話說Vincent Regan的訪談真是少得可憐,網路如此浩瀚竟然找不到幾篇文章orz
另外我的破英文翻譯大家就加減看看吧,原文如下:
The 5-Minute Interview: Vincent Regan, Actor
Vincent Regan, 41, stars in '300', a film adaptation of a graphic novel by Frank Miller. It has broken box office records in the US and is released in the UK today
If I weren't talking to you now I'd be...
In a furniture and antique shop with my wife, holding my baby girl, Esme. We're moving into a new house at the end of the month and we're looking for furniture. Esme's opinion is being taken into consideration - when she points with both hands that means, "buy it!"
A phrase I use far too often is...
"Do you know what I mean?" And "I understand you". It's as if the other person is talking another language. Of course they know what I mean - of course I understand them!
I wish people would take more notice of...
The fact that for most people most of the time life is worthwhile... but we too often focus on what's bad.
The most surprising thing that happened to me was...
The miracle of having a child. You spend nine months preparing yourself for your wife having a baby. But when you're confronted by a mewling purple thing - it's just amazing.
A common misperception of me is...
That I'm a tough guy. I'm not - I'm really a complete softie.
I am not a politician but...
I wouldn't allow Trident replacement to go ahead.
I'm good at...
Changing nappies. And I'm getting better at exercise since I gave up smoking four years ago.
I'm very bad at...
Paperwork, and sitting down to do serious writing. I procrastinate.
The ideal night out is...
A movie and then a curry with friends.
In moments of weakness I...
Blame someone else.
You know me as an actor but in another life I'd have been...
A writer. Or a farmer. Or maybe a scaffolder! My family were all in the building trade, so I probably would have ended up doing something like that.
The best age to be is...
41. When I turn 42 then 42 will be the best age.
In a nutshell, my philosophy is this:
Carpe diem [seize the day].
這篇訪談日期是2007年3月,因為300在英國上映而做的。
這邊就想碎碎唸一下了。
雖然300讓Vincent Regan聲名大噪(咦?有嗎?),但是也造成一個後果就是拿他的名字去google,只會跳出一大堆300相關網頁,找沒有真正想要的資訊,只能說有一好沒兩好?
不過另外有一個好處就是我不用費心去翻譯啦(被打)
閒話休提,現在進入本文。
