(很大腕) Looking for Eric倒數一周上映不專業譯文報導(part-1)


時光匆匆,
離坎佬的電影上映日期只剩一周時間(當然不是台灣),
法國在Cannes(坎城影展)加持下,已經搶先上映,
目前Looking for Eric在IMDB上的評分維持在8分的高檔,
可見該片是有一定的水準存在.

英國衛報(The Guardian)在五月初針對影片作了篇長文如下(節錄):

The awkward squad Ken Loach and Eric Cantona looked like a mismatch, until they worked together and it turned out they're soul brothers - uncompromising and intense. So how come the result is Loach's most light-hearted movie in years?

->如此怪異的團隊- 肯洛區與艾瑞克坎東納,看似一組不協調的配對.直到他們一同拍片工作,結果,他們變成了心靈之交:不妥協與熱情的交流.何以該片成為肯洛區近年拍起來最得心應手的影片?


April 9 2008, and they are spotted together for the first time. Nobody can quite believe it. Ken Loach is sitting next to Eric Cantona in the directors' box at Old Trafford for Manchester United's Champions League match with Roma. Surely some mistake.

->2008年的四月九號,是他們第一次聚在一起的日子.沒人敢相信這個事實.在老特拉福的足球包廂內,肯洛區就坐在坎東納旁.這天是曼聯與羅馬在歐冠的比賽日.顯然的,有些誤會了...


June 16 2008: Eric Cantona stands in a Manchester pub whispering arcane Cantona-isms to a scruffy, unshaven bloke. Cantona is playing big Eric, himself; the other man is Little Eric, a postman who has cracked up, driven hundreds of times round a roundabout at speed the wrong way, ended up in a psychiatric hospital, smoked too much cannabis on his release and now believes that his idol Eric Cantona has become his friend and mentor.

->2008年六月十六號,坎東納站在位於曼徹斯特一家酒館內,神秘的對著一位衣裝不齊、沒刮鬍子的傢伙,輕聲細語著"坎東納式的論述".坎東納扮演大艾瑞克;另一位是小艾瑞克.他是一位已精神崩潰的郵差,且曾千百次繞道駕駛走錯路,結果被送進精神病院.但離開後抽太多的大麻菸,之後相信崇拜的偶像坎東納成為了他的朋友與良師.


Little Eric learns that he has to think positive and take risks to have a chance in life. Looking For Eric is also a film about old-fashioned solidarity - Cantona tells the postman you must always trust your team-mates, something he grows to appreciate through the film.

->小艾瑞克得知必須要有樂觀的思維與敢於冒險,方可在生活中得到機會."尋找艾瑞克"(姑且就直接直譯)也是部關於過往團結力的電影,坎東納告訴郵差必須始終相信他自己的隊友,這些感觸是過去他從比賽中所得到,並透過這部片子將其理念傳遞出去.


Looking For Eric is Loach's first comedy in 20 years. It's a wonderful, humane, feel-good movie. Though, as you'd expect with a Loach film, he still plumbs the depths along the way. The film deals with broken men, drugs, poverty, violence, betrayal, corruption.

->"尋找艾瑞克"是洛區導戲20多年來的第一部喜劇.這是一部完美、有人情味且讓人神清氣爽的電影.儘管你對洛區的影片總有些期待,他仍在影片中探究些有深度的東西.這部影片探討到灰心喪氣的人、毒品、貧困、暴力、背叛與貪腐...
