简介: This 7-year series chronicled the adventures of the Impossible Mission Taskforce (IMF), a team of government spies and specialists who were assigned "impossible missions" by the unseen "Secretary". Although the cast varied over the years, the main characters included The Team Leader (Dan Briggs the first season, then Jim Phelps the other six), The Techno-Wizard (Barney Collier), The Strongman (Willy Armitage), The Master of Disguise (first Rollin Hand, then The Amazing Paris), and The Femme Fatale (Cinnamon Carter, Casey, Dana Lambert, Mimi Davis). The series is best known for its opening mission assignment (conducted by a pre-recorded tape), the theme composed by Lalo Schifrin, the leader's selection of mission agents from a dossier, the opening briefing, the intricate use of disguises and a typical "mask pulloff" scene near the end of most episodes, and the relative lack of characterization of the characters.

简介: 《'Allo 'Allo》是BBC在1980年代到90年代期间拍摄的一套著名电视喜剧系列片,从1982年到1992年在BBC电视台播放,共85集。 这部电视剧的背景是二战期间纳粹德国占领下的一个法国小村庄上,围绕着一家小餐馆写的故事。中心人物是咖啡馆老板René Artois。纳粹占领军抢劫了村子里所有的有价值的艺术品。 其中包括一幅号称是名家范•克洛普的油画《The Fallen Madonna with the Big Boobies》。当地德军指挥官决定把这幅画归为己有,强迫Rene把画藏在他的咖啡馆里。可是,纳粹德国领袖希特勒也想得到这幅画,派了一个盖世太保军官前去寻找这幅画,而这个盖世太保也想自己猫腻这幅画。与此同时,出现了若干这幅油画的赝品。于是,一场场好戏和闹剧就这样展开了。 这部电视剧的另一条主线是两个被迫降落在该地的英国飞行员躲在René的咖啡馆里。当地全女性法国抵抗组织设法把这两位英国飞行员安全送回英国。但是,计划屡屡出漏子,也闹出了不少笑话。 似乎这一切还不够乱,René是个花心男人。跟咖啡馆里的两个女招待私下偷情,千方百计要瞒过自己的老婆。锦上添花,或雪上加霜的是,抵抗组织的女首领似乎爱上了René!另外,一个有点同性恋倾向的德国军官也看上了这位咖啡馆老板,总是向他暗送秋波。 《'Allo 'Allo》的情节错综复杂,笑料百出,而该剧最精彩的因素之一是它的语言。 在这部电视剧里,不仅有法国人、德国人、英国人,另外还有意大利人。如何解决语言问题呢?电视剧的制作人想出了绝妙的方法 – 所有角色都说英语,但是都带上浓重的本国口音。这些不同的角色,说着不同口音的英语,使得整出剧更加令人发笑和多姿多彩。
