帕特里克(英语) 斯图尔特昨天去世了，对于一个特定年龄的人，一点点的未来留给他。
对于斯图尔特在1990年代的电视作品《星际迷航：下一代》的粉丝们来说，有一种悲哀，那就是在比生命更广阔的队长让-吕克·皮卡尔的背后的人会被一个非常真实、非常令人心碎的病症所迷倒，据他的家人说，阿尔茨海默症和Lewy Body Dementia。
当然，斯图尔特远不止皮卡尔。 他主持X-Men电影的特许经营几十年来，他一直是台上的一个废墟。 但星舰进取号的指挥官皮克德船长(Picard)正是他最出名的角色。 在三年前刚结束的"下一代"的七季，四部电影和一出复兴剧——"星际迷航：皮克德"(Star Trek: Picard)中，他描绘了一个模型，描绘了成熟，负责任的成年对一代男孩来说可能像什么，这些男孩是书呆子，或者有点呆子。
两位环球网染色的星际迷航粉丝分享了皮卡尔船长和帕特里克·斯图尔特对他们的意义。
约翰·希利亚德(John Hilliard)：对于年轻且可能更聪明的一代来说，对一个在太空飞船上扮演一个法国人的秃头中年英国演员的放任可能是一个值得怀疑的生活选择。 但问题是：使斯图尔特和皮卡尔一样产生共鸣的是，他如何将角色根植于童话中最优秀的，情感上真实的。
杰森·劳林：我同意。 Picard看起来和10年后开始播映威望电视的复杂人物一样真实但与托尼·索波诺和沃尔特·怀特等反英雄不同的是，斯图尔特给了我们一个我们真正钦佩的细微的性格。 他爱他的工作。 他的激情如考古学，莎士比亚和音乐等。 他坚持自己的理想，即使这意味着可怕的个人牺牲。
过去20年来，在美国政治的混乱中
Picard 称，一位Joe McCarthy-esque上将开始在进取号上打猎。 “第一个环节是伪造的。 第一次言论遭到谴责，第一次思想被禁，第一次自由被否定，将我们所有人不可逆转地锁起来。”
他的性格在道德上明晰，斯图尔特在传达时的信念，结束了上将的恐怖统治。 如果只有现实世界的压迫能够如此容易地被消除的话。
JH：全面披露："星际迷航"是一出由Youtube所证明的节目，该节目硬地倚靠了乳胶前额，有时还虚伪地制作来讲述星际史克林贡斯和博格，罗慕兰斯和卡达斯等星际史克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克来克就像免费办公咖啡一样
JL：我的一个朋友有一个理论认为，如果你在18岁之前没有进入"星际旅行"，你永远不会真正得到它。
但对于斯图尔特来说，他有能力令人信服地描述弱势
有一集看到皮卡尔回到了自己在法国的家乡，从创伤性伤害中痊愈。
最后，斯图尔特放弃了作为他性格标志的控制，并因未能与攻击者相抗衡而倒入泥地，哭泣。 这是对一个被打断的人的生动、真实的描述。 斯图尔特通过与他的兄弟和解，从完全倒闭转变为缓慢恢复。 悲伤被取而代之的是温暖，斯图尔特完美地出售。
(笑声) 当然。 他知道怎么让那个节目对他起作用
尽管他面对一个巨型的柏油坑，或者他卖一个在科幻版的家庭车厢里吃三明治的或当他用压抑的斯考特(英语：Scotty (Scotty))来取自"星际迷航"原作"克克"，并分享有关初等工作和初等女友的故事时。 他连显示都穿了紧身衣，作为折扣埃罗尔·弗林·罗宾汉。
斯图尔特从小在电视上用融资在网络出现之前，就插入了一个像罗杰斯先生和鲍勃·罗斯这样的人物呈现出一个温柔，耐心和老师的男子气概的模型的世界。 斯图尔特用相似的脉搏演奏了皮卡尔，基本是每个人的"太空爸爸".
JL：这很尴尬，但第一个让我感动为泪的电视剧是"下一代".
