,这个恶魔 - 他只比我们大没多少
Foreskins and stuff. "Oh, sir, you devil."

Have a heart. He's only five minutes older than we are.


What happened with Hector, on the bike?
赫克托在车上有什么动作吗?


一如以往 不过我将书包放在腿上
As per. Except I managed to get my bag down.


他以为是他勾起我的性趣 其实是我的都铎经济论第二卷
I think he thought he'd got me going,

but, in fact, it was my Tudor Economic Documents, Volume Two.


(laughs)

( "Mustapha Dance" by The Clash)

那么一次大战 能告诉我们什么?
So, let's summarize. The First World War, what points do we make?


堑壕战场
- Trench warfare. - Mountains of dead.

- 尸体堆积成山 - 双方都是

- On both sides. - Generals stupid.

- 愚蠢的将军 - 双方都是

- On both sides. - Armistice. Germany humiliated.

- 停战,德军蒙羞 - 继续讲

- Keep it coming. - Mass unemployment. Inflation.

- 失业 - 通货膨胀


威玛共和国垮台,混乱不堪 希特勒崛起
Collapse of the Weimar Republic, internal disorder, the rise of Hitler.


所以我们的结论是 二次大战的起源
So our conclusion is that the origins of the second war


是因为对一次大战的结果不满意
lie in the unsatisfactory outcome of the first.


- 是的 - 棒极了
- Yes. Yes. - First class.


布里斯托大学 会敞开怀抱欢迎你们
Bristol welcomes you with open arms.


曼彻斯特渴望你们的加入 里兹大学更是如此
Manchester longs to have you. You can walk into Leeds!


我待过麦格达伦学院 读完70篇同样的论文都快睡着了
But I'm the fellow of Magdalene College,

I've just read 70 papers saying the same, and I'm asleep.


- 那都是事实 - 事实又如何?
- But it's all true. - What's truth got to do with it?


事实又怎么样?
What's truth got to do with anything?


- 这位新老师好象挺聪明的 - 是的,超优秀
- (Mrs. Lintott) The new man seems clever. - He does. Depressingly so.


- 你不是考过牛津? - 是剑桥
- Didn't you try for Oxford? - Cambridge.


校园回廊,古老的图书馆
Cloisters. Ancient libraries.


我以为身处古老的建筑 就是学习
I was confusing learning with the smell of cold stone.


即使我去了也不会理解 个中分别
If I had gone I'd probably never have worked out the difference.


杜伦大学的历史系颇为知名 我在那第一次吃披萨
Durham was very good for history. It's where I had my first pizza.


当然还有其它事物 但那里的披萨是最棒的
Other things too, of course, but it's the pizza that stands out.


Er, Dakin's a good-looking boy, though somehow sad.
达肯很不错,就是有些忧郁


你总是认为他们忧郁,赫克托 没有一次不是如此
You always think they're sad, Hector. Every, every time.


Actually, I wouldn't have said he was sad, I would have said he was cunt-struck.
我不认为他忧郁 只能说他是很迷人性感


桃乐丝
Dorothy.


我以为你会喜欢 复合形容词
I'd have thought you'd have liked that. It's a compound adjective.


- 你喜欢复合形容词 - 是呀
- You like compound adjectives. - Yeah.


- 四处闲逛了 - 哦,是的
- Oh. Going walkabout. - Oh, yeah.


事实是1914年德国不想打仗
The truth was, in 1914, Germany doesn't want war.


当时有人挑起战火 是英国指使的
Yeah, there's an arms race, but it's Britain who's leading it.


为什么没有人承认这个?
So, why does no one admit this?


That's why. The dead.
原因就是死亡


死了太多人
The body count.


我们不愿承认战争我们有错 因为我们死了很多人
We don't like to admit the war was even partly our fault cos so many of our people died.


所有的悲痛都掩盖了事实 不是怕我们忘记,是怕我们想起
And all the mourning's veiled the truth. It's not "lest we forget", it's "lest we remember".


That's what all this is about - the memorials, the Cenotaph, the two minutes' silence.
所以才会有这些纪念馆 战争纪念碑、两分钟的默哀


纪念是让人遗忘的最好方法
Because there is no better way of forgetting something than by commemorating it.


As for the truth, Scripps, forget it.
至于事实,斯科普,忘掉吧


在考试中,事实不是最重要的
In an examination, truth's not an issue.


你真的相信这个 还是你试图让我们相信?
You really believe this, sir? Or are you just trying to make us think?


史诗不是耍嘴皮子
Can't explain away the poetry, sir.


- 艺术总是最后的赢家 - 这个怎么样?
- Art wins in the end. - What about this one, sir?


「一系列长短不齐的诗句 耐心地等待着」
"Those long, uneven lines Standing as patiently

「仿佛整个环绕着 别墅的花园」

As if they were stretched outside The Oval or Villa Park,


The crowns of hats, the sun On mustached archaic faces
「一片的帽海中,阳光映照着 满是胡须古老的脸庞」

「咧嘴笑着 有如假期的欢乐」

Grinning as if it were all An August Bank Holiday lark."


「前所未有的纯真 不管是以前还是以后
"Never such innocence, Never before or since,


正如同变化本身 无时无刻默默地发生」
As changed itself to past Without a word."


「花园是如此整洁」
"The men leaving the gardens tidy."


「无数的婚姻只能维持片刻」
"The thousands of marriages Lasting a little while longer."


「再也不要如此天真」
"Never such innocence again."


