Emma Stone Suffered a Meltdown Over That ‘Dirty Dancing’ Lift in ‘Crazy, Stupid, Love’
Emma Stone glided on the big screen with so much grace in La La Land. She and Ryan Gosling even won Golden Globes for their fancy moves. But it wasn’t so easy behind the scenes.
Appearing on a recent TV Show, the dancing duo talked about Stone’s full-on meltdown while shooting a scene from Crazy, Stupid, Love. Who can forget when these two tried recreating the famous Dirty Dancing lift?
Stone said, “I don’t know however that I have an internalized phobia of being lifted over someone’s head at the height of about 6 feet.”
Meanwhile, Gosling’s recollection of the moment was definitely interesting. He said, “I’ve never had this happen, but I imagine if a possum fell out of a tree and tried to scratch your eyes out. It would be something similar.”
The actress admitted her phobia came from an unfortunate accident in her gymnastics class.

"我的内心几乎是崩溃的"英文怎么说?
这里的关键是崩溃,用英文怎么说?其实在这篇报道里就有出现。
Appearing on a recent TV Show, the dancing duo talked about Stone’s full-on meltdown while shooting a scene from Crazy, Stupid, Love.
没错!就是meltdown!Meltdown的一个最原本的含义是融化,比如说nuclear meltdown。另一个意义是价格的暴跌,或者是行业或经济的崩溃,比如: financial meltdown 。这里的用法,也是第二个意义的引申用法,指是精神上的崩溃。所以现在知道"我的内心几乎是崩溃的"怎么说了吧?当老板又让你加班时,勇敢的吐槽一句,come on… I almost had a meltdown!
