这部电影在看第一遍的时候，将精力大致集中在了台词文本上，再看第二遍的时候，才更多地关注剧情、构图、场景、心理活动等内容。

或许是因为男女思维方式不同地原因，发现在捕捉演员情感细微之处，女导演所呈现出来的画面往往更加细腻，自然。尤其是像这种文本性又很强的女同性恋片，它的一字一句，每个画面所对应的电影镜头或许都只是冰山一角。而导演要做的就是让观众透过画面的冰山一角窥探其全貌。

在我看来，本片的导演恰恰做到了这点。

怀着对这部电影的喜爱之情，以及对文本台词的浓厚兴趣，遂将阿比盖尔日记中的台词整理下来。

Tuesday, January, 1st, 1856

Fair and very cold.This morning,ice in our bedroom for the first time all winter.

收到来信

Abigail,Abigail,Abigail.I’m sorry that all I have to send you is this letter, and I’m sorry for all that a letter cannot be.Even the best letter is just a little bit of someone.I’m sorry I never dot to say goodbye,and I’m sorry that we seem to have traded one sort of misery for another.It turns out that houses deep in the backwoods always seem to be awful and unnatural in their loneliness.If there were only a ruined abbey around there with bats in it,the view would be pertect.Our roof is ramshackle and sheds water nicely in dry weather,but we have to spread milk pans around the floor when it rains.Still,outside the kitchen,there are already anemones and heart’s-ease,and even prettier flowers which my stupidity keeps me from naming for you.I believe I’ve enjoyed myself less these last few weeks than any other female who ever lived.During what little time I have to my self,Finney reads aloud instructions for wives from the Old Testament.But when it comes to the Bible,I have to say that there are a lot of passages he may know word for word,but which haven’t touched his heart.I can’t account for his state of mind except to say that my company must be intensely disagreeable to him.And if that’s the case,I’m sorry for it.

What’s to become of the thousands of our sex,scattered out in the wilderness,and obliged to tax our strengths?I felt as if,at that selfsame hour when our prospects were brightest,that in the dim distance a black shadow approached.And yet still,imagine the happiest for us of the sort in which who two families previously at daggers drawn are miraculously brought together on love’s account.It is your face I bear trough the night.It is to you I devote a dreaming space before I turn myself to sleep,but there is no sleep.It’s as if within me everything clamors for air,and I think if it’s like this now,what will it be like later?I send you what love and support I can.I send you all my heart’s hopes.Abigail.

Please know that force alone couldn’t have gotten me here to a place like this.I was told I had to act in support of interest,happiness and the reputation of someone I once loved.

（请记住，只靠蛮力是不可能把我带到这样的地方来的.我被告知我必须采取行动来维护.我曾经爱过的人的利益，幸福和名誉）

As far as I can figure,we’re now still only about 85miles apart.But of course,people like us don’t go on long visits.

（据我所知，我们现在距离只有85英里,但是当然，像我们这样的人是不能出远门的）

Dyer refused first to permit my departure,and then to accompany me,and only caught up to the cart at the end of our property and climbed aboard.We were the very picture of anguish,rattling along side by side .

（戴尔先是拒绝我的离开，然后跟着我，追上了马车，我们用尽钱财，爬上了船.我们就是痛苦的真实写照，肩并着肩摇摇晃晃）

The night was fair and warm with the appearance of a coming rain.A shower.

（那天天气晴朗，暖和，似乎要下雨了.下的是阵雨）

It’s so hard to write about hoe much I want to thank you,but I have to set start somewhere.Abigail...I want to tell you that being with you,even alone,has been like being a part of the biggest and most spacious community I could ever imagine.

（很难写出我有多么感谢你，但我必须开个头,阿比盖尔...我想告诉你，跟你在一起，即使是一个人，也像是成为了我能想象到的最大最宽敞的社区一员）

I feel closer to you than I would a sister since everything amazing that I feel.I chose to feel.

（我和你比和亲姐妹还要亲，因为我感受到了那些美妙的事物.我选择去感受）

And do you know what memory it is that I most cherish?

（你知道我最珍贵的回忆是什么吗）

It’s of you turning to me with that smile you gave me，once you realized that you were loved.

（是你意识到我爱你时你转向我报之以微笑）

I have no way of knowing what is to come,but I do know that all of the trust.and care and courage we shared that will all shine on us,and protect us.You are my city of joy.

（我无法知道将会发生什么，但我知道，我们彼此之间的,相互信任，相互关心，相互鼓励，都会照耀我们，保护我们）

You are my city of joy.You are my city of joy.

（你是我的欢乐之城，你是我的欢乐之城）

Sunday, August,31st

Weather very hot and sunny.I cleaned out the shed,which was full of rusty and dusty rubbish.

（天气炎热，阳光明媚，我把棚子打扫干净了，那里到处都是生锈的，满是灰尘的垃圾）

Washed the window,and preserved apples for the winter.Fourteen dollars from the sale of our milk and butter.

（擦洗过窗户，把苹果封起来过冬，我们的牛奶的=和黄油卖出去14美元）

I have cut my hand with a paring knife.I console myself with the conviction that someday in the future when Dyer is forced to travel to Syracuse for feed or supplies,I will join him,and take his rifle and go to Skaneateles and kill Finney where he sits.

（我的手被削皮刀割伤了，我以坚定的信念安慰自己如果未来某一天戴尔不得不前往锡拉库扎寻找食物和生活用品，我会和他一起带着他的步枪去斯卡尼阿特勒斯杀了芬尼）

Dyer has been at work on the barn.Each day,we enact our separation.Sometimes after it gets dark,we walk over the hills across our upper fields ,for the wide,wide view.

（戴尔一直在谷仓工作，每一天，我们之间的隔阂都在扩大，有时天黑以后，我们翻山越岭，穿过高地，为了有广阔的视野）

And Dyer tries to imagine us as we were,while I try to imagine Tallie,and that cordial and accepting home that existed solely in our dreams.

（戴尔试图想象我们还是原来的样子，但我想着泰莉，和那种亲切又包容的家庭，可惜这一切只存在于我们的梦中）

I imagine Tallie and Nellie somewhere together.and Nellie running her brush through Tallie’s hair.

（我想象着某个地方，泰莉和内莉在一起，内莉用梳子梳着泰莉的头发）

I imagine banishing forever those sentiments of my own that she chastened and refined.

（我想象着永远放逐那些由她切磋琢磨而成的我的情感）

I imagine resolving to do what I can for Dyer.

（我想象着我下定决心要为戴尔尽我所能）

And I imagine continuing to write in this ledger,here,as though this was my life.

（我想象着继续在这本账簿上写下去，在这里，好像这就是我的生活）

As though my life was not elsewhere.

（好像我的生活不在别处）

按理来说这部剧的阵容不算差。

老戏骨陈建斌，演技自然没话说，刚刚完结的《三叉戟》口碑收视双丰收，还是金马影帝，近几年没有作品低于7分。

而潘粤明近年风头正劲，从《白夜追凶》开始迎来了事业第二春。

算上客串的，今年刚过去一半，潘老师已经有五部剧开播了，这月均一部的速度着实让人印象深刻。

丰收的喜悦也迅速地反应在他持续增加的体重上。

再加上在《鹤唳华亭》里表现颇为亮眼的李一桐。

一个个看似靠谱的熟脸，但是万万没想到最后加在一起的效果让人大失所望。

而在国产电视剧稍见起色的当下，陈建斌和潘粤明出现在这样的剧里，简直让观众以为他俩是在搞行为艺术……

故事也是从一个略显荒诞的梦境开始的。
