『壹』 憨豆先生英文介紹
Mr. Bean is a British comedy television series of 14 half-hour episodes starring Rowan Atkinson as the eponymous title character. It was written by Rowan Atkinson, Robin Driscoll, Richard Curtis and Ben Elton. The self-titled first episode was broadcast on 1 January 1990, with the final episode, "Goodnight, Mr. Bean", on 31 October 1995.
The series followed the exploits of Mr. Bean, described by Atkinson as "a child in a grown man's body",[1] in solving various problems presented by everyday tasks and often causing disruption in the process.
During its five year run the series gained large UK audience figures, including 18.74 million for the 1992 episode "The Trouble With Mr Bean", and was the recipient of a number of international awards, including the Rose d'Or. The show has been sold in over 200 territories worldwide, and has inspired two feature films and an animated cartoon spin-off.
The title character, played by Atkinson, is a slow-witted, sometimes ingenious, and generally likeable buffoon who brings various unusual schemes and connivances to everyday tasks. He lives alone in his small flat in Highbury, North London, and is almost always seen in his trademark tweed jacket and skinny red tie. Mr. Bean rarely speaks, and when he does it is generally only a few mumbled words. His first name (he names himself "Bean" to others) and profession, if any, are never mentioned, though he has been shown in the first episode to have a strong knowledge of trigonometry. (In the first film adaptation, on his passport "Mr." appears under the "first name" field and he is shown employed as a guard at London's National Gallery. In Mr Bean's Holiday, "Rowan" is seen on his passport name field. In a Blind Date parody, when asked of his first name, he responds "Mr.")
Mr. Bean often seems unaware of basic aspects of the way the world works, and the programme usually features his attempts at what would normally be considered simple tasks, such as going swimming, redecorating or taking an exam. The humour largely comes from his original (and often absurd) solutions to any problems and his total disregard for others when solving them, his pettiness, and occasional malevolence.
At the beginning of episode two onwards, Mr. Bean falls from the sky in a beam of light, accompanied by a choir singing Ecce homo qui est faba - Behold the man who is a bean. These opening sequences were initially in black and white in episodes 2 and 3, and were intended by the procers to show his status as an "ordinary man cast into the spotlight". However, later episodes showed Mr. Bean dropping from the night sky in a deserted London street, against the backdrop of St. Paul's Cathedral; later, in the animated series, he was shown to be an alien. Atkinson himself has acknowledged that Bean "has a slightly alien aspect to him".

憨豆先生的大災難
一部充分展示英國幽默的好影片,英國人熟悉的電視明星、喜劇泰斗、曾出演《四個婚禮和一個葬禮》和合演過007的羅溫艾金森出演令人笑掉大牙的比恩先生。本來笨拙的比恩先生是一家英國美術館展覽廳的守衛人員,竟被作為皇家美術館的代表派往美國參加一次名畫的揭幕式,他濫竽充數演出了很多讓人捧腹的鬧劇。影片藉此也諷刺了英美兩國的官僚主義。該片在歐美放演時大受歡迎,票房大獲全勝。

Based on a character developed by Rowan Atkinson at university, the series followed the exploits of Mr. Bean, described by Atkinson as "a child in a grown man's body",[1] in solving various problems presented by everyday tasks and often causing disruption in the process.

The character of Mr. Bean was first developed when Rowan Atkinson was studying for his MSc at Oxford University. A sketch featuring the character was being performed at the Edinburgh Fringe in the early 1980s.[4] A similar character called Robert Box, played by Atkinson, appeared in the one-off 1979 ITV sitcom Canned Laughter, which also featured a routine used in the film version.[5] In 1987, one of Mr. Bean's earliest appearances occurred at the "Just For Laughs" comedy festival in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. When program co-ordinators were scheling Atkinson into the festival program, Atkinson insisted that he perform on the French-speaking bill rather than the English-speaking program. Having no French dialogue in his act at all, program co-ordinators could not understand why Atkinson wanted to perform on the French bill. As it turned out, Atkinson's act at the festival was a test platform for the Mr. Bean character and Atkinson wanted to see how the silent characte

