伦敦西区 1953年
阿嘉莎克莉丝蒂的《捕鼠器》 Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap.
我个人认为是二流的谋杀推理剧 In my opinion, a second-rate murder mystery.
其实我还没看过 Not that I've seen it, you understand.
但它就是在猜凶手 But it's a whodunit.
看过一出就等于看了全部 You've seen one, you've seen 'em all.
你也知道那一套 You know the drill.
冗长的开场介绍所有重要人物登场 An interminable prologue in which all the key players are introduced.
你能获悉他们的处境 You get a sense of the world they inhabit,
接着最不讨人喜欢的角色就挂了 and then the most unlikable character gets bumped off.
发生命案？ There's been a murder?
此时厌世的警探出现 MAN: Cue the entrance of a world-weary detective,
进来抽丝剥茧 who comes in and pokes his nose around.
与目击者对谈 搞错几次方向 Talks to witnesses. Takes a couple of wrong turns.
电报 佩杜拉史宾瑟 大使剧院
接着召集所有嫌疑人到客厅 And then gathers all the suspects in the drawing room
指控最不可能的家伙杀人 and points the finger at the least likely chump
因为他… because of the way the guy,
怎么说呢… I don't know,
绑鞋带的方式不对 ties his shoelaces.
各位看过我们的戏 也是命案共犯 Now you've seen our play, you're an accomplice to murder.
所以我们要请你们记住 And so, we ask you to remember
这是为了你们好 that it is very much in your interests
千万别告诉剧院以外的人 是谁干的 not to tell a soul outside of this theater who done it.
我懂什么呢？ MAN: But what do I know?
英国佬 他们反应热烈 The Limeys, they just lap it up.
此剧大获成功 The play's a smash hit.
票房火热 Not to mention a cash cow.
这一位就是女老板 佩杜拉史宾瑟 Right there is the milkmaid in chief, Petula Spencer.
不克出席 已送蛋糕 阿嘉莎
这是庆祝第一百场演出的奢华宴会 This lavish affair is a party to celebrate the 100th performance.
难怪制片约翰沃夫 No wonder film producer John Woolf
想把戏改编成电影 wants to turn the play into a major motion picture.
此时他搂着有点疑神疑鬼的太太 Here he is now in the arms of his slightly paranoid wife.
我感觉附近有死亡的味道 I sense that death is close at hand.
应该只是一阵冷风而已 It's probably just a draft.
这时我上场了 This is where I come in.
在下里奥科佩尼 Leo Kopernick's the name.
好莱坞大导演 Big-shot Hollywood director.
受雇拍摄没舞台剧 Hired to make the film adaptation
那么无聊的电影版 marginally less boring than the play.
如果编剧自大傲慢 就知易行难了 Easier said than done when the writer's a giant pompous ass.
马文考克诺里斯 Mervyn Cocker-Norris.
天啊 你好高 I say, you're rather tall.
是吗？其实我没想过 Am I? Haven't really thought about it, to be honest.
太高才撞到吗？ Is that what happened here?
算吧 在后台出了点小意外 Sort of. I had a bit of an accident backstage.
当然 他饱读诗书 出口成章 Sure, he's educated and he knows a lot of $10 words,
但似乎没看过电影 but it's like he's never seen a film before,
遑论编写剧本 let alone try to write one.
哦 走开 Oh, ma vattinne!
奇斯图是谁？ Chi e chistu?
不重要的人 No one important.
嘿 无论女孩或野兽 只要呼吸 Omm, femmina o bestia, basta che respira!
有时你把那不勒斯人演得太火爆了 You know, at times you do rather overdo the temperamental Neapolitan.
外套很好看 That's a nice jacket.
帮我端杯真正的好酒来 小子 Say, why don't you scare me up a real drink, will you, kid?
裸麦威士忌或波本 否则机油也行 Like a pint of rye or bourbon or motor oil, if you have to.
快去 Yeah. Hop to it, now, huh?
在英格兰 这算得上服务周到了 In England, that actually counts as good service.
战时我驻扎在这里 I was stationed here during the war
真要说的话 比起纳粹轰炸时 and, if anything, the locals are more uptight now
现在当地人来得更紧张 than when they had the Luftwaffe overhead.
马文？ Mervyn?
你不是该在家吗？ Shouldn't you be home?
我们快截稿了 I thought we had a deadline.
我也这么想 I thought so too.
但我们尊贵的导演撕毁剧本 But then our esteemed director tore up the screenplay
叫我全部重写 and told me to start all over again.
他认为开头如果没有人惨死 He's of the opinion that a modern audience will walk out in protest
现代观众会愤而走出戏院表达抗议 if they're not served at least one violent death in the opening frames.
只能说 我们正在冷战中 Suffice to say, we are no longer on speaking terms.
马文 Merv!
伦敦最敏感的作家 London's most sensitive writer.
《捕鼠器》如何？ How is The Mousetrap, huh?
他们逮到凶手了吗？ Did they catch the guy who did it?
我不愿站在这里遭人羞辱 I will not stand here and be insulted.
我想他要去那边被人羞辱 Well, I guess he's gonna go over there and be insulted.
金童玉女来了 What passes for glamour in these parts.
席拉辛姆与狄克艾登堡 Sheila Sim and Dickie Attenborough.
这小子喜欢高谈阔论 Kid likes the sound of his own voice.
我敢赌他要发表谈话 Even money, he makes a speech.
我想我该说几句话 I suppose I ought to say a few words.
别讲太久 Not too many.
我才不会 - 记得我们的婚礼吗？ And when have I ever? Our wedding, remember?
差点错过了蜜月旅行 We almost missed the honeymoon.
-对 Yes.
各位 你们太客气了 Darlings, you're ever so kind.
我想请大家举杯 I'd like to ask you all to raise a metaphorical bat
以示庆祝 to the old pavilion.
《捕鼠器》100次演出 屹立不摇 The Mousetrap is 100, not out.
干杯 -干杯 Cheers! ALL: Cheers!
跟你说还有什么屹立不摇 LEO: I tell you what else is 100 not out.

