有这样一群人
There were a great majority of the guys who were...
被称为优秀的战士
...what you'd just call good soldiers.
你可以依靠他们 他们总是在那里
You could depend on them. They were always there.
这些人来自农场 他们不是伞兵
These kids were from farms. They weren't paratrooping guys.
他们想成为最棒的 把所有的事尽可能的做到最好
They wanted to be the best,to look and do their job the best.
他们从没这么干过 你被从1000英尺的高空扔下去
It hadn't been done before. You're dropped at 1000 feet...
如果出了一点问题，你就会死
...which means if anything goes wrong,you die.
一旦你明白了这是一件有多危险的事
Once you've assessed the situation and how dangerous it is...
然后你仍然会去做，那就需要真正的勇气
...and then you go and do something,that's true courage.
战友就是他们的一切
These guys were everything to each other.
换句话说,就是他们的家人
In a way,they were more than family.
这是一个讲述勇气和友情的故事
It is a story of courage and comradeship...
还有耐力和牺牲.
...endurance and sacrifice.
执行制作人,汤姆 汉克斯,史蒂芬 斯皮尔伯格和HBO
Executive producers,Tom Hanks,Steven Spielberg and HBO...

然后又去了比利时 一路上有很多故事
...and were in the Battle of the Belgium. Very well-chronicled all the way.
长达三年的拍摄和制作成本超过1.2亿美元
The massive production spanned three years and cost over $120 million.
主拍摄场设在英格兰哈特菲尔德的一块1100英亩的地区
Primarily shooting on an 1100-acre back lot in Hatfield,England.
一个12英亩的村子被频繁的改建
A 12-acre village set was continually modified...
以拍摄11个不同的欧洲城市.
... to portray 11 different European locations.
这是相当于我们在《拯救大兵瑞恩》5倍大小的场地
It's five times bigger than what we had on Saving Private Ryan.
我们在英格兰的奥尔德本和厄波特里
We're in Aldbourne and Upottery in England
还有法国,诺曼底,荷兰
France,Normandy,Holland.
我们在巴斯通,我们都去过
We're in Bastogne. We're all over the place.
服装部门提供了2000套德国和美国的制服
The costume department provided 2000 German and American uniforms...
包括500双考克兰跳伞靴
...including 500 pairs of Corcoran jump boots.
还有1200件被认为是最真实的平民服装
Twelve hundred civilian costumes were authentic vintage clothing.
在我们的计划中
On our project...
每个部门你都能找到最好的人
...every department has the best people you can find.
为了重现过去,我们需要一流的设备
It's a first-rate production facility for re-creating the past...
还有次世代的特效
...as well as the next generation of special effects...
以及电脑生成的动画
...and computer-generated effects.
从某种方面来说,电脑正在威胁真人演员,但的确十分有趣
In some ways,it's intimidating,but it's also incredibly fun.
剧中共有1万人参与拍摄
More than 10,000 extras worked on the miniseries
其中500人都是有台词的角色
which featured 500 speaking roles.
每个人在一旦他们走过了门,就有了角色。
I can tell you that everybody in this had the role
as soon as they walked through the door.
我们专门开了演员确定会议,我们当时说:"他们就是E连"
We had this fabulous session where we said:"They are Easy Company"
"让我们看看他们如何处理角色间的关系."
"Let's see how they relate to each other in different roles."
斯蒂芬操作摄影机,汤姆好像更喜欢指导动作
Steven operated the camera,and Tom kind of like staged the action...
我们会混合和搭配不同的角色
...and we would mix and match different roles.
斯蒂芬坐在摄影机后面拍摄，他问另一个人
Steven was down with his video camera,filming.
He asked,I mean the other guy
"当你说到那一句的时候,你能不能向这边移动一点?"
He said "When you say that line,can you just move this way a little bit?"
我们说:"好的,没问题." 我们照做了,然后开始拍
We said:"Yeah,sure." and we got done,and the scene started.
当拍摄结束,我们都要离开的时候
Before you knew it was over,we were being shuffled out.
那个人对我说:
And the guy said to me:
"我刚才是不是斯蒂芬 斯皮尔伯格指导了我?"
"Did I just get directed by Steven Spielberg?"
我说,"是的."
I says,"Yeah,I think you did."
资深的军事顾问，陆军上尉Dale Dye,在片中担任观察员
Senior military advisor,Capt. Dale Dye,served as a watchdog...
