分享-電影The Lost City《失落謎城》的最長一個對話

《失落謎城》是一部2022年美國喜劇冒險片,主演包括珊卓·布拉克、查寧·塔圖、帕蒂·哈里遜、奧斯卡·努納茲、達芬·喬伊·藍道夫和丹尼爾·雷德克里夫。評價不高,可能是喜劇部分太過誇張,不是那麼討喜。但是對話中還是有些看頭,結局也出人意表。
現在推薦的是劇中最長的一句對話,就不敘述原因或過程了,以免劇透。
Dash說:
It was Sarasota, by the way. It's not nowhere. I grew up there with my mom and two sisters. And yeah... I started modeling 'cause I wanted to get away. It was the only job that I could think of that could take me to all of the places that I always dreamed of going. Then finally to Los Angeles, where I posed on the cover of your romance novel. And I was so embarrassed that one of my friends might've seen me in that wig on the cover of your book that I avoided talking to them for months. And then one day, I'm walking home, and I hear this lady yell, "Dash!" She runs up, and she is so happy. Then I thought, "How could I be this embarrassed about something that makes people this happy?" Loretta, you can do whatever you want. If you don't want to write anymore, don't write. But don't minimize the people that love your work by calling it schlock. That's not fair to them. You know what's ironic? I thought you of all people would know not to judge a book by its cover.

Loretta自言自語:
Judge a book by its cover model.

這對話的重點在最後一句,其實也是個常見的諺語"never judge a book by its cover" or "don't judge a book by its cover",勿以貌取人
而且,Loretta的回話也蠻幽默的^^。其他一些對話,之後再分享。
