非常爱情
And what,in the opinion of Your Highness,is the outlook for friendship among nations?
公主殿下,您如何看待国家之间友好关系的前景?
I have very faith in it... as I have faith in relationship between people.
对此我充满信心,就像我对人与人之间的关系一样充满信心。
Late into the night,Princess Anne escapes from the embassy. She sleeps in the street,happens to be met by Joe,a journalist.
Selected Scene 1:
Anne:So happy... how are you this evening?
Joe:Hey,hey,hey... wake up.
Anne:Thank you. Very much delighted.
Joe:Wake up.
Anne:No,thank you. Charmed.
Joe:Charmed too.
Anne:You may sit down.
Joe:I think you’d better sit up. You’re much too young to get picked up by the police.
Anne:Police?
Joe:Yup,police.
Anne:Oh,2:15 and back here to change... 2:45...
Joe:You know,people who can’t handle liquor shouldn’t drink.
Anne:“If I were dead and buried and I heard your voice,beneath the sod,my heart of dust would still rejoice”... Do you know that poem?
Joe:What do you know?You’re well-read,well-dressed... snoozing away in a public street. Would you care to make a statement?
Anne:What the world needs is a return to sweetness and decency in the souls of its young men...
Joe:Yeah,I couldn’t agree with you more,but... (Joe summons a tax) Get yourself some coffee... you’ll be all right. Look,you take the cab.
Anne:Hmm.
Joe:Come on. Climb in the cab and go home.
Anne:So happy.
Joe:You got any money?
Anne:I never carry money.
Joe:That’s a bad habit. All right,I’ll wrap you up. Come up.
Anne:It’s a tax.
Joe:It’s not the Super-chief.
Driver:Where are you going?
Anne:Coliseum.
Joe:No,come on,you’re not that drunk.
Anne:You’re so smart. I’m not drunk at all. I’m just being very happy.
Joe:Don’t go to sleep again. Come on.
Driver:Where are we going?
Joe:Look,now where do you want to go?Where shall I take you?Where do you live?Come on. Where do you live?Come on. Where do you live?
Anne:Coliseum.
Joe:(to the driver) She lives in the coliseum.
Selected Scene 2:
Joe has no choice but to take Anne back to his room.
Anne:Is this the elevator?
Joe:It’s my room.
Anne:I’m terribly sorry to mention it but business is getting worse. Can I sleep here?
Joe:That’s the general idea.
Anne:Can I have a silk gown with rosebuds on it?
Joe takes out a pajama from the closet.
Joe:I’m afraid you’ll have to rough it tonight. In these.
Anne:Pajamas!
Joe:Sorry honey,but I haven’t worn a nightgown in years.
Anne:Will you help me get undressed?Please.
Joe:Okay. There you are. You can handle the rest.
Joe opens a bottle of wine,and pours himself a glass.
Anne:May I have some?
Joe:No. Now look.
Anne:This is very unusual. I’ve never been alone with a man before. Even with my dress on. With my dress off it’s most unusual. I don’t seem to mind. Do you?
Joe:I think I’ll go out for a cup of coffee. You’d better go to sleep. No,no,no,on this one. (Joe takes Anne to the couch.)
Anne:Terribly nice.
Joe:There are pajamas. They’re to sleep in. You’re to climb into them. You understand?
Anne:Thank you.
Joe:And you do your sleeping on the couch,see. Not on the bed. No the chair. On the couch,is that clear?
Anne:Do you know my favorite poem?
Joe:You already recited that for me.
Anne:“I refuse a rose from a couch of snows in the Acrousseronean Mountains. ”Keats.
Joe:Shelly.
Anne:Keats!
Joe:You just keep your mind off the poetry and on the pajamas and everything will be all right,see.
Anne:Keats!
Joe:I’ll be... it’s Shelly... I’ll be back in about ten minutes.
Anne:Keats. You have my permission to withdraw.
Joe:Thank you very much.
Joe goes out. Ten minutes later,when he gets home,he finds Anne fast asleep.
Selected Scene 3:
Next morning,Joe wakes up late.
Joe:Holy smoke,the princess interview. Eleven forty-five.
Anne:Hmm.
Hush he hastens to his office.
Man:Hi,Joe.
Secretary:Good morning,Joe.
Joe:Hello,honey.
Secretary:Mr. Hennessy has been looking for you.
Joe:Uh-oh. Thanks a lot,honey.
Joe knocks at the door of Mr. Hennessy’s office.
Hennessy:Come in!
Joe:You’ve been looking for me?
Hennessy:Just coming in to work?
Joe:Who?Me?
Hennessy:We start our days at 8:30 in the office. We pick up our assignments...
Joe:I picked mine up last night.
Hennessy:What assignment was that?
Joe:The princess,11:45.
Hennessy:You’ve already been to the interview?
Joe:Sure,I just got back.
Hennessy:Well,well,well. All my apologies.
Joe:It’s all right.
Hennessy:This is very interesting.
Joe:No,just routine.
Hennessy:Tell me,tell me,did she answer all the questions on the list?
Joe:Well,of course she did. I’ve got them right here somewhere.
Hennessy:Don’t disturb yourself. I have a copy here. How did Her Highness react to the idea of a European Federation?
Joe:Thought it was just fine.
Hennessy:She did?
Joe:Well,she thought that there’d be two effects.
Hennessy:Two.
Joe:The direct and indirect.
Hennessy:Remarkable.
Joe:Naturally she thought that the indirect may not be as direct as the direct. At least not right away. Later on,of course,well,nobody knows.
Hennessy:Well,well,well. That was a shrewd observation. They fool you,you know these Royal kids. They’ve got a lot more on the ball than we suspect. How did she feel about the future friendship of nations?
