3.5. Surprised that there are such neat biopics in this era. The life of the characters is unfolded in an event-oriented manner. Starting from the reasons behind the creation of each book, it explains the important nodes in the life and also perfects the arc of the characters. It is no longer just a record presentation or simply arranging according to the timeline, but to reveal the motives that trigger the growth of the characters from a deep level, and truly connect the events and the characters. The growth of the characters is in a circular fashion, returning to the same image from the beginning to the end, from a passionate boy, rejecting junk literature and insisting on artistic creation, opening the road to the peak of life, but after becoming famous, he lost his original intention, and finally faced his conscience. Regain motivation, insist on speaking for justice, and become an immortal legend. The regressive characterization often highlights the theme from the beginning to the end. Everything encountered on the bumpy road of life makes it difficult for us to stick to the original goal. Zola insists on finding the truth, has the courage to challenge the system, and refuses to sacrifice individuals in front of the overall interests. , it is this dedication to faith that allows his ideas to be passed down, inspires everyone who pursues the truth, and makes justice be done