《戇豆先生》——英國BBC的招牌電視喜劇的劇名,也是該劇的主角名字。英國喜劇泰斗羅溫·艾金森(Rowan Atkinson)飾演憨豆先生、同時也是該劇製片及編劇之一。大家可千萬別小看這顆「豆豆」,他在英國可是號稱有1850萬觀眾,在其它語系地區也是赫赫有名、所向披靡。他的幽默內斂、充滿平常驚奇和對生活情趣的觸覺,已沖破語言障礙,有望成為卓別林之後的幽默大師。他創造了一種英國式的無厘頭。一般人的喜劇都要笑中有淚,或笑中有針貶社會時事,《Mr.Bean》的笑中只有笑,沒有政治,也沒有批評社會,但一點不令人覺得單純搞笑。
憨豆先生是個「有一點笨拙、有一點幼稚、有一點單向思維(腦筋不轉彎)、有一點靦腆、又有一點短路的傢伙,他的喜劇感來自你我都有可能會發生的日常生活中」。他平日的穿著則是非常典型的英國保守中產階級的裝扮。劇中他的對白極少,幾乎都是靠「豐富的肢體動作」和「變化多端的表情」來呈現給觀眾。討厭他的人也許會覺得,這個故作低能智障的傢伙實在令人作嘔,但欣賞他的人會覺得他實在太了不起了,能夠把英國式的幽默表現得淋漓盡致,可以算「用卓別林方式演戲的英國金凱瑞」。
英國式的幽默舉世聞名。與美國式的說話很滿、很誇張之後的捧腹大笑比起來,英國式只是點到為止的「莞爾」,一切盡在不言中。美國情境喜劇的喜劇感,常常來自家人朋友之間的「互相吐槽」(對話),英國劇則是通過肢體與表情來體現,戇豆先生便是其中的典型。
雖然憨豆先生的智商號稱只有「007」,但艾金森本人可是擁有牛津大學的電機工程學位。能夠扮得那麼白痴,絕對是精湛的演技,而非「本色演員」。英國人認為他創造了近年來最重要的喜劇角色,而且認定他天生就該吃這碗飯。其實,成名之前,他默默無聞地耕耘了相當長的一段時間,直到80年代初,藉助《非9點新聞》(Not The Nine O'clock news)一劇,他才開始嶄露頭角。在1984年的《黑蝰蛇》(The Black Adder)一劇中,他飾演言辭尖刻、愛冷嘲熱諷別人的愛德蒙一角,顯示了他能說會道的才能,而「憨豆先生」則展示了他肢體喜劇演員的天份,難怪有人說他那張臉就是他的財富。
近年來艾金森也開始躍上銀幕。比較著名的角色就是《四個婚禮一個葬禮》里那個緊張兮兮、把婚禮搞得一團糟的神父,以及《獅子王》里,擔任小獅王辛巴的保姆、老是嘮嘮叨叨的那隻犀鳥的幕後配音。之後,戇豆先生又傻乎乎地飛去美國。這個穿著整齊,但是頭腦簡單,常常闖了禍就落荒而逃的傢伙,「憨豆先生大鬧好萊塢」的姿態進軍洛杉磯,進行他擅長的「搗亂工程」。該片票房在歐洲已突破1億美元,1997年11月初在美國上映時,好評如潮。
「憨豆先生」究竟有多紅呢?看看有關他的商品就知道。除了劇片的錄像帶、VCD以外,還有印著他「傻冒像」的明信片、電話薄、賀卡,以及包括「蒙娜豆莎」造型在內的各式T恤。相關書籍也有好幾本,有劇本、劇照集及艾金森的傳記等。最精彩的應該是那本《憨豆日記》,裡面收入了憨豆生命中極隱私、極重要的點點滴滴,我們可以看到他「詩歌欣賞課」的老師哀求他改選別的課,雖然他是按時交作業的好學生,但他老是強迫別的同學聽他朗誦作品,結果人家不是嘔吐,就是嚇得不敢睡覺,班上學生跑了一大半。還有他的成績單,給了他35分的歷史老師給他的評語是:「He has no sense of history.But then,of course,he has no sense(他沒有半點歷史感,然而,當然,他什麼感也沒有)。」標準的非常戇豆式的評語。對於人們來說,不管欣不欣賞這顆「豆子」",通過他來了解保守冷漠的英國人的文化和民族性,倒也挺不錯。

