影片对白

Carrie: When you live on a tiny island like Manhattan, the odds of bumping into the one who broke your heart are incredibly high. The odds of bumping into him when you look like shit are even higher. After a break-up, certain streets, locations... even times of day are off-limits. The city becomes a deserted battlefield loaded with emotional land mines. You have to be very careful where you step or you could be blown to pieces.

Miranda: Get your coat on, Anne Frank, we're going out.

Carrie: I'm really not in the mood. 

Miranda: Coat on. Body out.

Carrie: Where are we going?

Miranda: It's a surprise.

Carrie: OK, but only if it's nowhere I can run into him.

Miranda: Just when exactly do you think you're gonna be getting out of this hostage situation? What? Am I wrong?

Charlotte: Don't listen to her, Carrie, it's only been a month. It takes half the total time you went out with someone to get over them.

Carrie: I always like a good math solution to any love problem.

Charlotte: It's the break-up rule. You and Big only went out for a year. So that means she's got five more months to get over him.

Miranda: No, you got to cut your losses and get back in the game. When Eric and I broke up, Igot over him right away.

Carrie: I don't really remember it being like that.

Charlotte: What? Eric who?

Miranda: Eric, asshole I dated a couple of years ago.

Charlotte: Oh, that Eric.

Carrie: Miranda used to call Eric the love of her life until he left her for another woman. Now, she almost never mentioned him.

Charlotte: You can't push yourself into feeling good. The only way to get over somebody is to feel really bad, to cry to your girlfriends and then to replay what you hated about him over and over in your head all day. 

Carrie: Yeah. That sounds about right.

Miranda: You're way too dressed up for where we're going.

Carrie: Well, you know I'll risk overdressed vs. the chance of meeting Big looking the way I feel.

Miranda: Oh, God. It seems the first meeting is the worst, you never know how to act.

Carrie: Then there's the vomiting.

Miranda: C'mon! Show us what you got. Last year this guy was Mr. September. He hit like, ten home runs in nine days. Ball! Good eye! Good eye! Way to watch them. He batted 373. He drove in 47 runs. His on-base percentage was.410.

Carrie: As Miranda went on about the new Yankee's stats, I couldn't help wondering about my own. Ten years playing in New York. Countless dates. Five real relationships. One serious. All ending in break-ups. If I were a ballplayer, I'd be batting... whatever really bad is.

Anne Frank——亲历纳粹统治下的生活

Frank, Anne, 1929-45, German diarist, b. Frankfurt as Anneliese Marie Frank. In order to escape Nazi persecution, her family emigrated (1933) to Amsterdam, where her father Otto became a business owner. After the Nazis occupied the Netherlands, her family (along with several other Jews) hid for just over two years (1942-44) in a "secret annex" that was part of her father's office and warehouse building. During those years, Anne kept a diary characterized by poignancy, insight, humor, touching naiveté, and sometimes tart observation. The family was betrayed to the Germans in 1944, and at 15 Anne died of typhus in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.

Anne's diary was discovered by one of the family's helpers and after the war was given to her father, the only immediate family member to survive the Holocaust. Edited by him, The Diary of a Young Girl (1947) became an international bestseller and has been translated into English (1952) and 66 other languages. It was also adapted into a play (1955) and a film (1959). A critical edition was published in 1986, and a complete edition, containing almost a third more material, appeared in 1995 on the 50th anniversary of her death. Anne Frank also wrote stories, fables, and essays, which were published in 1959. The Franks' Amsterdam hiding place is now a museum, there is a foundation established by her father, and institutions devoted to her exist in New York, Berlin, London, and other cities.

Annie Frank 生活在一个隐蔽的小屋里，Miranda 用来比喻Carrie 把自己关在家中不出去。