这些你们怎么会倒背如流?
How come you know all this by heart?


这些也无法回答问题的
Not that it answers the question.


「光荣殉职」的人就不谈了
So much for our "glorious dead".


是呀
Quite.


Actually, Fiona's my Western front.
事实上我要征服的是费奥娜


例如昨晚
Well, last night, for instance.


我还以为要大推进呢
I thought it might be the big push.


遭遇到象征性的抵抗
So, encountering only token resistance,


我决定勘测实际地点
I reconnoitered the ground as far as the actual place.


- 胡扯 - 不,我是说没发生
- Shit! - No, I mean not onto it.


- 当然没进去,只是在上面 - 操
- Certainly not into it. Up to it. - Fuck.


比喻太贴切了
And the metaphor really fits.


我是说继续向前线前进时
I mean, moving up to the front,


部队可能要经过原来的战场
troops presumably had to pass the sites of previous battles.


我就是如此
Well, so it is with me.


比如她的双峰 三个星期前刚刚攻克
Like particularly her tits, which only surrendered about three weeks ago.


也是向南挺进的开始
And which were indeed the start line of a determined thrust southwards.


怎么了?
What's the matter?


- 那是禁地 - 操
- No-man's-land. - Ah, fuck.


那我该怎么做?
So, what do I do with this?


有控制的爆破行动?
Carry out a controlled explosion?


当然,至少我比菲力克斯还行
Still, at least I'm doing better than Felix.


- 菲力克斯? - 不会吧
- Felix? - No!


他在尝试 一直想引她上
Tries to. Chases her around the desk.

No!


不过比喻不恰当
Actually, the metaphor isn't exact


因为费奥娜可能在进行一场 预谋好的撤退
because what Fiona is presumably carrying out is a planned withdrawal.


你没强迫她 她也不畏强权
You're not forcing her, she's not being overwhelmed by superior forces.


- 她喜欢你吗? - 当然
- Does she like you? - Course she likes me.


所以你没有争夺领地 只是商讨占领的步骤
Then you're not disputing the territory, just negotiating over the pace of the occupation.


攻占柏林后让我们知道
Just let us know when you get to Berlin.


我开始更喜欢他了
I'm beginning to like him more.


- Who, me? - Irwin. Though he hates me.
- 谁,我? - 是尔文,虽然他不喜欢我


吉米
Jimmy!


开心点,至少他和你说话了
(Scripps) Cheer up. At least he speaks to you.


很多人连话都不和你说
Most guys wouldn't even speak to you.


- Love can be very irritating. - How do you know?
- 爱情可能会让人神志不清 - 你怎么知道?


我就是这样看上帝的
That's what I always think about God.


受到这么多人崇拜 他一定整天神魂颠倒
He must get so pissed off, everyone adoring him all the time.


是的 可是上帝不会急着脱裤子
Yes. Only you don't catch God poncing about in his underpants.

( "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" by Hart and Rogers)


(Posner) I'm wild again

 Beguiled again

 A simpering, whimpering child again

 Bewitched, bothered and bewildered

 Am I

 Couldn't sleep and wouldn't sleep

 When love came and told me I shouldn't sleep

 Bewitched, bothered and bewildered

 Am I

 Lost my heart, but what of it?

 He is cold, I agree

 He can laugh but I love it

 Although the laugh's on me

 I'll sing to him

 Each spring to him

 And worship the trousers that cling to him

 Bewitched, bothered and bewildered

 Am I

唱得好,波斯纳
Well done, Posner.


现在来读一些传统诗句
And now for some poetry of a more traditional sort.


Oh, God!
上帝呀


提姆斯,你做什么?
Er, Timms, w-w-what is this?


老师,我不想理解诗歌
Sir, I don't always understand poetry.


你不想理解? 提姆斯,我从来都不理解
You don't always understand it? Timms, I never understand it.


But learn it now, know it now, and you will understand it, whenever.
但现在学习,开始了解 你早晚会理解的


我们要如何理解? 诗歌所说的我们都没经历过
I don't see how we can understand it.

Most of what poetry's about hasn't happened to us yet.


会的,提姆斯,你会经历到的
But it will, Timms, it will.


到时候你会有所准备 痛苦、欢乐,甚至你死的时候
And when it does, you'll have the antidote ready.

Grief, happiness, even when you're dying.

We're making your deathbeds here, boys.

现在来看看临终之时吧


Er, we've got an ending, sir.
我们有一场戏码

Oh! Goody! Yes, well... Be sharp. Where's the kitty?

好啊,那就快点,演员呢?

(mumbling)


我们得吸烟
And we have to smoke, sir.


我碰巧有一些
And I happen to have some, sir.


好吧
- Very well. - (piano)


杰瑞,帮我一下
(as woman) Jerry, please help me.


Shall we just have a cigarette on it?
- 可不可以先点根烟? - 好的

Yes!


我可以偶尔过来吗?
May I sometimes come here?


只要你喜欢,这也是你的家 还有爱着你的人
Whenever you like. It's your home too. There are people here who love you.


- 你开心吗,夏洛特? - 杰瑞,月亮你不必摘给我
And will you be happy, Charlotte?

Oh, Jerry! Don't let's ask for the moon. We have the stars!

我们拥有星星

(piano crescendo)


很可爱
Lovely.

Hm!


是「走出过去的时代」中 的保罗亨瑞德和贝蒂戴维斯吧?
Could it be Paul Henreid and Bette Davis in Now, Voyager?.

