Q：Were you poking yourself when “Water for Elephants” was contracted to become a movie, and when some little actors by the names of Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon agreed to be in it?
听说自己的书要被拍成电影了，而且是罗伯特·帕丁森和瑞茜·威瑟斯彭来主演的时候，有没有掐自己一下？
A：I have to stop and pause and knock on wood right now. The closer it comes to being real, the more superstitious I get. It’s Hollywood. It can all go poof, still. Things are looking as good as they can.
我必须停下，等着求神保佑它能成真。它越是快要变成现实，我就变的越迷信。这是好莱坞呀。一切都有可能变成泡影的。事情看起来相当好。


Q: Are you involved with the project at all?
你有没有参与其中？
A: They’re letting us have the whole family in it as a cameo. I think we’re all going to be on in the midway or something. My kids are really excited about that, and I am, too, because that sounds like so much fun. I asked (the producers), and they said sure. So we’ll be in the background in a restaurant or on the midway and be a fast thing (on screen), but we’ll know where it is and the kids will be excited.
他们会让我们全家友情客串，我们可能会在中间出现。我的孩子们很兴奋，我也是，因为听起来太有意思了。我问过制片人，他们说当然了。我们可能会在餐厅里当背景，或者在电影中很快过场，但我们会知道到底在哪儿拍，我的孩子们会很兴奋的。
