フレンズ I ― ファースト・シーズン DVD セット vol.1

第6話に入りました。
最初のジョーイの劇でふと気付いたのですが、劇の終了時には明らかに客が減っています。
こういう細かいところまで見逃せないドラマです。

ジョーイがアルパチーノの映画のケツ役で出ると決まったときのチャンドラーの「crack your way into showbuisiness」とロスの「you gonna invite us all to the big opening?」で、観客がなぜどっと笑うのか分からなかったのですが、http://blogs.dion.ne.jp/friends_english/archives/1444401.htmlでRachさんの解説を読んで納得しました。
チャンドラーの「crack」「芸能界に割って入り込む」と「お尻の割れ目」をかけて、さらにその次のロスの「opening」が「映画の初演」と「お尻の穴」をかけていたのですね。
奥が深いです。

オーロラ役は、ソフィア・ミロスです。
