2001.5〈TIME〉 一 中文翻译版 带着一种兼有调情和强迫的诱惑方式和与观众挑逗,经久不衰的leslie cheung-- 演员,歌手,流行偶像--是香港伟大的的梦幻情人。 BY RICHARD CORLISS 在王家卫的1990年的《阿飞正传》的头几分钟里面,leslie cheung开始和张曼玉搭话。她可爱而孤独。他积郁而过于冷漠。透过忧郁,他向maggie吹嘘“你今晚会梦到我” 。第二天,他又来了,她嘲笑根本没有梦到他。" 当然," 他带着老练的自信回答道,“因为你根本没有睡觉” 。 这就是我们的Leslie, 温文而雅,有绝对的自信,又带着些残忍无情(他们爱他这点),还有一些隐隐的孤僻的忧郁。 作为一个从70年代末期开始的一个粤语流行音乐偶像和电影明星,张被一直被加拿大的评论家John charles称为“香港的猫王” 。他拿最高的电影片酬,他的新音乐CD “forever lesile” 在排行上攀升,他的演唱会仍然让全世界的他们(指歌迷)蜂拥而来。拉斯维加斯的凯撒宫的圣诞节前的演出, 票价高达到238美元. 在家乡,他是贪心的狗仔队的薄荷糖,” 他们跟着我到任何地方“,他说,” 他们知道我的车牌号码,所以不论我在 Mandarin酒店的咖啡厅还是在Propaganda(一个内情人知道的新酒吧),他们都会在那里。我甚至不会把我的垃圾筒 放在我的屋子外面,有人会在里面找东西然后卖掉。” 如果张不是仍然处于他的光辉时代--如果他不是还是如此要命的才气纵横,他足以被称为是流行音乐生命里的一个里程碑。 “猜猜他多大了?” (仿佛LESLIE是一张阁楼上正在腐坏的画像)。张44岁了,假如后半生里他在公众的眼里有了变化,那么是在他的或慷慨或节制的诱惑中,变的更为驾轻就熟。他在诱惑你的同时又放弃,调情的同时又有些抗拒。他是在亚洲的娱乐行业中,他有着最狡猾伶俐的,最具煽动性的挑逗。 作为一个演员,他是惊人的多才多艺,游刃有余在在艺术片(比如《霸王别姬》里面的矛盾的同性恋的京剧名角),动作 片(如《英雄本色》里面冲动的年轻警察。),悲剧浪漫片(如《夜半歌声》里面幽灵般出没的歌手)和轻松夸张的喜 剧(如《金支玉叶》里的音乐人)。去年,他在《枪王》里面扮演一个变态杀手。 在这些各类的角色里面是无法替代,迷一般难以琢磨的Leslie: 一个美丽的男人,对那些拜倒在他的魅力下的人来说,他的性感是一种赐礼或是象天灾一样让人无法抗拒,备受折磨。最典型的是情况是,她们爱他但他离开了她们,他在电影里说过“我不爱你” 的次数一定比任何人都多。但是他不仅仅在镜头前表演,他在镜头前是用一种精致的微妙的怀疑去演绎。 在一个全身的镜子面前仅仅用一段老练的恰恰舞来表现主人公的自恋,他在《阿飞正传》里面这段表演使这个情节魅力无穷。接下来,在令人难以忘怀的接近片尾处,没有移动一处肌肉,他却改变了情感的气氛,你可以看见这种感觉从他 的体内象脸上的红晕或擦伤的淤青一样蔓延开来。 在演唱会上,他不断的游说那些比较沉默的观众直到他们在舞台前面舞成一团,向这个流行音乐之神表示支持。他们直率 的狂热把他点燃了,张被爱着,他拥有着几乎完全赤裸裸的爱慕。在他的全年度的热情之旅里,包括两周前在香港举办的,他穿了八套JPG的设计作品,按照逐 变狂野的次序,从一件带着天使翅膀的白色礼服,到一件顽皮的短裙(和长长的黑色假发)。在他的多伦多演唱会上,有 一个声音大叫着“我爱你,LESLIE”, 他说“我也爱你们,不管你是男孩还是女孩”。这句话恰原来金枝于叶》中的台词,但是现在正示意了张雌雄难辩的演出服。兼有着 忧郁和爆发力,同时可以有嘲弄的笑和兴奋的眼泪,LESLIE是男人也是女人。 张欣赏自己勇敢的角色演绎,他最新的MV是有一段舞蹈表现的(和一个日本男芭蕾舞者),因为过于性感而被TVB电视台禁播了, TVB是香港最顶级的电视频道。他知道这给观众带来了怀疑--或者抱怨 --因为他是GAY, 尽管他还没有公开宣称他的性取向。” 更准确的说我是双性恋“,张补充道,” 我曾有过女朋友。当我22岁的时候,我曾向我的女朋友毛舜君求婚’ 。” 作为毛上个月的电视SHOW的嘉宾,张戏称,“如果你那时候肯嫁给我,就会完全改变我的一生” 他的生活在那之前是颇多变故的,张国荣是一个香港裁缝和他的妻子的10个孩子中最小的,这个香港裁缝曾给 威廉霍顿和艾尔非德希区柯克做过衣服。“我的童年并不快乐。 争吵,打架,我们也不住在一起,我是我的祖母带大的” ,他最近的兄弟也比他大8岁,leslie说他是“最小的也是最孤独的,我的哥哥们忙着约会女孩子的时候,我被遗忘在角落里,和GI JOE或者芭比娃娃玩。 这真是悲哀,我的父亲不能控制他的脾气,对我或我的母亲,我过去常这样想“这就是他们所说的婚姻吗?’ ” 在他12岁的时候,他去了英国位于norfolk的Norwich School, “那里有种族问题,歧视” ,他说,“但是我在那里交了朋友,在周末的时候,我去Southend-on-Sea那里看我的亲戚,那儿他们有一个饭店,我在那里做酒招待,我会做一些业余的演唱。” 在那个时候,他已经取了他的英文名字,“我喜欢看电影《飘》,我喜欢LESLIE HOWARD.这个名字可以是男的也可以是女的,是个没有性别的名字,所以我喜欢它” 在利兹大学的纺织管理专业学习了一年后,他回到了香港并在ATV的亚洲音乐大赛中得了第二名(唱的是“AMERICAN PEI” 。他的1978年的电影,《红楼春上春》仅因为他的露臀镜头而被关注,但是, 电影制作人把他的外形视做一个新的明星类型, 漂亮,脆弱,危险。他现在还有,不过做的更好。他是带着不羁的JAMES DEAN, 或者是更深度的JOHNNY DEPP. 在电影《倩女幽魂》和《胭脂扣》,他饰演的是两个迷人的鬼的情人,他做了很聪明的转型,后来在陈凯歌的《霸王别姬》 里面,他的表演赢得了国际上的喝彩-这仍然是他最完满最伟大的一个表演。 但是是王家卫诠释了Leslie的内心世界,《阿飞正传》里他是一个60年代的阿飞(无所事事的年轻人),这部电影为张赢得了 香港金像最佳男演员奖。在《东邪西毒》里面,他演一个好战的恶棍,在这部集合了众多最出名的中国明星和视觉华丽的电影 里,他老练地稳如泰山。在并不是所谓的同性恋电影《春光乍泄》里,他教梁朝伟如何入戏。 电影开始就是一段两个主角的做爱镜头,“当我们准备拍这段床戏时,Tony震惊了” ,张回忆道,“他不愿意拍。整整两天,他很可怜,躺在床上。我就过去对他说,” 看看我吧,我经历了这么多场的吻戏,抚摸女孩子,抓揉胸脯,你觉得我真的很喜欢吗?只是把它当做一个工作罢了,就当做是一个普通的爱情戏,我不会爱上你的,我也不想和你真的做爱,你不是我喜欢的类型“。 后来他同意拍了这段戏。”换一句话说,tony, 好家伙呀,你为什么不试着去演一演呢? 尽管张导演了一部一个小时长度的音乐剧和一部很多明星出演的反吸烟电影,他会继续演戏,他很快和梅艳芳,莫文蔚在 关锦鹏的电影会合作,他还希望和张艺谋以及《卧虎藏龙》里面的公主章子怡合作。