为了更加真实,他为演员们组织了一个为其10天的训练营
...for military accuracy and trained the cast in a 10-day,actor boot camp.
我的目的是,当他们在拍摄的时候
The idea was that,when they portrayed something,
导演说:"你精疲力尽了."
when the director said,"You're exhausted"...
或者是"你收到惊吓了." 他们应该有一些感觉
...or "You're frightened," they would have something.
他们应该理解精疲力尽和受到惊吓对一个军人是什么样子
Some sort of understanding of what exhaustion and fear mean to a soldier.
我想让他们知道.
I wanted them to know that.
所以没有其他办法,只有让他们放到那种环境里
There's no way to do it but to put them in that position.
你和许多不认识的人一起住在一个兵营里
You're in barracks with the guys you've never met.
里面都是臭脚的味道
The barracks smell like feet.
我记得有一天有人说,我绝不会忘记这里
I remember going,"I'm never gonna make this.
绝不会忘记这10天."
I'm never gonna make these 10 days."
训练营每天训练18小时
Boot camp's exhaustive 18-hour days...
包括体能和军事技巧训练
... were fiilled with physical training and military drills.
-别开枪! -那里! 在房子后面!
-Hold your fire! -There! Behind the house!
集中火力一起开火,不要浪费子弹
I want concentrated bursts of fire. Don't waste ammo!
-跑,快跑 -让他们也绕到这边
-Go,runner,go. -Get them round the side as well.
有人在左翼
We have somebody in here on the left-hand side.
看看那是谁,他穿着黑色外衣
See who he is. He's in a black coat.
-抓到他了? -李普顿,跟我来.
-Got him? -Lipton,come with me.
士兵,给他武器.
Private,get a weapon on this guy.
Dye上尉让人肃然起敬
Capt. Dye can tear you down...
它让你知道你需要做什么
...make you realize what you need to do...
一句话就能让你马上回过头来
...and then bring you right back up within a sentence.
"闭嘴." 然后你只能继续找他的话做,然后他继续说:
"Now just shut up." Then you'd go do your thing and he goes:
"鲁兹中士,给他们臂章"
"Sgt. Luz. Earn them stripes."
1940年风格的跳伞练习
1940s-style jump training...
包括从一个40英尺高的飞机模型上跳下
...included jumping from a 40-foot-high plane fuselage mockup.
我们爬上了塔,一些年轻的女人走向我
So we climb up this tower. Some little woman walks up to me...
用两个小钩子绕住了我的腰
...and puts two little hooks around my waist.
他说,"好了,你安全了."
She's like,"Okay,you're safetied in."
"你什么意思? 我不安全."
"What do you mean? I'm not safetied in."
他说,"跳吧!" "我不安全--!"
She's like,"Go!" "I'm not safetied--!"
我跳了下去,"1,1,000,2 -- BAM!" 这算什么?
I jump off,"1,1,000,2 -- BAM!" What the hell is that?
我最糟糕的一晚是我露宿睡在睡袋里的时候
The worst night was sleeping outside in sleeping bags.
我们面对着敌人,在里面睡甚至比外面还冷
We got enimies and it was colder inside than being outside.
我看见有的人脱下他们的袜子给别人取暖
I saw guys taking off their socks to give other prople to stay warm.
而你不得不把你的外衣给其他的人
You'd give your jacket to someone else.
在训练营中你会遇到一堵难以逾越的墙
You hit walls in boot camp.
这是一堵针对个人身体和精神上的墙,你必须跨越过去
These personal,mental,physical walls you have to go over.
有些人第一天的晚上是哭着睡着的
Some guys,the first night,cried themselves to sleep.
这不是听说,而是就在我身边
We were there for each other.
我与这些人一起经历了训练营,一起走出来
I came out of the boot-camp experience doing anything for these guys.
我们成为了真正的士兵
We became soldiers.
当我进入训练营,我想我已经准备好了
When I went into boot camp,I thought I was ready for it.
当我离开的时候,我感觉变成了另外一个人
When I left,I felt like a different person.
你感觉像是完成了一个壮举,没人能带走这一切
You felt like you did some that no one could take away from me.
同样,没人能让人忘记E连的事迹
The same way that no one could take away what Easy Company has done.
在二战中伞兵是实验性质的部队，他们都是精英
To be a paratrooper in WWII,it was experimental and elite.
这可以说是第一次
It was the first time it's being done.
他们的工作是被从分机上跳下去,是独一无二的
Their job was unique in that they were dropped out of planes.
