究竟什麼是愛情,每個人心中或許都有著自己的答案。而在電影 One Day(《一天》)中,也給出了一個答案,愛情是邂逅,是牽掛,是分離,是錯過。

聰慧狡黠、出身平凡的Emma Morley與俊美自戀的花花公子Dexter Mayhew原本像兩道平行線,不會有任何交集。

大學畢業前夕的一天7月15日(July 15),兩人短暫邂逅,稱不上甜蜜,卻深深印入彼此心中最柔軟的部分。

此後每年同一天,倫敦、羅馬、巴黎、愛丁堡,時空變換,他們焦灼、傾訴、掛念、幻想、安慰、傷害,總是在最需要彼此的時刻,一再錯過。

影片根據英國作家大衛·尼克爾斯David Nicholls的同名小說改編。今天Sean要為你讀的是原著小說最後一章的節選,Dexter與Emma在畢業晚會的暢談之後,Dexter父母突然出現,打破了Dexter和Emma接下去的一切計劃。落單的Emma漫步街頭,其失落之情瀰漫在字裡行間。

And so Emma Morley walked home in the evening light, trailing her disappointment behind her. The day was cooling off now, and she shivered as she felt something in the air, an unexpected shudder of anxiety that ran the length of her spine, and was so intense as to make her stop walking for a moment. Fear of the future, she thought. She found herself at the imposing junction of George Street and Hanover Street as all around her people hurried home from work or out to meet friends or lovers, all with a sense of purpose and direction. And here she was, twenty-two and clueless and sloping back to a dingy flat, defeated once again.

『What are you going to do with your life?』 In one way or another it seemed that people had been asking her this forever; teachers, her parents, friends at three in the morning, but the question had never seemed this pressing and still she was no nearer an answer.The future rose up ahead of her, a succession of empty days, each more daunting and unknowable than the one before her. How would she ever fill them all?

She began walking again,south towards The Mound.

『Live each day as if it’s your last』, that was the conventional advice, but really, who had the energy for that? What if it rained or you felt a bit glandy? It just wasn’t practical.Better by far to simply try and be good and courageous and bold and to make a difference. Not change the world exactly, but the bit around you. Go out there with your passion and your electric type writer and work hard at something.Change lives through art maybe. Cherish your friends, stay true to your principles, live passionately and fully and well. Experience new things. Love and be loved, if you ever get the chance.

That was her general theory, even if she hadn’t made a very good start of it. With little more than a shrug she had said goodbye to someone she really liked, the first boy she had ever really cared for, and now she would have to accept the fact that she would probably never see him again. She had no phone number, no address, and even if she did, what was the point? He hadn’t asked for her number either, and she was too proud to be just another moony girl leaving unwanted messages. Have a nice life had been her last line. Was that really the best she could come up with?

She walked on. The castle was just coming into view when she heard the footsteps, the soles of smart shoes slapping hard onto the pavement behind, and even before she heard her name and turned she was smiling, because she knew that it would be him.

『I thought I』d lost you!』 he said, slowing to a walk, red-faced and breathless, attempting to regain some nonchalance.

『No, I’m here.』

One Day介紹


1988年7月15日,艾瑪(安妮·海瑟薇飾)和德斯特(吉姆·斯特吉斯飾)在畢業晚會上一見鍾情,一夜纏綿之後,他們即將踏上新的人生旅途。臨行之際,他們約定成為好朋友,並在之後每年的7月15日那天見面。工人家庭出身的艾瑪夢想著能讓世界變得更美好,而有錢的花花公子德斯特則希望遊戲人間。

20年中,曾經朝氣蓬勃、懷揣理想的他們也不得不向殘酷的現實低頭。艾瑪的工作際遇和感情生活都不理想,德斯特成了一個小眾的電視名人,終日沉溺在酒精、毒品中,婚姻也岌岌可危。當他們的人生道路不斷交匯時,他們的關係也隨之改變,友情和爭吵,希望和失落,淚水和歡笑。在這段人生的旅途中,兩人驀然回首,終於發現一直尋尋覓覓,最好的其實早在身邊。

Emma Morley(安妮·海瑟薇 Anne Hathaway 飾)

表面婉約,內心狂放。為德克斯特封閉自己的感情生活,一會兒認命,一會兒不甘,坎坎坷坷的前行卻是腳踏實地。

Dexter Mayhew(吉姆·斯特吉斯 Jim Sturgess 飾)

一個狂妄自我、心高氣傲、享樂拜金的紈絝子弟。艾瑪是他的完美的心靈伴侶,但他全然不懂得去呵護經營。只是把艾瑪當做一個可以隨時停靠的避風港,累了就倚靠,煩了就傾述,倦了就束之高閣。艾瑪更像是他的私人日記本,只不過記錄的都是虛空寂寞冷。
