影片对白

Ben: I drove - I drove Mrs. Robinson home. She wanted me to drive her home so I - drove her home.

Mr. Robinson: Swell. I appreciate it.

Ben: She's upstairs. She wanted me to wait down here till you got home.

Mr. Robinson: Standing guard over the old castle, are you?

Ben: Yes, sir.

Mr. Robinson: Here. Congratulations! It looks like you need a refill.

Ben: Oh no. I've got to go.

Mr. Robinson: Is anything wrong? You look a little shaken up.

Ben: Oh no. No - I'm just - I'm just a little worried about my future. I'm a little upset about my future.

Mr. Robinson: Come on. Let's have a nightcap together. Scotch?

Ben: Bourbon. 

Mr. Robinson: Ben - how old are you now?

Ben: Twenty. I'll be twenty-one next week.

Mr. Robinson: That's a hell of a good age to be.

Ben: Thank you. Thank you very much.

Mr. Robinson: I wish I was that age again. Because, Ben -

Ben: Sir?

Mr. Robinson: You'll never be young again.

Ben: I know.

Mr. Robinson: Ben, can I say something to you?

Ben: What?

Mr. Robinson: How long have we known each other now? How long have you and I known each other? How long have your Dad and I been partners?

Ben: Quite a while.

Mr. Robinson: I've watched you grow up, Ben.

Ben: Yes, sir.

Mr. Robinson: In many ways I feel as though you were my own son.

Ben: Thank you.

Mr. Robinson: So I hope you won't mind my giving you a friendly piece of advice.

Ben: I'd like to hear it.

Mr. Robinson: Ben - I think - I think you ought to be taking it a little easier right now than you seem to be. Sow a few wild oats. Take things as they come. Have a good time with the girls and so forth.

Mrs. Robinson: Don't get up.

Mr. Robinson: I was just telling Ben here that he ought to sow a few wild oats. Have a good time while he can. You think that's sound advice?

Mrs. Robinson: Yes, I do.

Ben: I've got to go.

Mr. Robinson: You have yourself a few flings this summer. I bet you're quite a ladies' man.

Ben: Oh no.

Mr. Robinson: What? You look to me like the kind of guy who has to fight them off. (to Mrs. Robinson) And doesn't he look to you like the kind of guy who has to fight them off?

Mrs. Robinson: Yes, he does.

例如:He looked shaken up when he saw you. 他看到你的时候非常惶恐。
