《饥饿游戏》凯妮丝生存与人性的挣扎.

2017-08-14 作者： 233阅读

　　北美洲在一场大战后被摧毁，在美国原来的废墟上，人们建立了新的家园，但新政权规定：管辖下的12个地区每年都必须进贡少年男女，参加一档电视直播节目“饥饿游戏”(Hunger Game)。节目的规则很简单——杀人或者被杀。

　　凯妮丝(詹妮弗·劳伦斯饰)的妹妹不幸在12区“选择日”时被选中，由于要保护妹妹，凯妮丝自告奋勇要替妹妹上场。她不得不与心上人盖尔分开，跟同时被选为12区贡品代表的皮塔(乔什·哈切森饰)进入游戏。尽管凯妮丝自小就进行狩猎，拥有过人的弓箭技巧，对节目里的重重障碍都能应付自如，但她在比赛中要与残忍强壮的他区选手互相周旋，要想成为最后的赢家就必须成为一个没有人性的杀人机器，这对她是一个极大的考验。

　　《饥饿游戏》是美国作家苏珊·柯林斯(Suzanne Collins)同名青少年科幻小说三部曲中的第一部(其余两部分别名为《星火燎原 Catching Fire》和《自由梦幻 Mockingjay》)。

　　Caesar: From District 12, District 12... You know her as The Girl on Fire! Well, we know her as the lovely Katniss Everdeen! Welcome! Welcome. Welcome. Well, that was quite an entrance you made the other day.

　　Katniss: What?

　　Caesar: I think someone&aposs a little nervous. I said that was quite an entrance that you made at the Tribute Parade the other day. Do you want to tell us about it?

　　Katniss: Well, I was just hoping that I wouldn&apost burn to death.

　　Caesar: When you came out of that chariot, I have to say, my heart stopped. Did any of you experience this as well? My heart stopped.

　　Katniss: So did mine.

　　Caesar: Now, tell me about the flames. Are they real?

　　Katniss: Yes. In fact, I&aposm wearing them today. Would you like to see?

　　Caesar: Wait, wait, wait. Is it safe?

　　Katniss: Yes.

　　Caesar: What do you think, folks? I think that&aposs a yes. (Katniss whirls the fire dress) Steady. Steady. Lovely. Thank you. That was really something. Katniss, that was something. That was something. Thank you for that. I have one more question for you. It&aposs about your sister. We were all very moved, I think, when you volunteered for her at the Reaping. Did she come and say goodbye to you?

　　Katniss: Yes. She did.

　　Caesar: She did. And what did you say to her in the end?

　　Katniss: I told her that I would try to win. That I would try to win for her.

　　Caesar: Of course you did. And try you will. Ladies and gentlemen, from District 12, Katniss Everdeen, The Girl on Fire!

　　Effie: You did it, darling. That was incredible.

　　Katniss: Thank you.

　　Haymitch: Nice job, sweetheart.

　　Katniss: Thank you.

　　Haymitch: Nice dress, too. Not yours.

　　Caesar: Please welcome Peeta Mellark! Peeta, welcome. How are you finding The Capitol? And don&apost say, "With a map."

　　Peeta: It&aposs different. It&aposs very different than back home.

　　Caesar: Different. In what way? Give us an example.

　　Peeta: Okay. Well, the showers here are weird.

　　Caesar: The showers?

　　Peeta: Yes.

　　Caesar: We have different showers.

　　Peeta: I have a question for you, Caesar. Do I smell like roses to you? Take a whiff?

　　Caesar: All right.

　　Peeta: You see?

　　Caesar: Yes. Do I smell like it?

　　Peeta: You dinitely smell better than I do.

　　Caesar: Well, I&aposve lived here longer.

　　Peeta: That makes sense.

　　Caesar: Very funny. So, Peeta, tell me, is there a special girl back home?

　　Peeta: No. No. Not really.

　　Caesar: No? I don&apost believe it for a second. Look at that face. Handsome man like you. Peeta, tell me.

　　Peeta: Well, there...There is this one girl that I&aposve had a crush on forever. But I don&apost think she actually recognized me until the Reaping.

　　Caesar: Well, I&aposll tell you what, Peeta. You go out there and you win this thing, and when you get home, she&aposll have to go out with you. Right, folks?

　　Peeta: Thanks, but I don&apost think winning&aposs gonna help me at all.

　　Caesar: And why not?

　　Peeta: Because she came here with me.

　　Caesar: Well, that&aposs bad luck.

　　Peeta: Yeah, it is.

　　Caesar: And I wish you all the best of luck.

　　Peeta: Thank you.

　　Caesar: Peeta Mellark. District 12!

　　Katniss: What the hell was that? You don&apost talk to me, and then you say you have a crush on me? You say you want to train alone? Is that how you want to play?

　　Haymitch: Stop it! Stop it!

　　Katniss: Let&aposs start right now!

　　Haymitch: Hey! He did you a favor.

　　Katniss: He made me look weak.

　　Haymitch: He made you look desirable, which in your case, can&apost hurt, sweetheart.

　　Cinna: He&aposs right, Katniss.

　　Haymitch: Of course I&aposm right. Now, I can sell the star-crossed lovers from District 12...

　　Katniss: We are not star-crossed lovers.

　　Haymitch: It&aposs a television show! And being in love with that boy might just get you sponsors, which could save your damn life. Okay. Why don&apost you get out of here? Maybe I can deliver you both in one piece tomorrow.

　　Effie: Manners!
