<新聞> Netflix 搶購羅爾德達爾的全部作品

哇 ! Netflix 砸錢做內容的規模，很少有公司能跟。
而且規模經濟效益會越來越明顯。

--------------------------------------

Netflix 已從已故作者的家人那裡收購了羅爾德·達爾的作品，使其能夠進一步開發兒童經典作品，如查理和巧克力工廠、瑪蒂爾達和女巫，這是視頻流媒體集團最大的同類內容交易。

這家美國公司週二宣布收購 Roald Dahl Story Company，這是其通過擴展其內容庫來鞏固其作為全球最受歡迎的流媒體服務的地位的最新舉措。Netflix 擁有 2.09 億訂戶，但面臨來自亞馬遜、迪斯尼和 HBO 等公司以及許多其他選擇的激烈競爭。

其他已經與 Roald Dahl 的遺產有協議的公司——例如，企鵝蘭登書屋有圖書出版協議——將保留他們獲得的任何權利。

已經改編成大銀幕的片名包括《女巫》、《BFG》和《查理和巧克力工廠》，其中有兩部電影的迭代。華納兄弟正在製作旺卡，講述這位巧克力企業家早年如何遇到 Oompa-Loompas。

此次收購將賦予 Netflix 以其他格式開發角色和故事的權利，更廣泛的動畫、電視和商品的權利，這些權利尚未被其他方控制，並且在某些情況下，權利已經分配移交。

2006年，哈利波特的作者 J.K. Rowling，也是皇家文學學會（Royal Society of Literature）當年的一員，曾經這樣說，羅德達爾的《巧克力冒險工廠》 (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) 是她的十大愛書之一，而且，也是每個小孩都該閱讀的小說。

七月七日是國際巧克力日，昨晚睡覺前，想說該看那部電影，想到巧克力，於是打開提姆．波頓（Tim Burton）導演的《巧克力冒險工廠》（2005）。再看一次，瞬間明白為何Rowling會說，每個孩子都應該認識這個故事。

不過，不只適合小孩，《巧克力冒險工廠》也是每個大人都可以拿來審視自己的小說與電影，畢竟我們也都是從小孩變大人，也會去生出小孩的人類。

＃已經無法信任人類的旺卡先生
威力旺卡（Willy Wonka）的巧克力工廠，原本雇用的是人類員工，但是因為有些員工趁機偷竊旺卡巧克力的秘密配方，使得旺卡先生生意受傷、無法信任人類，並且決定關起大門、與人保持距離。旺卡工廠巧克力工廠自此成為神秘的傳奇——製造世界上最好吃的巧克力，卻不知道是如何製造出來的。

幾年之後，神秘的威力旺卡忽然間決定邀請世界上最幸運的五個小朋友，與他的一位家長，一同進入旺卡先生的神奇工廠，參觀這個全世界最神秘的巧克力製造廠。
.
＃有些小孩真的很討人厭
旺卡先生不喜歡人類，因為有些人的品性不好，有些人習性不好；內在性格有問題，造成外在行為也不端正，讓旺卡先生寧可選擇與叢林來的矮人族（Oompa-Loompa）合作，提供可可亞當薪水，或是信賴松鼠挑選堅果的智慧，也不願意與人類共事。

不過，當旺卡先生發現自己已經長出白髮，傳承變得有點棘手。於是，他必須找個可以信賴的小朋友，從小訓練起。

只是，許多小朋友都讓人很討厭，要如何挑選呢？不如就先把他們集合到巧克力工廠，來趟參觀之旅，再從中挑選出一位比較不討人厭的小孩。
.
＃慣小孩都是大人寵出來的
旺卡先生會挑選一位家長一起進入工廠，因為可以透過小孩與大人的互動，認識小孩在家長面前卸下心房的真實面貌，當然也可以看見大人是如何是非不分、慣壞小孩。

小孩不是天生壞胚子，小朋友會討人厭，多半是因為大人本身的價值觀有問題，而不自覺地慣壞小孩（就故事的論點）。
.
＃貪吃不節制與母親的盲點
來自德國的小胖奧古斯都，是個不知節制的貪吃鬼，不只貪吃，也沒有習慣把臉頰嘴巴擦拭乾淨。奧古斯都的母親沒有意識到，自己兒子因為貪吃而變得巨大且討人厭，甚至以此為傲。這就是母親的盲點。
.