仍然,永远年轻的leslie对他自己在 97后的香港的位置有着一些迷惑,“我已经沥血工作了20年了,” 他动容的说,“我曾经一贫如洗,为日常生活而奔波忙碌。现在我能住在一个有着合理的空间的独立的大房子里面。我在韩国和日本仍然拥有知名度。但是我可能对香港来说太陈旧了,这个地方太繁华,太粗俗,太奢华,我对于香港太脆弱了,我从来没有把我当做成他们中间的一个。” Leslie, 亲爱的孩子,为什么不再次看着镜中的你自己,跳一段优雅的恰恰呢?你会看到你一直也仍然是:梦幻中的爱人,情人, 甜美的王子。 后记:我不是英语文学专业出身,只有尽力翻好了,一些不当的地方,还请指教。本来想把找的三篇《时代》上面写leslie的文章都翻一下的,幸好有LA的翻译的Days of being Leslie在前。还有一篇是To Fall from a Great height, 记得有朋友说会把台湾中文版《时代》上的翻译贴上来,这样就剩下这一篇2001年的旧文forever leslie了。谢谢海岸MM,为我提供了这样一个小站寄托我对Leslie永远的哀思。 二 英文版 Forever Leslie Teasing his audiences with a seductive style that both flirts and forbids, durable Leslie Cheung—actor, singer, pop idol—is Hong Kong's great phantom lover In the first minutes of Wong Kar-wai's 1990 Days of Being Wild, Leslie Cheung strikes up a chat with Maggie Cheung. She's lovely and lonely; he's smoldering and supercool. Out of the blue, he purrs a boast to Maggie: "You'll see me in your dreams tonight." Next day he comes by again, and she brags that she didn't dream of him. "Of course," he replies with practiced confidence, "you couldn't sleep at all." That's our Leslie: suave, cocksure, with a touch of the brute (they love him for it) and a hint of sad solitude. A Canto-pop idol and film star since the late '70s, Cheung has been called "the Elvis of Hong Kong" by Canadian critic John Charles. He gets top dollar for film work, his new CD Forever Leslie is climbing the charts, and his concerts still pack 'em in around the world; for a pre-Christmas gig at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, tickets went—fast—for as much as $238. At home he is catnip for the voracious paparazzi. "They follow me everywhere," he says. "They know my car numbers, so they're there whether I'm at the Mandarin Hotel Coffee Shop or at Propaganda (a hip new club). I don't even put my litter outside the house. People try to find things and sell them." Cheung could qualify as a monument to pop longevity if he was not still in his glistening prime—and if he was not still so damned gorgeous. Any visitor to Hong Kong who mentions his name to a local will hear the same refrain: "Guess how old he is" (as if he kept a rotting portrait of himself in the attic). Cheung is 44, and if he has changed at all during his half-life in the public eye, it is to become more wily in the lavishing and husbanding of his allure. He simultaneously seduces and withdraws, flirts and forbids. He is the most cunning, provocative tease in Asian showbiz. As an actor, he is terrifically versatile, at ease in art films (as Farewell My Concubine's conflicted gay opera star), action thrillers (as the sensitive young cop in A Better Tomorrow), fantasies (as Brigitte Lin's mountaintop lover in The Bride with White Hair), dark romances (as the haunted singer in The Phantom Lover) and fluffy comedies (as the music mogul in He's a Woman, She's a Man). Last year he played a psycho killer in Double Tap. Inside