访谈录 2013-03-03&03-05 第85届奥斯卡影帝刘易斯专访

 　　And the Oscar goes to Daniel Day Lewis.

　　Congratulations!

　　Thank you.

　　I was half thinking to say “Congratulations, Mr. President.” Stephan Furrin had some fun with your metaphor¹ early in the evening.

　　You stayed in character all day, every day, so like if you saw a cellphone, would you have to be like “Oh, my god, what’s that?”

　　It’s really has more to do with the reluctance² to put aside something that’s been so central to your life and a big part of time for a period, a considerate period of your life.

　　Since we got married 16 years ago, my wife Rebecca has lived with some very strange men.

　　Blood spin spilt falters³ this moment, now, now, now!

　　How much did it change your impression of who Lincoln was?

　　Well, I, it’s not that it changed, I didn’t know anything about him, so it really, everything that I learned was something new.

　　I had been actually committed to play Margret Thatcher⁴.

　　The more you discover the flaw lines in a character, the more impressive they become in a strange way.

　　I’d better take this with me.

　　And the Oscar goes to Christoph Waltz. Congratulations.

　　You can put it right there, congratulations.

　　Thank you.

　　You’ve won two Oscars with Quentin Tarantino who call that a hero’s journey.

　　We participated in a hero’s journey that the hero here being Quentin,Why is he a hero?

　　A hero’s journey, I think is usually connected to fight the leads to inner progress, and Quentin was working himself through this story.

　　Who slaved the dragon because he’s not afraid of it and you crossed through fire because it’s worth it. I borrowed my character’s words, sorry, couldn’t resist.

　　Why did you dig him up?

　　Well, four torturous⁵ turn of events brought Django and myself together.

　　It was exhilarating to be asked to participate in that journey, especially as a supporting actor. It’s the more you’re supporting, that more you’re supposed to help that story along. And what can go wrong now?

　　Ah, wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna a chicken dinner.

　　Awesome⁶.
