这一期呢,带来老美剧迷们的新希望--《欲望都市》的电影版。美剧改编成电影有很多例子,其中有的很成功—如The Simpson: Movie; 有的就不那么好看了—最近出炉的The Other Boleyn Girl(和英剧The Tudors很多内容相似,偶个人认为就不如The Tudors内容完整了)。不知道《欲望都市》电影版会给该剧迷带来怎样的化学反应呢?

Sex and the City movie: will the wait be worth it?
《欲望都市》电影版:长久的等待值得么?
London premiere suggests test screening before critical scrutiny in New York
伦敦的首映式是电影在纽约放映前的探风之举。

Four years, over 1,000 costume changes and endless rumours and internet leaks later, Sex and the City: The Movie will hold its world premiere in London tonight. The film, the first spin-off from the long-running TV programme which followed the lives and loves of four New York women and was credited with everything from sparking hundreds of fashion trends to undoing decades of feminism, is one of the most highly anticipated openings of the year and has been trailed with an unprecedented but unsurprising amount of international publicity.
历经四年的等待,超过1千套的服装,无数的谣言,之后网上的剧透,《欲望都市》电影版终于定于今晚在伦敦举行全球首映。同名电视剧《欲望都市》讲述了四个来自纽约的女人爱情生活,囊括了无数潮流先锋,破坏了十几年来女权主义的努力—这部衍生电影也注定成为今年最为期待的电影之一,享有前所未有却不足为奇的国际知名度。
But to use one of the leading character Carrie's favourite phrases, one couldn't help but wonder whether the wait will be worth it.
That the premiere is being held in London instead of New York, which is often referred to as the programme's "fifth character", has been taken by some as ominous. The film is being screened in Berlin on Thursday and will finally show in New York on May 27.
但是将首映地点定在伦敦而不是纽约,这不得不令一些人担忧,毕竟纽约这座都市在电视剧里常被称作“第五个主演”。本周四,该电影将在柏林上映,直到五月二十七日才来到纽约。
New Line, the film's producers, insist that the decision was taken purely to maximise the "global appeal".
电影制作商—新线公司称,这个决定完全是为了最大限度扩大“全球影响力”。
Others, though, have suggested that by premiering in Europe the filmmakers are taking the "soft opening" approach, safely testing foreign public reaction before braving New York's more glaring critical lights. That most of the movie's cast is not even coming tonight for the premiere would seem to confirm that suspicion.
但是,其他方面则称,把首映地点放在欧洲是比较安全的开场,这样能在直面纽约评论的狂轰乱炸前探下欧洲影迷的口风。电影大部分主演没有出席首映式更是证明了这个猜想。
