【書名】:Somewhere in Time 時光倒流七十年 (1998版)
【作者】:Richard Matheson 理查德·馬西森
【類型】:電影原著、穿越、愛情
【簡介】:
50年前的愛情經典——
“Why were you expecting me?” I asked.
「為什麼會等我?」我問。
“Will you tell me where you came from?” she countered.
她反問:「你能不能告訴我你來自哪裡?」
“I did tell you.”
「我確實告訴過你。」
“Richard.” Her tone was mild but it was obvious that she was reproving me.
「 理查德。 」她的語氣很溫和,但顯然是在責備我。
“I promise that I’ll tell you when the right time comes,” I said. “I just can’t tell you now because—” I struggled for the proper words “—it might disturb you.”
「我保證,時機成熟時我會告訴你,」我說。「只是現在我不能告訴你,因為——」我努力尋找合適的措辭,「——這可能會讓你不安。」
“Disturb me?” Her laugh was brief and tinged with bitterness. “How can I be more disturbed than I am?”
「 打擾我?」她笑了笑,笑聲短暫而苦澀。「我還能比現在更煩嗎?」
I waited, silent. It took so long for her to speak that I decided she wasn’t going to tell me. Then, at last, she broke the silence, asking, unexpectedly, “Will you laugh?”
我沉默地等著。她過了很久才開口,我都覺得她不會告訴我了。最後,她終於打破了沉默,出乎意料地問道:「你會笑嗎?」
“Is it funny?” I couldn’t check the response though I regretted it the moment it passed my lips.
「好笑嗎?」我來不及確認這句話的意思,話一出口我就後悔了。
Happily, she took it as intended, her face softening with a tired smile. “In a way,” she said. “Bizarre, at least.”
她欣然接受了這個意思,臉上浮現出一絲疲憊的微笑。「某種程度上來說,」她說,「至少很奇怪。」
“Let me decide,” I asked her.
「讓我來決定,」我問她。
Another lengthy hesitation. Finally, stiffening her back as though to brace herself for the recountal, she began. “It comes in two parts,” she said. “Late in the eighties, I don’t remember the exact year, my mother and I performed in Virginia City.”
她又是一陣長時間的猶豫。最後,她挺直了腰背,彷彿要為接下來的敘述做好準備,然後開口說道:「這事分兩部分,」她說,「八十年代末,具體哪一年我記不清了,我和母親在弗吉尼亞城演出過。」
November 1887, the thought came unbidden.
1887年11月,這個念頭不由自主地湧上心頭。
“One night, after the performance,” she continued, “some people brought an old Indian woman to the hotel where we were staying. They told us she could predict the future, so, as a lark, I asked her to tell mine.”
「一天晚上演出結束後,」她繼續說道,「有人帶了一位印度老婦人到我們住的酒店。他們說她能預知未來,所以我一時興起,請她幫我算算我的未來。」
I felt my heartbeat growing heavier.
我覺得自己的心跳越來越重。
“She said that, when I was twenty-nine years old, I would meet the—” she stopped “—a man,” she amended. “That he would come to me—” she drew in sudden breath “—under very strange circumstances.”
「她說,在我二十九歲那年,我會遇到——」她停頓了一下,「——一個男人,」她補充道。「他會來找我——」她突然倒吸了一口氣,「——在非常奇怪的情況下。」
I looked at her lovely profile, waiting. When she said no more, I prompted, “Part two?”
我看著她迷人的側臉,靜靜地等待著。她沒有再說話,我便問:「第二部分?」
She spoke immediately. “There is a wardrobe mistress in our company whose mother was a Gypsy. She claims to have—what shall I call it?—the power of divination?”
她立刻開口說道:「我們公司有一位服裝管理員,她的母親是吉普賽人。她聲稱自己有——我該怎麼稱呼它呢?——占卜的能力?」
The beating of my heart was very heavy now. “And?” I murmured.
我的心跳變得異常劇烈。 「然後呢?」我低聲問。
“Six months ago, she told me that—” She stopped uncomfortably.
「六個月前,她告訴我—」她尷尬地停了下來。
“Please tell me,” I asked:
「請告訴我,」我問:
She hesitated, then began again. “That I would meet this … man in November.” I heard the sound of her swallowing. “On a beach,” she said.
她猶豫了一下,然後又開口說道:「我會在十一月遇到這個……男人。」我聽到她吞了口唾沫。 「 在海灘上, 」她說。
I couldn’t speak, overwhelmed by what she’d told me. The miracle of what had taken place in my life now seemed balanced by the miracle of what had taken place in hers. Not that I believed I was the only man in the world for her; nothing like that. It was simply that I felt a sense of what can only be described as awe at the phenomenon of our coming together.
她的話讓我激動得說不出話來。我生命中發生的奇蹟,如今似乎與她生命中發生的奇蹟達到了平衡。倒不是說我認為我是她命中註定的唯一,絕非如此。我只是對我們相遇的奇蹟感到無比敬畏。

