成为约翰·马尔科维奇

Malkovich, on his 44th birthday.
到时他将会成熟
That’s when he becomes ripe.
我必须在那天午夜之前进入
But I must enter by midnight on that day.
否则 我会转入下一个新生婴儿体内
After that, I’d get diverted into the next newly forming infant vessel.
我不要那样
I don’t want that to happen.
因为我会被吸收
I’d be absorbed.
吸收 什么意思
Absorbed? What does that mean?
像囚犯一样被困在宿主的脑袋里
Well, uh, trapped, held prisoner, if you like, in the host’s brain…
无法控制
unable to control anything…
注定永远用别人的眼光看世界
forever doomed to watch the world through someone else’s eyes.
我介绍一些朋友给你认识
Now I’d like you to meet some friends.
我一个人很寂寞…
See, I got lonely in Lester by myself…
所以这次我带别人一起去
so I figured out a way this time to take others along with me.
来吧
Come.
各位 这是洛蒂
Everyone, this is Lotte.
嗨 洛蒂
Hi, Lotte!

You mean, with Malkovich?

Really?

This is something that I call…

你看 玛克辛 这不只是玩洋娃娃
You see, Maxine, it isn’t just playing with dolls.

My darling, how will we make a living
假如我们的顾客不能使用我们的产品呢
if our clientele doesn’t have access to our product?
我们有马尔科维奇的存款

加上他又偶而有戏约
plus he does get acting work occasionally.
不 拜托
No, please!
闭嘴 我们在想事情
Shut up! We’re trying to think here.
这跟操纵木偶有点像
It is… It is sort of like puppeteering.
我喜欢那样
I-I-I like that about it.
没错
Exactly!
没有人会知道这不是他
And no one would ever even have to know it’s not him.
我可以用马尔科维奇的名气
And I could use Malkovich’s existing notoriety…
来开创我的木偶事业
to launch my own puppeteering career.
喔 克雷格 太棒了
Oh, Craigy. Craigy, that’s brilliant.
我一直想知道有屌♥感觉
So lovely. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to have a penis.

玛克辛
Maxine?
我在忙
I’m busy.
玛克辛 甜心 开始了
Maxine, honey, it’s on!
有实话 也有谎言
Yeah, there’s the truth, and there are lies…
艺术永远说实话 即使是在说谎时
and, uh, art always tells the truth, even when it’s lying.
谜样的约翰·马尔科维奇
The enigmatic John Malkovich…
世界上最伟大的表演者之一
one of the world’s greatest entertainers and the man who reinvented…
改变世人对木偶戏的观感

他年纪轻轻就成为芝加哥闻名世界

史戴凡沃夫剧团的创始团员
of Chicago’s world-renowned Steppenwolf Theatre Company.
从此他平步青云进入百老汇
From there, it was a simple hop, skip and a ijump to Broadway accolades…

很不错 我看起来真的很棒
It’s really good! I look really amazing. I’d fuck me.
让我苦恼的是…
If there’s anything that upsets me about it…
如果我太快投入…
it’s feeling like if I move into it too quickly…
我会被视为模仿者
I’ll be, you know, deemed an imitator.
但我想只要我们有勇气…
But, um, I think that once we all get the courage…
跟随直觉 就像马尔科维奇那样…
to just follow through on our instincts, like Malkovich has…
我想 很多人都会投入木偶戏

不对 你在做什么
No, no, no. What are you doing? What are you doing?
我在让他哭
I’m making him weep, John.
你让他哭 自己却没哭
You’re making him weep, but you are not weeping.
不要…你的观众
Don’t ever… with your audience.
除非木偶成为你的延伸
Until the… the puppet becomes… an extension of you,
否则都是廉价 粗俗的把戏
it’s a novelty act. It’s, uh… It’s Topo Gigio.
不是吗
No?
他是工艺天才
He’s a technical genius.
他把生命注入无生命的对象
He breathes life into inanimate obijects.
这是非常庄严的事…
It’s a very godlike thing…
能够让东西活起来
to be able to take something and, you know, make it live.

He was the talk of the town…
从小剧场到百老汇…

aided in no small part by his new wife and manager, Maxine Lund.
在玛克辛身上 马尔科维奇找到他的精神支柱…
In Maxine, Malkovich had found his mentor…
谬思和灵感
his muse, his inspiration.