＃排擠他人爭第一
全身穿著運動服的紫羅蘭，跟媽媽都是心中只有第一名的勢利眼。她們以自己為中心，算計每件事情的得失，確認自己是否能夠由其中獲得利益。

紫羅蘭的每件事情都想要得第一，她不間斷嚼口香糖獲得世界紀錄之外，也要成為第一位嚼到第一片三餐口香糖的人類。自我中心、排擠他人，硬搶第一，讓紫羅蘭真是討人厭。
.
＃氣勢凌人不聽勸
薇露卡的父親是堅果工廠的大老闆。大老闆養出的孩子，比起大老闆還氣勢大也口氣大，完全凌駕父親。薇露卡以命令與不妥協的方式，堅決要求他人必定要達成她的要求。

這種霸氣不講理的小孩，時常可見，父母已經無法教育他們，他們自以為是、不聽勸告、還會仗勢欺人，十足討人厭。還好，薇露卡已經被松鼠丟進垃圾場了。
.
＃自以為聰明的電視兒童
麥克則是個自以為聰明的電視兒童，每天泡在螢幕前，整天都在打電動，講出來的語言，都是暴力與殘殺。

麥克仗著自己腦袋裝著許多奇怪的冷門科學，於是喜歡口氣大又頂嘴，不僅看不起大人，也認為其他人都比他笨。麥克也是一個大人無法管教的慣小孩。自大、傲慢、目中無人，讓麥克把自己困在電視機裡，最後成為紙片人。
.
＃寵壞小孩的通病
除了查理，其他四個被寵壞的小孩，都有一樣的通病：傲慢、自大、貪婪、自私、目中無人、不聽人勸、愛頂嘴、又沒有同理心。

查理與他們不同，雖然貧窮，但是爺爺奶奶外公外婆與父母，教導他要懂得謙虛、溫暖、真誠、與同理他人。因為這些人格特質，讓查理雖然什麼都沒做，卻意外獲得旺卡贈與的巧克力工廠擁有權與經營權。
.
＃乖孩子小查理就是後來的墨菲醫生
在《巧克力冒險工廠》的可愛男主角佛瑞迪·海默（Alfred Highmore）長大之後，繼續在英國演藝圈發展，在戲劇界闖出一片天。

海默先是與 Vera Farmingo 在《貝茲旅館》（Bates Motel, 2013）飾演母子。《貝茲旅館》可謂電影《驚魂記》（Psycho, 1960）的當代前傳。當時海默與 Farmingo 都獲得不少獎項的提名。

之後，海默最受人稱讚的表演，是在電視劇《良醫墨非》飾演患有自閉症的墨菲醫生，還以此角獲得金球獎最佳男主角的提名。
.
＃提姆波頓與海倫娜波漢卡特
在《巧克力冒險工廠》裡，查理的母親是由奧斯卡女主角卡特（Helena Bonham Carte）飾演。卡特會演出這樣一個豪不出奇的角色，那是因為當時卡特是波頓的女友。

導演波頓與卡特，兩人沒有結婚，是以伴侶的型式一起生活，由2001開始，至2014分手，有兩個共同子女。欣賞這種伴侶制，合則一起，不合則分，可以共享美好人生，也可以不打擾他人地安靜說再見（倘若是結婚與離婚，就得驚動家人）。
.
＃英國TheatreRoyalDruryLane的巧克力夢想工廠
除了羅德達爾的小說，我的第一次《巧克力冒險工廠》，是在倫敦柯芬園附近的Theatre Royal Drury Lane，那是場非常華麗美好的戲劇，尤其是在故事後半的透明電梯，藍色星點綴滿整個黑色的舞台，只有一個透明的電梯間遊走在天空，好美好魔幻。

這是我第一次在劇場中，深深感受到奇幻竟然可以這麼近又這麼寫實，舞台設計精緻有創意，歌舞也是歡樂又驚喜。於是，除了大家都愛看又常常買不到票的《獅子王》之外，也非常推薦《巧克力夢想工廠》。

英國演員麥爾坎．狄克遜（Malcolm Dixon）辭世，享壽66歲。他出演過的作品包括《歡樂糖果屋》（Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory ,1971）、《向上帝借時間》（Time Bandits ,1981）、《星際大戰六部曲：絕地大反攻》（Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi ,1983）、《魔王迷宮》（Labyrinth ,1986）等作。

．
麥爾坎．狄克遜出生英國東北部的達勒姆郡，在七個兄弟當中唯一罹患侏儒症的孩子。他在青少年時期在溜冰場被一名經紀人看，從六〇年代踏上表演之路。他的第一部作品是改編自羅德．達爾（Roald Dahl）經典童書《查理和巧克力工廠》的《歡樂糖果屋》，在劇中飾演橘色皮膚的隆巴小矮人（Oompa Loompa）（如圖），但當時他無法在電影當中署名。

．
不過他下兩部參與的電影作品都大有來頭，分別是肯．洛區（Ken Loach）所執導的《Black Jack》和太空歌劇電影《飛天大戰》（Flash Gordon ,1980）。不過真正讓狄克遜為人所知的第一部作品，應是泰瑞．吉連（Terry Gilliam）執導的《向上帝借時間》，在片中角色戲份較為吃重。1983年的《星際大戰六部曲：絕地大反攻》，他在劇中飾演造型有如小熊的伊娃族戰士，但必須要戴上皮套演出，見不著臉。

．
麥爾坎．狄克遜的晚期作品數向來不穩定，由於身型因素，因此被侷限於出演外星人或奇異的人類種族，演出機會向來不多，即便有出演，也只能淪為龍套角色。即便是後來接演的《魔王迷宮》或者他最後參與的一部好萊塢電影《風雲際會》（Willow ,1988）皆是如此。

