US actor Tom Hanks has said the latest Toy Story film highlights children's addiction to screens, an issue that he says strikes "terror in the heart".
美国演员汤姆·汉克斯表示,《玩具总动员》系列的最新一部电影聚焦儿童对电子屏幕的上瘾问题,这一现象令他感到“内心恐惧”。
The fifth instalment of the animated franchise sees Woody, Buzz and Jessie threatened by a new frog-like tablet known as Lilypad, which captivates the film's children.
在这一动画系列电影的第五部中,胡迪、巴斯光年和翠丝面临一个新的青蛙形状平板设备“Lilypad”的威胁,这个设备吸引了片中孩子们的注意力。
Hanks said the cast related to the storyline because they had all "met that disinterest" of young people who "look down at their phone, look up, look down, look up".
汉克斯称,演员们对这个情节很有共鸣,因为他们都曾遇到过年轻人“低头看手机、抬头、再低头、再抬头”的情形,这种“漠视”让他们感同身受。
The actor highlighted "a moment in the movie where we look out on the cityscape and we see that blue glow of a phone in bedrooms and whatnot, and it does strike terror into the heart".
汉克斯特别提到,“电影中有一个场景,我们望向外面的城市天际线,看到卧室之类的地方透出手机的蓝光,这确实让人心生恐惧。”
Toy Story 5, released later this month, sees Hanks, Tim Allen and Joan Cusack return to their roles voicing Woody, Buzz Lightyear and Jessie, while Past Lives star Greta Lee joins the cast to voice Lilypad.
《玩具总动员 5》将于本月晚些时候上映,汉克斯、蒂姆·艾伦和琼·库萨克将继续为胡迪、巴斯光年和翠丝配音,而《过往人生》的明星格里塔·李加入演员阵容,为 Lilypad 配音。
The film comes at a time of wider debate about the potential harms of too much screen time, particularly social media.
这部电影的上映正值社会对过度使用屏幕(尤其是社交媒体)的潜在危害展开广泛讨论之际。
Allen, who voices Buzz Lightyear, recalled how he recently took his teenage daughter to the cinema, but she struggled to concentrate for the whole film because children "are so used to seven-second movies on Instagram", he said.
为巴斯光年配音的艾伦回忆说,他最近带十几岁的女儿去电影院,但她很难全程集中注意力,因为孩子们“已经习惯了 Instagram 上七秒钟的‘电影’”,他说。
But, Allen acknowledged, every generation has its own debate about certain technology, and his parents had similar concerns when he was young.
不过艾伦也承认,每一代人都会对某种技术产生争议,他小的时候父母也有类似的担忧。
"As soon as I said 'put that phone down', I remember my parents going 'turn the music off', " he laughed.
他笑着说:“我一说起‘把手机放下’,就想起我父母当时对我说‘把音乐关掉’。”
