8. Bedtime for Bonzo
《君子紅顏》

As President, he ended the Cold War. But Ronald Regan's greatest cinematic accomplishment saw him dealing with a conflict of a completely different kind: the question of nature versus nurture, as explored through the upbringing of a kooky, pajama-wearing chimpanzee. The 1951 comedy Bedtime for Bonzostarred the then-future leader of the free world as Professor Peter Boyd, who attempts to raise a chimp and teach it human behavior to solve the age-old quandry of whether an individual's innate qualities or life experiences matter most in their personal development. And of course there's a lady-friend that gets mixed up in the shenanigans... Boyd hires a woman (Diana Lynn) to pose as Bonzo's mother, while he plays the father.
作為總統(tǒng)，里根結束了冷戰(zhàn)。但在這部奠定他影史地位的影片中，里根卻要面對一個完全不同的棘手問題：通過養(yǎng)育猴子來探究“先天”和“后天”對人性的影響。《君子紅顏》拍攝于1951年，彼時的里根尚未登上總統(tǒng)寶座。他在片中飾演皮特·伯義德教授，養(yǎng)了一只行為古怪、喜穿睡衣的大猩猩。伯義德試圖教這只猩猩從事人類行為，進而探究在人類發(fā)展過程中，到底是先天因素占主導，還是后天經(jīng)歷更重要。當然，此類插科打諢的電影少不了一位女主……伯義德雇了一名女助手（戴安娜·琳飾）扮演猩猩的生母，自己則扮演生父。

Banana Bonus: Ronald Regan bottle-feeding a chimp!
看點：羅納德·里根給猩猩喂奶！（別誤會，是用奶瓶喂的。）