．
其晚年表演生涯將重心轉至舞台劇，曾出演改編自托爾金（J. R. R. Tolkien）小說《哈比人歷險記》（The Hobbit）的同名舞台劇，近年則是舞台劇《白雪公主》（Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs）的固定班底。

．
2020年4月9日，麥爾坎．狄克遜與世長辭，家屬並未說明死因。

My Every Dolly Makeup Routine

Hey gummy bears! Finally I decided to wear makeup everyday, well 5 or 6 days a week, this means it's time for my every day makeup video!
I will show you each and every step of my makeup routine, it's just going to be the same steps I take every morning so I'm showing you the same thing I did yesterday morning and the day before and will do tomorrow, just now, on camera. Of course I could do a smexy smoky eye look or something really dramatic and let me tell you I tried but the thing is that my face and mind as well are still kind of young my face a femme fatale look isn't really what works for me, reminder, I tried, more than once! on a daily basis so thsi is why I came up with a quick and cute makeup routine (20 minutes only!) that looks cute and matches to my cute style of clothes and makes me feel more cute and brings me one step closer to surround me with everything cute! ^O^

LET'S GET STARTED.

I keep all my products for my everyday makeup together in this bag so I can keep the process quick and smooth.
Next I smoothen my complexion with a moisturiser. If I had a real moisturiser I would preferably use that but I don't really bother because it works and if it works I go with it. Now I've got really pale skin which means my purple panda eyes and red blotches make me look like I stepped out of a tim burton movie and since I don't want to give people the creeps I will have to even out my skin tone and for that I use a small, a small amount of pink concealer. Pink concealer is the best when I apply it under my eyes to cover the pruple and it also smoothens out any ruddy areas. Now that my face looks more human and less zombie I get to the main part which is a pearl sized drop of my precious liquid foundation. Since I have pale skin it impossible to find foundation that doesn't make look like like a snowman with an oompa loompa head. So if you have a skin tone that isn't common then 1 congrats you're not mainstream 2 go to a professional theatre store, because that is where I found this foundation. This is going to last me a very long time since I got the biggest bottle but I will only need to use a small pea sized drop, which I'll apply first with a makeup brush and then blend it into my skin with this round makeup spongy here. I used to use my fingers but now I think that a sponge is much softer and enables you to smoothly distribute the foundation. Now I see that there's still some visible redness around my nose and I still got some panda eyes, well, maybe baby panda and that's when my camouflage concealer get's into action. As the name already suggest the camouflage concealer is highly covering so I will only need to dab on a small amount on my problem zones, this is the easiest with a brush. And this is it, now I just need to set my foundation and for that I use a purple pigmented finishing powder . This type of powder is kind of hard to find I also just stumbled upon this for the first time in the that theatre makeup store and found that it goes really well with my skin, but it works with every skin shade trust me so it's quite the magic item I've got here and as you can when I apply it it doesnt look purple, but actually leaves my skin with a matt but bright finish. Magic purple powder!
And from now on things actually go really quick, I've got this huge makeup palette from which I will use light brown on my eyes and dark brown on the outer edge. I've also got my favourite cheek colour here which is shade of dusk rose and I apply it on my cheek apples somewhere close to my eyes. Now I don't need this palette anymore because I'm ready for the dreaded eyeliner part. Since this is an everyday look Im gonna keep the eyeliner low key and just line 2 thirds of my upper eyelid and end it with an existing but small wing which usually ends up looking bigger than supposed but whatever I'll cover it up mascara just there where used eyeliner because overdoing eyeliner and mascara doesn't look neat nor sweet. (phew) Now if I still don't feel exhausted I decide to put on fake eyelashes and circle contact lenses.

今年のRinoの誕生日ケーキは、チャーリーとチョコレート工場のキャラクター・ケーキに挑戦しました(〃^∇^)
自分自身は自画自賛でしたけど、Rinoはケーキを見てもすぐに分かりませんでしたね...(´‐ω‐）
オトは、ウンパルンパが「騒音おばさん」に似ているって言うし (￣ロ￣lll)

制作するためのコツは、チョコの溶け具合です。
描いたら冷凍庫で冷やす、固まったら塗る、塗っている最中に溶け出したら冷やす...この繰り返しです。
制作は時間と根気が入りますが、上手く仕上がった時に感動的です♪(ﾟ▽^*)ﾉ

As for her birthday's cake of this year, a mom challenged the making of character cake of 'Charlie and chocolate factory'.
The mom praised oneself.
But she did not answer the character that immediately look at the cake.
Besides, as for the mom, it has been said "An Oompa Loompa resembles a 'zatsuon-obasan(Noise woman)'!" to Rino's dad.
An art to make these decorations is to be careful about the condition that chocolate dissolves.
If painting the chocolate, cool it in a freezer.
The chocolate is cold, painting also.
This is a repeat.
Production is time-consuming. However, it is impressive when finished.
