伯恩斯坦的独白 那个渡轮上的年轻女子
Bernstein’s speech, the young woman on the ferry boat.
麻烦读给我听
Read it back, please.
“她身着白裙 撑着白阳伞
“A white dress she had on, and she was carrying a white parasol,
我只看到她一眼 她根本没看到我
and I only saw her for one second, and she didn’t see me at all.”
但那之后的一个月
“But I’ll bet a month hasn’t gone by since
我无时无刻不想着那姑娘”
that I haven’t thought of that girl.”

伯恩斯坦的原型是路易·梅耶吗
Is Bernstein meant to be Louis Mayer?
如果形式服从功能的话

伯恩斯坦这角色比他好多了
Bernstein is a far nicer character.

You don’t much like Mayer.
我要是有朝一日上了电椅
If I ever go to the electric chair,
我很希望他坐在我腿上
I’d like him to be sitting in my lap.
