The Magnificent Ambersons

If events had turned out differently, The Magnificent Ambersons, Orson Welles’ second film, might well be widely regarded as “the greatest film of all time” rather than Citizen Kane. But in Welles’ absence, RKO Studios recut the original version of the film mercilessly—Welles said it looked like it had been “edited with a lawn mower”—reducing its running time from 131 to the present 88 minutes. Nevertheless, what survives is still one of the most strikingly beautiful and technically innovative films ever to come out of Hollywood. It also tells a good story—about the decline of a once powerful and wealthy turn-of-the-century Midwestern family—with a conviction and maturity that are rare for the old Hollywood system.
《安倍逊大族》电影剧本
文/〔美国〕奥逊·威尔斯
译/闻谷
叙事人:安倍逊家族于1873年开始发迹。他们所在的中部地区小镇日渐扩大,发展成房舍林立的城市,在这些年里,他们始终声名显赫,目击了这一切……
在那些日子里,城里凡是穿绸着缎的女人都互相认识……
……凡是有得起车马的人家也都互相摸底。
那时唯一的公共交通工具是街车。……一位夫人在楼窗里对它打个惚哨,它就马上停住,等她关上窗户,穿戴齐整,姗姗下楼,找到阳伞,对女仆吩咐好下一顿的菜单后出门登车。
如今这对我们来说是太慢了
