Anne在Bright River車站等待Mathew Cuthbert
很難形容這部精緻影集帶給觀眾心中那種雋永的感動
看過之後永遠忘不掉 那個紅髮 聒噪 太有想像力的女孩
所散發的生命力與樂觀
與生命故事的悲喜所帶給人們的觸動
「I'll try and do anything and be anything you want,
if you'll only keep me, Miss Cuthbert.」~ Anne Shirley
這個故事的輪廓或許大家都曾經聽過
Cuthberts'是一對未婚的兄妹
想要找個小男孩來幫忙打理農場
沒想到孤兒院的疏忽找來了Anne
Anne and Mathew在 "白色的喜悅小徑"
決定收養Anne及綠頭髮事件
Anne Shirley是個無父無母的小孤女
從小在孤兒院長大 在幾個收養的家庭間流浪
誤打誤撞來到這兒
認識了氣味相投(Kindred Spirit)的Diana Berry
還有第一天上學就碰觸她禁忌紅髮的Gilbert Blythe
小時候看會因為她的身世及處處碰壁感到同情與難過
長大後再看會忍不住為她的多嘴與天馬行空的想像力而啞然失笑
雖然心情有點改變
但不變的是因為她的純真與執著怦然的感動。
Anne and Diana初次見面贏得兩人三腳比賽
Megan Follows演活了這個獨一無二的Anne Shirley
相信看過的人都很難否認這點
她絕對不算是典型的美女
但那樣渴望的眼神 彷彿與生俱來的多話XD
對自己所堅持的事一股腦兒的往前(especially her red hair:p)
和Schuyler Grant(Diana)以及Jonathan Crombie(Gilbert)奇妙的默契
Mathew心臟病發
Anne自Kingsport返回Green Gables
更令人感動的莫過於她跟Mathew以及Marilla建立的親情
兩個老演員演活了個性迥異的兩兄妹
Mathew不擅言語 是個碰到女孩子就講不出話的老先生
負責去車站接人的他 看到這個"女孩" 一路聽著她的描述
或許是互補吧 也應該是Anne第一個碰到的 不會嫌她多話的人XD
Marilla是個嚴峻 一板一眼的老小姐
看這描述似乎是個有古怪脾氣的怪婆婆
但她只是不習慣將她的情緒表露於外罷了
她與Anne初次見面的對話很難不讓人好氣又好笑:
MARILLA: Well, what's your name?
ANNE: Would you please call me Cordelia?
MARILLA: Call you Cordelia? (Marilla挑眉貌)
ANNE: Don't you think it's a pretty name?
MARILLA: Is that your name?
ANNE: Well, no, it's not exactly my name, though I would love to be called Cordelia.
MARILLA: I don't understand what you mean.
ANNE: Cordelia is a perfectly elegant name.
MARILLA: What is your name child, and no more nonsense?(Marilla不耐煩)
ANNE: Anne Shirley. Plain, old, unromantic Anne Shirley.(Anne滿臉悲傷)
MARILLA: Anne Shirley is a fine and sensible name, and hardly one to be ashamed of.
ANNE: Oh, I'm not ashamed, but if you are going to call me Anne, would you please be sure to spell it with an "e".
MARILLA: What difference does it make how it is spelled?
ANNE: It makes a lot of difference. Print out "A-n-n" and it looks absolutely dreadful, but Anne with an "e" is quite distinguished. So if you'll only call me Anne with an "e", I'll try and reconcile myself to not being called Cordelia.
MARILLA: Very well then, Anne, with an "e", how is it that you happened to be brought and not a boy?
Anne wihe an "e"是她特有的堅持
只有這樣才能讓她與眾不同~
即使在被Mr.Philips處罰之後 第一個反應還是要加上那個特有的"e"
在現在這種混雜的社會中很難想像收養一個來歷不明的小孤女
可以變成像Anne一樣的瑰寶
彷彿只有在Prince Edward Island這樣美麗的地方才有可能發生的故事
Marilla未曾生育
但對Anne的教育卻未見生澀
特有的氛圍下塑造了Anne這樣一個獨特的女孩
很快的使得Gilbert傾心
(待續)