these varied characters is the irreducible, enigmatic "Leslie": a beautiful man whose sexuality is a gift or a plague to those who fall under his spell. Typically, they love him and he leaves them; he must have said, "I don't love you" more times than anyone else in movies. But he doesn't just mesmerize the camera; he works subtle wonders before it. He glamorizes a scene in Days of Being Wild just by appraising himself in a full-length mirror while doing an expert cha-cha. And then, in unforgiving closeup, without moving a muscle, he will somehow change emotional temperature. You can see feelings rise in him like a blush or a bruise. In concerts he woos staid Cantonese audiences until they are dancing en masse in front of the stage, votaries to the pop god. Their innocent ecstasy turns him on; Cheung has an almost naked love for being loved. In his year-long Passion tour, which concluded two weeks ago in Hong Kong, he wore eight Jean-Paul Gaultier outfits, in ascending order of outrageousness, from a white tux with angel wings to a naughty skirt (and long black wig). At his Toronto concert a voice cried out, "I love you, Leslie!"; he said, "I love you too, whether you're a boy or a girl." The line happens to be one he delivered in He's a Woman, She's a Man, but it winks at Cheung's androgynous appeal. With a soul both pensive and explosive, equally capable of derisive laughter and hot tears, Leslie is all man-woman. Cheung enjoys this audacious role playing; his latest music video featured a pas de deux (with a Japanese male ballet dancer) so sexy that it was banned by TVB, Hong Kong's top channel. He also knows that it leads audiences to the suspicion—or compliment—that he is gay, though he has not publicly declared his sexual orientation. "It's more appropriate to say I'm bisexual," Cheung notes. "I've had girlfriends. When I was 22 or so, I asked my girlfriend Teresa Mo (his frequent co-star in TVB serials of the time) to marry me." As a guest on Mo's cable TV show last month, Cheung bantered, "If you'd agreed to marry me then, my life might have changed totally." His life was eventful long before then. Cheung Kwok-wing was born the youngest of 10 children of a Hong Kong tailor—he made suits for William Holden and Alfred Hitchcock—and his wife. "I didn't have a happy childhood. Arguments, fights and we didn't live together; I was brought up by my granny." His nearest sibling was eight years older; Leslie says he was "the youngest and the loneliest. My brothers would be dating girls and I was left alone in the corner, playing GI Joe or with my Barbie doll. It was miserable. My father couldn't control his emotions, with me or my mother. I used to think, 'And this is what they call marriage.'" At 12 he was sent to the Norwich School in Norfolk, England. "There were racial problems, discrimination," he says. "But I made friends there. And on weekends I'd go see my relatives