他们本质上需要成为"一个人的军队"
They had to be,in essence,one-man armies.
他们需要带上所有的东西
They had to bring everything with them.
想象一下你被空投到敌人的领土中间
Just to thought of being dropped in the middle of enemy territory...
你被四面包围
...surrounded on all four sides...
你孤立无援,只有你自己
...knowing that there's gonna be no help,it's just you.
他们必须下定决心,决不能中途退出
There's a grit and a resolve they had to just never quit.
他们必须在训练营战胜自我,不能放弃
They had to beat into them at boot camp,and they wouldn't quit then.
他们必须为将要面对的一切做好准备
They prepared them for what they faced.
即使是在最恶劣的条件也是
They didn't quit under the most dire conditions...
那应该是真正士兵可能会面对的恶劣环境
...that,really,any soldiers probably could've faced.
有一个场景是我们在一个十字路口奇袭德军
There was a scene at a crossroad,where we surprise Germans.
大概有100个德国士兵在逃跑
And it's just about a hundred Germans running away.
然后他们开始转头向我们射击
And then they start turning and firing at us
We're popping off clips,having to reload.It's a long shot
我们要不停地射击,再装弹,那是一场很长的枪战
德军的另一个排从山上攻了下来
Another German platoon storms down this hill and start attacking.
突然,河床开始爆炸
All of a sudden,this riverbed just explodes.
好多人倒下了,大地在颤动
All the way down. The ground's shaking.
我记得那时候我在装弹
I remember when I was reloading...
那时你会觉得你很脆弱,因为你无法用武器保护自己
That's when you're most vulnerable,
because you can't defend yourself with your weapon.
我遇到了问题,因为我的手在抖
And I was having trouble because my hands were shaking.
我在想:"我要爆了我正在看的这个家伙的头"
I was thinking,"I'm gonna get shot in the head when I'm now looking."
然后你脱离了战斗,"这就是当时的情况"
Then you come out of it,and you go,"That's what it's like."
当你与一个人一同经历了几年的战争
When you go through years of war with guys next to you...
你会很依赖这个人. 他们的一个小错误
...you're dependent on this person. Their small mistake...
或者他们的一个冒险举动会救了你的命,或毁了你的生活
...or their one heroic event can save or destroy your life.
你必需团结他人,如果你们不是一个小组
You have to bond. If you're not one unit...
那么你可能不会活下来
...you're not gonna necessarily survive,you know.
最受期待的情节在开拍第一周进行了拍摄
One of the production most ambitious re-creations
...occurred in the first week of shooting.
我认为从影片的立场来说
I think from a physical production standpoint...
最有挑战性的就是D日的拍摄
...the most challenging scene was taking off for D-Day.
我们用了几百名群众演员,每人都要带上全部装备
We have hundreds of extras,each of them had to be accurately equipped...
包括制服,伞包等等
...and uniformed and webbed and geared up.
作为一个伞兵,你必须带上赖以生存的一切东西
As a paratrooper,everything you survive on,you must carry.
你带上所有的装备
The amount of equipment they're carrying....
总重足有100磅
Getting on those planes with 100 pounds of excess equipment.
上飞机的时候都需要被推上去才行
They had to be shoved onto these planes.
这是一个协同作战的伟大壮举
It was a tremendous feat of coordination.
实际上那时候我们只有4架C-47可以用
We had four C-47 aircraft from the period that actually could work.
我们在不同角度有7架摄影机拍摄飞机起飞
We had seven cameras shooting planes take off,all in different positions.
每个摄影机都有自己的任务
Cameras had assignments.
当飞机从你这里飞过去的时候,你得跟着他跑
When the plane passes you,you run here...
这样你就能拍到飞机起飞了
...so you can get the takeoff. Then get this aerial shot.
然后飞机飞回来,你就能拍到飞机飞过的镜头了
Then the planes will return so you can get a flyby.
每个人都有多个任务
Everybody had multiple assignments.
看着这些老飞机在你周围咆哮很令人兴奋
It was pretty thrilling to watch those old planes roaring around.
你知道有些人可能无法在回来了.
You knew that some of you wouldn't be coming back and some would.
我只能猜想当时那些人是什么感觉
I can only guess how those guys must have felt.
找到要点,你就能明白
To get to the point that you can understand:
"好吧,这是例行公事,我从飞机上跳下去"
"Okay,this is the routine. I jump out of a moving plane...
