老友记第七季

S7E21 “The One With the Vows”，这一集离莫尼卡和钱德勒的婚礼只有四周，两人伤透脑筋在写誓词。所以故事没有进展，只有大量回忆，IMDb评分相对较低。

在不同场景里出现的一些招贴很有意思。之前讲过了莫尼卡客厅的两幅画【老友记 第九季 几幅画（老友记 第九季）剧评 //movie.douban.com/review/14462888/】。苏珊-桑塔格曾经说过，“招贴（posters）的作用是引诱，是劝告，是销售，是教育，是使人确信，是吸引”。招贴有使过去年代浪漫化的作用，换句话说，是怀旧的商品化。复古招贴给人怀旧感，于是被用来点缀生活。在一个快速变化的年代，招贴可能会让我们想起过去那些稳定的年代。

这个角度更清楚些

Joey公寓的浴室门上是一幅吉尼斯的招贴，本剧招贴法语居多，还有部分俄语的。英文招贴相对较少。

吉尼斯这一幅比较突出。这是John Gilroy在1939年的作品“My Goodness My Guinness”。John Gilroy（1898-1985）从1928年开始就为吉尼斯制作广告，直到1960年代他的作品都非常受欢迎，至今吉尼斯仍从这些复古招贴以及其他收藏品中营利。这就是怀旧重新包装，成为商品的一个例子。

Joey公寓的另一幅招贴是“Les Mystères de New York”，又一幅法语招贴，内容却是有关纽约的。

这既是剧的广告也是一份报纸的广告。“Les Mystères de New York”是1915年开始在法国播出的剧集，改编自美国1914年的电影系列“The Exploits of Elaine”。法国剧集播出期间，故事的文字版在报纸“Le Matin”上发表。所以这幅招贴是不同媒介合作促销的早期例子。

莫尼卡和钱德勒的秘密恋情开始只有Joey知道。这一幕是两人在莫尼卡的卧室里劝Joey保守这个秘密。可以看到莫尼卡的床头是俄语三联画，有关于1980年22届奥林匹克运动会（the Games of the XXII Olympiad）。

这是唯一一次在苏联举办的奥运会，因为头一年苏联入侵阿富汗，所以22届奥运会被当时几乎所有的西方国家抵制。略讽刺的是，Mikhail Avvakumov和Olga Volkova为莫斯科奥运会所创作的系列宣传招贴画，却是以欢迎其他国家为主题，用不同语言写了“You Are Welcome!"。

那么，剧里出现前苏联的招贴，是不是意味着美国已经从冷战时代move on了？

莫尼卡卧室的另一幅招贴是红酒广告，1920年代René Vincent作品。法国符号一方面说明了莫尼卡和瑞秋对欧洲的向往，另一方面是对过往时光的罗曼蒂克化。走廊对面Joey和钱德勒的装饰多少中和了这种浪漫化。

所以为什么20世纪法国的时尚和精致为美国人广为接受和喜爱？

原因当然有很多。但最重要的，恐怕是法国正好是美国霸权文化的对立面：美国是墨守成规的，是物质主义的，种族主义的，暴力的，粗俗的；而法国则是个人主义的，理想主义的，隐忍的，文明的。美国人崇尚财富；而法国人更注重享受生活的甜蜜（la douceur de vivre）。如果说法国代表了高雅和精致，美国则是粗鄙的、媚俗的。

《老友记》这部剧也不仅仅是对欧洲或巴黎的向往，而是那种闲适平淡雅致生活所带来的吸引。

“I met Monica when we were just a bunch of 6-year-olds and became friends with Chandler when he was 25, although he seemed like a 6-year-old. I've known them separately and together. To known them as a couple is to know that you are truely in the presence of love. So I would like to raise my glass... to Monica and Chandler... and the beautiful adventure they are about to embark upon together. I can think of no two people better prepared for the journey.”

这是Rachel作为the maid of honor为Monica准备的wedding speech. 我也想给我最好的女孩们准备这个，我们都会幸福的！

Joey: Yeah! If you wanna sing at their wedding, well you sing at their wedding!

