　　Oliver: 当有一天，邮差给她家送来一封信，她的母亲问她，你愿意自己看吗，然后她打 开信，开始读信。

　　Andrea: It said, “I’m delighted to say…”

　　Oliver: 当时她以为她妈妈在开玩笑呢，还对她妈妈说，别这么残酷。

　　Andrea: But she had got a place in drama school and that was it. She began to train to be the great actress that she is today.

　　Oliver: 从那以后，她开始出演莎士比亚的戏剧，她最新的电影作品是 Vera Drake (维拉 德雷克) 。

　　Andrea: The film Vera Drake did brilliantly at the Oscars and Imelda got to work with the famous British director, Mike Leigh.

　　Oliver: 那是非常辛苦的工作，但也是 Imelda 电影生涯中最能让她充分发挥的角色之一。

　　Well, I felt that was a job well done. And we finished it, it’s time we finished, we’ve been doing it long and hard, and I knew the experience I’d had was the most fulfilling of my working life.

　　Andrea: Imelda says that playing that part was a job well done. That means it went well and the result was good. A job well done.

　　Oliver: 她说整个拍片过程既长又艰苦，但是是她演员生涯中最充实的一段经历。

　　Andrea: Oliver, can you think of any jobs you’ve done that have been fulfilling?

　　Oliver: Not that much, actually.

　　Andrea: That’s a shame.

　　Oliver: 我想要成为 Imelda Staunton 那样的演员一定非常不容易。