然后我会降到地面,希望降落伞能打开
...and I fall to the earth,and hopefully a chute opens.
而简单的那部分就是拿起武器,杀死敌人
And then the easy part is to grab my weapon and go kill people."
这是一个完全不同的世界.
It's a totally different world.
他们当时飞的很混乱
They flew pretty much into mayhem.
至少有1000人在落地之前就牺牲了
They lost 1000 paratroopers before they hit the ground.
有的飞机带着伞兵就被击落了
Planes shot down or being shot,just in their parachutes.
有的人在500英尺高的地方就跳伞了,500英尺太近了
Guys were dropping at 500 feet. The ground is very close at 500 feet.
驾驶员没经过训练,不知道该怎么做
The pilots didn't know what to expect or weren't trained...
在那样的枪林弹雨中飞的是太慢还是太快
...for that amount of fire and flew too low,flew too fast.
有的飞的太高了,飞机被击中解体
Some of them flew too high and got scattered all just to hell and gone.
A开始.
A-camera.
特效部门建立了一个模型
The special-effects department constructed a gimble.
那是一个很大的液压操控的装置,放在飞机下面
It's a very large,hydraulic-driven apparatus that sits under the plane.
他们能控制
They can control...
各种不同角度的激烈运动
...every possible axis of movement in varying degrees of intensity.
如果你真在里面的话你会感到那真是像地震一样
That thing is rocking,as if you were in a real plane.
当我们在那里的时候,我们说"给我们看看这东西怎么样"
We went onboard,and we said,"Show us how it works."
然后他轻轻的摇动了几下
And he,very gently,did the controls.
我当时很傻,开玩笑的说,"来吧,让我看看你有什么真本事"
Fool that I am,I said to him jokingly,"Come on,show me what you got."
那就像是买了最差机舱的机票
It was an E-ticket ride.
我这一集从空袭开始,载满伞兵的C-47
My episode starts with the aircraft,the C-47s,full of paratroopers.
里面的人准备好跳伞
It starts with the guys jumping.
我们打算以Winters为主视角
We decided we'd predominately keep with Winters...
他是我们这部剧的主角之一
...one of our main characters in the episode.
8秒钟. 从天上到地下,就这么长时间
Eight seconds. That's all it took. Plane to the ground.
我只花4秒钟
I'm gonna do it in about four.
我正要做这个非常危险,高技巧的特技
Very dangerous,highly-skilled stunt I'm about to do.
我们决定从第一秒直到地面一直跟随他
We decided to follow him to the ground in one go.
所以从他跳下飞机直到落地是一个镜头
So from the time he jumps to when he hits the ground is one shot.
我们把演员吊在一块蓝幕前面,下面有气流向上吹
We doing that by hanging the actor against blue
with a lot of air being blown at him...
这样我们就可以让摄影机绕着他拍摄
...so we can swivel and pivot him.
然后摄像机臂向上移
Then a camera crane is moving,representing a floating camera.
他并没有下降,然后飞机飞走
He's not falling at all. The aircraft is moving away...
所以看上去好像是他在下落,然后在进行视觉处理
...so it looks like he's falling.
It's done in an optical process afterwards.
如果你在蓝幕前拍摄某人,电脑可以移开蓝幕
If you shoot someone against blue,the computer can remove the blue...
然后用任何背景代替,比如飞机,天空,伞兵
...and put whatever background you want: aircraft,sky,paratroopers.
我们让摄影机从下向上移,让演员看上去是在下落
We have our actor falling. The camera moves in,goes up to his face...
直到落地,整个都是一个镜头
...looks down to the ground,looks back up to him again,all in one shot.
我们走!
Let's go!
看上去像真的一样,很好,停
That looked real. Very good. Cut.
兄弟连的视觉处理在伦敦的一个电影制作中心完成
The look and feel of Band of Brothers was enhanced at Cinesite,London...
使用革命性的全数字设备加工
...using a revolutionary,all-digital film-finishing process.
我们使用的先进技术
The technologies we pioneered...
是真正全电脑化的
...were really about electronic color timing.
这主要包括计算机控制能力
It was about having the ability to electronically control...
不同镜头色调的匹配
...all of the aspects of hue and color and to match them shot for shot.
开机之前,汤姆和斯蒂芬给我们说明了几点
Before we started shooting there were several instructions...
包括他们想看到什么,不想看到什么
...from tom and Steven about what they want to look and what didn't
看上去应该怎么样
What look things had to be. It's desaturated.
