25年前,一部《泰坦尼克号》让英国演员凯特·温斯莱特(Kate Winslet)成为了国际巨星。
25年后的今天,她与该片导演詹姆斯·卡梅隆(James Cameron)再度联手,合作拍摄了另一巨作《阿凡达:水之道》(Avatar:The Way of Water)。
这是凯特继《泰坦尼克号》之后第二次与卡梅隆导演合作,她在《阿凡达2》扮演一个名叫Ronal的自由潜水者,这也是梅特卡伊纳号上的一个关键角色。
Hollywood rarely depicts pregnant women as physically formidable forces on screen, butKate Winsletgets to bring one of those rare roles to life.
好莱坞很少将孕妇描绘成银幕上的超级英雄,但凯特·温斯莱特却演绎了这样的角色。
Winslet stars in “Avatar: The Way of Water” as Ronal, the female leader of the franchise’s seafaring community. “She is strong. A warrior,” Winslet previously toldEmpire magazineabout her character.
温斯莱特在《阿凡达:水之道》中饰演洛纳,该系列电影中礁人族的族长。“她很坚强。是一个战士,”温斯莱特之前向《帝国》杂志介绍关于她的角色。
“Even in the face of grave danger, and with an unborn baby on board, she still joins her people and fights for what she holds most dear: her family and their home.”
“即使面对重重危险,而且还怀有身孕,她仍然与她的人民一起,为她最珍视的东西而战斗:她的家人和他们的家园。”
凯特·温斯莱特X詹姆斯·卡梅隆,多少人梦回《泰坦尼克号》?
可能很多人都不知道,卡梅隆有一个外号,叫作“片场暴君”。和他有过合作的演员估计都深有体会。
凯特就曾直言,在拍摄《泰坦尼克号》的时候,自己差点被高标准严要求的导演差点逼疯,一场戏居然足足拍了上百次。后来她在采访中还开玩笑说当时自己恨不得拿刀捅死卡梅隆。
这一次,卡梅隆“13年磨一剑”,作为演员的凯特自然也开始了自己的挑战无极限!
她最近在采访中表示,为了演好其中的水下戏份,她特意去学习了水下憋气,达到了惊人的7分15秒,甚至刷新了从前阿汤哥保持的拍电影水下憋气时长纪录。
Speaking toTotal Film magazine, Winslet revealed that she has a video recording of her record-breaking underwater breath hold. Winslet held her breath for seven minutes and 15 seconds, breaking Tom Cruise’s record.
在接受《全面电影》杂志采访时,温斯莱特透露,她有一段录像,记录了她在水下憋气打破纪录。温斯莱特屏住呼吸长达7分15秒,打破了汤姆·克鲁斯的纪录。
“I have the video of me surfacing saying, ‘Am I dead, have I died?’ And then going, ‘What was [my time]?’” Winslet said. “Straight away I wanted to know my time. And I couldn’t believe it…The next thing I say is, ‘We need to radio set. I wanted Jim to know right away.”
“有一段视频纪录,我浮出水面说,‘我死了吗,我死了吗?’然后又说,‘[我的时间]是多少?’”温斯莱特说。“我马上就想知道我憋了多久。我无法相信……我接下来说的是,’我们需要广播。我想让吉姆马上知道。”
“She’s not competitive at all,” Cameron added.
“她不是那种很卷的人, “卡梅伦补充说。
“Well, I didn’t have to hold my breath for over seven minutes,” Winslet continued. “It’s just that the opportunity to set a record presented itself. I wanted to break my own record, which was already six minutes and 14 seconds. And I was like, ‘Come on!’ So I smashed my own record by a minute.”
“好吧,我没有必要憋气超过7分钟,”温斯莱特继续说。“只是,创造记录的机会出现了。我想打破我自己的记录,那时已经是6分14秒了。我当时想,‘来吧!’。所以我又超了自己的纪录一分钟。”
While Winslet held her breath for just over seven minutes, her “Avatar” co-stars were no slouches either.Sigourney Weaver held her breath underwater for six and a half minutes, while Zoe Saldaña’s longest underwater breath hold clocked in at five minutes.