你吃够多了 - 嗨 you've had quite enough. Hi.
我不爱讲别人八卦 Now, I'm not one to tell tales out of school,
但这边的女孩超迷恋美国腔 but the girls over here,
they go wild for an American accent
渴望能收到尼龙丝袜 and the promise of a pair of nylons.
不过她们的老公… But the husbands...
我想该有人给你一点教训 Right. I think it's time someone taught you a lesson.
他们没那么容易摆平 ...they're not so easily won over.
我该警告你 我在皇家空军学过拳击 It's only fair to warn you that I learned to box in the RAF.
是喔？我在健身房学过开飞机 Yeah? Well, I learned to fly a plane in Gleason's Gym.
以上就是… All of which explains,
以一种迂回的方式说明 in an admittedly roundabout fashion,
我为何来到剧院后台区换衣服 how I come to be in the theater's backstage area in need of a change of clothes.
有人吗？ Hello?
出口
完了 Aw, jeez.
我想我早该料到的 I guess I should have seen this coming.
挂掉的总是最不讨人喜欢的角色 It's always the most unlikable character who gets bumped off.
这是猜凶手的故事 It's a whodunit.
看过一出就等于看了全部 You've seen one, you've seen 'em all.
看你往哪跑

我没说 我说写得不好 I didn't say that. I said it's bad writing.
我在类型的局限下尽力而为 I did the best I could within the confines of the genre,
沃夫非常喜欢 and Woolf loved it!
沃夫不会分辨剧本的好坏 Woolf wouldn't know a good script if it came up and bit him on the ass.

你们正好来喝上午茶 You're just in time for elevenses.
《捕鼠器》
不好意思这么乱 You must excuse the desordre,
我在为改编电影作功课 it's research for the film adaptation.