就像你回到19世纪40年代
It's as though you were back in the 1940s...
用那里的摄影机,镜头里充满了真实
...with a 1940's camera,shooting stuff for real.
这是我们自始至终进行加工的主题
With postproduction and digital effects
we keep a consistent theme throughout.
制作中还制作出了700段视觉特效
Cinesite also provided many of the 700 visual-effects shots...
重现了E连的经历
... that re-create Easy Company's experiences.
我们将被空投到荷兰的沦陷区
We're dropping into occupied Holland.
我们的任务是解放埃因霍温
Our job is to liberate Eindhoven.
我们要做的是重现成千上万人跳伞的画面
What we're doing is re-creating the drop of thousands of troops.
这是跳伞的第一个镜头
This is the first shot of the parachute sequence.
我们现在看到的是低分辨率模型
We're looking at low-resolution models so we can very quickly and easily...
这样我们就能更快的设置视角、速度、运动和时间
...lay out the look of the shots,speeds,animation and timing.
这是一个独立的伞兵
This is an individual soldier with a parachute.
当他下落时可以设置一些动画，就像真的一样
There's animation on the soldier as he comes down,just to give life to it.
然后从这里，我们就能渲染高分辨率模型了
Then from this,we can render high resolution models.
在这里，我拿到Mike的CG
In this case,we're taking Mike's CG,and I then layer those CG elements...
然后把真实的背景加进去，像这样
...over the live-action background which,in this case,is this shot.
我们要做的是把原来的前景和背景分开
What we needed to do is separate the background from the foreground.
所以我们要建立一个暗区，像这样
So we create a matte,which would look like this.
在黑区的所有东西都可以看到
And anything in the black area will allow the parachutes to be visible.
当他们碰到白区，他们就会消失
When they hit this white area,they'll disappear from view.
给你的感觉就像是他们降落在前面这个人的后面
You give the impression of them falling behind the foreground elements.
这些细节要处理到你相信他真实发生过一样
All those details need to be achieved
so you believe it really is happening.
重现E连的战斗
Re-creating Easy Company's battles...
有时一天需要14000发子弹
Sometimes required up to 14,000 rounds of ammunition a day...
片中使用了700件二战中真实的武器和400件橡胶模型
...utilizing about 700 authentic WWII weapons and 400 rubber prop guns.
这里右边的这些
Over here on the right...
是M1作战步枪
...we have the M-1 Grand rifles.
对面是德国的，K98作战步枪
On the opposite side,we have the Germans with the K-98 rifles.
这是伞兵版的M1卡宾枪
This is a paratrooper version of the M-1 carbine.
它有可折叠的枪托，更有利于伞兵携带
That means it has a folding stock,which makes it easier to jump with.
这是我们其中的一把MG42
This is one of our MG42s.
开始!
Roll,please!
那是一发88毫米高爆炮弹
That's an 88 flat-ground high explosive.
这就是德军在D日登陆时
This is what would've been fired from the planes...
攻击盟军飞机时用的
...when they went in on D-Day.
这是我们将要使用的橡胶模型手枪
This is one of the rubber pistols that we'll be using.
只要有可能，我们就会使用橡胶模型
Wherever possible,we'll use a rubber gun.
当它在枪套里，看起来就像真的一样
When it's in its holster,it should look like the real thing.
这是一个5O机枪模型
This is one of our rubber 5-0s...
我们刚刚完成喷漆
...that we've just finished painting up.
在这里喷上漆就能让它看上去有金属的感觉
We highlighted the rubber here to make it look a bit like metal.
很吃惊吧
Isn't that amazing? Isn't that amazing?
我确信它全是金属制的
I thought for sure that thing was made of total metal.
这是一辆参与过《拯救大兵瑞恩》拍摄的坦克
This is one of the tank from The Private Ryan
是一辆虎式坦克
This is a Tiger tank.
事实上我们是在一辆T34的底盘上做成的
We actually built this on a chassis of a T-34.
我们把轮子用盖子盖上
We've actually put wheel spats and hubcaps and things on...
让它看上去更真实，更像一辆虎式
...to make it look more authentic,like a Tiger tank.
所有的护板都加上了zimmerit涂层
All this sheeting is covered in this zimmerit finish...
当时德国人把这种东西涂在坦克上
...which the Germans use like a paste...
用来抵御磁性地雷
...which actually stops magnetic mines from being put on the side.
