新奇事件簿 《迷失Z城》吓坏农场牲畜
A movie produced by Hollywood actor Brad Pitt has made the headlines for scaring farm animals. Filming is taking place in the countryside in Northern Ireland in the U.K. The movie is called 'The Lost City of Z' and is set in the 1920s. It is about a British soldier and spy who disappeared into the Brazilian jungle in 1925 with his son. They were searching for a lost civilisation, which the soldier called Z. He was never seen again. Film makers needed to create explosions and other loud noises for the movie's special effects. However, locals and farmers in the town of Ballygally complained that the loud bangs frightened their animals. No one knows if Mr Pitt was in the town at the time as he is not acting in the film.
由好莱坞演员布拉德·皮特制作的电影吓坏了农场动物，而也因此上了头版头条。电影正在英国北爱尔兰的乡村进行拍摄。该电影名叫《迷失Z城》，故事发生在20世纪20年代。影片讲述的是1925年，一名英国士兵，间谍以及儿子在森林中神秘消失的故事。他们一直在寻找那消失的文明，士兵把它称之为“Z”。而他却永远消失了。电影制作方需要利用爆破，以及巨大声响来制造特效。然而，生活在巴里加里城镇的居民和农民抱怨道，巨大声响吓坏了他们的牲畜。不知道皮特先生当时在不在场，因为他将不会出演此片。
Local people in the town said the explosions began on September 14 and gradually became bigger and louder. Some locals said it sounded like there was a war going on as the noise shook windows in houses. One farmer spoke to reporters about how his animals were "terrified". He said: "The dog was shivering under a chair and the hens had all gone. Then I heard there had been another explosion while I was out….Another neighbour’s cow and calf jumped the hedge and the cows were crying in fear." Mr Pitt may do something special for the local people as he is a famous animal rights activist and might be upset if he heard animals had suffered because of his film.
当地居民称，9月14日开始出现爆炸声，之后声音越来越响。许多当地居民称，这听起来就像是一场战争，噪音使得房屋玻璃都震颤起来。一位农民对记者诉说了牲畜受惊的情况。他称：“狗在椅子底下发抖，母鸡都死了。当我出家门时又听见了第二声爆炸声。邻居家的奶牛和牛犊跳出了围栏，奶牛嚎叫着。”皮特先生是一位著名的动物权利保护人士，他或许会对当地居民提供帮助，如果当他知道是因为拍电影而让动物受到惊吓，他也会坐立不安的。
