一楼度娘

偶然间上街买到了莱叔的自传，与其每天睡前一个人走马观花地浏览，不如每天更新一点和大家一起分享。这本自传还是很中规中矩地以莱叔的电影生涯为线索，一半讲电影幕后一半讲他的私人生活，很多原来长期被八卦的事情也可以一一在传记中找到答案。我尽量每天更新一点，细水长流，也同时练练翻译。鲜花板砖都收。
欢迎大家一起来翻译，如果有翻译不好或者不对的地方。欢迎大家批评指正


先从序言开始吧
【PROLOGUE】
Leonardo DiCaprio remembers the exact moment when Titanic transformed his life.
It came at Charles de Grulle airport in Paris. James Cameron's disaster epic was on its way to becoming the biggest movie in history and DiCaprio, then 23, had a young girl stuck to his leg. The delusional fan, overcome with emotion at finally being able to clap not just eyes on the heartthrob she had only dreamt about, rugby-tackled the actor and clung on for dear life.
Amid the chaos and the throng, Leonardo had a moment of charity and the absurdity of the situation struck home.
‘I looked her in the eyes,’he would later recall, ‘and said,"whatever illusions of grandeur you have about me, they're not true. I will sit here and I will talk to you. You don't need to cling; you don't need to dig your nails into my leg. It doesn't need to be this!"


我补充下，是传记，非自传。

莱昂纳多迪卡普里奥清楚地记得《泰安尼克号》改变他生活的那个时刻。
那是在
巴黎
的Charles de Grulle 机场。 詹姆斯卡梅隆的灾难史诗片正在成为史上最成功的电影，有一个小女孩抱住了23岁的迪卡普里奥的腿。这位妄想的粉丝，克服情绪终于等够不仅注视着她唯一梦见的万人迷，还能像抱住橄榄球一样粘附着偶像。
在人群和混乱中，莱昂纳多有那么一瞬间被慈善和荒谬的想法击中。
“我看着她的眼睛。”他说：“不管你对我有什么样宏伟壮丽的幻觉，他们都是不真实的。我会坐在这里与你说话，你不需要粘附着我，不需要把你的指甲嵌进我的腿里。完全不需要这样！”

吧主说的对，是传记。总是会犯错。
But the girl, who was no more than 14, had other ideas. It was as if she believed that by hanging on there, the somehow wouldn't notice-- and she wasn't about to give up such an opportunity without a flight.
Dicaprio said;" She just pressed her head against my leg. I said, "What are you doing, sweetheart?" And she kept clutching. There was just a sort of obsessed look in her eyes. She wasn't looking at me, though, just my leg. I looked at her and I sort of grabbed her face and said." hi, it's OK, no, you can get off my leg. It's fine." She kept saying, "No, no, no,no!" and I had to gently pry her hands off.

但是这个十四岁的女孩有她自己的想法。她相信只要她坚持不懈，他总有不注意的时候——她是不会轻易放弃这样一个不需要打斗的机会的。
迪卡普里奥说：“她把她的头压在我的腿上。”我说：“你在做什么，甜心？”然后她继续抓住，她的眼睛里有一种着迷的眼神，虽然她没有看着我，只是看着我的腿。”我捧着她的脸说:"没有关系，你可以放开我的腿，这样很好。”她说:"不不不不！”最后我不得不温和地把她的手松开。


今天先到这里吧，这件事情在有一次的访谈里也提起过，不知道还能不能找到视频。

弱弱的问一句
楼主是在中国买到的还是美国买到的

......虽然说事情开头结尾是这样...过程~真的~可能~大概~有夸张非真实的嫌疑...

是最新的传记么。。还是以前的？

楼楼继续！

He toped a list of the 50 Most Beautiful people in the world-an acccolade that made him groan:" You want to be remembered for your work rather than being hunk of the month."
Soon it became clear there was nowhere in the world he could go without somesone knowing his game.On an environmental pilgrimage in December 2003 to the deepest Amazonian rainforest to meet the Alto Xingu Indians of Brazil, with his then-girlfriend, the supermodel Gisele Bundchen, he was astounded when a tribesman instantly recognised him and began chattering excitedly about the "man of Titanic".
"It certainly follows me," he admitted after that encounter. "I" am not exaggerating. I've been to the Amazon, and people with no cloth on know about that film." Indeed, a few years later he was spooted in a dusty provincial viallage in Mozambique while filming Blood Diamond.

他位列全球最美50人之首，他为这个赞誉叹息道：“你希望人们记住你是因为你的工作，而不是因为成为月度魅力之星。”
很快，地球上已经没有什么地方他可以去并且不被认出来的地方了。2003年12月，他和他当时的超模女友吉赛尔邦辰，去往巴西亚马逊雨林最深处的环境漫游去会面中音兴谷河印第安人，当他被当地的一个土著人迅速认出并且兴奋地喃喃：“泰坦尼克号中的那个男人”，他震惊了。
类似的事情层出不穷，那次遭遇后他承认道。我并没有夸大事实。我去了亚马逊雨林，那里不穿衣服的人都知道那部电影（大船）。事实上，几年之后,当他在莫桑比克共和国一个落满灰尘的地方性小村庄拍摄血钻时，他又被认出了。

Leonardo has been a tabloid editor's dream celebrity. After Titanic it was widely accepted he had gone off the rails somewhat, and in June 1998, New York magazine ran a highly damaging expose on Leo's partying, which didn't put him in a good light. For the first time he started attracting attention for womanising and drinking. He made odd movie choices, industry experts insisted, when he might have been making millions, filling multiplexes as the romantic lead. Instead fil***ike The man In The Iron Mask and The Beach only made just over $150 million each-respectable hits by any other actor's standards but flops when judged next to the $1.8 billion raked in by James Cameron's epic.