如果塔楼里的机枪向它射击
The turret works,and we will be having the gun firing...
由于这种装甲，子弹会弹开
...with the special effects,with the full ricochet.
这是一辆英国陆军运兵车
These are some British army armored personnel carriers...
它应该有更小的轮子,以便于改装
...which have the smaller wheels,which work very good...
成为Panzerkampfwagen 3号坦克
...for the Panzerkampfwagen lll. The big problem with these is that...
最大的问题是我们得大长度以便加上一个轮子
...we have to extend the length with one more wheel.
这里有6个轮子，而这里只有5个
We got six wheels there and only five here.
引擎放在了右前方
The engine on these comes right at the front.
显然这是错误的，所以我们要把它
Obviously,it's in the wrong position. We will be cutting it off...
从右边的这里向后移
...right through there and moving the engine further back.
我们总共造了6辆坦克，租了4辆
We are building,all together,six tanks and renting in four.
我们刚刚拍完了一场戏
The scene we've just finished shooting is a major assault...
这是德军进攻美军阿登高地战线的戏
...on the American line in the forest in the Ardennes.
这场戏是由Dale Dye上尉计划的，我们只拍了一次
The battle was planned by Capt. Dale Dye,and we only shot it once.
这是一场近距的战壕战
This'll be a close-in,hole-to-hole fight...
是E连和那些部队的战斗
...between Easy in these holes here and that infantry.
这是一件很困难的事，因为有5架摄影机同时运行
This is dificult thing because we have five cameras running
同时会有爆炸
and because we had explosions...
我们得确保特技演员、群众演员、驾驶员等等人员
...we had to make sure the stuntmen,the extras,the drivers...
让他们知道他们该在哪，他们的车该在哪
...know exactly where they are and where their vehicles should be.
开始!
Action!
他们来了!
Here they come!
这是一段很长的镜头，目前为止最长的
This is a big shot. It's one of the biggest ones so far.
在他们拍完第三集的时候
By the time they completed shooting the third episode...
特效部门就已经用了大量的烟火特效
... the special-effects department had used more pyrotechnics than...
数量超过"拯救大兵瑞恩"
...Saving Private Ryan.
我们在这里放置了一个气泵
What we've developed here is an air hit.
这里是一个触发系统
There's a system that activates this valve here
可以把放好的血和气体
that allows the blood and the air...
加压喷出去
...that's pressurized in here to come straight out.
衣服上有一个很小的洞
And it blasts through the little cloth cloak that we put on here...
血液会通过这里喷出去
...and pushes the blood out at high velocity.
最大的好处是演员可以带着这些东西到处跑
The great thing with this is,the actor can wear this,run around...
通过藏在袖子里的按钮来决定什么时候中弹
...and fire it himself from a button that we conceal up his arm.
你只要按下按钮，我要按了
You press this button,and off we go.
开始!
Action!
停!
Cut it!
这里放着一个东西，像一个锅
These things here,as you can see,are air mortars.
我们把它埋在地里
We bury these in the ground...
利用这个黄色箱子里的压缩空气
...and we use compressed air in the yellow tank there.
空气通过这个锥体
The air comes through the tank and out through this cone.
椎体里面会装上一些碎片，上面也可以站上人
The cone,we fill with debris. We can put people right on top...
让他们看上去是被炸了
...and have them look like they're blown up...
这一点也不危险
...and there's no danger at all.
可以让它看上去是88毫米炮或手雷爆炸
And it's an 88mm shell or a hand grenade...
什么都可以
...whatever we want it to be.
《兄弟连》的制片人除了史蒂芬·斯皮尔伯格
In addition to executive producing "Band of Brothers" with Steven Spielberg
还有二战迷汤姆·汉克斯，他也指导了第五集的拍摄
... World War II buff,Tom Hanks,also directs part five.
我回到家，告诉我的父母
I go home and I tell my parents:
"太棒了，汤姆·汉克斯，你知道么，他要来当导演"
"Yeah - Tom Hanks,you know,he's giving direction or whatever."
"孩子，那真是棒极了!" "今天怎么样，妈妈?"
They're like,"Son,that's great!" "How was your work today,Mom?"
"谁在乎? 汤姆·汉克斯让你少来这套，太可怕了."
"Who cares? Tom Hanks is telling you to knock it off. That's awesome."
停。很好，太好了
Cut. Sweet. Thing of beauty.
他了解所有的角色，知道我们该在意什么
He knows all the characters. He knows who we should care about...
