不太合规矩的时机
I realize this is unorthodox timing and a rather unusual venue for the reading of the will,Uncle Frank · 2020 — 第 15 / 17 章 · 1'53" · C1
葬礼期间当众宣读遗嘱,父亲把财产分给妻子和其他子女,轮到长子时却只说:留给你 nothing but disgust(尽是厌恶),还嫌你顶着这个姓丢人。弗兰克起身就走,身后是一句 Please don't go(求你别走)。想学冷酷的绝情话,也想学挽留,这两句对照着学最扎心。
葬礼期间,律师在宅子里宣读遗嘱:麦克把 whole of my estate(全部财产)留给妻子,with the exception of(除……之外)几笔指定的金额分给其他子女。可念到长子时,气氛骤冷——遗嘱给弗兰克的只有 nothing but disgust(只剩下厌恶),还嫌他竟还 carry my name(顶着这个姓)是一种耻辱。弗兰克默默起身离席,身后是 I'm so sorry(真的很抱歉)和 Please don't go(求你别走)。想学法律文书里的分配说法,也想学冷酷的绝情话和挽留,这几句都很典型。

律师说麦克想确保遗嘱在孩子们都还在的时候宣读,用 make sure 把这份安排说成有意为之。
but Mac wanted to make sure that it happened while all his kids were still here.趁孩子们都还在
but Mac wanted to make sure that it happened while all his kids were still here.make sure that 加 while:make sure that 后面接一件必须发生的事,再用 while 限定条件:趁孩子都还在的时候。它把宣读遗嘱的时机解释成逝者的安排,也埋下了公开羞辱的伏笔。
but Mac wanted to make sure that it happened while all his kids were still here.神志清醒、身体健康(法律用语)
"I, Francis MacKenzie Bledsoe, being of sound mind and body,sound mind and body 里 mind 末尾的音接上 and,and 又被压得很轻,听起来像 min-dan-body。
"I, Francis MacKenzie Bledsoe, being of sound mind and body,临终遗嘱
do hereby declare this to be my last will and testament.我的全部财产
First, to my wife Evelyn Caldwell Bledsoe, I leave the whole of my estate and assets,除……之外(其余都包括)
遗嘱把全部财产留给妻子,with the exception of the following designated amounts,为后面那笔「什么都没有」的分配做铺垫。
with the exception of the following designated amounts.只剩下厌恶、尽是厌恶
父亲在遗嘱里留给长子 nothing but disgust,用最正式的文件写下最狠的否定。
I leave nothing but disgust with the filthy and unnatural perversion he engages in with other men,省略关系词的从句:perversion 后面直接接 he engages in,关系代词被省掉,句意是「他与其他男人从事的那种行为」。这种省略让语气更冷、更像判决书。
I leave nothing but disgust with the filthy and unnatural perversion he engages in with other men,nothing but 里 nothing 末尾的音和 but 撞在一起,听起来像 nothin-bbut,中间几乎不留缝。
I leave nothing but disgust with the filthy and unnatural perversion he engages in with other men,变态、反常(带强烈道德谴责)——perversion 在这里被用来给同性恋扣上「变态」的帽子,是仇恨言论的用词。理解它的伤害性即可,现实中不应拿它评判任何人。
I leave nothing but disgust with the filthy and unnatural perversion he engages in with other men,顶着某人的姓氏、承袭其名
遗嘱说弗兰克竟然还姓布莱索,父亲把「顶着我的姓」也写成了耻辱。
and shame that he carries my name." [gasps softly]that 定语从句:that 从句修饰 shame,说明这是怎样一种耻辱:他还顶着我的姓。把羞耻绑在姓氏上,等于宣布血缘本身成了罪证。
and shame that he carries my name." [gasps softly]求你别走
Frank, please don't go.再也不会回来
He's never gonna come back.come back 连读时 come 末尾的音接上 back,听起来像 com-back,两个词像一整个。
He's never gonna come back.天哪(惊叹,带宗教色彩)——Jesus 单独用作感叹,表示震惊或无力。日常口语常见,但对虔诚的人或正式场合说可能冒犯,可用 jeez。
Jesus.He's never gonna come back.他再也不会回来了。 一句判断道尽当众羞辱的后果:不是赌气走开,而是彻底退出。
I leave nothing but disgust with the filthy and unnatural perversion he engages in with other men,我什么都不留,只留下对他与其他男人所做肮脏、悖逆之事的厌恶, 把最重的羞辱写进遗嘱语法:留给儿子的不是财产,只有厌恶。
but Mac wanted to make sure that it happened while all his kids were still here.但麦克想确保这件事办完,趁他的孩子都还在这儿。 把时机说成逝者的意志:他偏要等所有人到齐才宣布,周全里全是控制。
but Mac wanted to make sure that it happened while all his kids were still here.但麦克想让这件事趁孩子们都还在的时候办完。 一句冷静的转述,把当众羞辱说成逝者生前的精心安排。
意思是「只剩下厌恶、尽是厌恶」,nothing but 加强语气,表示除了厌恶什么都没有。台词里父亲说给弗兰克的 nothing but disgust,等于当众宣判他什么也得不到。
with the exception of,表示「除……之外,其余都包括在内」。遗嘱里说把财产全留给妻子,with the exception of 几笔指定金额,就是「这几笔除外」。
make sure that。台词里说 Mac wanted to make sure that it happened while all his kids were still here,就是「麦克想确保趁孩子们都还在时把这事办了」。
Please don't go。弗兰克起身离席时,身后有人连说 Please don't go,就是「求你别走」,可以用来挽留一个正要离开的人。
因为父亲无法接受他的同性恋身份,在遗嘱里写明只留给他厌恶和耻辱,甚至嫌他顶着这个姓。这段是全片最刺痛的一刀。
