总算还有点分寸、还不算太不像话
半夜盖布和朱迪聊起莎莉的旧情,提到那个男人一直没打电话;盖布说他至少还把号码扔了,用 had the decency to 给了他一点勉强的肯定。
So he never called her. At least he had the decency to throw the number away.Husbands and Wives · 1992 — 第 2 / 15 章 · 3'20" · C1
凌晨一点,两人躺在床上,话题从杰克和莎莉的分手,一路引到自己:会不会也分手?要不要再生一个?一句 It's cruel to bring life into this terrible world(把生命带到这个糟糕的世界太残忍),被顶回来:don't glorify your refusal on philosophical grounds(别把拒绝包装成哲学)。想学夫妻深夜互怼怎么说,这些最真实。
深夜一点,盖布和朱迪躺在床上,话题从朋友的分手聊到自己。朱迪提杰克从没给那个女人打电话、还知道把号码扔了,也算 had the decency to(总算还有点分寸),又顺口说莎莉在床上很冷淡,接着反问:那我呢?气氛开始走偏。她说你今晚情绪怪怪的,是杰克和莎莉的分手影响了你;两个人干脆问出口:我们会不会也分手?往下是更重的题:她想要第二个孩子,对方却说把生命带到这个糟糕的世界太残忍,被一句 don't glorify your refusal on philosophical grounds(别把拒绝包装成哲学)顶了回去。想学亲密关系里试探、抱怨、翻旧账的说法,这些对话全是素材。

夜里两人在床上聊杰克和苏珊的事;丈夫提到苏珊在性事上冷淡,妻子回一句 that shouldn't come as a surprise,意思是这事你早该知道。
Sally's cold... Well, that shouldn't come as a surprise.把小事升级成大事
We had one minor, little argument years ago about that, which you blew up into a major confrontation, and I can't get it off...有冲动去做某事
Do you ever have the urge to sleep with a whore?情绪反常、状态怪怪的
You-You're in an odd mood tonight. I can see it.分手
You think... You think we'd ever break up?这问的什么话(表示被问得无语)
What kind of question is that? I'm not planning it. Are you?把某个话题再从头过一遍
Hey, are we gonna have to go through that conversation again?把一个生命带到世上来
It's cruel to bring life into this terrible world, you know? It's not...以某种理由为依据

Well, you know, our schedules are not exactly conducive to...只好互相耗着、甩不掉彼此
Well, then we're definitely stuck with one another.Oh, don't glorify your refusal on philosophical grounds.哦,别把你的拒绝包装成什么哲学立场。 一句话戳破用大道理掩盖的小气:不是世界太糟,是你不想。它把漂亮的借口拆到只剩动机。
Oh, that's just bullshit. You know, when we wanted to, we found time.哦,那纯粹是胡扯。你知道,我们想做的时候,总能挤出时间。 用一句大白话拆掉「没时间」的托词:时间从来不是问题,愿不愿意才是。
Well, then we're definitely stuck with one another.那我们就只好互相耗着了。 把「谁更吃得开」的较量收成一句自嘲:比来比去,最后谁也没赢,还得一起过。
Remember that? Now you remember it, you know, in a glorified way.记得吗?现在你回想起来,却把它美化了。 点破人对过去的自动修图:当年的勉强,回头都成了浪漫。这句比争吵更狠,因为它说的是记忆本身在撒谎。
意思是「就我所知」,说话人给自己留余地,表示信息不一定百分之百准。片里用它补一句「据我所知他没打那个电话」。
had the decency to。decency 是「体面、分寸」,原句说至少他还知道把号码扔掉,算是 had the decency to do something。
come as a surprise,字面是「作为意外到来」。原句说莎莉冷淡这事 shouldn't come as a surprise,就是「也不该让人意外」。
straitlaced,形容人古板、拘谨、放不开。原句说杰克不是找妓女的人,Jack is very straitlaced,就是「杰克很正经」。
have the urge to。urge 是强烈的冲动,原句 Do you ever have the urge to sleep with a whore,就是问「有没有过这种冲动」。
be stuck with one another。stuck 是「被困住」,原句 Well, then we're definitely stuck with one another,语气无奈又带点认命。
