【英语趣味课堂】最喜爱的演员-Favorite Actor（在线收听） |
Todd: So, Ruth, who is your favorite actor or actress? Ruth: Oh, that's a good question. I think it definitely has to be Ewan McGregor.
Todd: Mm, yeah, he's pretty good.
Ruth: I really, really like him.
Todd: Why do you like him?
Ruth: Well, he's really, really good-looking. I think primarily I like him because he is so good-looking and he's just got really nice skin and really nice eyes and nice hair and so primarily I think it's his looks, although from what I've read in magazines and things, he seems like he is a nice guy as well.
Todd: What movie did you really enjoy that he made?
Ruth: Probably Moulin Rouge. That's probably my favorite because in Moulin Rouge he sings a song called Your song by Elton John and he sings it to this girl, and I just think, "Wow, imagine Ewan McGregor singing that song to you. That would just be absolutely phenomenal." I really like that, so although he's been in different things but that's probably my favorite.
Todd: Did you see him in Train Spotting?
Ruth: Yes, I did, yeah.
Todd: That's the first time I saw him and I thought that that was just a really good movie.
Ruth: It's a really good film.
Todd: You know when they showed that in the States a lot of people requested that it had like transcripts.
Ruth: No way.
Todd: Yeah, because the English was so difficult for American people to understand.
Ruth: That's really funny.
Todd: Isn't that funny.
Ruth: Yeah.
Todd: Yeah, so, it's funny though cause now Ewan McGregor is Obi-One.
Ruth: That's true.
Todd: In the Star Wars movies.
Ruth: No, I'm not a Star Wars fan, actually but I would probably watch it just for Ewan McGregor.
Todd: Have you seen him in the other two?
Ruth: I just saw him in the first one.
Todd: Oh, really. Oh, yeah, he does a pretty good job.
Ruth: Yeah, he's good, he's good.
