自打Cristina和Burke在一起,Burke就深得编剧宠爱,锋芒还在,只是越来越完美:他除了能拿手术刀,竟还烧得一手好饭而且十分乐意为喜欢的女人下厨;他的房间一尘不染,用十进法整理书籍,听古典音乐,并有相当好的品味,素来克制而理性,懂得努力与勤奋去争取可见的目标,可以逻辑清晰地走下一步以及计划未来。这种认真,专一,踏实的秉性在Cristina出现在他的计划之中后,被编剧尽情发挥,以致可以包容Cristina慢慢暴露的野心,自私,乖张,脆弱。表面看来,Cristina的自我中心,压迫式的自我要求和进取,对周遭关系都淡而化之的处理,做着最符合世俗理性的选择,常常显得并不是那么可爱,她的可爱之处来自于她所做的改变,绝不为难自己,绝不违心,小心越过自己的原则,还是最理性的选择,却足够让人发现她感动人的小女人情绪,她仍旧保有自己的大志和小心机,那些不可爱不温柔也是真实的——幸好是真实的,让这段感情不像只存在于真空里。毕竟没有两颗心是毫无隙缝,紧紧相连的。我非常喜欢编剧的诠释,她简直说出了一切我想说的。是的,在Burke中枪手术的时候,Cristina走开了,她还做不到背后支持的默默隐忍的小女人: You just hate Cristina. You hate her when she walks away from Burke after seeing that he know has a hand tremor. And then you see her give that speech to the Chief and you see the struggle. Her struggle to suppress all of her humanity in pursuit of perfection. And in my mind, what we realize is that she is not cold. She is terrified. Scared that if she lets her emotions out, they will overtake her and she will be hurt. And you can’t hate her. Because it’s so incredibly human and understandable. There’s that moment when Burke tells Cristina that he won’t bear a grudge and it’s so sad because he means it. He doesn’t believe she has it in her to stay by his side. And then Denny dies and Cristina watches Izzie grieving and realizes that she has no other option but to go to Burke and cover his hand with her own. Because you can lose someone if you’re not careful.
然后我们便看到了她止不住眼泪地说:Don't ever die! 更大的波折是她决定told on attending, on her boyfriend.完美的Burke忍不住大发雷霆,这难道不是他本来想去做的事情,他还曾责怪是Cristina dragged him across the line.唉……人心的期艾实在太诡异莫测,She told on him because she thought it was the right thing to do. But Burke disagrees. He feels like he was going to handle the situation and that Cristina just got ahead of him,and that by doing so, she betrayed him. The relationship may be at an impasse, but this is her Preston Burke, and she’s sticking by him.
而最最最打动我的还是Burke对Cristina的OR Vow:you are my partner, my lover, my very best friend.为这句话做注脚的动人的场景实在太多太多了:
可以是Cristina拉Burke去对付调来的Resident Sydney,Burke照做了然后叫她去道歉:You crossed the line. You made me cross the line. That’s not your fault. It’s mine. I’m your teacher. I’m supposed to be. But you came to me as your boyfriend and I responded that way (S215);
可以是Burke冲进Cristina的公寓有些气急败坏的大嚷嚷:I am Preston Burke, a widely renowned cardiothoracic surgeon. I am...a professional. And more than that, I'm a good and kind person. I am a person that cleans up behind myself. I am a person that cooks well. And you? You are an unbelievable slob, a slovenly, angry intern. I am Preston Burke, and you are the most competitive, most guarded, most stubborn, most challenging person I have ever met, and I love you.
可以是Cristina对中枪的Burke连珠炮似地耳语:Okay that was my best supportive girlfriend and you kind of ruined it with medicine. Okay.(S226)
也可以是她为击退EX将指甲染得五颜六色,甚至是play the part of helpless girl to build up a grown man's ego.并且肯定而坚定地说自己没有compromise myself. 很难想象 I've learned that sometimes you have to think about other people 是从那个only concern for excellence的Cristina的嘴巴里说出来的呀,看了真让人唏嘘和热泪眼眶的。她真的是很爱很爱这个男人啊!(S320)
也可以是Burke最后莫名其妙的逃婚,编剧给出的还不算太糟糕的说辞:I'm up there waiting for you to come down the aisle, and I knew you don't want to come. I know you don't want to come but that you'll come anyway because you love me. And if I loved you...if I loved you, not the woman that I'm trying to make you be, not the woman that I hope you'll become, but you...if I did...I wouldn't be up there waiting for you. I would be letting you go. (S325)他真的是很爱很爱这个女人啊!我也爱啊~~~~
我比较吃不消的是编剧非让这三人走先扬后仰的路线,一开始的形象都相当正面:Meredith是天资出众,自强不息的灰姑娘;Derek是拯救灰姑娘的白马王子;Izzie是心肠贼好,身材贼棒,努力打拼的白天鹅;慢慢的狐狸尾巴就出来了:Meredith内心dark and twist,很爱玩一夜情;Derek是暧昧高手,多情又优柔寡断,恨不得两只船一直踏下去;Izzie自遇上Denny以后就没有正常过,基本上是在自废武功。电视剧里面那种情感丰富的感性的(emotional and sensitive)的角色相对比较受欢迎,也可以获得更好的情节发展,可我偏偏不喜欢。在我的字典里面,Emotional和Sensative的人是弱者,沉溺于自己的世界和情感,却往往不能正确地理解和看待自己。The people who suffer the most are those who don't know what they want.(S0321)将追求寄托于清晰可见的目标是摆脱无止境自我拷问的好方法。而且要坚定,哪怕是学着变得冷漠,Cristina缺乏的那一点点不顾一切的勇气和经验是恰到好处的,这是自我强大的技巧。在Meredith,Derek 以及Izzie身上我却丝毫看不到这些,无怪乎个个mess up their life~嗯,我相当不喜欢呀~可为什么相似度是100%啦?!再一次,撞墙~吐血~泪奔~
啧啧,这两个男人艳福不浅。Alex外冷内热,George外热内也热~看来能够sleep around(还不是ONS的性质哦)的必要条件是:内心够火热。善于给予他人温暖。Sex是一个比较极端的方式,George想以此抚慰Meredith,Alex也用这样的方式对待了Addison,不是这样的方式荒唐而是这样的行为略显幼稚。他们就好像那种嘴上没毛办事不牢的愣头青,和自己喜欢的女人睡过,和自己不喜欢的女人也睡了,还是什么都给不了。糟糕的是去和不知道什么感觉的女人睡了一觉,醒来世界如常,这感觉依然是理不出个头绪来,幸好米国人够洒脱够放得开,否则都是一段段活生生的孽债啊!有时候呀~还真是不能怪女人,这世界上弱男人太多了太多了,还都是一些不知道自己想要什么的弱男人。他们会被人爱上,也准备好了十足的真心,就是不知道怎么地就mess up their life了~指望个个都是Burke还真是不现实呀。
