Sean Penn is saluting late Friends star Matthew Perry for speaking out about his struggles with drug and alcohol addiction prior to his death.
西恩·潘向已故《老友記》男星馬修·派瑞致敬,感謝他在去世前公開講述了自己與毒品和酒精的斗爭。
The actor and director, who starred on two episodes of Friends in 2001, described Perry as a “talented guy” and recalled praising him on his journey the last time that the pair crossed paths.
這位演員兼導演在2001年出演了兩集《老友記》,他形容派瑞是一個“有才華的人”,并回憶起兩人最后一次相遇時對他的稱贊。
“I can’t claim to have known him well, but I liked him very much,” Penn said on Wednesday’s episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored. "I saw him somewhat recently, and we were both catching a flight out of Los Angeles airport, and I complimented him on what I knew of his book.”
“我不能說我很了解他,但我非常喜歡他,”潘在周三播出的《皮爾斯·摩根未經審查》節(jié)目中說。“我最近見過他,當時我們都在洛杉磯機場搭飛機,我稱贊了他對他的書的了解。”
In Perry's novel, titled Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing, the star openly discussed his decades-long battle with drug and alcohol addiction. Although Penn acknowledged that he “hadn’t read the book," the filmmaker said that he’d seen “several” of Perry’s interviews at the time.
在派瑞的小說《朋友、戀人和大可怕的事情》中,這位明星公開談論了他幾十年來與毒品和酒精成癮的斗爭。盡管潘承認他“沒有讀過這本書”,但這位電影制作人說他當時看過“幾次”派瑞的采訪。
“He seemed to be talking about it, had confronted it, and was very intelligent and bold about it. And generously offering his experience to people to be helpful," he said. "It's tragic, I can't say that I was terribly surprised. I don't know what the whole coroner's report things and everything, but I know he had done a lot of damage to his organs over the years.”
“他似乎在談論它,面對它,并且非常聰明和大膽。并慷慨地將自己的經驗提供給人們,以幫助他們。”“這是悲劇,我不能說我非常驚訝。我不知道驗尸官的報告是怎么說的,但我知道這些年來他對自己的器官造成了很大的損害。”
Penn described Perry's death as a “tough situation,” but noted that the actor left a lasting impact on the world through his art and his candor. “He got to leave that tale behind, and he got to give a lot of joy to a lot of people with his talent,” he concluded. “So, I wish his family well.”
潘稱派瑞的去世是一個“艱難的局面”,但他指出,這位演員通過他的藝術和他的坦率給世界留下了持久的影響。“他要把那個故事留在身后,他要用他的才華給很多人帶來很多快樂,”他總結道。“所以,我祝愿他的家人一切安好。”
Perry, 54, was found dead in a hot tub in his Los Angeles home last month. While a cause of death has not been determined, authorities said that they do not suspect foul play. Penn joins a collection of stars who have all paid tribute to the late actor, including his Friends castmates, Elliott Gould, Aisha Tyler, Maggie Wheeler, Sarah Paulson, and Hank Azaria.
54歲的派瑞上個月被發(fā)現(xiàn)死于洛杉磯家中的熱水浴缸中。雖然死因尚未確定,但當局表示,他們不懷疑是謀殺。潘和其他明星都向這位已故的演員表達了敬意,包括他的《老友記》劇組成員艾略特·古爾德、艾莎·泰勒、瑪吉·惠勒、莎拉·保爾森和漢克·阿扎里亞。
