"绅士版"邦德：印度民众调侃当局删减《007幽灵党》吻戏
'Sanskari' James Bond: Indians ridicule cuts to Spectre kisses
A James Bond who touches M's feet to seek blessings before setting out for a mission? One who only shakes (not stirs) his buttermilk? You had better believe it.
执行任务前,詹姆斯·邦德先要摸M的脚祈求保佑？他喝牛奶时是用摇的而不是用搅的？难以置信吧.
Please meet the cleaned up, chaste, well behaved James Bond - trending in India as #SanskariJamesBond - an ironic hashtag prompted by a censor board decision to "cut short" Daniel Craig's kissing scenes in the movie Spectre, which releases in India on Thursday.
来看看这位整洁干净、道德高尚、举止文雅的詹姆斯·邦德——他就是最近印度热点话题"绅士詹姆斯·邦德"的主人公.《007幽灵党》于周四在印度上映,因当地审查委员会删减影片中丹尼尔·克雷格吻戏的举动,公众发起了这样的讽刺标签.
That's right. James Bond in his current avatar, simply kisses too much for the tastes of the Indian censor board, and so they have been reduced in length.
可不是嘛,对审查委员会来说,目前的詹姆斯·邦德的确吻戏过多,所以才遭遇大幅度删减.
Ashoke Pandit, a member of the censor board confirmed that the kissing scenes had been cut, but insisted it was a decision taken in his "personal capacity" by India's controversial censor board head Pahlaj Nihalani.
阿肖克·潘迪特是电影审查委员之一,他证实了《007》吻戏遭删减.他坚称,该决定是由审查委员会主席帕赫拉杰·尼哈拉尼本人作出的.审查委员会在印度一直颇受争议.
"Yes, this decision [to cut kissing scenes] was taken by Pahlaj Nihalani. He does these kind of things. Other shots have also been cut along with the kissing scene. This seems like a joke. If you do this to a James Bond film, then it's shameful," he told BBC Hindi.
潘迪特在接受BBC印地语台采访时说："是的,这个决定（删减亲热场面）是帕赫拉杰·尼哈拉尼作出的.这些事情都由他决定.除了吻戏,也有其它场景被删减.这看起来像个笑话.对于詹姆斯·邦德系电影来说,这样做挺让人丢脸的."
Mr Nihalani was appointed to the post in January, days after the previous head of the board Leela Samson resigned amid controversy over clearance to the film Messenger of God, citing "interference and coercion".
尼哈拉尼今年1月上任审查委员会主席.他就任前几日,前主席里拉·桑姆森因对影片《神的使者》的删减引发争议,被指"干预与强制",因而辞职.
Mr Nihalani refused to comment on the James Bond film and his decision to cut short scenes.
