奈飞将投拍一部动作喜剧片《可卡因河马》,请看本报昨日的报道: Netflix has picked up comedy package “Cocaine Hippos,” with comedian Jermaine Fowler set to star. The story, which comes from writer Jordan VanDina who is also writing the script, was inspired by the hippopotamuses that were brought into Colombia from Africa in the 1980s to populate the palatial estate of drug lord Pablo Escobar. When Escobar was killed in 1993, his menagerie of animals were taken to zoos or sold, save for the hippos, who were left to their own devices and populated, becoming an invasive species. “Hippos” will follow a group of friends who stumble across a clue leading to Escobar’s lost treasure. They then embark on a wild trip that pits them against con men, local drug lords and the deadly hippos that he smuggled into Colombia back in the ‘80s. 报道中的save for就是“除了”的意思。例如: The park was deserted save for a few joggers. 除了几个慢跑者,公园里空寂无人。 |
