如果你是一个侦探小说迷,又或者你只是单纯的喜欢这种类型的影视文字作品,然后你还没有看过阿婆的《无人生还》的话,推荐赶快去看一看,这部作品的创作灵感就来源于经典鹅童之《十个小黑人》,原文:
Ten little nigger boys
十个小黑人
Ten little nigger boys went out to dine;
十个小黑人,外出就餐齐会友,
One choked his little self, and then there were nine.
噎死一个实在糗,十个只剩九;
Nine little nigger boys sat up very late;
九个小黑人,通宵熬夜上网吧
One overslept himself, and then there were eight.
有人睡死不回家,九个只剩八;
Eight little nigger boys travelling in Devon;
八个小黑人,旅游跑到德文去,
One said he‘d stay there, and then there were seven.
一个留下做长居,八个只剩七;
Seven little nigger boys chopping up sticks;
七个小黑人,劈木上演剑客秀
One chopped himself in half, and then there were six.
砍成两半没的救,七个只剩六;
Six little nigger boys playing with a hive;
六个小黑人,招惹蜂群如猛虎,
A bumble-bee stung one, and then there were five.
被叮大包满身鼓,六个只剩五;
Five little nigger boys going in for law;
五个小黑人,一起上庭打官司,
One got in chancery, and then there were four.
一人入狱背刻字,五个只剩四;
Four little nigger boys going out to sea;
四个小黑人,结伴出海去玩耍,
A red herring swallowed one, and then there were three.
鲨鱼一口咬开花,四个只剩仨;
Three little nigger boys walking in the zoo;
三个小黑人,动物园看草泥马,
A big bear bugged one, and then there were two.
狗熊出没人被吓,三个只剩俩;
Two little nigger boys sitting in the sun;
两个小黑人,爱和阳光作游戏,
One got frizzled up, and then there was one.
一个晒成木乃伊,两个只剩一;
One little nigger boy living all alone;
一个小黑人,一人战斗太冷清,
He went and hanged himself, and then there were none.
悬梁自己了余生,一个都不剩!
本来这是一首描述黑奴悲惨命运的童谣,有趣的是这个版本后来被改动,人们认为最后一个小黑人吊死太过于黑暗所以改成了后来流行的版本He got married, and then there were none(一个小黑人人结婚了,最后一个都不剩)......莫非婚姻是爱情的坟墓这种说法世界通用么?阿加莎根据这首童谣改变的《无人生还》完全按照这首鹅童的原意,讲述孤岛发生命案的故事,后来《无人生还》被翻拍成n个版本的电影,有兴趣的推荐去挖87俄国版,还有国语配音。