尽管温斯莱特屏住呼吸的时间刚刚超过7分钟,她的“阿凡达”合作演员们也毫不逊色。西格妮·韦弗在水下憋气6分半钟,而佐伊·萨尔达尼亚最长的水下憋气时间为5分钟。

“Kate’s a demon for prep, so she latched onto the free diving as something that she could build her character around,” James Cameron toldThe New York Timesabout Winslet’s accomplishment.
詹姆斯·卡梅隆在谈到温斯莱特的成就时说:“凯特是一个练习狂魔,她抓住了自由潜水的机会,认为她可以利用这点塑造自己的角色。”
“Kate’s character is someone who grew up underwater as an ocean-adapted Na’vi — they’re so physically different from the forest Na’vi, that we’d almost classify them as a subspecies. So she had to be utterly calm underwater, and it turned out that she was a natural.”
凯特的角色是一个在水下长大的适应海洋的Navi种族——他们在身体上与森林中的Navi不同,我们几乎把他们归类为亚种。所以她必须在水下保持平静,结果她表现得非常自然。”
1975年出生的凯特·温斯莱特,今年已经47岁了,成功问鼎了奥斯卡、金球奖、艾美奖等主流奖项的最佳女主角,为什么还要挑战如此危险的戏份?
大概是Ronal这个角色所展现出的女性的力量,让同为母亲的凯特感同身受。
Winslet tells EW that directorJames Cameronhad already made the call that Ronal would be pregnant. “I just thought, ‘My god, that is just so cool,'” she says.
温斯莱特告诉EW,导演詹姆斯·卡梅隆已经决定给洛纳这个角色孕妇的设定。“我只是想,‘我的上帝,这太酷了,’”她说。
“Jim has so much admiration for women and pregnant women and what pregnant women are capable of, and how pregnant women are actually much more resilient and physically capable than I think often people give us credit for or would expect.”
“吉姆对妇女和孕妇以及孕妇的能力非常钦佩,孕妇实际上比我认为的更有韧性,身体素质更好。”
“I remember thinking she was so much more juicy and feminine than I had imagined in my mind,” Winslet recalls of seeing the first mock-ups of her character.
“我认为她比我脑海中想象的要更有故事感、更女性化,”温斯莱特回忆起看到角色的第一个建模的时候谈到。
“Strangely, I imagined she would feel much more severe and almost older in a way, just because the role was so wise and so powerful. I sort of associate those qualities with people who are older than me and cleverer and more worldly. So it was really nice to see just how feminine and free she was. I wasn’t expecting that.”
奇怪的是,我想象她会感觉更严厉,在某种程度上几乎更老,因为这个角色是如此睿智,如此强大。我有点把这些品质与比我年长、更聪明、更世故的人联系起来。因此,看到她是如此女性化且如此自由的,真的很好。我没有想到会这样。”
最近她还在伦敦出席了电影的首映式,挑选的还是7年前的礼服,不过这7年前和7年后竟有些分不清了。
就想问一句:Jack,你羡慕吗?(开玩笑的)
长期以来,女性尤其是娱乐圈的女明星,对衰老的话题讳莫如深。但凯特·温斯莱特显然是一个例外。
她淡然地接受岁月的馈赠,从不畏惧让自己的皱纹展现在镜头前,对自己常被外界吐槽的微胖身材更是从容不迫。
白幼瘦从未是审美定式。每一个有容貌和年龄焦虑的女孩,都应该读读四十多岁的凯特说的这段话:
“I think women come into their forties certainly mid-forties, and think, “Oh, this is the beginning of the decline… things start to change and fade in directions that I don’t want them to go in anymore,” she said in an interview with the BBC’s Woman’s Hour.
“很多女性在40多岁的时候会想,‘哦,这是衰退的开始……事情开始朝着我不想要的方向改变和衰退,”她在接受BBC《女性时间》采访时说。“
“But I’ve decided, no. We become more woman, more powerful, more sexy… we grow into ourselves more. We have opportunities to speak our mind and not be afraid of what people think of us.Not care what we look like so much.” This specific phase of life, Kate says, is “amazing.
“但我不这么觉得,不。我们变得更女人,更强大,更性感……我们成长为我们自己。我们有机会说出自己的想法,不必害怕别人对我们的看法。根本不在乎我们长什么样”凯特说,人生的这个特定阶段“令人惊叹”。
《阿凡达:水之道》定档12月16日内地上映,同步北美。你会去电影院支持凯特,支持这部等待了13年的续作吗?
