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。
I look for the character to be something interesting, the script to have a good story and be original, and a director that I admire.
我希望角色有趣,剧本有一个好故事,有独创性,还有一个我欣赏的导演。
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。
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。
Memorizing a playbook is like memorizing a script. When they change the script at the last minute it's like changing a play in a game.
记住剧本就像记住剧本一样。当他们在最后一刻更改脚本时,就像在游戏中更改游戏玩法一样。
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。
You stick to the script, the script is Bible.
你坚持剧本,剧本就是圣经。