Phoebe: Yeah! And if you wanna look 19, then you… You gotta do something about your eyes.

(Monica opens the door to Ross and Rachel.)

Monica: Yes?

Rachel: Monica, what did you mean before when you said you didn’t want to talk to anyone, especially me?

Chandler: What a great apology! (To Monica) And you accept! Okay, bye-bye!

Rachel: No-no, seriously-seriously, what was the especially me part about?

Monica: Well, let’s just say it’s not the first time you’ve stolen my thunder.

Rachel: What?!

Ross: (To Rachel) Hey, here’s a thought.

(Rachel ignores him and follows Monica into the kitchen.)

Rachel: Monica, what are you talking about?

Monica: My Sweet Sixteen! Remember, you went to third base with my cousin Charlie.

1st base- making out, snogging, french kissing

2nd base- fingering/handjob

3rd base- licking out/blow job

Home run- full sex

Chandler: (entering) Ahh, third base.

Monica: It’s all everybody at the party could talk about!

Rachel: Monica, y’know what? The only reason I did that was because your party was so boring!

Monica: (gasps) We had a caricaturist!

Rachel: Oh!!

Phoebe: (singing, angrily)

"Whenever I get married, guess who won’t ask to sing? Somebody named Geller! And somebody else named Bing!"

(Exits.)

Rachel: Monica, your Sweet Sixteen was like a million years ago.

A sweet sixteen is a traditional birthday party for girls to have when they turn sixteen years old. In parts of the United States and Canada, sixteen is the age at which one may obtain a driver's license. It is also the age of consent(n.同意 赞成) in many states, hence it is viewed by many adolescents as an important milestone. It is the American counterpart of the Spanish and Latin American tradition of a Quinceañera, with both parties having the same sense but in Spanish-speaking countries it is at the 15th birthday.The term can also be understood to mean turning 16 without having been kissed.

Monica: And yet, here we are doing it again.

Rachel: Ugh, Monica I don’t want to steal your stupid thunder!

Monica: Oh please! Why else would you have made out with Ross?!

Ross: Got me. (He shows of his hands.)

Rachel: All right, easy mimey, the moment has passed, it ain’t gonna happen!

mimey<俚>小丑

Monica: I just thought it would be nice if I could have just this one night!

Rachel: I swear, I never wanted any part of your night! No one was supposed to see us.

Monica: Oh, is that why you did it in the secret hallway where nobody ever goes?!

Ross: Uh, Rachel, I’ve been thinking. I don’t think us getting together tonight is such a good idea. I’m calling it off.

call off v.放弃

Chandler: (To Ross) Way to save your dignity my man.

dignity n.尊严

Rachel: (ignoring them) Monica, why? Why would I ever want to take away from your night?

Monica: I don’t know! I don’t—maybe you’re feeling a little resentful. Maybe ah, maybe you thought you’d get married first! Maybe you can’t stand the fact that your formerlly fat friend is getting married before you!

resentfuly adj.愤慨的/formerlly adv.以前地

Rachel: Oh wow. That—y’know what? That is so unfair. Y’know what? Now I want to steal your thunder! Come on Ross, let’s go have sex!

(Ross tries to dismiss it by making that sound, but decides to go for it and follows Rachel.)

dismiss vt. (从头脑中)去除 不考虑 打消

Monica: (yelling after them) I can’t believe you’re gonna have sex on my engagement night!!

Chandler: Well, somebody should. (Monica glares at him.)

[Cut to Rachel’s bedroom.]

Ross: Look uh, if we’re gonna do this…

Rachel: We’re not gonna do this, all right? She’s just gonna think that we’re doin’it.

Ross: Oh, I see, so everybody wins.

(There’s a knock on the door.)

Rachel: Who is it?

Monica: (outside the door) It’s Monica, open up!

Rachel: Okay well Ross! Stop it please! Wait a minute! (Motions for him to follow her lead, but he angrily shakes his head no. So she pokes him.)

Ross: Oww!

