少年红人 第3期

One of the golden rules of film directing is to avoid working with children and animals. It is also a rule which is frequently ignored. Child actors have always been popular with audiences and child stars have always been a favourite of tabloids and gossip rags. They used to be the kids other kids wanted to be, and then became the adults that nowould want to be. Handling the success and fame that comes with being a showbiz big shot is never easy and is especially difficult when you have not yet gone through puberty. Despite all the media focus on the child stars who went bad, not all of them were complete failures. This month, Insight Entertainment takes a look at four of the most famous young guns in Hollywood's history.

拍摄电影的黄金法则之一就是不要与儿童和动物一起工作。但这也是一条经常受到忽略的原则。儿童演员总会受到观众的欢迎，而童星总是受到小报和八卦报纸的追捧。他们常常是在童年时就成为了其他孩子都想成为的样子，但随后又在成年后变成了其他成人都不想成为的样子。成为演艺界大牌后，成功和名誉随之而来，处理这些问题绝非易事，而如若你还尚未成年，那处理起来就更加困难了。尽管所有媒体的关注点都落在了变质童星的身上，但他们并非全部都归于彻底的失败。本月，《追星基地》就来关注一下好莱坞历史上最为知名的少壮派明星中的四个人。

Shirley Temple秀兰・邓波儿

The most famous child actress ever, Temple was No.1 at the box office throughout the later half of the 1930's. Born in 1928, she could dance, sing and act at the age of four. Audiences during the depression era in America were cheered by her dimples and curls. She also saved Fox from bankruptcy during those difficult times. Her most famous movie was Bright Eyes in which she sang the song most associated with her; Good Ship Lollipop. She was the first actress to ever have a doll made in her image. As Temple entered her teens her performances began to prove that she could actually play serious roles too. But audiences weren't interested in a grown up Shirley Temple and her movies started to flop. In the 1960's she abandoned show business completely and began a very successful diplomatic career serving as the U.S. ambassador to the U.N., Ghana and Czechoslovakia.

邓波儿是有史以来最知名的儿童演员，她的票房成绩在20世纪30年代后半期一直雄居首位。生于1928年的她，在4岁时就能跳舞、唱歌和表演了。她的酒窝和卷发使美国大萧条时期的观众感到了快乐。她还使福克斯公司在那个困难时期里免于破产。她最著名的电影是《亮眼睛》，片中她唱了一首她最为人知晓的歌曲――《好船棒棒糖号》。她是有史以来第一个使自己的形象被制成洋娃娃的女演员。当邓波儿长到十多岁时，她的表演证明了她实际上亦可以出演严肃的角色。但是观众对长大成人的秀兰・邓波儿不再感兴趣，于是她的电影事业开始下滑。在20世纪60年代，她从演艺界全身而退，开始了一个极其成功的外交生涯，先后担任了美国驻联合国、加纳和捷克斯洛伐克的大使。

Drew Barrymore德鲁・巴里摩尔

Barrymore was born in 1975 to a showbiz family. Her first movie role came in 1979 in Altered States but it was at age seven that she got her big break in E.T. Her career soared until the age of nine when things started to go bad, however. Her mother would take her along to Hollywood parties and she consequently developed an alcohol and drug abuse problem. After an unsuccessful suicide attempt she was sent into rehab and emerged at the age of 14. She decided to put her dark days behind her and continue her acting career. However, because of her reputation as a drug addict she found it hard to get roles until the mid-nineties. She is now once again one of the most bankable stars in Hollywood and even owns her own production company. "Success is the best revenge in the world," she said. "And I'm back."

巴里摩尔在1975年生于一个演艺世家。她的第一个银幕角色出现在1979年的电影《交替状态》中，但直到7岁，她才在电影《ET.外星人》中取得重大突破。然而，她事业的突飞猛进只持续到9岁，随后状况开始恶化。她的妈妈那时常会带她去参加好莱坞的派对，因此她染上了酗酒和滥用的恶习。在自杀未遂后，她被送进了康复中心，并于14岁时出院。她决定忘记那些不愉快的日子，继续她的演艺事业。但由于自己吸毒成瘾的名声在外，90年代中期以前，她都难以得到片约。现在，她再次成为了好莱坞最有票房保证的明星之一，甚至还拥有一家自己的制片公司。“成功是世界上最好的报复手段，”她说。“而我回来了。”

Macaulay Culkin麦考利・卡尔金

Culkin became the highest paid child actor when, aged ten, he starred in the 1990 blockbuster, Home Alone. He had begun his movie career three years before but it was this movie and its sequel that made him one of the richest kids in the world. As is the case with many child stars, as Culkin matured and lost his cute boyish looks, audiences became less and less attracted to him. After a series of flops he retired from the entertainment industry at the age of 14. In 1995 his parents separated and a legal battle for control of Macaulay's $17 million dollar fortune ensued. In 2001 he made a comeback when he appeared on stage and went on to star in a few low-key films. His last major media appearance was when he was arrested for possession of narcotics in September, 2004.

卡尔金在10岁时出演了1990年的巨片《小鬼当家》，成为片酬最高的儿童演员。而三年之前他就已经触电，但是直到出演了这部电影及其续集后，他才成为世界上最富有的孩子之一。正如许多童星的境遇一样，卡尔金长大成人并不再拥有那张可爱的娃娃脸，而他的观众缘也随之每况愈下。在接二连三的受挫之后，他在14岁时退出了娱乐界。1995年，他的父母分居，并随后就麦考利1700万美元的财产支配问题打起了官司。他于2001年重登舞台，并出演了几部不知名的电影，从此复出。而他最近的一次重要媒体曝光是在2004年9月，那时他因持有麻醉品而被捕。

Daniel Radcliffe丹尼尔・拉德克里夫

Born in 1989, Radcliffe expressed a desire to perform at the age of five. Initially his parents discouraged him but gradually gave in when they realized that he was determined to become an actor. He landed a TV role at the age of ten and made his film debut in the 2001 British film, The Tailor of Panama. Success came big when he started playing the lead role in the Harry Potter films and became known to the world as Harry Potter. These movies also made him the second wealthiest teenager in Britain after Prince Harry Windsor. Despite being one of the world's most recognizable people, Radcliffe leads a relatively normal life, attending school in London and hanging out with his friends.

生于1989年的拉德克里夫在5岁时就显露出表演的欲望。起初，他的父母加以阻止，但当他们认识到他就是想成为一名演员时，便逐渐做出了让步。他10岁时在一部电视作品中出演了一个角色，并于2001年参演了英国电影《巴拿马裁缝》，完成了他的电影处女作。而他在主演了《哈利・波特》系列电影后大获成功，以哈利・波特的形象为世人所知。这几部电影还使他成为英国第二富有的少年，仅次于哈里・温莎王子。虽然拉德克里夫是世界上最知名的人物之一，但他还是过着一种相对正常的生活――在伦敦上学，和朋友外出玩耍。