(all laugh)


这很有名,你们这些无知的小子
It is famous, you ignorant little tarts.

- But we never heard of it, sir. - Oh! Walt Whitman, "Leaves of Grass".

- 我们从没听说过 - 惠特曼的「草叶集」

"The untold want, by life and land ne'er granted,

「生命中无言的需求 和从未取得的土地」

There's nothing on the Carry On films.

- Why? Should there be? - The exam.

考试,尔文说那个系列电影 会是个讨论的好题目

Mr. Irwin said the Carry Ons would be good films to talk about.


真奇怪 你认为他喜欢那些吗?
How peculiar. Does he like them, do you think?


也许不喜欢,谁知道呢
Probably not. You never know with him.


我想知道我是不是漏了什么
I'm now wondering if there's something there that I've missed.


尔文先生说 「虽然没有艺术价值」
Well, Mr. Irwin says that, "Whilst they have no intrinsic artistic merit..."


Ahem!

(quietly) "...they achieve some of the permanence of art simply by persisting
「但坚持带来了艺术的成功」


「才能在社会历史中 占有一席之地」
and acquire incremental significance if only as social history."


天哪,你们一定过得很有趣
Dear me. What fun you must all have.


他的教法和妳不同 很创新,真的
Well, it's not like your stuff, Miss. It's cutting edge, it really is.


- Where do you live, sir? - Horsforth.
- 你住在哪里?老师 - 霍斯福斯


离赫克托先生不远 他应该可以载你一程
Not far from Mr. Hector, sir. He might even give you a lift.


不是个阁楼吧?
It's not a loft, is it, sir?


你吃快餐还是美食佳肴?
Do you exist on an unhealthy diet of takeaways

or do you whisk up gourmet meals for one?


- 或者只吃披萨? - 我自己解决
- Or is it a lonely pizza, sir? - I manage!


你没有问题吗,达肯?
No questions from you, Dakin?


他们想打听的就是你的生活
What they want to know, sir, is do you have a life?


或者说我们就是你的生活?
Or are we it? Are we your life?


It's pretty dismal if you are, cos these are as dreary as ever.
那你们要大失所望了 因为我日子过得很平淡


你提了个问题,也知道答案 但别人也是如此
You get a question, you know the answer. But then, so does everybody else.


所以,说点不一样的 来点相反的
So, say something different, say the opposite.


好,听着,例如斯大林
OK, look, er... take Stalin.


大家都认为 他是个不折不扣的魔鬼
He's generally agreed to be a monster, and rightly so.


持相反意见 找些题材来为他辩护
Dissent. Find something, anything, and say it in his defense.


问题是你知道什么 而不是你不知道的事情
A question is about what you know, it's not about what you don't know.


例如说一个有关林布兰的问题 可能会是对窦加某个问题的答案
A question about Rembrandt, for instance, might prompt an answer on Degas.


- 窦加也是个大师吗? - 「苦难之事人们不曾道错」
- Is Degas an old master? - "About suffering they were never wrong,

The Old Masters; how it takes place while someone's eating or opening a window."

「大师们,当人们享用大餐 或乘凉时,他们正在奋发努力」

- Have you done that with Mr. Hector? - Done what?

- 赫克托先生也这么做吗? - 什么?


你引用的那首诗 是奥登,对吧?
The poem. You're quoting somebody. Auden, isn't it?


是吗? 有时候只是脱口而出
Was it, sir? Sometimes it just flows out, you know, brims over.


他是照本宣科还是随性所致?
Does he have a program or is it just at random?


- 是追求知识 - 对知识的追求无可厚非
- Knowledge. - The pursuit of it for its own sake.


我们在做的就是分享前人的智能
Breaking bread with the dead, that's what we do.


- 比你的那些要高贵多了 - 但没用,赫克托先生没有重点
- It's higher than your stuff, sir, it's nobler. - Only not useful. Mr. Hector's not as focused.


- 丝毫都没有,他神志不清 - 我们知道上你的课要做什么
(Lockwood) Not focused at all. He's blurred, sir.

We know what we're doing with you.

Half the time with him, we don't know what we're doing.

上他的课 我们都模模糊糊的


我们是可怜迷失的小绵羊 我们身在何处,老师?
We're poor little sheep that have lost our way.

- Where are we? Where are we, sir? - Sit down.


老师,你好年轻 不是半路停学才来的吧?
You're very young, sir. This isn't your gap year, is it, sir?


I wish it was.
- 我希望是 - 为什么?你不喜欢教我们吗?

(Lockwood) Why, sir? Do you not like teaching us?

我们不只是处于大学 和生命之间的转折点

We're not just a hiccup between the end of university and the beginning of life,


就像奥登一样,不是吗?
like Auden, are we, sir?


- 你喜欢奥登的诗吗? - 有一些
- Do you like Auden's poetry, sir? - Some, yeah.


赫克托先生喜欢 对奥登我们有些了解
Mr. Hector does. We know about Auden.

(all) Oh, yes, we do.

- 他当过校长 - 我相信是的

- He was a schoolmaster for a bit. - I believe he was.


他是的,你认为 他更像你还是赫克托先生?
Yeah, he was. Do you think he was more like you or more like Mr. Hector?


- 为什么他得像我们其中一人? - 我觉得他更像赫克托老师
I have no idea. Why should he be like either of us?

Oh, I think he was more like Mr. Hector.


令人困惑,他吻他的学生
Bit of a shambles. He snogged his pupils.


是奥登,老师 不是说赫克托
Auden, sir, not Mr. Hector.