我们想见谁
...and who we wanna see...
谁会在4集之后怎么样
...and who's got something going on four episodes later.
他确实很在意如何讲述这个故事
What he absolutely is sure of is how he wants to tell the story.
我们从向德国人开火开始
We're gonna start with just your firing on the Germans.
但是然后，你们会看见又来了100德军支援
But then on a cue,you're gonna see those 100 other guys coming.
第五集正好在10集的中间部分
Episode five lands squarely in the middle of our 10-part series.
现在我需要处理很多老兵的事
Now we're dealing with a lot of combat veterans for whom....
他们只想活着回家，他们唯一的避难所
All they want to do is survive and get home. The only haven they have...
就是连队中的朋友
...is the company itself and friendships they've made...
因为这个世界中其他的部分不会使他们高兴
...because the rest of the world really is not a pleasant place.
第六集和第七集讲述了E连的一段故事
Part six and seven re-create a time when Easy Company...
他们超过了人类的极限
... was pushed beyond human limits.
这是他们成为兄弟的时候
It is the moment that they became a band of brothers...
因为他们所经历的一切
...because what they experienced...
都无法向没有在那的人用语言讲述
...they could not relate to anybody who wasn't there.
巴斯通的环境是十分可怕的
The conditions in Bastogne were horrendous.
冬天极度的严寒
Middle of winter,freezing cold...
孤立无援，大多数人只有一双袜子，没有手套
...no long joins,just a pair of socks and no mittens.
大约200码远的地方，就有敌人向你射击
About 200 yards away,there's enemy fire coming right at you...
你只能在你的位置等待下一个月的到来
...and you have to stay your position for the next month...
尽量不让自己被杀死，尽量向前推进
...and try not to get killed and try to take more ground.
大多数人没有做到
And most of the guys didn't make it.
这些人失去了手或腿，为他们的好友而死
These guys were losing limbs,dying for their best friends.
没有食物，只能吃雪，产生了幻觉
You've got no food,you're eating snow,and you're hallucinating...
好像所有东西都开始下落，因为你被冻伤了
...and everything's falling off because of frostbite.
这与当时的情况非常接近
That doesn't come close to what it really was.
美术部门在一个大型机库里搭建了一个森林模型
The art department constructed the forest in a huge airplane hangar...
使用了几百棵树
...using hundreds of real trees and 250 trees...
其中250棵是特殊效果部门做的
...created by the special-effects department.
我们自己做出了特别的树
We created our own trees...
用像这样的玻璃纤维、麻和乳胶
...which are a mixture of fiberglass,like this one,hemp and latex...
做出了被炸碎的树木。还有一些泡沫制的
...to give a shattered-tree look. And hard-foam trees...
用纸管做核心以减轻重量
...with a cardboard tube core that keeps the weight down.
德军在炮弹中设置了定时分离
The Germans set their timers on their mortar rounds...
炮弹在树上端分开，分开的榴弹会袭击士兵
...so they exploded in the treetops. The soldiers got shrapnel...
在分离点树会被击中
...from the mortar rounds and from trees being hit.
当树被弹片击中的时候
When we've got to do a tree being hit by mortars...
像这棵树
...like this one...
我们看见树的剖面中间有个洞
...we've got the tree section,and there's a hole in the middle here.
我们把小一点的泡沫树芯放进去
We put our narrow,full-size foam section of the tree...
我们就可以炸掉它了
...onto the stump,and we can blow the whole tree.
在底下炸一下，然后整棵树倒下
Do a big hit in the bottom,and the tree falls over.
敌炮射击
Incoming!
敌炮射击
Incoming!
找散兵坑! 快! 找掩护
Find a foxhole! Come on! Take cover!
人可以站在5英尺远的地方
We can have people as close as 5 feet.
看上去好像一棵真树被击中了
Looks like the real tree has taken a major hit...
并且很安全
...and it's safe.
在设置巴斯通场景时，花了4个星期来撒人工雪
It took four weeks to dress the Bastogne sets with man-made snow.
我们主要用的是基于纤维素的雪，就像纸一样
What we use mainly is cellulose-base snow. It's like pure paper.
我们把一种聚合物和特殊的塑料混合就制成了半固态的雪
We mix that with polymers and certain plastics so we can have slush.
这种雪主要用在建筑物的周围
We're using more of that outside on the bombed-out towns.
森林场景用的雪是三种东西的混合物
The forest set is a composite of three different parts.