“内光”使Picard在外星星球上作为一个不同的人经历了一生。 演员再次通过缓慢的启示发现他的性格人性，也许与妻子和孩子一起生活就像探索空间一样大冒险。
“抓住时间”,Picard 称在另一生中送给他的女儿。 “现在就活着！让现在成为最宝贵的时间现在再也不会来了。”
在剧集的最后，他揭示了自己在另一个生活里度过了数十年，这是他在不到一小时内所经历的幻觉。 他从那个世界里得到的唯一有形的东西就是他学的笛子在最后时刻，皮卡尔又演奏了一遍，没有说一个字斯图尔特演奏了绝对的心碎。
看到一位能够表达遗憾、悲伤和心痛的坚强而自信的领导人留下了持久的印象。
JH：想象一下你是个看电视的小孩，接下来是斯图尔特，完全安心的教学模式。 Wil Wheaton在试图掩盖自己在朋友死亡中的同谋时，斯图尔特，作为皮卡德，正在他身上。
Wheaton的性格，Wesley Crusher，和Picard可能拥有的儿子一样相去甚远，Stewart陷入了Picard的悲痛中
Picard告诉Wheaton, “不作为的谎言仍然是谎言。” 斯图尔特的声音裂痕，因为皮卡尔记得第一次见到了惠顿的角色。 他坐在皮卡尔的椅子上。 他知道船上的每一个按钮每一个功能他生气了，皮卡德咆哮。
斯图尔特拉回。 皮卡尔从不怀疑克洛斯会成长为杰出军官。 直到那一刻
称 Picard)，提供直肠出击。 “如果你无法在自己内部找到站起
如果你知道星际舰队是什么，斯图尔特总是发现一种将观众与情感真相联系起来的方法。
即使你不愿承认，你还是在找教训。 斯图尔特作为航海人心的大师，理解了时刻和他的角色。 最终，皮卡尔是一位老师，也是一位向导，不仅为与他分享一幕的人物，也为观众。
JL：斯图尔特开始出演皮卡尔时已经47岁了。 我比他年长一岁，家庭紧张是真实的和毁灭性的。 专业选择会产生持久的后果。 中年的忧郁停留在每一个快乐时刻的边缘
帕特里克·斯图尔特(Patrick Stewart)的"皮卡尔"(Picard)仍然作为榜样。 他展示了如何有尊严地、乐观地面对这些时刻，并相信我们有能力永远成为自己。

Patrick Stewart died yesterday, and for people of a certain age, a little bit of the future left with him.
For a certain, less-than-new generation of fans of Stewart’s 1990s television work on Star Trek: The Next Generation, there’s a sorrow that the man behind the larger-than-life Captain Jean-Luc Picard would be lost to a very real, very heartbreaking condition, Alzheimer’s and Lewy Body Dementia, according to his family.
Stewart, of course, was far more than Picard. He anchored the X-Men film franchise and was for decades a dynamo on stage. But there are reasons Captain Picard, commander of the Starship Enterprise, is the character he’s best known for. Over The Next Generation’s seven seasons, four movies, and a revival show —Star Trek: Picard — that ended just three years ago, he portrayed a model of what mature, responsible adulthood could look like for a generation of boys who were bookish, imaginitive, and maybe a little nerdy.
Two of the Globe’s dyed-in-the-wool Star Trek fans share what Captain Picard, and Patrick Stewart, meant to them.
John Hilliard: For a younger, and likely wiser generation, stanning a bald middle-aged English actor who played a French guy on a spaceship may be a questionable life choice. But here is the thing: What made Stewart resonate as Picard was how he rooted the character, as in the best of fairy tales, in emotional truth.
Jason Laughlin: I agree. Picard seemed as real as the complex characters that would start to populate prestige TV a decade later. But unlike anti-heroes such as Tony Soprano and Walter White, Stewart gave us a nuanced character we actually admired. He loved his job. He had passions like archaeology, Shakespeare, and music. He held to his ideals even when it meant terrible personal sacrifice.
In the mess of American politics over the past 20 years, there have been so many times I’ve longed for a Picard-style speech that makes right and wrong crystal clear.
“You know, there are some words I’ve known since I was a schoolboy,” Picard said when a Joe McCarthy-esque admiral began witch hunting on the Enterprise. “With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.”
His character’s moral clarity, and Stewart’s conviction in delivering it, put an end to the admiral’s reign of terror. If only real world oppression could be dispelled so easily.