你能回答 一个有关奥登的问题吗?
So, you could answer a question on Auden, then?


才不,老师 赫克托教的东西对考试没用
No, sir! Mr. Hector's stuff's not meant for the exam!


只是为了让我们多元发展
It's to make us more rounded human beings.


听着 考试可能是任何你知道的东西
Listen! This examination's gonna be about everything and anything you know and are,


如果你们知道问题的答案 就好好回答
and if there's a question on Auden or whoever and you know about it, answer it.


那可会是背信
That would be a betrayal of trust.


老师,没有神圣的东西吗 我们太震惊了
Yeah! Is nothing sacred, sir? We're shocked.


我会回答,他们也要听 吓死他们
I would, sir, and they would. They're taking the piss.


「久留英格兰的你」
"England, you've been here too long,


「口中所唱的歌 是为勇敢的人而唱」
And the songs you sing are the songs you sung

On a braver day, now they are wrong."

「只是,那些都是错误」


- 谁说的? - 尔文老师
- Who's that? - (all) Oh! Mr. Irwin!


- 史黛薇史密斯的「溺水不求救」 - 别告诉我这知识一无是处
Sir! It's Stevie Smith of "Not Waving But Drowning" fame.

Don't tell me that's useless knowledge.


如果你们要写一篇 有关后帝国衰退的论文
If you get an essay on post-imperial decline,


you're losing an empire, finding a role, all that kind of stuff.
丧失权利,寻求定位这些题材


A gobbet like that, it's the perfect way to end it.
用这样的一口酥来结尾 是最完美的


什么?
A what, sir?


一口酥,就是引用的文句
A gobbet. A quotation.


- 还有什么绝活没拿出来的? - 我们什么都会
How much more have you up your sleeves?

We've got all sorts. Hey! The train, the train!

火车

(all imitate train)


我真想这么做 站在边缘的我浑身发抖
(as woman) I really meant to do it. I stood there trembling right on the edge.


但我办不到 因为我不够勇敢
But I couldn't. I wasn't brave enough.


我应该道出对你的思念 但孩子们阻止了我
I should like to able to say the thought of you and the children prevented me.


But it wasn't. I had no thoughts at all.
其实不是 我根本没想过你


那只是一种强烈的欲望 不想再有任何感受
Only an overwhelming desire not to feel anything at all ever again.


Not to be unhappy any more.
不再感到不开心


回到了那小卖部 那时我几乎晕了过去
I went back into the refreshment room. That's when I nearly fainted.


这是在胡说些什么?
- What is all this? - (all) Shh!


- 萝拉 - 是的,亲爱的
- Laura. - Yes, dear?


Whatever your dream was, it wasn't a very happy one, was it?
不管你梦到了什么 都不是个开心的梦,是吗?


No.

我能帮你什么吗?
Is there anything I can do to help?


Fred, you always help.
弗瑞德,你一直在帮助我


你离开那么远
You've been a long way away.


谢谢你再回到我身边
Thank you for coming back to me.


天知道你们 干嘛学「相见恨晚」剧情
God knows why you've learned Brief Encounter.


这堂课完全浪费掉了
I think you ought to know this lesson's been a complete waste of time.


正如同赫克托的课 也都是在浪费时间
A bit like Mr. Hector's lessons then, sir. They're a complete waste of time too.


自作聪明 但这些对你们考试无益
Smart arse. But he's not trying to get you through an exam.

(all) Ooooh!


- 要舌吻吗? - 你说什么?
- French Kiss? - I beg your pardon?


纽马克那匹赛马,三点钟出赛
- Newmarket, three o'clock. - (chuckling)


- 桃乐丝 - 谢谢,史丹利
- Dorothy. - Thank you, Stanley.


觉得他们怎么样?
So, how are you finding them?


被你教导得极为出色 他们看不出来这是个游戏
You've taught them too well. They can't see it's a game.


- 历史是个游戏吗? - 对于这样的考试,是的
- History? Is it a game? - For an exam like this, yeah.


- Dorothy. - Ah, fuck.
- 桃乐丝 - 妈的


- Dorothy. - Headmaster.
校长


- 那是给我的可怕警告 - 菲力克斯?
- I call him the awful warning. - Who? Felix?


要是你不小心,他会将你同化
If you don't watch out, he's what you turn into.


If this was a 1940s film, he'd be played by Raymond Huntley.
如果这是40年代的电影 他应该由雷蒙亨特利扮演


谁?
Who?


他擅长演尖酸的法官 和刻薄的校长
He made a speciality of sour-faced judges and vinegary schoolmasters.


- 我又该由谁来扮演? - 德克博加德
- Who would I be played by? - Dirk Bogarde.

I'm not sure I like that.

我不知道自己是否喜欢他

- Dorothy. - Watch out.

- 当心 - 赫克托,就是他

Ah, Hector! The very man.


- 开心点,洛吉 - 你好
- Chin up, Rudge. - Hello!


林托特老师
Mrs. Lintott.


我们的大师勉强让步了 承认艺术有其作用
Our lord and master having grudgingly conceded that art may have its uses,


我来教你们未来的牛津剑桥男生 一些艺术历史
I gather I'm supposed to give your Oxbridge boys a smattering of art history.


不是我的强项,问尔文吧
Not my bag, Hazel. Irwin's your man.


- 有些点缀也不赖 - 艺术还有人重视吗?
- It's really just the icing on the cake. - Is art ever anything else?


米开朗基罗
Michelangelo.


