最浪漫求婚!全家出演《傲慢與偏見》

When Bethany Albert was home at her parents’ house in Tacoma, Wash. for the holidays, she came home on Christmas Eve to a surprise.

寶芬妮·艾爾伯特回到華盛頓州塔科馬港市與父母一同慶祝圣誕節(jié)。在圣誕前夜，她收到了一份驚喜。

“I walked in the house, not expecting my sister to seize me and start exclaiming that Mr. Bingley had returned to Netherfield at last.”

“我走進(jìn)家門，沒想到我的妹妹緊緊抓住我的手，告訴我賓格利先生終于回到內(nèi)瑟菲爾德莊園了。”

While another sister took photographs, a third sister began putting Bethany into a Regency dress. Bethany elaborated that her mother sewed five Regency dresses in the span of two weeks.

一個(gè)妹妹為寶芬妮拍照，另一個(gè)妹妹為寶芬妮穿上了攝政風(fēng)格的高腰裙。寶芬妮說，她的母親在兩周的時(shí)間內(nèi)縫制了五條高腰裙。

David Slater, Bethany’s friend of five years and boyfriend of ten months, was hiding in a closet nearby, dressed as Mr. Darcy. “We met swing dancing at the University of Washington.”

男朋友大衛(wèi)·萊斯勒裝扮成達(dá)西先生的樣子藏在近處的一個(gè)衣柜里。大衛(wèi)和寶芬妮做了5年的朋友，交往了10個(gè)月。“我們是在華盛頓大學(xué)的搖擺舞會(huì)上認(rèn)識的。”

“One by one more and more family members joined the scenes. David took the script directly from the text of the book. My family did rehearsals in secret.”

“家人們紛紛參加這場演出。大衛(wèi)完全按照書中的情節(jié)編寫了劇本，我的家人還悄悄的排練過。”

Bethany’s family recreated half an hour of scenes from Pride and Prejudice.

寶芬妮的家人按照《傲慢與偏見》中的情節(jié)，進(jìn)行了一場半小時(shí)之久的表演。

Eventually, Bethany, David, and their family moved outside the house.

最后，寶芬妮、大衛(wèi)和家人們一起來到屋外。

And her Mr. Darcy proposed to his Lizzie in her neighbor’s backyard.

“達(dá)西先生”在鄰家的后院里向“莉茲”求婚了。

“Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorite books. I loved that it involved family; my sisters, parents, his sister, brother-in-law, nieces… It was so special to interact with them and exchange knowing smiles during the production.”

“《傲慢與偏見》是我最喜愛的書之一。我喜歡這本書中對家庭成員的描繪;我的姐妹，雙親，大衛(wèi)的姐妹和妹夫，侄子……和家人們一起演出這一幕，與他們心有靈犀的相視而笑，這種感覺非常溫暖。”
