How a Jim Carrey's moviebecame the most prescient film of the late '90s
金·凯瑞的电影如何成为90年代末最有先见之明的电影
第7段原文
Carrey had recently become a huge star, andhe identified with Truman's sense of being constantly watched. "I can drawoff the feelings I have," Carrey reportedly told the director. "I'm aprisoner." It would become the actor's first foray into drama, settinghim up for later roles in Man on the Moon and Eternal Sunshine of the SpotlessMind. Carrey and Weir initially clashed. "After a take, Jim would comeout and say, 'Let me have a look at that,'" the director recalls. "Iwas stunned. I said, 'You don't need to look. I'll tell you if it's working ornot—that's directing.' He said, 'No, no, I need to evaluate myperformance.'" Weir began allowing Carrey to view the takes he printed, thenrealized this was interfering with the character's unwitting innocence: "Isaid to him, 'Jim, it's harming your performance. Truman doesn't know he's ontelevision. So you shouldn't be looking at yourself.' He trusted me."
第7段翻译
凯瑞在此部电影不久后成了巨星，他理解楚门时刻被监视的感觉。“我可以把我的感觉演绎出来，”据说凯瑞如此和威尔说道。“我是个囚犯。”这将是凯瑞第一次涉足此类风格，为他之后在《月亮上的男人》和《暖暖内含光》中的角色奠定了基础。凯瑞和威尔最初发生了冲突。“一个镜头后，金就会停下来说，‘让我看下镜头’”威尔回忆道。“我都惊呆了。我说，‘你不需要看镜头。能不能过我会告诉你的——这就是导演的工作。’但他说，‘不，不可以，我需要评估自己的表演。’”威尔开始让凯瑞看他拍摄的镜头，但却发现这会影响演员发挥一无所知的状态：“我说，‘金，这不利于你的表演。楚门不知道他上了电视。所以你也不应该看到镜头里的自己。’他被我说服了。”