好吧…也行
Well... I suppose.


你在看谁的?
Who've you got?


- Both nancies. - Are they?
- 两个同性恋 - 他们是吗?


这不是女人 只是有乳房的男人
These aren't women. They're just men with tits.


而且像是用冰淇淋勺子堆成的
And the tits look put on with an ice-cream scoop.


- 那么你喜欢特纳吗? - 他还行
- Do you like Turner, then? - He's all right.


挑一些你喜欢的 艺术就是要你们乐于欣赏的
Well, choose someone you do like. Art's meant to be enjoyed.


长期来看是如此 但我们并不能享受艺术
In the long term, maybe, but with us, enjoyment don't come into it.


We haven't time to read the books. We haven't time to look at the pictures.
才没时间在这里读书看画


We really need lessons in acting. That's what this whole scholarship thing is: an acting job.
我们需要演戏课程 奖学金只是要我们演戏


男生有给你取外号吗?
So, have the boys given you a nickname?


- 我不知道 - 有绰号也会是一种骄傲
- Not that I'm aware of. - A nickname is an achievement.


算是胜利的标志 得到徽章的感觉
Both in the sense of something won and also in its armorial sense.


徽章
Of a badge, a blazon.


预料之中的,我是辣妹
Unsurprisingly, I am Tott. Or Tottie.


有人觉得很讽刺
Some irony there, one feels.


- 赫克托没有绰号 - 他有,就是赫克托
- Hector has no nickname. - Yes, he has. Hector.


- 他是名叫赫克托 - 那是他的绰号
- But he's called Hector. - That's his nickname too.


他不叫赫克托 其实是叫道格拉斯
He isn't called Hector. His name's Douglas.


唯一一次听到有人这样喊他 是他令人意想不到的妻子
Though the only person I've ever heard address him as such

is his somewhat unexpected wife.


波斯纳昨天来见我 他有个问题
Posner came to see me yesterday. He has a problem.

老师,我想我可能是个同性恋
Sir, I think I may be homosexual.

我很同情 当然还不至于说我感同身受
I sympathized, though not so much as to suggest I might be in the same boat.


- With Dakin? - With anybody.
- 对达肯? - 对每一个人


那说得过去
That's sensible.


学生们最难以接受的 就是老师也只是普通人
One of the hardest things for boys to learn is that a teacher is human.


当老师最困难的 就是尽量去隐瞒这些事
One of the hardest things for a teacher to learn is not to try and tell them.


- 这是个阶段吗,老师? - 你认为这是个阶段吗?
- Is it a phase, sir? - Do you think it's a phase?


有些书上说这会过去的 我不知道我是否愿意事情过去
Some of the literature says it will pass.

I'm not sure I want it to pass.


但我想上牛津 上了说不定达肯会喜欢我
But I want to get into Oxford. If I do, Dakin might love me.


或者我会不再想他
Or I might stop caring.


- 你会回顾自己的生命吗? - 我想大家都会这么做
- Do you look at your life, sir? - I thought everybody did.


我是个犹太人,微不足道
I'm a Jew, I'm small,


又是同性恋 住在雪菲尔
I'm homosexual, and I live in Sheffield.


我这辈子完蛋了
I'm fucked.


So, all this religion. What do you do?
你的宗教,通常都做些什么?


到教堂祈祷
(sighs) Go to church. Pray.


是吗?
Yes?


那非常花时间 你是无法想象的
It's so time-consuming. You have no idea.


还有其它什么?
Yeah? What else?


Well. Er... it's what you don't do.
就是不能做的事


你不打手枪吗?
You don't not wank?


- 你疯了 - 不会永远这样
- Jesus! You're headed for the bin. - It's not forever.


你要做第一次时告诉我 我会回避
Yeah, well, just tell me on the big day and I'll stand well back.


烦人的是当你学得越多 在书中看到更多的失败者
What bothers me is the more you read,

the more you see literature is actually about losers.

- Ugh, no. - Yeah.

- 不会的 - 会


It's consolation. All literature is consolation.
只是种安慰 所有的文学都只是自我安慰

I don't care what Hector says. I find literature really louring.

我不在乎赫克托说了什么 我觉得文学超阴沉的

This is Irwin, isn't it? A line of stuff for the exam.

- 是尔文,全是为考试准备的 - 不

No.


Well, it isn't wholly my idea.
这不全是我的想法 我最近在读尼萧的著作

I've been reading this book by Nieshaw.


- 谁? - 尼萧,哲学家
- Who? - Nieshaw. He's a philosopher.


费德瑞克尼萧
Frederick Nieshaw.


我想应该是尼采吧
I think that's pronounced Nietzsche.


妈的
Oh, shit. Shit!


- What's the matter? - I talked to Irwin about it.
- 怎么了? - 我和尔文讨论过了


他没纠正我 还由着我喊尼萧
He didn't correct me. He let me call him Nieeee-shaw!


- 他当我是个傻瓜 - 我做错了什么了?
- He'll think I'm a right fool. Shit! - What have I done?


没什么,你什么都没做
Nothing. You've done nothing.


世界并不是绕着你转动的
The world doesn't revolve around you, you know.

Ah! Irwin! How are our young men doing?

尔文,我们的年轻人如何?


- 他们进展顺利吗? - 我想是的
- Are they on stream? - I think so.


你想是的?顺利还是不顺利?
(stammers) You think so? Are they or aren't they?


总会有些意外情况
Must always be something of a lottery.


意外?我不喜欢这个词,尔文
A lottery? I don't like the sound of that, Irwin.


