      Chopin and George Sand

      The movie "Spring Sonata" came with Chopin's romantic poems and composed this love story.

      Chopin's famous piano piece "Prelude in A major" was composed around 1838; during this time he fell in love with George Sand, the most unique female writer in France at the time. Since then, the two have spent a wonderful ten years together, during which some of Chopin's most fascinating movements were born.

      There are multiple versions of George Sand on the screen. Sophie Marceau focuses on...

      Europe from the Renaissance to the eve of World War II is always fascinating

      George Sand, this inconspicuous short woman, who has been romantic all her life, can be called a reaper of talents and celebrities. Musset, Chopin, Liszt, Mérimée, Flaubert, Dumas, Balzac, etc., were all once The minister under the skirt. There are stallions today, and there are butterflies in ancient times. George Sang's pursuit of sex, later Mu Zimei and others can only look at. This woman definitely deserves a movie.

      Chopin, the piano poet, the cannon in the flowers, not only has...

      Once upon the good time

      It's a very suitable movie to watch before going to bed, a light-hearted romantic comedy, and a sex-turned version of the story of "you chase me and run away". Chopin is a peerless composer and a cowardly man in the three dimensions, George Sand is a pragmatist writer and a charismatic person who boldly shows love. A romantic story of a female A male O.

      Some moving lines:

      ——I'm not full of virtues and noble qualities.

      Weak Hugg VS. Brave Mrs. Sang

      Romantic comedies tend to focus more on women's perspectives, but this does not mean that the heroine should have more drama than the male lead, but should give the male lead more opportunities to be affectionate.

      Poor Hugh, who can only cough and get weak in the limited footage.

      As for the actress of the heroine... will it be too decadent?

      Mrs. Sang is a typical intellectual woman, and all female audiences who are intelligent or think they are intelligent will...

      Spring sings, lingers forever

      Mrs. Sang, wears men's clothes, rides a horse, smokes, writes and speaks less;

      Chopin, weak, does not like opening windows, outdoor activities, immersed in the world of music

      Uncle Hugh is so handsome when he is young, he plays Chopin's illness and weakness

      Mrs. Sang, this woman who lives in her own world, dares to love and hate. Although she is a woman, she is stronger and more manly than a man. If she doesn't love her, she divorces her ex-husband and breaks up with her...

      British people shoot classical love with an Austin flavor. Hugh Grant's version of Chopin is a bit too beautiful. George Sand, a woman who smokes, drinks, rides, hunts, wears men's clothes, is really sassy. Her mediocre appearance makes all the big players jealous. It can be seen that personality and talent are more important than...

      Four points in art, plot? It doesn't matter if it's real or not. It feels like George Sand's big heroine. She's so handsome. The styles in it look good in both men's and women's clothes. The pretentious countess played by Aunt Thompson is so funny. George Sand's daughter is also very cool, Judy's voice is nice, I feel that Chopin played by Hugh Grant has the same purpose as her husband in the bitter...

      Very hilarious comedy. Joking about Chopin & Madame San & Liszt. JD deserves to be the merlye street of Australia! Temperament A burst! Hugh's restrained style is very suitable for playing the sickly Miss Chopin! JS's Liszt is very good, just like Liszt himself in the oil painting. It's a pity that he didn't play Lester in "Interview with the Vampire" in 1994! And the duck voice of the Duchess... The film obviously demoted Li...
