It’s officially time for Kevin Bacon and the students of Payson High School to cut footloose!
凱文·貝肯和佩森高中的學(xué)生們終于可以自由自在了!
The actor made his grand return to the Utah school, which is one of the original filming locations from his 1984 movie Footloose, on Saturday following a months-long student-led social media campaign to get him to attend their final prom before Payson moves to another location.
周六,這位演員盛大地回到了猶他州的學(xué)校,這是他1984年電影《渾身是力氣》的原始拍攝地之一。此前,學(xué)生們在社交媒體上發(fā)起了長達數(shù)月的活動,希望他能在佩森搬到另一個地方之前參加他們的最后一次舞會。
“Go Lions! Here we are on this beautiful, beautiful spot on this beautiful, beautiful day,” Bacon told the student body, reports local news outlet ABC4. “It’s been a long time – 40 years – that just blows my mind, you know. Things look a little different around here. I’d say the thing that looks the most different is me.”
“去獅子!據(jù)當?shù)匦侣劽襟wABC4報道,培根對學(xué)生們說:“在這個美麗的日子里,我們在這個美麗的地方。”“很長一段時間了——40年——這讓我很震驚,你知道。這里的情況看起來有點不同。我想說,看起來最不一樣的就是我自己。”
The actor explained that he was initially surprised by the #BaconToPayson campaign — in which students recorded themselves recreating scenes from the film and performing its choreography — but that their perseverance and commitment won him over in the end.
這位演員解釋說,他最初對#培根派森活動感到驚訝——學(xué)生們在活動中錄制了自己重現(xiàn)電影場景并表演了電影的舞蹈編排——但他們的堅持和承諾最終贏得了他的支持。
“You were all just tireless. Unrelenting… You talked me into it,” he said. “I think it’s great to see that kind of commitment to anything. I also think that it’s amazing the power that this movie has had to just kind of bring people together, and connect on the basic ideas there are behind the movie – you know, standing up to authority sometimes, and to being forgiving to people who are not exactly the same as you, and for standing up for your own freedoms and your right to express yourself, and for having compassion for other people.”
“你們都不知疲倦。不屈不撓……你說服了我,”他說。“我認為看到這種對任何事情的承諾都很棒。我也認為這部電影的力量是驚人的,它把人們聚集在一起,把電影背后的基本思想聯(lián)系在一起——你知道,有時要站在權(quán)威面前,原諒那些和你不完全一樣的人,捍衛(wèi)自己的自由和表達自己的權(quán)利,對別人有同情心。”
In honor of the 40th anniversary of Footloose, Bacon’s foundation, SixDegrees.Org, has announced that it hopes to “create and distribute 40,000 essential resource kits to communities across the U.S.,” per its website. As part of their campaign, Payson students have pledged to create 5,000 of those resource kits, which they will make before prom this weekend as a way to thank the actor.
為了紀念《渾身是勁》40周年,培根的基金會,六度。Org的網(wǎng)站稱,該公司希望“為美國各地的社區(qū)創(chuàng)建并分發(fā)4萬套基本資源工具包”。作為他們活動的一部分,佩森的學(xué)生們承諾制作5000個這樣的資源包,他們將在本周末的畢業(yè)舞會前制作這些資源包,以此來感謝這位演員。