我不要你搞砸 我们以前失败太多次了
I don't want you to fuck up.

We've been down that road too many times before.


(rock music)

Oi!



他来了
He's coming.


(cheering)

铅块从房顶上取下后用柴火烧 剩下的就交给时间
They took the lead off the roofs, they used the timbers to melt it down,

and time did the rest, and all thanks to Henry VIII.

所有都拜亨利八世所赐


如果你想了解斯大林 研究一下亨利八世
If you want to learn about Stalin, study Henry VIII.

If you want to learn about Mrs. Thatcher, study Henry VIII.

或者是撒切尔夫人 也可以研究亨利八世


你和桃乐丝回顾历史的时候 我先休息一下
While you and Dorothy are taking them through the history, I'll pitch camp.


当然,尔文,我也随时有空
Though, Irwin, I am constantly available


准备好有用的引语,对不起 是一口酥,以备你不时之需
for the provision of useful quotations - sorry, gobbets - on request.


「破旧教堂中 迟来的鸟儿甜蜜轻唱着」
"Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang."


记住,孩子们,好好用一口酥 答案就不会错得太离谱
Remember, boys, festoon your answers with gobbets

and you won't go very far wrong.


事实上,唱歌最无关紧要
(Irwin) Actually, singing was the least of it.


修道士也担任农民,织布 制作皮革,裁缝…
The monks were farmers, clothiers, tanners, tailors...


- (Akhtar) This was a toilet? - (Irwin) One of them.
- 这里是厕所? - 有一个是

那很好
No, that's good. That's good.


- 纯男性的团体,是吗? - 当然,他们是修道士
- All-male community, was it, sir? - Of course. They were monks.


会不会有点那个?
- Bit of that, you think? - What?

- 什么? - 同性恋什么的

- Same-sex stuff. - You blushed, sir.

- Have I fuck blushed. - Sir, this is consecrated ground!

老师,这么讲对圣地不敬耶


对我来说不是 反正是个异教徒教堂
(Akhtar) Not to me, sir. To me it's a pagan temple.


你确实有些脸红,老师
Only you did blush a bit, sir.

 5 ) 简评

1、The History Boys讲述的是一群英国高中生,也就是一群非常鲜嫩活泼的青春肉体,在那个骚动、迷惘、正在逐渐建立起自己人生的价值观、寻找自己的种种人生角色、并为了未来而全情努力的高考阶段的故事。这部电影涉及了很多议题,有迷惘青春的私密成长,有同志身份的认同与隐瞒,有对教育制度、教育观的审视与对抗,中间穿插了文学与历史的思辨、诱惑、赞美与传传承,通过两代人饱含机智、幽默和脉脉温情的交锋,传递了对生命、价值的思考。

2、电影上映时间2006年10月13日(英国),戏剧原作上演时间2004年5月(伦敦利特尔顿剧院)2006年4月23日(美国百老汇)。话剧获得2006年6项托尼奖,包括最佳话剧奖、最佳导演奖、最佳女配角奖、最佳男演员奖,、最佳美术设计奖和最佳灯光设计奖。托尼奖在戏剧界相当于电影界的奥斯卡,美国戏剧界最高奖项。

3、导演Nicholas Hytner是英国国家剧院经营人,话剧导演。剧作者Alan Bennett艾伦班尼特,英国著名剧作家,文化名人,在英国家喻户晓、获奖无数。爸爸是个屠夫,牛津大学历史系出身,留校任教中世纪历史几年后,转为专职写作。从1960年代开始投身剧本创作,并以自身担任导演及演员的经验为基础,写出许多精采佳作。他以《The History Boys》赢得戏剧界最高荣誉托尼奖,并曾以《疯狂乔治王》(The Madness of King George)入围奥斯卡最佳改编剧本。他也出版散文集《Writing Home》及自传作品《Untold Stories》等。他1997年身患癌症,当时开始撰写Untold Stories,抱着离世的心情写作,自传中首次透露了他的同性恋身份(他之前跟女性也有过关系)。后来他的癌症得以治愈,自传正式出版。目前他与他的男伴已经相处了14年,一直居住在伦敦。他最近的一本散文集《非普通读者》,虚构了一个英国女王迷恋读书之后种种疯狂行径的故事,在英国大受好评,目前相继在台湾、大陆出版了中文译本。


4、影片背景设置在1983年英国谢菲尔德一所男子高中文法学校。为什么要设置在这个年代呢,这跟英国的高考制度有关。概括地说,英国高考称为A-LEVEL考试,有几十项科目可以选择,学生至少学习三门课程,只要在两门课的考试中取得E即可达到一些普通大学的入学标准,较好的大学要求学生3门课的成绩均达到C以上。而一流大学如牛津、剑桥等名校则要求申请学生3门课的成绩达到AAA或AAB。而在1983年那个年代,牛津和剑桥有专门的入学考试,拿到3个A的学生,还要开始一段为期一个月、所谓的seventh-term,主要针对某一科目进行深造,以应对牛津和剑桥的考试。此后不久牛津和剑桥就改变了入学考试方式,废除了所谓的seventh-term,所以影片设置在1983年。
本片中这所男校中有8个学生拿到了3个A的成绩,他们回到校园,继续学习,他们选择的科目是历史。一心追求名校升学率的校长,生怕原有的历史老师不够资格、太保守,不能应付牛津的考试,因此聘请到一位新的历史老师,这位老师据说出身牛津,充满活力,并且了解牛津要什么样的学生。校长希望新历史老师的专门辅导能够帮助他们登上牛津剑桥的宝座。The History Boys的故事由此展开。

