疯狂英语珍藏版 经典电影片段之美国丽人

　　American Beauty

　　(Lester makes a mess when he goes to work in the morning.)

　　Lester: My name is Lester Burnham. This is my neighborhood. This is my street. This is my life. I’m 42 years old. In less than a year, I’ll be dead. Of course, I don’t know that yet. And in a way, I’m dead already. That’s my wife, Carolyn. See the way the handle on those pruning shears matches her gardening clogs. Man, I get exhausted just watching her. She wasn’t always like this. She used to be happy. We used to be happy. My daughter Jane. Only child. Janie’s a pretty typical teenager, angry, insecure, confused. I wish I could tell her that’s all going to pass, but I don’t want to lie to her.

　　(Morning. Carolyn waits impatiently for Lester and Jane by the car.)

　　Carolyn: Jane, honey, are you trying to look unattractive?

　　Jane: Yes.

　　Carolyn: Congratulations, you’ve succeeded admirably. Lester, could you make me a little later please? Because I’m not quite late enough.
