凱特·布蘭切特在《你去了哪里，伯納黛特》中塑造了一個難忘的角色

"Where'd You Go, Bernadette" offers a solid showcase for Cate Blanchett, in a movie that's notably slight, but finally sweet and touching. Director Richard Linklater moves from "Boyhood" to the pangs of parenthood in this adaptation of Maria Semple's bestselling novel, which pivots on the vital role creativity plays in our lives.

《伯納黛特，你去哪了》為凱特·布蘭切特提供了一個堅(jiān)實(shí)的展示平臺，這部電影雖然微不足道，但最終還是甜蜜感人的。導(dǎo)演理查德·林克萊特(Richard Linklater)根據(jù)瑪麗亞·森普爾的暢銷小說改編，講述了創(chuàng)造力在我們生活中扮演的重要角色。

That inherent message might bode well for "Bernadette," or at least Blanchett's part of it, to the extent it should speak directly to Hollywood peers. Its heroine is actually an architect, one who has set aside those ambitions when she's introduced, living a life of quiet desperation in Seattle, where her husband (Billy Crudup) works for Microsoft.

對于“Bernadette”來說，這種內(nèi)在的信息或許是個好兆頭，至少對于布蘭切特飾演的角色來說是這樣，因?yàn)樗鼞?yīng)該直接與好萊塢同行對話。書中的女主人公實(shí)際上是一位建筑師，當(dāng)她被介紹給別人的時候，她把自己的抱負(fù)放在了一邊，在西雅圖過著平靜絕望的生活，她的丈夫(比利·克魯?shù)缕诊?在微軟工作。

The tale of Blanchett's Bernadette unfolds in part through the eyes of her teenage daughter, Bee (newcomer Emma Nelson). The film's mother-daughter component provides its emotional core, especially with Bee preparing to head off to boarding school, which might help explain why her mom is in an especially foul mood.

布蘭切特飾演的伯納黛特的故事部分是通過她十幾歲的女兒碧(艾瑪·尼爾森飾)的眼睛展開的。這部電影的母女部分提供了它的情感核心，尤其是在比準(zhǔn)備去寄宿學(xué)校的時候，這可能有助于解釋為什么她的媽媽心情特別糟糕。

Bernadette clearly loves her family; it's everyone else who annoys her, including the local PTA types, among them a neighbor (Kristen Wiig) who embodies everything that Bernadette detests about life in Seattle.

伯納黛特顯然愛她的家人；其他人都讓她惱火，包括當(dāng)?shù)氐募彝ソ處熉?lián)誼會成員，其中一位鄰居(克里斯汀·韋格飾)身上體現(xiàn)了伯納黛特對西雅圖生活的厭惡。

"I'm not good when exposed to people," Bernadette mutters early on, a condition that becomes increasingly uncomfortable -- and its roots, eventually, clearer -- as the story progresses, building toward a vacation that she really doesn't want to take, squiring her kid to Antarctica.

“我不擅長與人打交道，”伯納黛特一開始就喃喃自語道。隨著故事的進(jìn)展，這種情況變得越來越不舒服，而且它的根源最終也變得清晰起來，她逐漸走向了一個她真的不想去的假期，帶著她的孩子去了南極洲。

Bernadette's misanthropic impulses are a source of humor, but they also speak to a pain and unhappiness that neither she nor those around her fully grasp. The efforts to understand that gradually lead to a conflict that causes Bernadette to take flight, giving meaning to the title.

伯納黛特的厭世沖動是幽默的一個來源，但它們也表達(dá)了她和她周圍的人都無法完全理解的痛苦和不快。為理解這一點(diǎn)所做的努力逐漸導(dǎo)致了一場沖突，導(dǎo)致伯納黛特逃跑，這也就賦予了這個標(biāo)題意義。

Linklater is an accomplished filmmaker, and "Bernadette" doesn't rank among his more ambitious efforts; nevertheless, there are relatable elements.

林克萊特是一位頗有成就的電影制作人，《伯納黛特》并不在他雄心勃勃的作品之列;盡管如此，還是有一些可以讓人產(chǎn)生共鳴的元素。

Blanchett turns Bernadette into a fast-talking force, someone who vents at people -- whether old friends or strangers -- in long bursts of dialogue. It's showy, but also a difficult character to make real and relatable, a hurdle the actress ultimately clears.

布蘭切特把伯納黛特變成了一股健談的力量，她會在滔滔不絕的對話中對人發(fā)泄——不管是老朋友還是陌生人。這是一個顯眼的角色，但也是一個難以塑造的真實(shí)的、令人產(chǎn)生共鳴的角色，這也是這位女演員最終克服的障礙。

"Where'd You Go, Bernadette" might have lost something in the translation from page to screen, but taken on its terms the movie is satisfying.

《伯納黛特，你去哪了》在從一頁到另一頁的翻譯中可能漏掉了一些東西，但從電影本身來看，這部電影還是令人滿意的。

Then again, even if audiences skip the movie in theaters, it's the sort of film that could find a receptive audience with exhausted parents looking for something to watch once their kids are asleep, who might understand the urge to run away from home.

話又說回來，即使觀眾在電影院里跳過了這部電影，這類電影也能找到一群樂于接受的觀眾，精疲力盡父母在孩子睡著后，他們就在找東西看，他們可能會理解離家出走的沖動。