《捕鼠器》其实是根据真实案件改编 The Mousetrap is actually based on a real-life case.
喝荨麻茶吗？ Nettle tea?
我知道你还来不及消化 I appreciate you've not yet had time to come to terms
科佩尼先生的死讯 不过… with the death of Mr. Kopernick, but...
他的舌头真的被拔出来吗？ Is it true his tongue was pulled out?
侦察不公开 I'm afraid I can't divulge details
细节不能多谈 of an ongoing investigation.
好恶心 It was disgusting.
什么？ What?
那是我外甥吉欧 很暴躁 That's Gio. Nephew of mine. Very hotheaded.
搞不好是那些烟害的 I wonder if it isn't all the fumes.
化学药品造成的 You know, from the chemicals.
他是业余标本师 He's an amateur taxidermist.
很迷恐怖的死亡主题 He has a fascination with the macabre.
我叫它斯廷法利斯湖怪鸟系列 I call it his Stymphalian Bird series.
以鸟类学角度出发的死亡主题 Macabre in a strictly "ornithological" sense, that is.
你想问我里奥的事？ You wanted to ask me about Leo?
听说在萨伏伊饭店发生争执 STOPPARD: We heard there was an argument at the Savoy,
我注意到另一半在你手上 and I noticed you had the other half of this.
督察 我们意见相左 如此而已 Inspector, that was a contretemps, nothing more.
念一下那部分 Read that part. Yeah.
「我会宰了你 科佩尼 混蛋」 "I'll kill you for this, Kopernick, you bastard."
显然我… Well, obviously, I...
断章取义… Taken out of context, I...
那是盛怒之下说的气话 Those words were spoken in anger and under extreme provocation.
我们只是出现创作上的歧见 We had creative differences, that's all.
你喜欢《捕鼠器》吗？ How did you like The Mousetrap?
那出戏？ Oh, yeah, the play? Mmm.
我还没看 Yeah, I, uh... I didn't see it yet.
我可以写大纲… -不用 Well, if you'd like, I can precis this... No, no, no.
我有概念 猜凶手的故事嘛 I got the basics. It's a whodunit, right?
有尸体 警探… So, you got a dead body, a detective,
很凑巧 所有嫌疑人 and then all the suspects rather conveniently
最后都聚在偏僻的乡间别墅里 end up in a remote country house together.
简单说是如此 In a nutshell.
我们的任务是将一连串离奇事件 Our task will be to present this improbable series of events
呈现在智慧平庸的观众眼前 to an audience of moderate intelligence
而且不要引起太大反感 in a manner that does not cause too much offense.
简单 Easy.
倒叙 Flashbacks.
不要 No.
不要什么？ No what?
不要用倒叙 No flashbacks.
那样粗糙偷懒 干扰故事的流畅度 They are crass, lazy, and they interrupt the flow of the story.
我认为那是想像力枯竭的最后手段 In my opinion, they are the last refuge of a moribund imagination.
再来呢？ Whatever next?
打上字幕「三周后」吗？ A caption that says, "Three weeks later"?
三周后
马文 别闹了 Merv. Merv, will you come on?
太离谱了 开门好吗？ This is crazy. Will you open the door?
等沃夫到我才出来 I'm not coming out until Woolf gets here.
这次又是怎样？ What is it this time?
我告诉你怎么回事 I'll tell you what it is.
我提出一个新的结局 I pitched a new ending,
大编剧却把自己锁在浴室里 Cockamamie-Novice over here locks himself in the bathroom.
是要取代飞车追逐吗？ Is this instead of the car chase?
他还以为 As well as.
「结局」是「枪战」的法文 I think he thinks "denouement" is French for "shootout."
至少先听我讲 Will you at least hear me out first,
再说你不喜欢吧？ and then tell me you don't like it?
我画了分镜表给你们看 请坐 Come on, I storyboarded it for you. Come on, have a seat.
为何不能让警探召集大家到客厅 Why can't we just have the detective gather everyone in the drawing room
然后揭晓是谁干的？ and then reveal to them who did it?
为什么？因为很老套 Why? 'Cause it's old, it's tired.
用过几千次了 It's been done a thousand times.
那谁来向观众解释来龙去脉？ So then who explains to the audience what on Earth's going on?
没有 No one.
不晓得 凶手吧 I don't know. The killer.
知道我有多受不了吧？ Now you see what I have to put up with?
麻烦请坐 Will you please have a seat?
在一栋偏僻的乡间别墅 So, a remote country house.
所有嫌疑人聚在客厅 对吧？ We got all the, uh, suspects gathered in the drawing room, right?
目前为止让人昏昏欲睡 So far, soporific.
突然 灯熄了 Suddenly, the lights go out.
我们的英雄抓住手枪 小心走进走廊 Our hero grips his Colt Special, edges into the hall.
凶手手上有人质 不能贸然出手 The killer's got a hostage, can't get a clear shot.
突然间 砰的一声 Suddenly, kaboom!
屋子陷入火海 The place goes up in flames.
砰 砰！ Blam! Blam!
英雄射杀凶手 Our hero plugs the killer.
一枪射中肚子 One in the gut!
一枪射中膝盖 One in the knee!
接着 突然间 Then, all of a sudden...
他的枪卡弹了 His goddamned gun jams.
他成了活靶 He's a sittin' duck.
抱歉 不是这张 Sorry, not that one.
不好意思 I'm sorry about this.
他坐以待毙 He's a sittin' duck.
凶手奄奄一息但还没断气 Our killer, dying but not dead,
瞄准 takes aim.
砰 他开枪 Boom! He fires.
就在此时 Out of nowhere,

