(单词翻译)

   The first Sherlock Holmes films started in Earnest in 1921, made by Stoll Picture Productions, in the unlikely setting of Cricklewood...with the curiously1 named Eille Norwood as Sherlock Holmes.

  第一组真正的福尔摩斯系列电影从1921年的欧内斯特开始上映,由斯托尔电影公司出品,场景设置在架空的克里考伍德,扮演大侦探的人名字很怪,叫艾利·诺伍德。
  Eille Norwood's real name was Anthony Brett.
  艾利·诺伍德的真名叫安东尼·布雷特。
  He changed his name, so he always said, because he'd once been in love with a girl called Eileen, or Eille, and he lived in Norwood, and he put these two things together.
  据他本人说,他之所以改名是因为他曾爱上一个叫艾琳或者艾利的姑娘,而他本人又住在诺伍德,所以他把这两者组合成了名字。
  Tricky2 to do, Sherlock Holmes, on the silent screen, because it depends so much upon those set-piece explanations of how things happened.
  默片中的福尔摩斯并不好演,因为故事情节的发展很大程度上需要依靠简明扼要的间幕。
  What Norwood did was concentrate upon staging the idea of Holmes thinking, so much so that he even had his head shaved up to the temples in order to make himself look more intellectual.
  为了极力呈现福尔摩斯的思考过程,诺伍德甚至将头发修剪到了太阳穴以上以使自己看上去更睿智。
  The Norwood series of films also began the trend of placing Holmes in a new era.
  诺伍德的系列电影也将福尔摩斯带入了新的时代。
  They went in for a contemporary 1920s setting this was Holmes for the Modern Age - and one of their highlights was in their use of real locations.
  电影背景设定在20世纪20年代,这是当代版本的福尔摩斯,电影卖点之一就是实地拍摄。
  But how would Arthur Conan Doyle, who was still writing Holmes stories set in period, react to such a modernising approach?
  但是仍在继续创作的亚瑟·柯南·道尔会对当代版本的演绎作何评价呢?
  Conan Doyle gave it his official stamp of approval.
  柯南·道尔表示了认可。
  They met and they toasted each other and gave each other grateful thanks, so he is the first screen Holmes to come with the proper official endorsement3 of Holmes's creator.
  他们见面之后相互敬酒并向对方表示了由衷的感谢,因此诺伍德成为了第一个原创作者正式认可的银幕版福尔摩斯。
  Following Eille Norwood's impressive and successful run of 47 silent quickies, Sherlock Holmes now became a staple4 subject for the cinema.
  随着艾利·诺伍德47部精彩的默片大获成功,福尔摩斯变成了影院里的招牌。
  But over the next few years, the performances on screen tended to be slow and over-studious affairs, only Arthur Wontner's authentic5 Paget-like performance making any real impression.
  但接下来的几年,电影表演逐渐变得缓慢、造作,只有亚瑟·沃特纳那神似佩吉特插画的扮相给人留下了印象。
