本文是经典爱情电影对白系列The Lake House(湖边小屋,又叫“触不到的恋人”)的第四段对白。
  2006年的情人节,2月14日,Kate和妈妈在Daley广场见面,此时的她并不知道,马路的对面,Alex正凝望着她,多么想走近她……一阵刺耳的紧急刹车声,一场车祸就在眼前。而kate还不知道死在她怀里的这个男人正是Alex……

  此时的Kate已经在芝加哥一家医院实习,但她是寂寞的。似乎每个人都是寂寞的,她母亲也是。母亲说:自从父亲逝去以后,对她来说,生活除了苦还是苦。但是她仍然保留了父亲生前最爱读的书,拿着这本书,好像父亲就在身边,翻开的还是那一页,读着的还是那段文字……

Kate:Sixty degrees on Valentine's Day. Can't be Chicago.

Kate's Mom:The TV says it's global warming. The icebergs start melting, water covers the Earth. Thank God we won't live to see it.

Kate:What's this?

Kate's Mom:That's nothing. It's one of your father's.

Kate:Dostoyevsky?

Kate's Mom:Oh, yeah. It's about a guy who breaks the neck of a poor woman with an axe and, so far, keeps wandering around regretting it. This is good.

Kate:Oh, yeah?

Kate's Mom:Yeah. Really good.

Kate's Mom:What are you thinking?

Kate:Nothing.

Kate's Mom:When your father passed away, it was hard. It still is hard. Holding his books, I feel like he's with me somehow knowing that he was once on the same pages, reading the same words.

passer-by:Oh, my God! Some body call an ambulance!

Kate:We need an ambulance at Daley Plaza. A man has been struck by a bus. Get an EMT crew here. Sir--

passer-by:Get out the street. Get on the sidewalk. On the sidewalk. Off the street. Get on the sidewalk! Get on the sidewalk!
