看着足球比赛一样，这部剧是我们最邪恶思想的化身。[/cn] [en]So what is politics in reality, away from the gloss of cable TV drama? Mostly punishing incremental work. One inch forward, a great slide backwards. It’s good intentions felled by events. It’s good days and bad days. There are more stuff-ups than conspiracies. There is treachery, but it’s mainly suburban and small rather than grandly operatic. There are strong men who control weak men (yes, mainly men, although not exclusively). People fall in and out with each other, compromise themselves, fail to live up to their best aspirations, lose nerve and will. But then of course there are those great moments: courage, heart, bravery, truth. Acts of genuine reform, and acts of progress. The moments that make hope not ridiculous.[/en][cn]那么，拨开电视剧集中的云雾，现实生活中的政治是什么样子的呢？其实大部分都是惩罚性的增量活动，每向前一步，就有可能引起大规模倒退。好的意图总是被不好的事故击垮，好日子和坏日子交替出现。这里有比阴谋更黑暗的东西，有背叛，但是无伤大雅。强权人物控制弱势的下属，人与人之间的关系很不稳定，他们向对方承诺，而又辜负了对方的最大期望，逐渐失去的勇气和憧憬。当然，政治界也有美好的因素，那就是胆识、爱心、勇气和真相。货真价实的改革、不断的进步和那些给与人们希望而非荒谬言论的作为。[/cn] [en]The thing that House of Cards absolutely nails, however, is the dangerous malaise of the present. Institutions are being hollowed out, making them ripe for gaming. Democratic politics around the world is corroding in the face of an entrenched culture of deal-making and voracious demands by third party interests.[/en][cn]《纸牌屋》真正展示的，是现实生活中的骇人诟病。国家制度被日益掏空，不断被人玩弄于掌间。在第三方利益专断思想和贪婪需求的面前，全世界的民主政治日趋被腐蚀殆尽。[/cn] [en]If you want the truth that House of Cards conveys to the viewer, it is this: more rubbish rises to the surface in this weightless world. The cacophony can conceal truth, not reveal it. Frank Underwood, compelling creature that he is, exists only in our dreams. [/en][cn]如果你想知道《纸牌屋》传达的信息真谛，那么我在这里告诉你们：在这个失重的世界里，越来越多的垃圾浮出水面，不和谐的音符盖住了原有的真相， Frank Underwood 这个引人注目的角色，真的只存在于人们的梦境中。[/cn]

on the John Le Carre book. The BBC aired a War and Peace series with Anthony Hopkins from 1972-1974. 沪江影音快讯： BBC近期向大热网络剧《纸牌屋》的编剧Andrew Davies约稿，证实了将改编经典名著、托尔斯泰的《战争与和平》。BBC曾在1972年到1974年间播出《战争与和平》，这次翻拍的短剧预计将有6个小时时长，将于2015年面世。此次改编将展示原著中的更多细节，并重点关注社交、家庭冲突、爱情等方面。

到了9分以上，足见这部1990年代经典英剧的魅力。此次翻拍的前两集由大导演大卫芬奇操刀，他曾执导过众多悬疑经典电影，包括《本杰明·巴顿奇事》、《社交网络》、《七宗罪》、《搏击俱乐部》等。除他以外，老戏骨凯文·史派西的加盟也让这部政治惊悚剧看点多多。 要小编说，这部剧中有很多美国的“政治梗”。如果能完全看懂，你也对美国现代的历史政治有了一定程度的了解。总之，这是一部需要“费脑子”的剧…… 【剧情简介】 凯文·史派西饰演的角色名叫Francis Underwood，美国国会众议院多数党督导（或称多数党党鞭 the House Majority Whip in the United States Congress）。他是个政治家中的政治家，老练成熟，有令人崇拜的领导范儿，很有魅力，也很无情。他的成功来自于一个事实，他和妻子Claire（罗宾·怀特饰演）将不惜一切代价，爬上权力的顶峰…… 《纸牌屋》改编自迈克尔·道布斯(Michael Dobbs)的同名政治惊悚小说。这里"House"想来应该指的是众议院。故事的背景被设纸牌屋定在撒切尔夫人(Margaret Thatcher)作为英国首相的最后阶段。1990年的原版聚焦在前保守党秘书长身上，他跟随了一位非常渴望成为新首相的政客。而芬奇的版本则将整个设定都搬去了美国，但是故事依旧不变，还是侧重在各种政治野心和blackmail勒索的问题漩涡中。 【House of Cards是什么？】 House of cards 是一个固顶搭配，意思是“纸牌搭的房子”。就是用扑克牌搭起来的、像金字塔的一个三角，如下图： 比如“水果姐”Katty Perry的Firework中，有一句歌词就是：“Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin. Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in.” （你有没有感觉过自己像纸一样纤弱，像纸牌屋一样风一吹就倒）。 而在这部政治剧中，House这个词有双关语，同样代指“议院”的House。而cards，也暗指了政客间互相欺诈的游戏态度。 （以上资料由沪江小编综合整理自时光网和知乎） 【纸牌屋预告片】
