看《完美音調》學地道口語：面試時見咯！

【內容簡介】

巴頓大學新人貝卡（安娜·肯德里克 Anna Kendrick 飾），意外加入學校的阿卡貝拉女子美聲合唱團，該社團集結了又乖又壞又怪的各樣女性成員，唯一共通點就是能清唱出猶如天籟的美聲。社團成員包括：自認歌聲最好，自信過人的“胖艾美”（蕾蓓爾·威爾森 Rebel Wilson 飾）、常常出言不遜又固執墨守成規，但其實焦慮不已的歐柏莉（安娜·坎普 Anna Camp 飾）、團員精神支柱克蘿伊（布蘭特妮·斯諾 Brittany Snow 飾）、性事無度的撩人歌姬史黛西（亞歷克西斯·克納普 Alexis Knapp 飾）、歌聲動人的男人婆辛西亞蘿絲（伊斯特·迪恩 Ester Dean 飾）、聲音小如蚊子但即興饒舌卻令大家驚豔不已的哈娜梅李。

與校園格格不入的貝卡，如何以她驚人的才華改變阿卡貝拉的傳統表演方式？又如何率領這羣女生與競爭激烈的全國美聲團體一較高下？

【選段臺詞】

Beca’s Father: Beca. Beca, wake up. Funny, this doesn't look like your Intro to Philosophy class.

Beca: I'm posing an important philosophical question. If I don't actually go to that class, will it still suck?

Beca’s Father: Look, honey. College is... It's great. You get to create memories here, I see it every day. You just have to give it a chance. You've been here, what, a month now? Do you have any friends?

Beca: Kimmy Jin is my friend. No.

Beca’s Father: You gotta get out there, Bec. You gotta try something.

Beca: I got a job at the radio station.

Beca’s Father: Oh, great, that place. Yeah, it's dark and dirty and has like, what, those three weirdos who work there?

Beca: Well, four now.

Beca’s Father: You gotta try something new, Bec. Join one club on campus. And if, at the end of a year, you still don't wanna be here, you still wanna go off to LA and be P. Diddy, well, then, you can quit college. And I will help you move to LA.

Beca: Seriously? Yes, seriously. But I really need to see it, Beca. This is college. Join in.

Beca: You shout it loud, but I can't hear a word you say. I'm talking loud, not saying much. I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet. You shoot me down, but I get up. I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose, fire away, fire away. Ricochet, you take your aim……

Chole: You can sing! Dude! How high does your belt go?

Beca: My what? Oh, my God!

Chole: You have to audition for the Bellas.

Beca: I can't concentrate on anything you're saying until you cover your junk.

Chole: Just consider it. One time, we sang backup for Prince. His butt is so tiny that I can hold it with, like, one hand. Oops! Oh! Seriously. I am nude. You were singing Titanium, right?

Beca: You know David Guetta?

Chole: Have I been living under a rock? Yeah. That song is my jam. My lady-jam.

Beca: That's nice.

Chloe: It is. That song really builds. Gross. Can you sing it for me?

Beca: Dude, no. Get out!

Chole: Not for that reason. I'm not leaving here till you sing. So...

Chole and Beca: I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose, fire away, fire away. Ricochet, you take your aim fire away, fire away. You shoot me down, but I won't fall. I am shoot me down, but I won't fall. I am titanium……

Chole: Oh, yeah. I'm pretty confident about all this.

Beca: You should be.

Chole: Oh!

Beca: Still need to shower.

Chole's Boyfriend: You have a lovely voice.

Beca: Thanks.

Chole: Oh. Yeah. See you at auditions!
