A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
脚本
Script
When I'm shooting, I don't care who the star is. I have an actor playing a part, and I'm serving the script, not serving anyone's career.
当我在拍摄的时候，我不在乎谁是明星。我有一个演员在扮演一个角色，我在为剧本服务，而不是为任何人的事业服务。
I think I do have a good eye. It's quite liberating, being in a position to read a script and say, 'No.' It's really the only power you have, as an actor.
我想我的眼睛很好。能读到剧本然后说‘不’，这是一种解放。作为一名演员，这真的是你唯一拥有的力量。
I'd love to see a good script of one of my books, in these years of animations and comic book sequels, and had so many written over the years, but none quite clicked.
我很想看到我的一本书的一个好剧本，在这些年的动画和连环漫画的续集中，我写了很多，但是没有一个是很合拍的。
And I tell ya, when I sit in that sound booth and started reading the script and starting to get into the character, man, it's an easy jump for me, because I understand what it's all about.
我告诉你，当我坐在录音棚里开始读剧本，开始进入角色时，伙计，这对我来说很容易，因为我明白这是怎么回事。
The challenging thing is that we go home after doing the run-through and the writers stay there working, so sometimes I get script changes delivered to me at midnight. It's constantly shifting.
最具挑战性的事情是，我们做完排练后回家，编剧们还在那里工作，所以有时我会在午夜接到剧本修改通知。它是不断变化。
When I start thinking about a role, I read the script a few times and then let it sink in - and then take some time to develop how that character is going to play out and what he's going to do.
当我开始考虑一个角色的时候，我把剧本读了几遍，然后让它进入我的脑海——然后花一些时间来发展这个角色将会如何表现，他将会做什么。
Unfortunately, the public might not know that we get a script usually two days before shooting. So sometimes I'm shooting an episode and don't even know how it's going to end because I haven't read that yet.
不幸的是，公众可能不知道我们通常在拍摄前两天就拿到了剧本。所以有时候我在拍一集的时候甚至不知道结局会是怎样，因为我还没有读过。
What's fascinating is that when you write a script, it's almost a stream of consciousness. You have an idea that it means something, but you're not always sure what. Then when you get on the set, the actors teach you.
有趣的是，当你写剧本时，它几乎是一种意识流。你有一个想法，它意味着什么，但你并不总是确定什么。然后当你进入片场，演员们会教你。
It could be a great script but the director is not the right person for me to work for at this time. So there are a lot of elements that come into play and a lot of variables, but more than anything it's got to be a great script and a great character.
它可能是一个伟大的剧本，但导演不是我这个时候工作的合适人选。所以有很多元素和变量，但最重要的是，它必须是一个伟大的剧本和一个伟大的角色。
Of course you want to be good and you want to do the best you can, but I am inspired by great writing. If there's something about the script, that's what I go for, although I know that that doesn't always translate because sometimes it's about the vision of the director.
当然，你想成为一个优秀的人，你想尽你所能做到最好，但是我被伟大的写作所鼓舞。如果剧本里有什么东西，那就是我所追求的，尽管我知道这并不总是翻译出来的，因为有时它是关于导演的愿景。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Once you've agreed the script, you must be willing to go as far as it needs to go on set.
一旦你同意了剧本，你就必须心甘情愿地去拍摄。
We all write, but the script is a blueprint. We can lose whole scenes when we're shooting.
我们都在写作，但剧本是蓝图。我们在拍摄时可能会失去整个场景。
When I first read the script a few years ago I thought it was one of the best written scripts I had ever read.
几年前，当我第一次读到这个剧本时，我认为这是我读过的最好的剧本之一。
Well, there's no question that a good script is an absolutely essential, maybe the essential thing for a movie.
毫无疑问，一个好的剧本是绝对必要的，也许对于一部电影来说是必不可少的。
Well if somebody's giving me a script, I'll consider it. But it's not something I'm chasing.
如果有人给我剧本，我会考虑的。但这不是我追求的东西。
I have a tendency to say yes to a script or no to a script. Not yes based on a rewrite.
我倾向于对剧本说“是”或“不是”。不是基于重写。
