《名人传记》之我是李小龙43:中国有李连杰和甄子丹

 　　When that little thing of disrespect crept into my life again which was the movie business, I got really angry.

　　当不敬再次潜入我的生活，危及到我的电影事业时我勃然大怒。

　　It is kind of shocking, isn't it,that that much time, 40 years has passed and there hasn't been one Asian-American romantic lead or even just a movie star on that scale.

　　那么长时间，将近四十年过去了，没出现一位美籍华裔主角。这确实有点不可思议，甚至没有美籍华裔电影明星都令人震惊。

　　An Asian-American movie star?

　　美籍华裔电影明星?

　　Not one.I dont think I could name an Asian romantic lead male.

　　一个都没有，我想不出任何一名亚裔男主演。

　　There hasn't really been anyone since my uncle here, particularly in Hollywood.

　　在我叔叔之前确实没有亚裔主演，尤其是在好莱坞。

　　Obviously out of China you have Jet Li, you have Donnie Yen¹.There have been no great Asian male leads in Hollywood who are sexy.

　　很明显中国有李连杰和甄子丹，但是好莱坞可没有性感的亚洲男主演。

　　Er, a lead male. Asian-American?

　　男主演，美籍华裔的吗？

　　I don't even look at him as being Asian.He's like Bruce Lee. He's like my idol².

　　我从没把他看作是亚洲人，他就是李小龙，他是我的偶像。

　　And that's something I guess I don't think of so much but I guess, yeah.

　　这方面我没多想过，但事实就是这样。

　　A Chinese nationalist watching Bruce Lee films will see Chinese nationalism.A white Westerner may not even notice the ethnicity.

　　一名中国爱国者能从李小龙的电影中看出爱国主义，但西方的白人可能就注意不到这点。

　　Maybe Dean Cain, right?Isn't he part Asian?

　　应该是迪恩·凯恩？他不是有部分亚洲血统吗？
