GONE WITH THE WIND(飘)中英文对照电影剧本 English .中文 IntroductionGone With the Wind, an all-time best-seller by Margaret Mitchell, is a legendary recollection of the last brilliance of the Old South. The writers debut novel was an instant success. And the story has been bestowed an even further reaching popularity since Vivian Leigh presented a vivid translation to the screen of Katie Scarlett OHara, a southern belle raised in her fathers white-pillared plantation Tara. A climax of Hollywood, from Director Victor Fleming for MGM, Gone with the Wind is more than a vicissitude, it is also an old, lost culture revisited.It is Old South, which today is no more than a dream remembered. People were once there, living with the high strong slaves songs in the quarters, in security, peace and eternity. Here, Scarlett spends her young maiden years. She is well disciplined by her mother, but her blazing green eyes always betray her covert capricious self; the one who enjoys parties and the surrounding ofbeaus. She dreams to marry the noble Ashley Wilkes. The impending war shatters the golden peace of the South, and leaves many lives permanently changed. Plantations, treasures, and honor are ruined. Scarlett is made a most peculiar widow by the war, and then compelled into a second marriage in continuation of her struggle for the salvation of Tara. And her third marriage to Rhett Butler is also jeopardized because of her secret, stubborn ardency for Ashley.In the end of the movie, Scarlett is left only with her Tara, a plantation which symbolizes the culture of the Old South, a place where she could ever gather her strength.Chapter 1 Scarletts Jealousy (Tara is the beautiful homeland of Scarlett, who is now talking with the twins, Brent and Stew, at the door step.) BRENT: What do we care if we were expelled from college, Scarlett. The war is going to start anyday now so we would have left college anyhow.STEW: Oh, isnt it exciting, Scarlett? You know those poor Yankees actually want a war? BRENT: Well show em.SCARLETT: Fiddle-dee-dee. War, war, war. This war talk is spoiling all the fun at every party this spring. I get so bored I could scream. Besides, there isnt going to be any war.BRENT: Not going to be any war? STEW: Ah, buddy, of course theres going to be a war. SCARLETT: If either of you boys says war just once again, Ill go in the house and slam the door. BRENT: But Scarlett honey. STEW: Dont you want us to have a war? BRENT: Wait a minute, Scarlett. STEW: Well talk about this. BRENT: No please, well do anything you say. SCARLETT: Well-but remember I warned you. BRENT: Ive got an idea.

He has the most terriblereputation.SCARLETT: He looks as if, as if he knows what I lookedlike without my shimmy.KATHLEEN: How? But my dear, he isnt received. Heshad to spend most of his time up North because his folksin Charleston wont even speak to him. He was expelledfrom West Point, hes so fast. And then theres thatbusiness about that girl he wouldnt marry.SCARLETT:Tell, tell.KATHLEEN: Well, he took her out in a buggy riding inthe late afternoon without a chaperone and then, and thenhe refused to marry her!SCARLETT: (whisper).KATHLEEN: No, but she was ruined just the same.(Ashley and Melanie, on the balcony open to the garden.)MELANIE: Ashley.ASHLEY: Happy?MELANIE: So happyASHLEY: You seem to belong here.

