  • 5 horses for courses

    «Лошади для скаковых дорожек». Это выражение пришло из мира скачек, где все знают, что некоторые лошади всегда выступают лучше на определённых треках, скаковых кругах, ипподромах. В разговорной речи это выражение обозначает, что любой работе должен соответствовать определённый работник.

    He was given a job in the Statistics Department, which I would personally find extremely boring. But he has a background of mathematics and he loves working with figures. He should do well. Horses for courses, as they say. — Ему дали работу в отделе статистики, которую я бы счёл скучной. Но у него есть математическая подготовка, и он любит работать с числами. Эта работа для него. Как говорится, каждому коню своя дорожка.

    ‘He never looked after himself,’ Reeves said. ‘If he had he'd have been good for many a year yet.’ ‘Aye. And if wishes were horses, beggars would ride.’ He could never warm to Reeves. (J. Plunkett, ‘The Trusting and the Maimed’, ‘Mercy’) — - Мартин никогда о себе не думал, - сказал Ривс. - Если бы он больше о себе заботился, то прожил бы еще много лет. - Да. Конечно. Если бы да кабы во рту росли грибы. Фред никогда не испытывал расположения к Ривсу.

  • 10 They Shoot Horses, Don't They?

     Загнанных лошадей пристреливают, не так ли?
       1969 – США (121 мин)
         Произв. ABC (Ирвин Уинклер, Роберт Чартофф, Сидни Поллак)
         Реж. СИДНИ ПОЛЛАК
         Сцен. Джеймс По, Роберт Э. Томпсон по одноименному роману Хорэса Маккоя
         Опер. Филип Лэтроп (Panavision, DeLuxe Color)
         Муз. Джонни Грин
         В ролях Джейн Фонда (Глория), Майкл Сарразин (Роберт), Сюзанна Йорк (Элис), Джиг Янг (Роки), Ред Баттонз (моряк), Бонни Беделия (Руби), Майкл Конрад (Ролло), Брюс Дёрн (Джеймс), Роберт Филдз (Джоэл).
       1931 г., танцевальный марафон в Калифорнии. В обстановке финансового кризиса и всеобщей нищеты публика приходит поглазеть на зрелище (успокаивающее?) отчаянных бедняков, танцующих ради пригоршни монет, кидаемых из толпы, ради возможности попасть на глаза кинорежиссеру или продюсеру и ради призрачной награды в 1500 долларов, которая достанется лишь одной паре-победительнице (за вычетом организаторских расходов, о чем не догадываются большинство участников). Танцоры имеют право лишь на 10 мин отдыха в час. Время от времени, чтобы сократить количество участников и придать марафону зрелищности, организаторы устраивают «забеги»: бег наперегонки по кругу вдоль танцплощадки; 3 пары, пришедшие последними, выбывают из соревнования.
       Марафон уже давно миновал рубеж в 1000 часов, когда Глория, начинающая актриса, агрессивная и отчаянная, сменившая уже не 1 партнера на площадке, намеренно сходит с дистанции. Она уговаривает Роберта, случайного знакомого, с которым начала и закончила участие в конкурсе, помочь ей уйти из жизни. Он уступает ее желанию и стреляет ей в висок. Полицейским на допросе он говорит: «Загнанных лошадей пристреливают, не так ли?»
       ►  5-й фильм Сидни Поллака; довольно блистательная экранизация лучшего романа Хорэса Маккоя (1935). Сохранив верность повествовательной канве первоисточника, Поллак отставил всякие попытки соперничать с неумолимой трезвостью, бесстрастностью и язвительностью писателя. Он устранил эпизоды, выводившие действие за границы танцплощадки. Но главное – он заполнил «пробелы», которые иносказательный стиль Маккоя оставил на откуп воображению читателя. Вместо чеканной гравюры перед нами мелодрама с большим количеством действующих лиц (все сыграны великолепно), слез, страданий и крови, более лиричная, натуралистичная и поверхностно зрелищная, чем роман-первоисточник. Танцевальный марафон можно рассматривать как пессимистичную аллегорию человеческого существования или как чудовищную пародию на «struggle for life» («борьбу за выживание») и всю систему ценностей американской мечты, вывернутую наизнанку.
       Кроме того, фильм отражает противоречивое вдохновение, лежащее в основе большинства фильмов Поллака: зачастую поразительные энергичность и жизнелюбие рассказчика и драматурга сочетаются в нем с навязчивой тягой к деградации и смерти (еще одна картина Поллака, Бобби Дирфилд, Bobby Deerfield, 1977, также с крайней остротой выразит эту одержимость, это стремление к смерти в молодом, полном жизненной энергии герое). Для участников марафона, которых загнала на эту пытку нужда, продолжает существовать только одна «ценность»: их энергия – даже если она ведет их прямиком в ад и к полному разрушению. Поллак возносит энергии двусмысленную похвалу – по меркам испорченного мира, в котором она зарождается.
       Оригинальная идея «флэшфорвардов» (мгновенные броски в будущее), заменивших флэшбеки Маккоя. Таким образом, описание марафона периодически прерывается планами героя (Майкла Сарразина) под арестом, в тюремной камере и в зале суда. Только в финале мы понимаем, что эти вспышки хронологически расположены после окончания марафона и, следовательно, после окончания фильма. Идея настолько оригинальна, что почти не работает. Еще одно мастерское, еще более зрелищное и реалистичное описание танцевального марафона находится в фильме Коменчини Торговля белыми рабынями, La tratta delle bianche, 1952.
       БИБЛИОГРАФИЯ: текст книги Маккоя с раскадровкой (607 кадров) и диалогами фильма, предисловие С. Поллака (Avon Books, New York, 1969).

A horse was turned loose to wander at will for a year, attended by a guardian; when the horse entered a foreign country, the ruler was bound either to submit or to fight. In this way the horse returned at the end of a year, the guardian obtaining or enforcing the submission of princes whom he brought in his train. After the successful return of the horse, the rite called Asva- medha was performed amidst great rejoicings. It was believed that the performance of 1 such sacrifices would lead to the attainment of the seat or world of Indra, who is, therefore, always repre- sented as trying to prevent the completion of the hundredth sacrifice. cf.

    ( caballerango [kaßajeráŋgo] < caballo 'horse' < Latin caballum 'pack horse, nag' plus - ero, an agentive suffix, plus - ango, a despec-tive suffix)
        OED: 1888. The hand on a ranch or trail drive who cares for the herd of horses. This position was usually held by a young or inexperienced cowboy. This term appears in English as early as the sixteenth century, but with the very different meaning of 'disputant,' such as for the throne. The OED suggests that the term used in the West is a combination of the English term wrangler and the Spanish caballerango. It is also quite likely that the western term evolved without the influence of the original English term, which cowboys were probably not familiar with. Rather, it is possible that early cowboys heard caballerango and recognized the caballo element. Early variants, caballo rango or even horse rango, would have eventually been shortened to wrango and then wrangler. It is likely that the eventual spelling was influenced by the existing English word. The Royal Academy glosses caballerango as a Mexicanism for a servant on horseback. Santamaría gives a definition more similar to the western meaning. He defines it as the servant who, on a ranch or personal estate, keeps and saddles the horses.
        Alternate forms: caverango, horse-wrangler, wangler, wrangatang, wrango.
        Also called horse pestler, horse rustler, remudero.
       The hand that cares for the remuda, or herd of horses, by day.
       The wrangler who works the early morning shift.
       A cowboy who cares for horses, leads rides for guests, and perform other chores on a dude ranch.
       A boy employed for chores on a ranch.
       According to Adams, a common term for a lawyer.
