从海报中可以看出《神偷奶爸3》的英文片名叫其实叫despicable me,直译为《卑鄙的我》,一起来学习一下这个词的用法:
despicable 形容词“卑劣的,卑鄙的;应受鄙视的”
despicable这个词的原形来自“despise”
,这是一个及物动词(vt.),表示“鄙视,看不起”;前缀de表示“低下”后缀spise表示“看”
所以串在一起,就是“看得低下,看不起。
同义词contemptible ,那么despicable contemptible 的区别是什么?
这些形容词表示卑鄙的、不道德的、受到强烈指责的。
despicable指一无是处的作为;
contemptible指那些令人瞧不起的道德和行为,也可广泛地被用于对任何事情的评价。
有很多人会有这样的疑问,为何电影要叫《despicable me》卑鄙的我?看一下这部电影的制片人谈及这部电影制作时是怎么说的?
制片人John Cohen:For a while, we’ve wanted to make a movie about a villain
told from the villain’s perspective.
另一位制片人Christopher:The idea of making an animated film in which the villain
is your protagonist is unusual and very challenging. ..You would not have a
sense of appreciation for the journey he's gone on as a character had we not
started him at that point.
大意:之前大部分的动画电影(animated
film)都是将好人(heroes)作为主角(protagonist),而将坏人(villains)作为主角并且以坏人的看法(perspective)确实不多见,而这正是这部电影能够出奇制胜,打动观众的重要因素;
其实我们每个人都有可能是Gru,在遭受打击与挫折后生发出despicable的念头——这不是一个坏蛋受到感化重新做人的,而是一个普通人克服挫折弱点挖掘善念的关于me的故事。