那他是清白的吗？ So, then he's in the clear?
不见得 No, not necessarily.
他还是可能为了别的原因杀死科佩尼 He might have killed Kopernick for another reason entirely.
跟您说 I tell you,

那算消毒水 我有补牙 It's an antiseptic. I had a filling.
我以为您说是例行检查 I thought you said it was a routine checkup.
看来你侦讯技巧学得不错 I see we've read the chapter on interrogation techniques.
长官 Sir,
我知道我还没令您刮目相看 I know I haven't done anything yet to impress you
让您对我有信心 or to inspire any confidence, and...
您应该宁愿我没参与本案 I know you'd probably rather that I wasn't on the case.
但我也没要求加入 长官 But I didn't ask to be put on this case either, sir.
我很紧张 现在还是 I was nervous, and I still am,
大概也太认真了 and I'm probably trying a bit too hard.
但即使我犯了错 But, you know, even if I do make mistakes
或是妄下定论 or if I jump to conclusions

一般身高 Average height,
中等身材 medium build.
跟督察一样吗？ Would you say like the Inspector?
对 Yeah.
应该吧 差不多 Suppose so. Pretty much.
他做了什么让你起疑？ So what did he do that made you suspicious?
不是他做了什么 It wasn't so much what he did,
而是他做的方式 it was more, you know, the way he did it.
是 他怎么做？ Right. How'd he do it?
有点可疑 Well, sort of... suspiciously.
非常好 This has been great.
你可以走了 Off you go.
谢谢 - 谢谢 Thank you. Thank you.
谢谢 Thank you.
很好 That was good.
您觉得顺利吗？ Do you think that went well?
该跟和科佩尼打架的演员谈谈了 I think it's time we talk to that actor who had a fight with Kopernick.
艾登堡先生吗？ Mr. Attenborough, sir?
就是他 他很有名吗？ That's the one. Famous, is he?
您开玩笑吧 您没听过狄克？ You're pulling my leg, sir. You've never heard of Dickie?

那次冲突有特别的原因吗？ Was there a particular reason for the ill feeling?
请问督察 你因为战争才跛脚吗？ Tell me, Inspector, did you get your limp during the war?

他是制片 He is the producer.
亲爱的 他只负责开支票 Honey, he just cuts the checks.
我是导演 I'm the director.
少了我电影就拍不成 懂吗？ Without me, there is no movie. You understand?
有意见吗 老兄？ You got a problem, buddy?
不用找了 杯子拿走 Keep the change. And the glass.

我不会撒谎 督察 I won't lie, Inspector.
他死不足惜 I was not entirely sorry to learn of his demise,
但与我无关 but I had no part in it.
就像《捕鼠器》改编成的电影 Much like the film adaptation of The Mousetrap, it would seem.
别这样 你又不确定 Oh, come now, darling, you don't know that.
沃夫答应给你那个角色 Woolf promised you the role.
他言出必行 是伊顿公学高材生 He's a man of his word. He went to Eton.
醒醒吧 狄克 Wake up, Dickie.
他为了拍片什么都会答应 He's a man of whatever word will get his film made.

哈啾？- 保重 长官 Choo? Bless you, sir.
不 是佩杜拉史宾瑟 No, as in Petula Spencer.
她将电影版权卖给沃夫 She sold Woolf the film rights.

对吧 督察？ Isn't that so, Inspector?
我周末通常也不忙 I don't usually have a lot on on weekends either.
或周一 我是说戏票 Or Mondays. For the... For the tickets.
警员 - 长官 Constable. Sir.

