      Alternative Deconstruction of Classics

      Anyone who knows a little about French literature knows Madame Bovary, a novel written by French writer Flaubert in 1857.

      The story must be familiar to everyone. The peasant girl Emma, ​​with a little education, falls into rosy fantasy all day long. She despised her husband, Bovary, who was a village doctor, and dreamed of a legendary love. But her two-time affair, far from bringing her happiness,...

      Closer to home, the title of the movie will naturally be associated with Flaubert's "Madame Bovary" (one of the protagonists is also so obsessed). France has "Madame Bovary", Russia has "Anna Karenina", and Spain has "Madame the President" (maybe not too famous, I wrote one before and felt anti-religion, realism, feminism , insert a sentence, The heroine of "The President's Lady" is...

      trance feeling

      I want to watch the movie "Madame Bovary", and I found the new Madame Bovary. The story takes place in the beautiful countryside where Flaubert completed his masterpiece. The same place is also called Bovary, but the era is modern, and there is no earl squire , only the charming old man who makes bread next door and the handsome young man with family property are always in a trance when they read it, it is the original story of Madame Bovary, but the ringtone of the iphone and the wine from the...

      She's so beautiful, so sexy, so approachable, yet so far, so elusive

      I find that now that I am older, I prefer to watch quieter films. Movies like Fast and Furious, to me, are more like anti-Japanese dramas. Or films like The Beast and the Beauty, which celebrate innocence and beauty, and the good and the bad are clear.

      And Europe seems to have some quieter films. The things they tell are very ordinary and trivial, but they can evoke some small feelings about life and society. After watching it, I smiled softly from the bottom of my heart-----then I...

      Instead of a pure copy, the narrative is completed through Martin's author's eyes, and it is full of literary flavor. At the end of the film, Martin once again invades the lives of others with a kind and harmless image, and the previous absurdity is swept away, leaving only the echoes of thought-provoking questioning. The heroine's derailment and passion scenes are too childish, but they are not the focus of the director's...

      This is a famous town, Madame Bovary choked on bread, Anna Karenina goes online at the end, and the old man's son is named Julian. Isn't this the hero of "Red and Black", so dramatic. The whole painting style is very beautiful, the French is small and fresh, romantic, and the rhythm is soothing. It is good to appreciate the scenery and the beauty of the...

    The heroine of "Gemma Bovery" and the heroine of the novel "Mrs. Bovary" Emma have similar names, which reminds the audience that they will also have the same tragic fate. However, the ending of the film is absurd and reasonable. It seems absurd to be choked to death by bread, but because of the obstruction of her husband Charlie, she missed the best treatment period, which led to the death of Gemma. There will be results. The film is...