Rachel: Yeah, you like that baby? (Monica bursts in followed by Chandler.) May we help you?

Monica: I just wanted to say that I hope you do have sex tonight and I hope that you guys get back together, but I must warn you, the night that you announce your engagement I’m going to announce that I’m pregnant!

Chandler: How is that ever going to happen?!

Rachel: All right Monica, do you want to know why I was with Ross tonight?!

Monica: I know why!

Rachel: No you don’t know why!

Monica: Okay! Why?!

Rachel: Because! Because I was sad.

Monica: What do you mean?

Rachel: Look, I am so…so happy for you guys, but you getting married just reminds me of the fact that I’m not. I’m not even close. And I don’t know, maybe I just wanted to make myself feel better. And I know that that’s dumb, but oh my God you were so depressed when Ross got married that you slept with Chandler!

(Ross looks at Chandler.)

Chandler: (To Ross) I don’t care, she slept with me.

Rachel: Anyway sweetie, I am, I’m so sorry I ruined your night.

Monica: (starting to cry) I’m sorry I almost made you sleep with Ross. (They hug.)

Ross: (deadpan) Well, I’m going to take off. (To Chandler) Congratulations man.

Chandler: Thanks.

Ross: (at the door) And uh, Rachel.

Rachel: Yeah.

Ross: What can I say, you missed your chance. From now on the only person who’s going to enjoy these bad boys (holds up his hands) is me. (Quickly realizes what he said and exits disgustedly.)

disgustedly adv.厌烦地

End

莫妮卡因为原生家庭的关系有一点讨好别人的倾向，有一次她专门做了糖果放到门口的篮子里希望邻居们接受她的善意。那些拿了糖果的人非但没有感谢，反而斗米恩升米仇，理所当然地去问她要糖果，有因为等待时间太久不耐烦的，还有凌晨四点去把人家吵醒的。莫妮卡虽然做糖果做得焦头烂额，但没法拒绝别人的要求，这时钱德勒站出来了，指责了那些自私的邻居。虽然这是一件小事，但正是在这样的小事中让人特别有安全感。很多现实中的男性就会指责莫妮卡不该给别人做糖果，给她讲道理说这样吃力不讨好，还说自己骂她是因为心疼她、为了她好。当事人心里会怎么想呢，她不知道这些道理吗？她是做不到啊！因为心里渴望被别人认同啊！没有安全感啊！如果有其他亲密的人弥补了她的安全感，以后再遇到类似的事，她当然知道该怎么应对了啊！结果呢，非但她的需求不被认同，还会因为对方这一番话而指责自己，怨自己为什么不懂拒绝，更深地否定自己。

喜剧往往包含着大量讽刺、挖苦与越轨行为，而间离效果在其中就十分重要，因为如果无法跳出来观看，其背后的悲剧内核就会具备极强的伤害性。 无论是小丑、马戏、相声、双簧，其艺术结构的第一件事就是制造非日常情景，但是情景喜剧由于其场景布置以及长期连载的特性，观众与角色无可避免的会产生情感联结。不幸的是，《老友记》没有注意到这一点并且大量使用无充分动机的乖戾行为来制造笑点，结果就是十分失败并且损伤故事性。在观看六季之后，我与每个角色都一定程度上的同呼吸、共命运，已然会为他们的人生进展而感动，但是其更失败的地方就在于这些人物弧光在日常生活段落与强剧情段落是十分不统一的。 相比之下，一个通篇彰显无厘头的喜剧电影或电视剧就可以很好的产生间离效果，预先设置的警告就可以让观众没有负担的享受喜剧背后的悲剧故事，而非在解除对抗剧情时建立起来的恐惧后建立新的对人物性格的恐惧。 有趣的是，比较相声与单人脱口秀，同样是一个“理不歪，笑不来”的故事叙述者，额外的捧哏巧妙的使故事的存在有所依托，避免了脱离真实后，使喜剧效果打了折扣，同时又会在故事过于具有攻击性时及时使其收敛，提供了调节观众情绪的功能，承担了讽刺带来的冒犯。