试镜
她能见你们了 She'll see you now.
你是这家剧院的老板？ So, you own this theater?
是 我白手起家 Yes. Humble beginnings.
别在意我母亲 You'll have to excuse Mother.
家父在一战中丧生后她就失魂落魄的 She's not been herself since Father died, in the first Great War.
都过30年了 It's been a long 30 years.
你真好 还给她工作 It's nice that you gave her a job.
不然她拿什么付房租？ Well, how else is she gonna pay the rent?
我给她住的空房已经打过折了 I let her have the spare room at a discount as it is.
对 你可以停了 Yes, no. You can stop there.
我们知道了 很棒 We get the idea. Bravo.
据我所知你将 I understand that you handled the sale
《捕鼠器》的电影版权 卖给约翰沃夫？ of The Mousetrap film rights to John Woolf?
对 没错 怎么了吗？ Yes, that's right. I did. Wait... Why?
他说了什么？ What's he been saying?
他真爱装可怜 Oh, he's such a crybaby.
他一副我拿着枪逼他似的 Honestly, he acts as though I put a gun to his head.
等一下 这很重要吗？ Hang on a minute. Is this important?
应该不是 上面写什么？ I doubt it. What does it say?
「根据舞台剧《捕鼠器》改编的电影 "No motion picture based on the stage play The Mousetrap
自首度剧场 "is to enter into production
公演结束后至少六个月 "until a minimum of six months have elapsed
方能展开制作」 "since the end of its first theatrical run."
这你不必操心 Oh, you don't need to worry about that.
它是猜凶手的故事 一旦结局外泄 It's a whodunit. As soon as word gets out who did do it,
观众自然就减少了 audiences are bound to drop off.
快点签名 我要敬酒 Come on, sign on the dotted line, and I'll make a toast.
安 我下次签的就是我们的结婚证书 Ann, darling, the next contract I sign will be our marriage certificate.
先签离婚协议书 Well, first it'll be the divorce papers.
再来就是结婚证书 But then our marriage certificate.
艾达娜 亲爱的 Edana, darling.
真是惊喜啊 What a pleasant surprise.
你认识小秋和安 You know Choo and, uh... Mmm-hmm.
认识 ...Ann. I do.
小姐 你在底下干什么？ Dear girl, what on Earth are you doing down there?
刚刚摔下去了 不好意思 I just fell over. Excuse me.
我就像请了个谐星当助理 Honestly, it's like having Buster Keaton for an assistant.
我刚从季娜夫人那边过来 Now, I've just come from Madame Zena...
亲爱的 真希望你不会去见那个… Oh, darling, I really wish you wouldn't see that...
拜托别说她是骗子 Please don't call her a charlatan.
我要说的是疯子 I was going to say "crackpot."
这是什么？- 塔罗牌 What's this? It's a Tarot card.
我知道 代表什么意思？ I can see that. What does it mean?
背叛 Betrayal.
背叛是指外遇 不是合约 Betrayal as in his affair, not the contract.
合约光明正大 现在还是 That was above board. Is above board.
坚持那项条款的是阿嘉莎 不是我 Agatha insisted on that clause, not me.
她极力保护自己的作品 因为… No, she's fiercely protective of her own work, you see, because...
她不得不 Well, she has to be.
大家被惹毛了 People get so riled up.
她还收到死亡威胁 She's had death threats, you know.
真可怜 她连写信给《泰晤士报》 Poor girl can't write so much as a letter to The Times
都有一堆人采取法律行动 without a deluge of legal action
诬指她剽窃情节或角色 and spurious claims she stole this plot or that character.
那不是这里发生的情形吗？ Isn't that what happened here, though?
《捕鼠器》不是真实事件改编的吗？ Isn't The Mousetrap based on a true story?
对 原本是 只有一点点 Yes. Well, originally. I mean, tangentially.
总之 就因为那样 In any case, that's the reason
那晚沃夫急着关闭剧院 Woolf was so keen to shut the theater the other night.
他得等戏在西区公演结束才能拍片 He can't make his film until the play ends its run in the West End.
结果公演大获成功 As it is, what with the play being such a phenomenal success,
他进退两难 he's stuck in theatrical purgatory.
沃夫残酷无情 He's a ruthless customer, is Woolf.
为了拍片不择手段 He'll stop at nothing to get his film made.
绝对是沃夫干的 长官 It's definitely Woolf, sir.
也不是百分之百 Well, not 100%.
差不多百分之73到74 More like 73-74%, I'd say.
他在剧院杀了科佩尼 迫使它关闭 He killed Kopernick in the theater to force it to close down
那样他就能拍片 so that he could make his film.
也能娶他的情妇 He could marry his mistress.
同时摆脱勒索他的人 And then he could get shot of a blackmailer.