MELANIE: Youre afraid of what may happen when the war conies, arent you? Well, we dont have to be afraid. For us. No war can come into our world Ashley. Whatever comes, Ill love you, just as I do now. Until I die.Chapter 2 Scarlett Meeting Butler (Noon time, the gentlemen are gathering in the downstair hall, talking about the war.)Mr. OHARA: Weve borne enough insults from the meddling Yankees. Its time we made them understand we keep our slaves with or without their approval. Whos to stop them right from the state of Georgia to secede from the Union. MAN: Thats right.Mr. OHARA: The South must assert ourselves by force of arms. After we fired on the Yankee rascals at Fort Sumter, weve got to fight. Theres no other way. MAN1: Fight, thats right, fight! MAN2: Let the Yankees be the ones to ask for peace. Mr. OHARA: The situation is very simple. The Yankees cant fight and we can. CHORUS: Youre right! MANS: Thats what Ill think! Theyll just turn and runevery time.MAN1: One Southerner can lick twenty Yankees. MAN2: Well finish them in one battle. Gentlemen can always fight better than rattle. MANS: Yes, gentlemen always fight better than rattle. Mr. OHARA: And what does the captain of our troop say? ASHLEY: Well, gentlemen.if Georgia fights, I go with her. But like my father I hope that the Yankees let us leave the Union in peace. MAN1: But Ashley. MAN2: Ashley, theyve insulted us. MANS: You cant mean that you dont want war. ASHLEY: Most of the miseries of the world were caused by wars. And when the wars were over, no one ever knew what they were about.Mr. OHARA: Now gentlemen, Mr. Butler has been up North I hear. Dont you agree with us, Mr. Butler? RHETT BUTLER : I think its hard winning a war with words, gentlemen.CHARLES: What do you mean, sir? RHETT: I mean, Mr. Hamilton, theres not a cannon factory in the whole South.MAN: What difference does that make, sir, to a gentleman? RHETT: Im afraid its going to make a great deal of difference to a great many gentlemen, sir. CHARLES: Are you hinting, Mr. Butler, that the Yankees can lick us?RHETT: No, Im not hinting. Im saying very plainly that the Yankees are better equipped than we. Theyve gotfactories, shipyards, coalmines. and a fleet to bottle upour habours and starve us to death. All weve got is cotton,and slaves and .arrogance.MAN: Thats treacherous!CHARLES: I refuse to listen to any renegade talk!RHETT: Well, Im sorry if the truth offends you.CHARLES: Apologies arent enough sir. I hear you wereturned out of West Point Mr. Rhett Butler. And that youarent received in an decent family in Charleston. Not evenyour own.RHETT: I apologize again for all my shortcomings. Mr.Wilkes,Perhaps you wont mind if I walk about and lookover your place. I seem to be spoiling everybodys brandyand cigars and.dreams of victory.(Rhett Butler leaves the hall.)MAN: Well, thats just about what you could expect fromsomebody like Rhett Butler.Mr. OHARA: You did everything but call him out.CHARLES: He refused to fight.ASHLEY: Not quite that Charles. He just refused to takeadvantage of you.CHARLES: Take advantage of me?ASHLEY: Yes, hes one of the best shots the country, hesproved a number of times, against steadier hands andcooler heads than yours.CHARLES: Well, Ill show him.ASHLEY: No, no no, please, dont go tweaking his noseanymore. You may be needed for more important fighting, Charles. Now if youll excuse me, Mr. Butlers our guest. I think Ill just show him around. (Ashley leaves the hall with intention of walking Butler around the house. But before he can do this, Scarlett calls him into a detached room.) SCARLETT: Ashley!ASHLEY: Scarlett.who are you hiding from here?.What are you up to? Why arent you upstairs resting with the other girls? What is this, Scarlett? A secret? SCARLETT: Well, Ashley, Ashley.! love you. ASHLEY: Scarlett. SCARLETT: I love you, I do.ASHLEY: Well, isnt it enough that you gathered every other mans heart today? You always had mine. You cut your teeth on it.SCARLETT: Oh, dont tease me now. Have I your heart my darling? I love you, I love you. ASHLEY: You mustnt say such things. Youll hate me for hearing them.SCARLETT: Oh, I could never hate you and, and I know you must care about me. Oh, you do care, dont you? ASHLEY: Yes, I care. Oh cant we go away and forget we ever said these things?SCARLETT: But how can we do that? Dont you, dont you want to marry me? ASHLEY: Im going to marry Melanie. SCARLETT: But you cant, not if you care for me.ASHLEY: Oh my dear, why must you make me say things that will hurt you? How can I make you understand? Youre so young and Im thinking, you dont know what marriage means.SCARLETT: I know I love you and I want to be your wife. You dont love Melanie.ASHLEY: Shes like me, Scarlett. Shes part of my blood, we understand each other. SCARLETT: But you love me!ASHLEY: How could I help loving you? You have all the passion for life that I lack. But that kind of love isnt enough to make a successful marriage for two people who are as different as we are.SCA