in Southend-on-Sea, where they ran a restaurant. I was a bartender, and I'd do amateur singing." By this time he had chosen his English name. "I love the film Gone with the Wind. And I like Leslie Howard. The name can be a man's or woman's, it's very unisex, so I like it." After a year studying textile management at the University of Leeds, he returned to Hong Kong and placed second (singing American Pie) in ATV's Asian Music Contest. His 1978 film debut, Erotic Dream of the Red Chamber, was notable only for his butt-baring. Still, filmmakers saw his appeal as a new kind of star: beautiful, tender, dangerous. He still has it, and better. He's James Dean with a mean streak, or a deeper Johnny Depp. Cheung did smart star turns as the lovers of two beguiling specters in A Chinese Ghost Story and Rouge, and he would later earn international acclaim in Chen Kaige's Concubine—still his fullest, grandest performance. But it was Wong Kar-wai who illuminated the inner Leslie on the big screen. Days of Being Wild made him a '60s Ah Fei (shiftless youth) whose mistreating of women is his payback to the mother who deserted him; it won Cheung a Hong Kong Film Award for best actor. In Ashes of Time, cast as a martial-arts scoundrel, he ably anchored a film of top Chinese stars and rapturous visual splendor. In the not-so-gay drama Happy Together he taught Tony Leung Chiu-wai how an actor prepares. The film opens with a stark scene of the two main characters having sex. "When we tried to shoot the love scene it really shocked Tony," Cheung recalls. "He refused to do it. For two days he was miserable, lying on his bed. So I went up to him and said, 'Look at me, Tony, I've gone through so many scenes kissing, touching girls, grabbing breasts, do you think I really enjoyed it? Just treat it as a job, a normal love scene. I'm not going to fall in love with you, and I don't want you to really have sex with me. You're not my type.' So he agreed to do the scene." In other words: Tony, dear boy, why not try acting? Though Cheung has directed an hour-long music drama and an all-star anti-smoking film, he will keep acting; he soon joins Anita Mui and Karen Mok in a Stanley Kwan film, and hopes to work with Zhang Yimou and the Crouching Tiger princess, Zhang Ziyi. Still, forever-young Leslie is having midlife doubts about his standing in post-'97 Hong Kong. "I've worked bloody hard for 20 years," he says passionately. "I was penniless, dying hard for my groceries. I can now live in a reasonably sized detached house. I'm still very strong in Japan and Korea. But I may be a little passE in Hong Kong. The place is so extravagant, vulgar, expensive. I may be too soft for Hong Kong. I don't always count myself as one of them." Leslie, dear boy, why not try looking at yourself in the mirror and doing an elegant cha-cha? You'll see what you've been and still are: phantom lover, concubine, sweet prince.