時光倒流七十年,又名《重返時光》

罹患絕症的劇作家理查德(Richard Collier)在某次渡假時,偶然看到一位絕美女星愛麗絲·麥肯納(Elise McKenna)的畫像,深深為其著迷。

核心特色——
非科幻的穿越:
作者並未將穿越描繪為科學儀器的突破,而是聚焦於主角對愛情的信念與「心靈力量」來打破時間限制。
經典改編:
小說後來於1980年被改編成同名經典浪漫奇幻電影,由「超人」基斯杜化·李夫(Christopher Reeve)主演,配樂極其悠揚動人。
中文譯本:
小說的中文譯本在華語地區曾以《似曾相識》書名發行。
電影相關
男主角理查德(Richard Collier)在1972年的大學畢業聚會上遇到一個神秘的老婦人,她走到理查德的跟前,輕聲低喃:「回到我身邊來吧!(Come back to me.)」又交給理查德一個老舊的懷錶後,便於夜色中緩緩的離開。
理查德對此感到困惑,但他漸漸淡忘了這回事。八年之後,已成為劇作家的理查德與女友分手後決定前往麥克金納島渡假,在他下榻的Grand Hotel的歷史文物廳中掛著一幅年輕女子的相片,理查德注視著相片中那張美麗的臉,久久無法自拔,他莫名的感到似曾相識。
經過理查德的多方查證,原來相片上的人是已故女演員愛麗絲·麥肯納(Elise McKenna),也就是八年前給他懷錶的那個老婦人,她在見到理查德的當晚在家中過世。且理查德發現,原來自己曾與愛麗絲相識相戀。
自己竟會和一位70年前的女子相戀,這簡直不可思議,但理查德對此深信不疑。為此廢寢忘食的理查德,得到從前就讀大學的物理學教授的幫助,他希望能透過時光倒流的方法回到過去……

電影《時光倒流七十年》,在發行之初並不賣座,就連導演吉諾特·茲瓦克後來也不得不承認,儘管他與全體製作人員都對這部片有莫大期望,票房以及獎項都曾令他感到難過。
當時影片試映時,並沒有受到觀眾的愛戴,所以也就沒辦法在戲院播放。
事隔多年,這部影片無意間由一個電視台高層工作者發現了,他給這段動人的愛情故事深深打動,於是將之在有線頻道播放,結果觀眾反應熱烈。
《時光倒流七十年》這部差點被埋沒的好片子就這樣重見天日,成為經典電影。
《時光倒流七十年》於1981年9月12日開始在香港當時最豪華的碧麗宮戲院獨家放映,因口碑及票房俱佳而持續放映至翌年的4月22日,共放映223日,創下連續上映同一套電影的最長紀錄!!
電影最終票房收入達938萬港元,成為1982年香港電影票房外語電影冠軍,轟動全港。

題外話,因本片在香港大受歡迎,香港男歌手鄭少秋,曾於1982年演唱由卡龍填詞、改編自本片主題音樂而成的粵語流行曲《如在夢中》…
製作感言
很多人說,穿越小說,先驅者是《尋秦記》,我覺得不是,穿越小說的始祖,應該是1975的《Somewhere in Time》(舊版名稱是:Bid Time Return)。

《Somewhere in Time》小說迄今仍沒有正式中文電子書版,現在電子書的中文繁體,是AI 機翻,或許有所不足,請版友閱讀時以英文原版為正式內容,中文為輔吧!
