当地时间4月16日,曾出演《哈利·波特》、《浴血黑帮》的英国女演员海伦·麦克洛瑞(Helen McCrory)因癌症不治在家中安详去世,享年52岁。
McCrory's death was announced by her husband, the actor Damian Lewis, on Friday.
麦克洛瑞去世的消息是由她的丈夫、演员戴米恩·刘易斯在4月23日宣布的。
"I'm heartbroken to announce that after a heroic battle with cancer, the beautiful and mighty woman that is Helen McCrory has died peacefully at home, surrounded by a wave of love from friends and family," Lewis tweeted.
刘易斯在推特上说:“我痛心地宣布,经过与癌症的英勇斗争,美丽而强大的海伦·麦克洛瑞在家中、在朋友和家人的爱的包围之中,平静地去世。”
Ms. McCrory became known to worldwide audiences through her 2009 role as Narcissa Malfoy, the mother of Harry’s nemesis, Draco Malfoy, in “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.”
麦克洛瑞女士通过2009年在《哈利·波特与混血王子》中扮演哈利的克星德拉科·马尔福的母亲纳西莎·马尔福一角而被全世界的观众所认识。
She played the role again in Parts 1 and 2 of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” the final films in the series. (She had in fact been slated for a larger role, as Bellatrix Lestrange, in the earlier “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” but had to withdraw after discovering she was pregnant; Helena Bonham Carter took over.)
她在《哈利·波特与死亡圣器》的第一和第二部分中再次扮演这个角色,这是该系列的最后两部电影。事实上,她曾被安排在早期的《哈利·波特与凤凰社》中扮演一个更大的角色,即贝拉特里克斯·莱斯特兰奇,但在发现自己怀孕后不得不退出电影制作;海伦娜·伯翰·卡特接替了她。
For years, the Malfoys were servants of the series’ villain, Lord Voldemort, but fled into hiding when he was seemingly killed on the night he attempted to murder Harry as an infant.
多年来,马尔福家族是该系列电影中大反派伏地魔的仆人,但当伏地魔在试图谋杀小哈利的那个晚上疑似被杀死时,他们一家人躲了起来。
To punish the Malfoys for not showing enough loyalty to him, Voldemort ordered Draco to kill Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore, leading to McCrory’s most famous scene in the “Potter” series where she asks Severus Snape, played by the late Alan Rickman, to kill Dumbledore if Draco is unable to do it.
为了惩罚马尔福家对他不够忠诚,伏地魔命令德拉科杀死霍格沃茨校长阿不思·邓布利多,导致麦克洛瑞在 "波特 "系列中最著名的一幕,她要求由已故艾伦·里克曼扮演的西弗勒斯-斯内普在德拉科无法做到的情况下杀死邓布利多。
In fact, her love for Draco far exceeds her loyalty to both her husband and Lord Voldemort, as showcased by her actions in the Battle for Hogwarts where she betrayed the Dark Lord by lying about Harry being dead。
事实上,她对德拉科的爱远远超过了她对丈夫和伏地魔的忠诚,她在霍格沃茨之战中的行为就证明了这一点,她背叛了黑魔王,谎称哈利已经死亡。
She did this because she knew her family would not find peace and safety in the grasp of Voldemort. Essentially, Harry's life was saved by the love of two mothers: his own, and Narcissa's love for Draco.
她这样做是因为她知道她的家人在伏地魔的控制下不会得到和平和安全。从本质上讲,哈利的生命是由两个母亲的爱所拯救的:母亲对自己的爱,以及纳西莎对德拉科的爱。
这个温柔慈爱、亦正亦邪的母亲角色,让海伦·麦克洛瑞给很多人都留下了深刻印象。
海伦的离世,也让全球的哈利波特粉丝们倍感不舍:马尔福没有妈妈了。《哈利·波特》原著作者JK Rowling称海伦的离开“让人心碎”。
马尔福少爷Tom Felton也发文悼念:“我从来没机会亲口告诉她,但她对我的人格塑造起了很大的作用……谢谢你照亮了前行的路。”
Helen Elizabeth McCrory was born on Aug. 17, 1968, in the Paddington neighborhood of London, the eldest of three children. Her father, Iain McCrory, was a diplomat; her mother, Ann (Morgans) McCrory, worked for the National Health Service.
海伦·伊丽莎白·麦克洛瑞于1968年8月17日出生在伦敦的帕丁顿街区,是三个孩子中的老大。她的父亲伊恩·麦克洛瑞是一名外交官;她的母亲安(摩根斯)麦克洛瑞为英国国家医疗服务体系工作。
During her childhood, her father’s work for the Foreign Service took the family to Tanzania, Norway, Madagascar and Paris.
在她的童年时期,她父亲为外交部门工作的经历让他们全家去到了坦桑尼亚、挪威、马达加斯加和巴黎。
“Dad tells me my first appearance onstage was dancing during an official visit by the French president,” Ms. McCrory said in a 2014 interview with The Times of London. “I’m pretty sure the idea of being an actress came to me around that time. Every evening at the house was like a little concert.”
