And so the nostalgia machine grinds on(缓慢而持续地进行), dragging another pop culture corpse(尸体) back into the light: yes, it’s the return of Ali G. Respeck(尊重(阿里·G的口头禅)).
于是,怀旧机器继续运转,将又一具流行文化的“尸体”拖回聚光灯下:没错,阿里·G回来了。Respeck。
Sacha Baron Cohen’s skull-cap-wearing, “rudebwoy(粗野男孩(牙买加俚语))” wankster(装腔作势的混混) is staging a comeback(复出,卷土重来) with Ali G: Who Iz I?. The new film, premiering(首映,首次公演) next month, is a mockumentary(伪纪录片) that sees the character starting a family with long-term companion Julie (thinking his approach to fatherhood will be “absent”) and embracing TikTok, all while donning new fake dreads(脏辫) and a rastacap(拉斯特法里帽).
萨莎·拜伦·科恩塑造的那个头戴小圆帽、满口“rudebwoy”的“混混”正在凭借《阿里·G:我是谁?》复出。这部下月首映的新片是一部伪纪录片,片中阿里·G与长期伴侣朱莉组建家庭(他认为自己做父亲的方式将是“缺席”),并拥抱TikTok,同时还戴上了新的假脏辫和拉斯特法里帽。
It’s taken little time for this revival to enter Britain’s terminal(无休止的,晚期的) “ARE U OFFENDED, SNOWFLAKE?” culture-war cycle. The Telegraph’s chief film critic, Robbie Collin, wrote that Ali G would save us from comedy’s offence police(冒犯警察,指监管言论的人): “We need a good dose of this sort of puerile(幼稚的,孩子气的) needling(刺激,激将) more than ever.” And now there is a pressure campaign(施压运动) asking cinemas not to screen Baron Cohen’s “racist caricature”, which has accrued(累积,积累) more than 46,000 signatures.
这次复出很快就卷入了英国无休止的“你被冒犯了吗,雪花?”文化战争循环。《每日电讯报》首席影评人罗比·科林写道,阿里·G将把我们从喜剧的“冒犯警察”手中拯救出来:“我们比以往任何时候都更需要这种幼稚的挑衅。”而现在,一场施压运动要求影院不要放映拜伦·科恩的“种族主义漫画”,该运动已征集到超过4.6万个签名。
