金·凱利
Jim Carrey has become one of the most recognized faces in the world — and it is precisely because of his face that he has achieved such fame. His rubbery look, and penchant for wild and extreme behavior has given him a notoriety he delights in.
金·凱利已成為當(dāng)今世界上最熟悉的面孔之一,確切地說(shuō),是由于他的面孔,才使他聞名遐邇。他那似橡膠般的眼神,以及對(duì)狂野和極至行為的酷愛(ài),令他名聲遠(yuǎn)揚(yáng),樂(lè)此不疲。
Bom in New Market, Ontario, Canada on January 17th, 1962 to a working class family, growing up poor was tough for young Jim Carrey. While in his teens, he had to take a job as a janitor when his father lost his job and he had to juggle both school and work. School eventually lost out and he dropped out. He describes himself as being very angry at this time in his life, yet one good thing came out of it. He developed a tremendous sense of humour to help him cope and to shield his anger from the world.
金·凱利1962年1月17日生于加拿大安大略省紐馬克特的一個(gè)工人階級(jí)家庭,在貧困中成長(zhǎng)。十幾歲時(shí),父親失去了工作,他不得不找了份看門(mén)的差事,奔波于學(xué)校和工地之間??勺罱K還是沒(méi)騙過(guò)校方,他輟了學(xué)。他描述自己一生的這一刻異常氣惱,然而柳暗花明。他形成了豐富的幽默感,這幫助他掩飾憤怒,泰然處世。
He was a loner who claims he didn’t have any friends because he didn’t want any. Between school and work there just wasn’t much time for a childhood. At 15 though, he had enough time to start performing at Yuk Yuks, a famous Toronto comedy club where he began to perfect his shtick. He moved to LA and did the club circuit there. He soon came to the attention of Rodney and was put on his tour.
凱利獨(dú)來(lái)獨(dú)往,他宣稱自己沒(méi)有朋友因?yàn)樗恍枰笥?。往返于學(xué)校與工地的那段童年時(shí)光并不算長(zhǎng)。 十五歲時(shí),他開(kāi)始有充裕的時(shí)間在多倫多一家著名的喜劇俱樂(lè)部“亞克亞克斯”進(jìn)行表演,在那兒他得以完善自己的特殊才能。后來(lái)前往洛杉磯并在那兒開(kāi)始了倶樂(lè)部巡回演出。不久他引起了羅德尼的注意并從此走上了藝術(shù)之旅。
Jim Carrey got his big break in 1990, when he landed a role on the hip new sketch comedy show In Living Color which boasted a cast of African-Americans and Carrey, the sole white guy. While there, Carrey perfected many characters, most notoriously “Fire Marshal Bill” who always went up in a blaze. The sketch was yanked when critics claimed that it encouraged kids to play with fire. The controversy put Carrey’s name in the headlines for the first time.
1990年金·凱利開(kāi)始走紅,當(dāng)時(shí)他撈到了一個(gè)在嬉皮士新短喜劇中扮演角色的機(jī)會(huì)。這幕名為《跳動(dòng)的色彩》的劇目的演員包括一組黑人和凱利,惟一的白人小伙子。劇中,凱利完美地扮演了許多角色,最令人津津樂(lè)道的就是“帶火的元帥比爾”,他總是身上冒火。該劇受到了猛烈的抨擊,批評(píng)家宣稱這會(huì)促使孩子縱火。而爭(zhēng)論使得凱利的大名首次登在頭版頭條。
He broke into feature films, and into the collective unconscious of the world, in one single successful year, 1994. It was the Year of the Funny Face. First there was Ace Ventura: Pet Detective,a surprise hit that show Carrey's now signature wacky style. Next came The Mask, a role that seemed tailor-made for him and was a hit with audiences. As if he hadn’t made an impression yet, there was still Dumb and Dumber which was released during the holiday season and ended up on top of the box office. Jim Carrey was in the limelight now and he hasn't looked back since.
1994年,在他成功的一年中,他開(kāi)始出演電影正片,并不知不覺(jué)成了圈內(nèi)人士。1994年是滑稽面孔先生年。先有艾絲·溫圖拉的《寵物偵探》,一部展示凱利特有的古怪風(fēng)格的叫座影片。接下來(lái)是《面具》,這像是一個(gè)專為他定做的角色,觀眾反響強(qiáng)烈。然而他仿佛覺(jué)得人們對(duì)他的印象還不夠深,假期推出的《裝聾作啞》在放映結(jié)束時(shí)雄居票房首位。金·凱利如今成了焦點(diǎn)人物,此后便一發(fā)不可收。