JH: Full disclosure: Star Trek is a show, which Youtube will prove, that leaned hard on latex foreheads and sometimes-flimsy production to tell stories of intergalactic scallywags known as Klingons and Borg, Romulans and Cardassians. Like free office coffee, it’s an acquired taste.
JL: One of my friends has a theory that if you didn’t get into Star Trek before you’re 18 years old, you’re never really going to get it.
To me, what’s so accessible, and radical, about Stewart, though, was his ability to convincingly portray vulnerability while still maintaining Picard as a credible leader.
One episode saw Picard return to his home village in France to heal from a traumatic assault.
At the conclusion, Stewart surrenders the control that was his character’s hallmark and falls into the mud, sobbing, over his failure to fight off his assailants. It’s a raw, real, depiction of a broken man. Stewart shifts from total collapse into slow recovery by reconciling with his brother. Grief is replaced by warmth, and Stewart sells it perfectly.
JH: Totally. He knew how to make that show work for him.
That’s despite an episode where he faces off against a giant, talking tar pit. Or the one where he sells eating a sandwich in the sci-fi version of the family station wagon. Or when he chugs Ecto Cooler (remember Ecto Cooler?) with a depressed Scotty, from the original Star Trek, and shares stories about first jobs and first girlfriends. He even shows up in tights, as discount Errol Flynn Robin Hood.
As a kid raised on television before there was an Internet, Stewart plugged into a world where figures like Mr. Rogers and Bob Ross presented a model for manhood that was gentle, patient, and a teacher. Stewart played Picard in a similar vein, basically everyone’s Space Dad.
JL: This is embarrassing, but the first TV episode that moved me to tears was from The Next Generation.
“The Inner Light” has Picard experience an entire lifetime as a different person on an alien planet. Again, the actor found his character’s humanity through slow revelation that perhaps a life with a wife and children is just as big an adventure as exploring space.
“Seize the time,” Picard says to his daughter in this other life. “Live now! Make now always the most precious time. Now will never come again.”
At the end of the episode, it’s revealed the decades he spent in that other life were an illusion he experienced in less than an hour. The only tangible thing he has from that world is a flute he learned to play in that other life. In the final moments, Picard plays it again, and without saying a word Stewart plays absolute heartbreak.
Seeing a strong, confident leader who was able to express regrets, sadness, and heartache left a lasting impression.
JH: Imagine you’re a kid watching TV, and you feel kind of alone, unsure of yourself. And then there’s Stewart, in full reassuring teaching mode. It’s the episode where Wil Wheaton’s character is struggling with tremendous guilt as he tries to hide his complicity in the death of a friend. Stewart, as Picard, is on to him.
Wheaton’s character, Wesley Crusher, is as close to a son as Picard will likely ever have, and Stewart leans into Picard’s grief, grief from knowing that doing the right thing will likely destroy the younger man’s future.
“A lie of omission is still a lie,” Picard tells Wheaton. Stewart’s voice cracks as Picard remembers meeting Wheaton’s character for the first time. He sat in Picard’s chair. He knew every button on the ship, every function. He was annoyed, Picard growls.
Stewart pulls back. Picard never had any doubt that Crusher would grow up into an outstanding officer. Until that moment.
“The first duty of every Starfleet officer is to the truth, whether it’s scientific truth, or historical truth, or personal truth,” says Picard, who then delivers the gut punch. “If you can’t find it within yourself to stand up and tell the truth about what happened, you don’t deserve to wear that uniform.”
It doesn’t matter if you know what a Starfleet is, or if someone can be an officer of one. Stewart always finds a way to connect his audience to the emotional truth.
When you’re a kid, you’re looking for lessons, even if you don’t want to admit it. Stewart, as a master of navigating the human heart, understood the moment and his character. Ultimately, Picard was a teacher, and a guide, not just for the characters with whom he shared a scene, but for the audience as well.
JL: Stewart was 47 when he began playing Picard. I’m just a year older than him now, and the very best of his episodes have taken on new resonance. Family tensions are real and devastating. Professional choices have lasting consequences. The melancholy of middle age lingers on the periphery of every happy moment.
Patrick Stewart’s Picard still serves as a role model. He showed how to face those moments with dignity, optimism, and a belief in the enduring capacity to be our best selves.
