進入中英對照讀新聞／Italian director Zeffirelli to help pope with image義大利名導演柴菲萊利要幫教宗改變形象
◎俞智敏
Italian film and opera legend Franco Zeffirelli has agreed to become an image consultant to Pope Benedict XVI, the director said in an interview published recently.
義大利電影與歌劇傳奇導演柴菲萊利已同意擔任教宗本篤十六世的形象顧問，他在最近出版的一項訪問中表示。
The pope does not have a "happy image," Zeffirelli told La Stampa, adding： "Coming after a pope as telegenic as John Paul II is a difficult task."
教宗缺少「快樂的形象」，柴菲萊利向「新聞報」透露，他還說「在媒體前極為上相的若望保祿二世身後繼任教宗，是一項艱難的任務。」
Benedict, elected in 2005, "comes across coldly, which isn’t suited to his surroundings," Zeffirelli said, adding that the pope’s wardrobe "should be reviewed."
2005年獲選為教宗的本篤十六世「看起來顯得冷漠，而這與他的周遭環境並不相符，」柴菲萊利說，他認為教宗的衣服也「應該重新檢討」。
The pope’s robes are "too sumptuous and flashy," the 84-year-old director of "Jesus of Nazareth" and "Romeo and Juliet" told the daily La Stampa. They should instead reflect "the simplicity and sobriety seen in the other echelons of the Church," he said.
教宗的法袍「太過奢侈華麗」，這位曾導過「拿撒勒的耶穌」及「羅密歐與茱麗葉」等名片的八十四歲導演向「新聞報」表示。法袍應反映「教會高層的簡樸與莊重」，他說。
The 80-year-old German pope ""doesn’t smile much, but he’s an intelletual," Zeffirelli said.
現年八十歲的德籍教宗「不常微笑，但他是位知識份子，」柴菲萊利說。