我们现在用了约有30多万磅的纸浆
We're actually using a third of a million pounds of paper.
这可以说是前无古人
It's the biggest amount ever used on one set for anything.
应该可以载入吉尼斯记录了
It should be in the Guinness Book of Records.
大多数的机器都很大，这是一个小型的
Most of the machines are huge things. This is a lovely device.
我看过《捉鬼敢死队》，非常喜欢里面的造型
We saw Ghostbusters and fell in love with the look.
我感觉那些造雪机不够漂亮，所以做了这个
I felt the snow wasn't glamorous enough,so we made these.
它们棒极了，只要打开开关
They're really great. You just switch them on...
就开始下雪了
...and that's snow.
你可以选择雪花的大小
You can turn the snowflakes so they're bigger or smaller.
也可以控制雪花溶解的速度
You can dissolve it faster or slower.
这个背包装了…就像一箱婴儿的沐浴露
This backpack contains... . Almost like a children's bubble-bath solution.
所有这些东西使得我们看到了逼真的雪
Everything's rigged to make this thing give realistic-looking snowflakes.
在第九集，影片讲述了一个理由
In part nine,the production re-creates the reason...
为此E连为二战付出了难以置信的牺牲
...for the incredible sacrifices Easy Company made fighting World War II.
这一集将讲述一个集中营的解放
The episode deals with liberating a concentration camp.
这对我个人有很深的意义，因为我的家人
That has a lot of personal meaning to me. I had family...
就有死于纳粹集中营的，也有逃出来的
...who died in camps and also family who escaped Nazi Germany.
我认为最有挑战的场景是
The most challenging scenes...
在蓝德斯堡的集中营
...are the scenes at Landsberg,the concentration camp.
就像命中注定一样，他们找到了
Trying to capture what it must have been like to find...
一个集中营，大多数人并不知道它的存在
...a concentration camp. Most of them didn't even know they existed.
但是看到那么多的死尸，堆在一起
But to see it in the flesh and to see so much dead flesh...
对很多士兵都是一个很大的创伤，你刚到那里的时候
...was traumatic for a lot of soldiers. The first time you come here...
那并没有人，就像一个纪念地
...and there's nobody here,it seems like a monument...
而不是一个电影拍摄场
...to people who died in camps rather than a movie set.
这一集中我倾注了很多个人情感
I have a lot of personal emotion tied up in this episode...
所以对这段经历我很满意
...so it's very satisfying to be able to bring it to life.
毫无疑问E连里的人都是英雄
The men in Easy Company were unquestionably heroes...
因为他们在灾难中表现出坚强
...because of their strength in adversity...
他们所经历的这一切
...their ability to come through...
都是他们的心中感到
...what must have been...
非常的不安
...Babylon to them.
他们做着令他们恐惧的事情
They did a job that frightened them...
这超出他们所能，几乎压垮了他们
...that was bigger than them,that was overwhelming.
他们勇敢的经历着这一切，互相照顾
And they did it courageously and took care of each other...
即使在这样特别的环境
...under extraordinary circumstances.
没有人能像他们那样，无论过去还是现在
There's nobody like them. Or ever will be like them.
精英
Elite.
真实E连中的人，绝不会把自己称作英雄
The real Easy Company guys,they will never call themselves heroes.
但现在我们要扮演他们
But now that we're getting to play them
人们把我们称作E连
and people are calling us Easy Company
我们可以为他们说，他们是英雄
we can say it for them. They are heroes.
这些人在地狱生活了几年时间
These guys lived hell for years...
为了世界的和平
...for the betterment of the world.
拍摄这样一部电影，我希望
Doing a movie like this,hopefully...
这只是一句简单的
...is a small shred...
简单的一声谢谢
...of a sliver of a thank you...
还有一些
...and a little piece of...
我们可以互相传颂的信息
...information that we can pass along to others.
不要忘记
Don't forget.
不要忘记，这很难，他们做到了所以你不用再去做
Don't forget. It was really hard,and they did it so you don't have to.
我想这会是一个令人惊奇的电视节目
It's an amazing program. I think this is really gonna be special TV.
我们明年看着电视会说“喔...”
All of us will watch this next year and be like,"Wow...
我会想这些人的，难以置信我也是其中一员
I miss those guys. I can't believe I was part of that."
我们再也不会完成这样的壮举了，太惊奇了
We'll never be part of something like this ever again. Pretty amazing.