“爸爸告诉我,我第一次登台是在法国总统的一次正式来访中跳舞。”麦克洛瑞女士在2014年接受《伦敦时报》采访时说,“我非常确定,成为一名演员的想法就是在那个时候产生的。在家里的每个晚上都像是一场小型音乐会。”
In her teens she was sent back to England, to the Queenswood School for Girls in Hertfordshire. She began to act while there and, after graduating, spent a year traveling around Italy before being accepted at the Drama Center London.
在她十几岁的时候,她被送回英国,进入赫特福德郡的昆斯伍德女子学校。她在那里开始表演生涯,毕业后花了一年时间在意大利旅行,然后被伦敦戏剧中心录取。
Being an actress “was the only thing I wanted to be,” she told The Times of London in 2017, adding that she had been “incredibly lucky” to be quickly given major roles.
当一名演员,“是我唯一想做的事情。”她在2017年告诉《伦敦时报》,并补充说,她“非常幸运”,很快就得到了主要角色。
She was good at playing villains — the evil alien Rosanna Calvierri in an episode of “Doctor Who,” the spiritualist Evelyn Poole in the series “Penny Dreadful” and, perhaps most notably, Polly Gray, the aunt of the gang boss Tommy Shelby, in the period crime drama “Peaky Blinders,” a role she played for its entire five-season run, from 2013 to 2019.
她擅长扮演反派——在《神秘博士》的一集中扮演邪恶的外星人罗珊娜,在《低俗怪谈》系列中扮演灵媒伊芙琳·普尔,也许最值得一提的是,在时代犯罪剧《浴血黑帮》中扮演黑帮老大汤米·谢尔比的姨妈波莉·格雷,她于2013年至2019年在五季中都扮演这一角色。
海伦·麦克洛瑞的离世,最受打击的莫过于她的丈夫——热播美剧《国土安全》(Homeland)男主角戴米恩·路易斯(Damian Lewis)。
戴米恩·路易斯毕业于伊顿公学(Eton College),2012年,凭借悬疑剧《国土安全》获得艾美奖最佳男主角奖和金球奖最佳男主角奖,并于2013年获得第70届金球奖电视类剧情类最佳男主角。2013年3月20日,获得伦敦荣誉奖。
Ms. McCrory met Mr. Lewis in 2003, when they were both appearing in Joanna Laurens’s “Five Gold Rings” at the Almeida Theater in London.
麦克洛瑞在2003年认识了路易斯,当时他们都在伦敦的阿尔梅达剧院出演乔安娜·劳伦斯的《五只金戒指》。
“Damian’s naughty, and I’ve always loved my naughty boys,” she said last year on the BBC 4 radio program “Desert Island Discs.”
她去年在英国广播公司第四频道的广播节目《荒岛唱片》中说:“戴米恩很淘气,而我一直喜欢我的淘气男孩。”
They had two children, Manon in 2006 and Gulliver in 2007, and married in 2007.
他们有两个孩子,2006年出生的玛侬和2007年出生的格列佛。他们二人在2007年结婚。
Although Mr. Lewis also found fame, on the television series “Homeland” and “Billions,” they maintained a low-key life in London.
虽然路易斯先生也在电视剧《国土安全》和《亿万》中名气上涨,但他们在伦敦保持着低调的生活。
Last year, Ms. McCrory and Mr. Lewis spearheaded a fund-raising effort to provide meals for members of the National Health staff amid the coronavirus pandemic. Their work led to donations of close to £1 million (about $1.4 million) to the Feed NHS Scheme.
去年,麦克洛瑞和路易斯带头进行了一次筹款活动,在新冠疫情期间为国家卫生工作人员提供餐食。加上他们的捐款,国家医疗服务体系接受的捐款接近100万英镑(约140万美元)。
Just a month ago, on March 12, she appeared with Mr. Lewis on ITV’s “Good Morning Britain” to discuss the project.
就在一个月前,即3月12日,她与路易斯一起出现在ITV的《早安英国》节目中讨论该项目。
并不知情的主持人在直播中询问麦克洛瑞是否有恙:“你的声音听起来有点沙哑,是不是喉咙痛?” 麦克洛瑞则开玩笑回应:“我嗓子没事,都是被孩子们给累的!”
在生命的最后时刻,麦克洛瑞留给世界的依然是她的爱与善良。
路易斯在给妻子的悼文中这样写道:
"She's shown no fear, no bitterness, no self-pity, only armed us with the courage to go on and insisted that no one be sad, because she is happy...She's been a meteor in our life."
"她没有表现出恐惧,没有痛苦,没有自怜,只是用勇气来武装我们,让我们继续前进,并坚持不让任何人伤心,因为她是幸福的...我们生命中的一颗流星。"
但即使流星划过天际的时间再短,它也足以照亮一片暗夜。
R.I.P
永远的Helen McCrory