路雲的電視連續劇《戇豆先生》(Mr.Bean)以無對白演出,首集節目奪得蒙特勒(Montreux)藝術節的金玫瑰獎(GoldenRose),以及在艾美獎獲提名。《戇豆先生》劇集被提名在艾美獎,以及奪得兩項班芙電影節(BANFFAwards)大獎及美國有線大獎的最佳喜劇獎(1995年)。
《戇豆先生》劇集的版權被賣到全球二百多個地區播放,成為十年來在商業電視頻道最高視的喜劇節目。路雲擁有股份的製作公司TigerAspect除負責製作《戇豆先生》,還製作令路雲著迷的汽車節目。不時參與電影演出的路雲,最近作品是合家歡喜劇《狗狗震》(Scooby-Doo),其餘的作品有1983年的《鐵金剛勇奪巡航導彈》(NeverSayNeverAgain),片中他與占士邦辛康納利合演、喜劇有1989年的《高佬先生》(TheTallGuy),路雲與謝夫高拔林(JeffGoldblum)同台演出。其他電影有《四個婚禮一個葬禮》(FourWeddingsandaFunera)及《反斗神鷹II》(HotShots!PartDeux)等。去年,路雲為《戇豆先生》的動畫版進行配音,該節目正在英國電視台播放。

憨豆先生的英文演講稿
-Mr. Bean was a British comedy television series of 14 half-hour episodes starring Rowan Atkinson as the title character. Different episodes were written by Rowan Atkinson, Robin Driscoll, Richard Curtis and one by Ben Elton. The self-titled first episode was broadcast on 1 January 1990, with the final episode, "Hair by Mr. Bean of London", on 25 August, 1996.
The title character, played by Rowan Atkinson, is a slow-witted, sometimes ingenious, selfish and generally likable buffoon who brings various unusual schemes and connivances to everyday tasks. He lives alone in his small flat in Highbury, North London, and is almost always seen in his trademark tweed jacket and skinny red tie.
Mr. Bean rarely speaks, and when he does it is generally only a few mumbled words. His first name (he names himself "Bean" to others) and profession, if any, are never mentioned. Atkinson has said, at the time of the first film's release that he imagines Bean's first name to be Julian, thus making Julian Bean a reference to famous guitarist and lutenist Julian Bream. He has been shown in the first episode to have a strong knowledge of trigonometry.

His father owned a farm where he grew up with his two older brothers, Rupert and Rodney. He attended Newcastle University and Oxford University where he earned degrees in electrical engineering. During that time, he met screenwriter Richard Curtis, with whom he wrote and performed comedy revues.
Later, he co-wrote and appeared in "Not the Nine O'Clock News" (1979), which was a huge success and spawned several best-selling books. It won an International Emmy Award and the British Academy Award for "Best Light Entertainment Programme of 1980." He won the "British Academy Award" and was named "BBC Personality of the Year" for his performing on "Not the Nine O'Clock News" (1979).
Atkinson also appeared in several movies, including Dead on Time (1983), Pleasure at Her Majesty's (1976) (TV) (aka "Monty Python Meets Beyond the Fringe"), Never Say Never Again (1983), and The Tall Guy (1989). He played "Mr. Bean" in the TV series, "Mr. Bean" (1990) but, apart from that and "Not the Nine O'Clock News" (1979), he also appeared in several other series like "The Black Adder" (1983) and "Funny Business" (1992), etc.

He was one of the guests at Prince Charles' and Camilla Parker-Bowles' wedding.
Has publicly opposed the British Labour government's plans to introce new legislation on incitement to religious hatred, arguing that it would undermine free speech and thought (even citing the possible development of mind-reading technology), and that such measures would make political satire - which he considers seminal in a democracy - unworkable.
Along with Tony Robinson and Tim McInnerny, he is one of only three actors to appear in all four "Blackadder" series: "The Black Adder" (1983), "Blackadder II" (1986), "Blackadder the Third" (1987) and "Blackadder Goes Forth" (1989).
Personal Quotes
People think because I can make them laugh on the stage, I'll be able to make them laugh in person. That isn't the case at all. I am essentially a rather quiet, ll person who just happens to be a performer.
[commenting in 2004 on Britain's proposed Racial and Religious Hatred Bill] To criticize a person for their race is manifestly irrational and ridiculous, but to criticize their religion, that is a right. That is a freedom. The freedom to criticize ideas, any ideas - even if they are sincerely held beliefs - is one of the fundamental freedoms of society. A law which attempts to say you can criticize and ridicule ideas as long as they are not religious ideas is a very peculiar law indeed.
Mr. Bean is essentially a child trapped in the body of a man. All cultures identify with children in a similar way, so he has this bizarre global outreach. And 10-year-old boys from different cultures have more in common than 30-year-olds. As we grow up, we acquire this sensibility that divides us.
