Ang Lee once said that this film is more suitable to be called "Intelligence and Sensibility". The story he presented did not deliberately highlight the contradiction between "rationality and emotion", but used it as two separate main lines, showing his sister's forbearance and emotion separately. Restraint and rationality, sister's innocence and yearning for love. The elder sister did not blame the younger sister for her ignorance of the world, and the younger sister did not despise her too prudent and conservative.
Compared with the lack of plot in the BBC version, this version grasps the plot appropriately, without procrastination and disconnection, as if the story itself is being told slowly (the best screenplay Oscar is really worthy of the name~~~). The only point is that Eleanor and Edward have too few scenes together, and I don't see that they have both fallen in love, at most, they are attracted to each other, looking forward to further development, as Eleanor herself said "I like him~~", of course It can also be seen that the two fell in love at first sight, and this kind of treatment can better reflect the forbearance of the sister. On the other hand, it is precisely because of the control of time that there are many ingenious little plots in the film. For example, when the sisters lived in London, the bell ringing in the middle of the night fully expressed Marianne's anxiety and urgency; Margaret's sentence "He knelt down Let's go~", the rest of the imagination is left to the audience~~~ From this, it can be seen that Ang Lee has a great grasp of the overall situation and details!
As for the actors, Emma's performance was almost perfect, but she was really old, especially when she posed with her sister's round face, and among the mother and daughter, she was the tallest and more mature. It's really unfair, it's her experience that allows her to shape her sister with ease, but it's also true that some pictures look like a mother of two children. From the story itself, Eleanor, as the eldest daughter, was originally a sister. Mother's responsibility~~ After all, face and appearance are really important! !
The same principle applies to the Colonel. He really looks very old, his face feels a little broken, and for Marianne's love, I also feel that I was attracted to it at first, and then I fell in love deeply~~love Deep, tepid, and even a little dissociated, maybe this is the real gentleman's demeanor!
Because of the pretty white shirt collar, I felt for a moment that Edward and Robert were really brothers, with chubby chins on the collar, looking fat and mentally handicapped. Edward in the play is too indecisive and doesn't show much charm (except for being nice to the Eleanor family), and the performance of yearning for the priesthood is more like a lack of ambition and no responsibility. Therefore, I can't understand the love between the two of them~~~
Charlotte's husband is full of bright spots (Dr. House~~), not in a hurry, not in a hurry, but also with a mocking sentence after his wife's words, But gently handed a cup of tea to the restless Eleanor by the window.
There are many classic pictures that touch people's hearts: Edward and Eleanor walking side by side~~ Willoughby is holding Marianne and laughing happily~~ Eleanor is sitting at the entrance of the stairs and can only take a sip of tea. Back view ~~Marianne murmured in the rain the sonnet that the two of them had read together~~~In the last scene, Willoughby looked uncertain from afar~~~
I saw more saturated colors of the BBC and always beautiful Very British scene, I always feel that this film is a bit bleak, the depressing weather, the remote and desolate cottages, the simple and dark clothes, and even the large green grass is not lively, but makes people feel gloomy. open. But if you think about it carefully, all of these are orthodox British style, and a love story mixed with reason and emotion is staged in the rainy day~~~
