点评:We searched for interesting things to do on our route through Indiana and saw the James Dean Museum in his hometown of Fairmount. Our visit was surprisingly fascinating, largely due to walking through the displays with Dorothy ( docent and world class Dean expert). Her stories were well -researched and provided detailed context that enhanced our experience with the large collection of art, possessions and artifacts in the displays. We felt very fortunate to be there on a day when Dorothy had time to walk with us through the Museum. Her passion for the life and varied talents of Jimmie Dean made the 90 minute visit memorable and inspired us to consider coming to the Dean Festival in late September. We visited Dean’s gravesite on our way out of town and the whole experience was very worthwhile. We will go back and watch his three films again for new insight.
翻译:我们在穿越印第安纳州的旅途中寻找有趣的景点,结果发现了位于詹姆斯·迪恩的家乡费尔蒙特的詹姆斯·迪恩博物馆。我们的参观体验出奇地精彩,这很大程度上要归功于多萝西的陪伴与讲解——她既是博物馆讲解员,也是世界级的詹姆斯·迪恩研究专家。她所讲述的故事都经过了深入考证,为我们提供了丰富的背景知识,从而让我们能够更好地欣赏博物馆中陈列的大量艺术品、物品及文物。我们深感幸运,能在多萝西有空陪同我们参观博物馆的那天前往。她对吉米·迪恩的生平及其多方面才华充满热情,使得这90分钟的参观变得令人难忘。这次经历也激励我们考虑在九月下旬去参加迪恩电影节。离开小镇时,我们还去拜谒了迪恩的墓碑。整个体验实在非常值得。日后我们还会再去看他的三部电影,希望能从中获得新的感悟。