5、电影版演员与戏剧版首演演员完全一致。老师阵营为谢菲尔德男校校长、历史老师Mrs Dorothy Lintott、语文与常识课老师Hector海克特(Richard Griffiths)、历史老师Irwin欧文(Stephen Campbell Moore)等。学生主要有Dakin、Posner、Akthar、Crowther、Lockwood、Rudge、Scripps、Timms。
Hector扮演者Richard Griffiths是英国著名演员,饰演多部莎剧丑角,《哈利波特》电影中扮演哈利的姨父。老爷子对戏剧有很高的崇敬,比如有次演出,有观众手机铃声响了6次,他忍无可忍,终于中止表演让该观众出去。2008年新年接受女王授勋。
Dakin扮演者Dominic Cooper,1978年生,伦敦音乐戏剧艺术学院科班出身。主演过妈妈咪呀等剧。今年5月刚跟女友分手。目前跟HISTORY BOYS里中扮演Timms的胖子住在一起。曾登上2008年7月号英国版Attitude杂志封面,此为著名同志杂志。
Posner扮演者Samuel Barnett,1980年生,自幼表演,同样是伦敦音乐戏剧艺术学院出身,平日最爱去国家剧院酒吧,爱读科幻小说,如菲利浦普曼的《黑暗元素三部曲》,他也主演了这部话剧。他还是哈利波特和魔戒的爱好者,最爱读狄更斯。




 6 ) 做个把自己生活搞糟的大人又如何

I'm wild again
be geld again
a simipering,whimpering child again
bewiched, bothered and bewildered
I'm on...
couldn't sleep. I wouldn't sleep
when love came and told me I shouldn't sleep
bewiched, bothered and bewildered
I'm on...
lost my heart
but what of it
he is cold I agree
he can laugh but I love it
although the love saw me
I'll sing to him
each spring to him
and worship the trousers that cling to him
bewiched, bothered and bewildered
I'm on...

17、8岁的聪明学生,算得上真正意气风发,就要为实现人生第一个目标努力,结果也清晰可见。有那么点小烦恼小困惑,是今后无数烦恼困惑的开始和演习,但此时都还没有那么痛只是有点痒。

再来看看大人们的情况:Hector教学方法这样新奇,鼓励学生为兴趣而活,结果呢已婚的男人却是同性恋者;Irwin激发大家说得新奇,一击即中,但扯谎说自己来自牛津;Dorothy的大脑容量驱不散“History is woman following behind with a bucket”的想法;校长是所有被升学利益诱惑的典型。

人不管到不到中年都开始有自己的隐痛,哪像自以为成熟的孩子们样样都可以摊开来在阳光下晒,活得透明。回头看看走过的二十年,一开始也都个个明媚笑得灿烂,生活不知几时开始把每一人运送进不同轨道。或者,每一人不知几时开始把生活搞糟。

那又怎么样呢?这就是人生吧,要你尝遍每一种滋味,然后才有所体会,什么是酸什么是甜,还有所谓bittersweet,要你领会快乐总是比痛苦长存。

 7 ) Fusion---校园,师生,断背,历史

抽了一个下午看完,完全没想到有同志主题,据说原版话剧很棒,应该没错,那每一句台词,别说听,光是看字幕也是享受.

英伦的男同志片之多,质量之高,男色之美(Hugh Grant, Jude Law),恐怕是美国所难以企及的.同是校园题材,饱受好评的<死亡诗社>中师生关系展现得是如此的"清教徒",如此的悲怆.那部片中的老师迫于学生自杀的压力只得离开,让人不禁悲从中来;而这部片里那胖胖的Hector交通意外身亡,都没有把人煽出眼泪来.当老师被还原成一个普通人之后,似乎不太容易引发悲剧,一切他个人的笑或泪都属于我们,一切他个人的好与坏也都会在我们身上找到,这时候被解放的不仅仅是老师本人,更是我们自己.

尽管剧中人都说着难听的约克郡英语(比曼彻斯特的略好点),不过瑕不掩瑜,无论是对话还是穿插其中的钢琴伴奏清唱都美不胜收。不过,英国式幽默的确不太好理解,特别像我这种泡在美剧里的要换个脑子还不那么容易。

剧中最出彩的除了胖子Hector以外当属女历史老师了。在帮助学生预演入学面试的那一幕中,她提醒学生考官可能有女性,然后激情昂扬地发表了一篇“女权主义”的历史批判:Can you for a moment imagine how depressing it is to teach five centuries of masculine ineptitude? Why do you think there is no woman historians on TV? I'll tell you why because history is not such a frolic for women as for men. Why should it be? They (women) never get around the conference table. In 1919, they just ... arranged the flowers, then gracefully retired. History is a commentary on the various and continuing incapabilities of men. What is history? History is woman following behind with a bucket. 如果说这是西方女性对于西方历史的“女权主义”解读,那么我不知道就我所知的中国历史如果让我来解读是否应该是 History is women obliterated, exploited, destroyed, distorted, manipulated and manipulating men from behind. 客观一点来看,真如莫文蔚所唱的:男人大可不必百口莫辩,女人实在无须楚楚可怜。

如今的时尚是“混搭”,不仅仅是服装,还有美食,讲究fusion cuisine,电影也是如此,要么把不同族群的人混搭起来,要么把不同的元素揉在一起,成为一个美妙的大疙瘩。

