舒伯特的Trio in E flat, Op. 100 在电影里被用地恰到好处。Barry随着轻柔的钢琴慢慢‘逼’近Lady Lyndon,直到最后小提琴悠扬地把他俩连在了一起。
不知道是不是我看到电影中最长的一部,但是一点也感觉不到冗长,欣赏了5-6遍是最好的证明。
教堂中的婚戒语是最正规的英语,如下以供学习:
Dearly beloved, we are gathered here in the sight of God, and in the face of this congregation, to join together this man and this woman in holy matrimony, which is an honorable estate, instituted by God in the time of man’s innocency, signifying unto us the mystical union that is between Christ and His church, and therefore is not by any to be enterprised lightly, or wantonly, to satisfy man’s carnal lusts and appetites, but reverently, discreetly, advisedly, soberly, and in the fear of God, duly considering the causes for which matrimony was ordained. First, it was ordained for the procreation of children. Secondly, as a remedy against sin, and to avoid fornication. Thirdly for the mutual society, help and comfort that the one ought to have of the other, both in prosperity and adversity, into which holy estate these persons present come now to be joined.
