【有声书】Vanished Years(Rupert Everett自传)- (朗读:Rupert Everett)
如果你知道英国有这么一位叫Rupert Everett的演员,也看过他从早期的《同窗之爱》到后来的《我最好朋友的婚礼》《理想丈夫》《不可儿戏》等作品中的表演,那么,应该会对这部书有一点兴趣吧。Rupert Everett是一位无论形象还是演技以及才华都很不错的演员,只是由于出柜得太早,事业也因此受创,一直没有大红,说来有点伤感,那个年代的英国毕竟还没有那么包容。不过,RE叔现在很厉害,写作、戏剧样样行,应该是一直很努力地工作着吧!
Vanished Years是Rupert Everett的第二本自传,一个月前在BBC4台播出了他自己朗读的版本,之前也有好几位喜欢他的朋友跟我提到过这部书,RE的写作风格非常有趣,他的第一部自传Red Carpets and Other Banana Skins出版后也广受好评,Vanished Years则主要记录了他在美国的演艺生活。
Book of the Week - Vanished Years
Written and read by Rupert Everett
时长:70分钟
As a writer, the actor Rupert Everett has been compared to David Niven, Noel Coward and Lord Byron: wickedly observant, very British and extremely funny. And his new memoir Vanished Years gives full rein to those powers as Everett writes about the travails of a precarious career - fighting for good roles, effortlessly glamorous at parties.
Everett found fame in Britain with Another Country and Dance with a Stranger, and acclaim in Hollywood with My Best Friend's Wedding. But we meet him in the twilight world of a film finished but not released - and he's not confident it will restore his fortunes. However, at one of the many glamorous parties he attends, Everett has a flash of inspiration: to write Mr Ambassador - an American TV sitcom starring, of course, Rupert Everett in the title role.
And so begins an adventure in Hollywood, diving into the cut throat world of the networks and the pilot episode, where dreams and fortunes can be made or broken.
