It seems no coincidence that Plummer often plays charismatic, quick-witted, larger-than-life (and devilishly handsome) characters:
普盧默經常扮演風度翩翩、聰明絕倫、有傳奇色彩（且儀表堂堂）的角色，這似乎不是巧合：
This is simply the energy he radiates.
這只是他散發出的能量。
When he comes out of his house to greet me, he looks unfailingly dapper in gray slacks and a plaid blazer.
當他從屋子里走出來迎接我的時候，穿著灰色休閑褲和格子西裝外套，衣冠楚楚。
The actor has lived here with his third wife, the British actress Elaine Taylor, since the early 1980s.
自20世紀80年代以來，普盧默和他第三任妻子英籍演員伊萊恩·泰勒居于此處。
(He has a daughter, the actress Amanda Plummer, from his first marriage to the late Tammy Grimes.)
（他有一個女兒，女演員阿曼達·普盧默，從第一次婚姻到已故的塔米·格蘭姆斯。）
In his 2008 memoir, he says he moved to Connecticut when Hollywood became too lush, too tiresome:
在2008年的回憶錄中，他說在感到好萊塢太奢侈太無聊時，搬到了康涅狄格州：
"Everything in life there seems to use the same plastic surgeon."
“生活中的一切都似乎用了同一個外科整形醫生。”
Plummer's character in Boundaries is based on writer-director Shana Feste's own father, a drug-dealing cardsharp.
普盧默在電影《邊界》中扮演的角色是基于編輯兼導演莎娜·費斯特自己的父親，一個打牌常作弊的毒販。
"He had a real taste for breaking the law," Feste says.
“他很喜歡違法，” 費斯特說道。
"My college was paid for in envelopes of cash."
“我的大學學費是用裝在信封里的現金支付的。”
When a casting director suggested Plummer for the part, she thought, No way:
當一位選角導演建議普盧默出演這個角色時，她想，不可能。
"Christopher is a master of Shakespeare and so refined, and my father was, you know, in and out of prison and covered in tattoos and smoked weed all my life."
“克里斯托弗是大師莎士比亞，而的父親，你知道的，在監獄里進出，全身都是紋身，吸大麻。”
But Plummer was intrigued by the screenplay—
但普盧默對劇本很感興趣——
"I thought, I’d love to play this dreadful old man who never can find a bed to lie down on"—
“我想，我很想扮演這個永遠找不到床躺的可怕老人”——
and brings an irresistibly naughty elegance to the part.
給這個角色帶來了無法抗拒的頑皮的優雅，
"Some of the most talented actors in the world you can look away from on screen," says Feste,
“某些世界上最有才華的演員，你也可以把視線從屏幕上移開，”
"and you can’t look away from Christopher—even when he's doing absolutely nothing."
費斯特說，“但你不能把目光從克里斯托弗身上移開——即使他什么都沒做。”
Plummer found inspiration in his own debauched past,
普盧默從自己放蕩的過去中找到了靈感，
back when he was a 1950s Broadway actor with a taste for booze and women.
20世紀50年代，他還是百老匯演員的時候，喜歡酒和女人。
"There used to be a rule," he tells me,
“曾經有一條規則，”他告訴我，
"that you weren’t a man till you could go through a matinee of Hamlet pissed and hungover. Which we did!"
“只有看了《哈姆雷特》的日場，心里又氣又難受，才是一個真正的男人。而我們就做到了如此！”
At the time, the Toronto-born actor was a master of the classics—
當時，這位出生于多倫多的演員是一位經典名著大師——
Henry V, Hamlet, Cyrano de Bergerac, Macbeth—
亨利五世、哈姆雷特、波爾格拉克、麥克白——
and his bar buddy was Jason Robards.
他的酒吧伙伴就是杰森·羅巴茲。
"I understand you were a bit of a drinker," I say in polite understatement.
“我知道你有點酒量，”我委婉地說。
"Everybody was in the early'50s," Plummer retorts.
“每個人都曾經歷過50年代早期，” 普盧默反駁道。
"Don't shake your gory locks at me!
“別沖我搖你那血淋淋的頭發！
That whole group—God, they were never without a vodka. It was great fun."
那群人——天啊，他們從來沒有不喝伏特加的。非常有趣。”
