Matthew McConaughey has been able to dig deep as an actor thanks to his role as a father of three.
作為三個孩子的父親,馬修·麥康納能夠作為一名演員深入挖掘。
The Oscar winner is one of 11 stars featured on the cover of PEOPLE's 50th anniversary special issue. During his interview, McConaughey, 54, reflects on how his children — Levi, 15, Vida, 14, and Livingston, 11, whom he shares with wife Camila Alves McConaughey — have "made me a better actor."
這位奧斯卡獎得主是《人物》雜志50周年特刊封面上的11位明星之一。在采訪中,54歲的麥康納反思了他的孩子們——15歲的李維、14歲的維達和11歲的利文斯頓——是如何“讓我成為一名更好的演員”的。
"Having children I know has made me a better artist and has made me a better actor, because kids see things for the first time all the time. Their questions are innocent," he says. "I become a better storyteller because I have kids, meaning, I come home from work on something like True Detective, and my 4-year-old kid goes, 'What'd you do today?' I cannot tell them what the show's really about, it's not age-appropriate. So I have to go into a parable for them."
他說:“有了我認識的孩子,我成為了一名更好的藝術(shù)家,也讓我成為了更好的演員,因為孩子們總是第一次看到事物。他們的問題是無辜的。”。“我之所以成為一個更好的講故事者,是因為我有了孩子,也就是說,我下班回家做《真探》之類的節(jié)目,我4歲的孩子會說,‘你今天做了什么?’我無法告訴他們這部劇的真實內(nèi)容,它不適合年齡。所以我必須為他們講一個寓言。”
"And so I had to become a better storyteller to tell my kids about a good guy, a bad guy and a monster in this, to tell them the parable of the story I was in," McConaughey continues.
麥康納繼續(xù)說道:“所以我必須成為一個更好的故事講述者,告訴我的孩子關(guān)于這個故事中的好人、壞人和怪物,告訴他們我所經(jīng)歷的故事的寓言。”
According to McConaughey, as his three kids grew up he realized that he never worked on an age-appropriate project for them to watch.
據(jù)麥康納說,隨著他的三個孩子的成長,他意識到自己從未從事過適合他們觀看的項目。
"As you become a parent, what do you end up watching? You end up watching mostly what your kids are watching, and so I was like, 'Man, I've never been a part of an animated film,' and I like doing voice work," he details.
他詳細介紹道:“當你為人父母時,你最終會看什么?你最終主要看孩子們正在看的東西,所以我想,‘伙計,我從來沒有參演過動畫電影’,我喜歡配音。”
Eventually, McConaughey signed on to star in the 2016 animated film Sing, in which he worked opposite Taron Egerton, Scarlett Johansson and Tori Kelly — plus another star featured on the cover of PEOPLE's 50th anniversary special issue, Reese Witherspoon — as koala Buster Moon.
最終,麥康納簽約出演了2016年的動畫電影《歌唱》,在這部電影中,他與塔倫·埃格頓、斯嘉麗·約翰遜和托里·凱利演對手戲,此外,《人物》50周年特刊封面上的另一位明星瑞茜·威瑟斯彭飾演考拉巴斯特·穆恩。
"They thought it was really cool," McConaughey says of his three children. "I remember sitting at the premiere with them listening and going, 'Hey, that sounds like ...' and they had that moment where they look at the screen and audio, and then look at me sitting next to them and do the math. That was really cool to them, and that was something I did for them — and the kid in all of us."
“他們覺得這真的很酷,”麥康納談到他的三個孩子時說。“我記得我和他們一起坐在首映式上,聽著,然后說,‘嘿,聽起來像……’他們有一刻看著屏幕和音頻,然后看著我坐在他們旁邊做數(shù)學(xué)運算。這對他們來說真的很酷,這是我為他們和我們所有人的孩子做的事情。”