 8 ) 不一样的校园片

校园片的一个特点就是励志,肯定有一位春风化雨的老师,这是必需的,然后肯定还有一位代表顽固实力的校长或是训导主任之类的反派角色.而学生方面,肯定都是内心期望着变革,可是肯定是毫无勇气挑战传统的,直到那位老师来了之后,革命的暴风雨也为之降临,而结尾毫无疑问的是,那位优秀的老师在传统的势力下默默的离开,然而他却赢得了学生的心.
但是这部戏却恰恰相反,学生们居然是一群渴望得到高分的学生,对于原来老师的春风化雨式的教学方式很不买账.认为诗歌只类不过是一种浪费时间的课程,他们需要的,是可以让他们得到大学录取通知书的课程.这一点就是让人大吃一惊,还有这么势利的学生.
这里面的老师也是非常的奇怪,两个用来作对比的老师有一个同样的特点,都是同性恋.只不过,一个经常对男学生动手动脚,采取很明目张胆的方式,结果,被人起诉了.而另一个,却是掩饰自己的取向,让自己看上去没什么两样.而且,他的教学方式是激进的,是直接指向目标的,却和他的生活态度也有了很大的反差.
学生除了上面说到的势利之外,根本没有以往电影中那种对于传统的反叛,他们一个个的都很正常.知道什么时候该做什么,一心用功在学习上.一次次看他们从图书馆借了厚厚的一摞书,然后拼命用功的样子,真是让人感到振奋,自己的高中时代不也是一样.有一个不同的就是,他们的感情问题也是出了问题,其中一个居然爱上了自己的好朋友,当然了,也是男的.然后他向同样是同性恋的老师倾诉,当然了,没有俗套的爱上了老师,只不过老师让他从容面对而已.虽然少了情节上发展的空间,不过显得更加真实.
这群男生的组合也相当的多姿多彩,传统的小白脸之外,还有一个开朗的大胖子,简直就是那个老师的翻版,而且还很愿意学女生,真是别具一格;一个运动方面的专家,说萨特非常擅长高尔夫;一个犹太人,不能自慰,而且对于集中营的惨剧认识很深;还有一个穆斯林,却被人与印度人混为一谈;还有一个黑人...总之,不是传统的白人天下,这么多的男生,总有一款适合那些女观众吧.
最后的那个结尾,虽然我认为有点悲惨,一个皆大欢喜的结局难道不好?但是,当镜头慢慢的拉开,用一种回忆的语气谈论那些男生之后的生活时,一种沧桑感突然的涌上了心头,突然间,这部喜剧有了深度.它所说的不仅是大学录取前的补习课了,更变成了,一个优秀老师对于学生影响的很好的诠释.这点和其他的校园片没什么两样,可是,这样不好么?
还有,这部电影的台词真是太赞了.让我们顺便体验了一下英国诗歌的美.

有一个疑问,为什么同样是大学的入学考试,斯国的可以如此的多姿多彩,反身自顾,我操.真希望中国早日有这么一部影片出现,而且还是现实主义作品.

就在我沉醉在随时从他们几位即将自由开展人生使用身体的年轻人嘴里冒出的诗句反观自己不说英国文学就是在中国古典文学面前也只有跪舔的份儿时,Hector在Posner这个少年时的自己背诵哈代一首关于“正名与归宿”的诗结尾后讲出了真正的文学意义——不在于你记住了多少诗句,而在于它是否抓住了你的手。

“死亡诗社”的另一诠释,英美差异显露无遗。英国人的高人一等幽默风趣僵硬严谨智慧闪耀,Hmmm……我更喜欢英国制造。女教师关于“历史无女人”那段太犀利了。我爱Rudge直板板的抛弃牛津去铺地毯的气质,我爱小受老师僵硬的举止闪烁的眼神苍白的嘴唇,我爱色老师浪费生命的教学方法,我爱小天使 posner的眼神和歌声,念诗那段太美了!最后——换掉男主!受不了一群天使围绕着一个自大白痴丑男主!我要舞台版的Jamie King!

这简直就是腐国的精华啊,诗歌与搅基双管齐下。对白犀利,语速惊人,信息量让人目不暇接,言语之物也是那般深刻,宗教信仰、身份和性格带来的小幽默还都是点到即止,那种只有过来人才懂,会心一笑之后当成一个荤段子,比如基督小哥自告奋勇坐上胖老师的摩托车享受同性按摩。★★★★

7/10。虚拟语态、文学互动下确凿的史实被颠覆和解构,学生戴金用虚拟时态向欧文表示,哈利法克斯去看牙医的决定影响了二战英国的胜败,就以一个偶然的因素表达历史和人生的无常,而当赫克托向学生讲述哈代反映祖鲁战争的诗歌里的鼓手的时候,他把自己的遭遇同那个被埋于无名荒野的鼓手联系在一起,同性恋的赫克托在学校中始终被剥夺话语权,也是历史话语的偏见的受害者。历史无正解,它是一件接一件狗屁事,也是女老师愤愤不平谈论历史是男人的无聊论调,截然不同的两人也难以给出明确答案,赫克托独特教学方式不会空谈知识的乐趣,天马行空地借历史教授诗歌、戏剧和电影桥段,欧文则拘泥于名校的规则,面对学生赤裸裸的表白求欢也不敢逾越出界,完全没有课堂上教授学生逆向思维的离经叛道,假冒牛津毕业的声誉,实际上摧毁了自己非名校毕业的知识潜力。
