2 larger than life

(larger (амер. bigger) than life (или life-size))

преувеличенный; неестественный, театральный; исполинский, легендарный ( отсюда larger-than-life) [букв. бо/льших размеров, чем в жизни]

His mind... saw everything a little larger than life-size. (W. S. Maugham, ‘Of Human Bondage’, ch. XXIX) — Ум Хейуорда... воспринимал все чуть-чуть в преувеличенном виде.

...an instant later the hand reappeared on the screen as if it had materialized from the magic of legends, larger than life, but poignantly familiar from the countless times those fingers had stroked his hair, caressed his face and touched his lips. (M. Wilson, ‘My Brother, My Enemy’, ch. X) —...через секунду на экране, как воплощение волшебной сказки, опять возникла рука, более крупная, чем в жизни, но мучительно знакомая - ведь столько раз эти пальцы гладили его волосы, ласкали лицо, дотрагивались до его губ.

It had been for Andrew an axiom that Pat was a little larger than life and far too dignified and authoritative... (I. Murdoch, ‘The Red and the Green’, ch. 4) — Для Эндрю всегда было аксиомой, что Пат не такой, как все, - слишком уж он гордый и властный...

Several Senators, stopped to congratulate him, their gestures slightly larger than life: each aware of the hundreds of watching eyes. (G. Vidal, ‘Washington, D. C.’, part I, ch. II) — Несколько сенаторов приветствовали Бердена преувеличенно размашистыми жестами: каждый знал, что за ним наблюдают сотни глаз.

Liz noticed with amusement that her aunt was unusually animated and that her voice had a touch of excitement in it. Funny, her generation reacted to males as though they were all bigger than life-size. (D. Cusack, ‘The Sun Is Not Enough’, ch. 14) — Лиз улыбнулась про себя, заметив оживление тетки и волнение в ее голосе. Забавно, как реагирует на мужчин ее поколение - словно они существа высшего порядка.
