日媒民調：支持高市首相比例約反對者兩倍 年輕選民破5成相挺
Newtalk新聞 日本媒體《時事通信》稍早公佈最新民調，顯示如果自民黨總裁高市早苗當選首相，43.8%的受訪者表示將支持新內閣，年輕選民對其組閣的支持度更破5成。 《時事通信》在本月10日至13日對全日本2,000名18歲以上人士進行的民意調查顯示，支持高市擔任首相的比例（43.8%）幾乎是不支持者（23.0%）的兩倍，另有33.3%的受訪者表示不確定。 《時事通信》指出，相對於2021年10月岸田文雄組閣時的支持率（40.3%）及2024年10月石破茂組閣的支持率（28.0%），高市早苗顯然更受期待。 從年齡層來看，高市早苗在年輕人中人氣較高，18至29歲年齡層的受訪者支持率為58.0%，30多歲年齡層的受訪者支持率為51.5%。從政黨傾向分析，保守派對她的支持率明顯上升，自民黨人支持她的比例為66.4%，參政黨人支持她的比例為71.4%，日本保守黨人支持她的比例為72.7%。 高市執政潛在盟友的日本維新會和國民民主黨的支持者，對她支持率分別為38.1%和56.8%。而退出聯合政府的公明黨支持者中，40.6%的人表示不支持，高於支持率15.6%。立憲民主黨支持者中，只有16.3%的人相挺高市。 政黨支持率方面，自民黨以19.7%的成績領先，較上月上升2.6%。參政黨支持率為4.8%（下降1.1％），連續第三個月成為最大的在野黨。立憲民主黨支持率為4.2%（下降1.1％）。國民民主黨支持率為3.8%（上升0.4％）。。緊隨其後的是公明黨（2.8%）、日本維新會（1.8%）、令和新選組（1.5%）、共產黨（0.9%）、日本保守黨（0.9%）、未來陣營（0.7%）和社會民主黨（0.6%）。延伸閱讀：高市早苗會吉村洋文！矢板明夫：確定了第一位女首相的歷史性時刻爭組閣 野田佳彥與高市早苗各自出招給內閣官位就聯盟! 在野分裂 日維新會露骨表態 高市早苗首相之位穩了台灣應發展「台美聯合艦隊」 林佳龍：高市早苗戰略觀相承安倍日本新政府》保持影響力比較實在 玉木雄一郎傾向不組閣日本海上自衛隊最新潛艦「蒼鯨」命名下水 預定2027年入列服役
綠光劇團近年最震撼人心作品！ 《八月，在我家》11月席捲高雄衛武營
Newtalk新聞 一場因告別而被迫的團聚，二層樓房子搬上舞台，13位實力派演員同場飆戲，180分鐘直擊家庭真相，綠光劇團世界劇場《八月，在我家》9月台北首演佳評如潮，叫好叫座一票難求，11月7~9日將南下於衛武營演出，導演吳定謙、演員王琄、張丹瑋、劇本翻譯吳政翰16日出席高雄記者會宣傳今年最震撼人心的大戲。吳定謙把家搬上舞台，一座「兩層樓剖面房子」讓觀眾宛如偷窺者，當愛與真相同桌，每個人都得面對難以逃避的凝視。 笑聲與淚水共存，讓人痛到笑、笑到哭的《八月，在我家》描述父親下落成謎後，三個女兒返家，面對母親掀起塵封多年的真相，姊妹們也卸下壓抑的沉默，家庭風暴一發不可收拾。這齣改編自普立茲得獎作品，綠光劇團睽違11年後再度重演，由王琄、吳念真、姚坤君、顏嘉樂、鄧安寧、朱宏章、張丹瑋、梁正群、張晴、黃士勛、鄧雨忱、Miyaw Sika洪淳晨、王芝方等共同攜手演出。 不論是藝文界前輩、戲劇專業人士、影劇圈及各界KOL，皆盛讚《八月，在我家》是「多年來最震撼人心的作品」。作家廖玉蕙分享「演員是一流的精彩，喧鬧的言辭交鋒，節奏感被絕對掌握；優秀的演員在聲嘶力竭中宣洩劇中人的傷痛，在駭笑裡凸顯事件的荒謬。這一場無止盡的深層挖掘，堪稱撕心裂肺。」 吳定謙表示，《八月，在我家》來自綠光世界劇場系列，這樣的寫實戲劇文本，用厚實的角色基底和劇情，喚醒觀眾對於原生家庭的省思，也許觀眾在觀劇過程中得到療癒和釋放，而舞台視覺保留寫實基調，還原台灣七零年代建築元素細節，台上的兩層樓剖面房子，讓你宛如偷窺鄰居吵架，真實的既視感。舞台上圓桌置換原著中西方場景的長桌，彰顯台灣傳統家庭在飯桌上的輩份高低和人物的性格強弱與利害關係。 吳定謙說，家是人類一個跨越時空地域的共同主題，《八月，在我家》讓台灣觀眾欣賞的同時，減少隔閡並快速融入劇情核心，就像是吳念真所詮釋的父親在戲的一開頭所說的「恁爸，活得有夠siān(厭倦)！」符合時空當下背景、不突兀的落地轉譯。 從「口腔癌毒癮母親」到情緒風暴核心，王琄以撕裂之姿詮釋「沒得恨」的痛，被稱為教科書等級演員的王琄，劇中飾演患有口腔癌、吸毒成癮且脾氣暴躁的母親麗容，而她也就是這場家庭風暴的核心人物。她的一句「沒什麼事情瞞得過我」成了家庭崩解的始作俑者。王琄對角色自我剖析一番表示「每個人都有困境，解決的方式跟能力都不一樣，自己詮釋的媽媽一角，就是一個有話不能說的人，而造成最大痛苦的人就是失蹤的先生，因為他的消失，讓麗容沒得恨，這對她來說是多麼大的失落。」 王琄接著說道，《八月，在我家》戲裡的家庭關係的每個人，都處在認為別人可以接得住自己的情緒，而因此恣意妄為，但真實的我希望有不同的版本可以選擇，希望可以有進步的機會，只要有一個人沉靜下來給予空間，這樣的關係就不會像劇中家庭一樣的極致。 即便是11年前的轉譯作品，擔任《八月，在我家》劇本翻譯的吳政翰，花了許多時間與導演共同調整了劇本。他表示「語言反映生活與時代，當社會與溝通方式改變，人跟家庭的關係其實不太會變，但語言會，10年前的說法與語感，與現在的時代語言已經很不一樣。」從翻譯到在地化，吳政翰最重視的是「台灣人講話的語法」，讓台詞更像「台灣人講話」而不是照字面直譯原文，英文翻譯腔是最不能出現的，劇場語言必須自然，要讓演員講得順、觀眾聽得懂。延伸閱讀：摩瑟水晶全球限量作品台灣首發 古典雕刻大師巡迴展出扛鼎之作 陳其邁上任減債201億 六都還債第2多主張多層次傳銷透明化 林岱樺促公平會建置誠信業者名單搭BP熱潮掀選戰話題 邱議瑩粉紅看板亮相超吸睛唐復年觀點》不選黨主席仍舊搏版面 盧秀燕早已在累積和解資本快訊》雷雨又急又猛！氣象署：3縣市大雨特報
