「读信会」Letters Live 昨晚释出之前没有曝光过的一些现场片段,其中就有#本尼迪克特·康伯巴奇# 的一小段!本尼于2015年4月4日读由着名编剧家Robert Pirosh在1934年辞掉广告文案者的工作所写的信,因为他将要前往好莱坞寻求编剧的工作,这是他写给他所知道的导演、电影公司以及製作人的一封信,名为「I Like Words」(我喜爱文字)。本尼真是把这读信舞台当做莎翁剧场来演,相当有娱乐效果,生动又夸张👏[good]整封信的内容如下
Dear Sir:
I like words. I like fat buttery words, such as ooze, turpitude, glutinous, toady. I like solemn, angular, creaky words, such as straitlaced, cantankerous, pecunious, valedictory. I like spurious, black-is-white words, such as mortician, liquidate, tonsorial, demi-monde. I like suave “V” words, such as Svengali, svelte, bravura, verve. I like crunchy, brittle, crackly words, such as splinter, grapple, jostle, crusty. I like sullen, crabbed, scowling words, such as skulk, glower, scabby, churl. I like Oh-Heavens, my-gracious, land’s-sake words, such as tricksy, tucker, genteel, horrid. I like elegant, flowery words, such as estivate, peregrinate, elysium, halcyon. I like wormy, squirmy, mealy words, such as crawl, blubber, squeal, drip. I like sniggly, chuckling words, such as cowlick, gurgle, bubble and burp.
I like the word screenwriter better than copywriter, so I decided to quit my job in a New York advertising agency and try my luck in Hollywood, but before taking the plunge I went to Europe for a year of study, contemplation and horsing around.
I have just returned and I still like words.
May I have a few with you? http://t.cn/A6q5CdjT
