Letters Live丨英國版《見字如面》——彼得讀信:大衛(wèi)鮑伊給粉絲的信(2)

《Letters Live》(見信如晤) ，又稱英國版《見字如面》。節(jié)目邀請音樂、影視、文藝界的名人,如卷福、抖森等,現(xiàn)場朗讀近一個世紀以來令人難忘的書信。以下是Letters Live丨英國版《見字如面》——彼得讀信:大衛(wèi)鮑伊給粉絲的信(2)的資料，希望對你有所幫助！

 

In answer to your questions, my real name is David Jones and I don't have to tell you why I changed it. "Nobody's going to make a monkey out of you" said my manager. My birthday is January 8th and I guess I'm 5'10". There is a Fan Club here in England, but if things go well in the States then we'll have one there I suppose. It's a little early to even think about it.

現(xiàn)在回答你的問題時，我本名叫大衛(wèi)·瓊斯，我不會告訴你為什么改名字。經(jīng)紀人說:“沒有人會笑話你的。”我的生日是1月8日，身高大概5英尺10英寸吧。英國有個粉絲俱樂部，不過如果在美國發(fā)展順利的話，我想當?shù)匾矔闪⒁粋€粉絲俱樂部?，F(xiàn)在想這些還為時過早。

 

I hope one day to get to America. My manager tells me lots about it as he has been there many times with other acts he manages. I was watching an old film on TV the other night called "No Down Payment" a great film, but rather depressing if it is a true reflection of The American Way Of Life. However, shortly after that they showed a doc*mentary about Robert Frost the American poet, filmed mainly at his home in Vermont, and that evened the score. I am sure that that is nearer the real America. I made my first movie last week. Just a fifteen minutes short, but it gave me some good experience for a full length deal I have starting in January.

希望有一天能去美國。經(jīng)紀人跟我說了很多，因為他已經(jīng)和他手下的其他演員合作過很多次。前幾天晚上，我在電視上看了一部老電影，名字叫《沒有首付》(No Down Payment)。一部很棒的電影，不過如果電影反映的美國人的生活方式是真的，那就太令人沮喪了。然而，此后不久，他們放映了一部關(guān)于美國詩人羅伯特·弗羅斯特的紀錄片，主要在他佛蒙特州的家中取景。我相信這更貼近美國人的真實生活。上周，我拍了自己的第一部電影。雖然只是個15分鐘的短片，但是讓我有了一些不錯的經(jīng)驗，讓我可以在1月份開始一份（完整的）電影合約。

Thank you for being so kind as to write to me and do please write again and let me know some more about yourself.

感謝來來信，請再給我回信吧，讓我對你有更多的了解。

Yours sincerely,

謹啟

David Bowie
