Because the original work is so vast, it is quite difficult to compress it into a two-hour movie, and the descriptions of more than 100 characters in the original work have also been removed. The director condensed the performance of three people into an extramarital affair, how frivolous. And the descriptions of other characters were only taken for a short period of time, which made the extramarital affair even more bland and ridiculous. This is a prominent idea of pursuing independence and equality, but you can watch the film It looks like a woman who has been smothered in morality.
In the original book, Konstantin Levin's road of love and the road of seeking revolution are also one of the main lines, but the film has too little description, love: directly talking about marriage proposal, failure , was matched, met again, succeeded, had a child. In the original book, there is a clear contrast between Constantine's ending and Anna's ending to highlight Anna's tragedy. But the film did not show this contrast well.
However, the concept of the film is also worthy of admiration. Because of the gorgeousness of the stage and costumes, it shows the feudalism of the feudal system in the Tsarist Russia era, under the apparent prosperity of the remnants of the upper-class aristocracy, the decay of feudal thought. Rendered as a song and dance performance, the movements are elegant, and everyone's movements are very similar, and in the place where Duke Oblonsky works, you can see an interesting scene, a group of people with stamping as the rhythm, the action of flipping the official document gorgeously and exaggeratedly It is very consistent, and at this time, Konstantin Levin is talking with Duke Oblonsky about his love, which is Konstantin's disdain for feudalism. Another scene is in Konstantin Levin's countryside At home, the serfs were neatly harvesting in a beautiful arc in the sun. Although Russia had been hit by capitalism in the 1870s and 1880s, the serfs were not the vanguard of ideas after all. These two scenes clearly show that The far-reaching influence of the feudal society and the perfect compromise of the system by the people who suffered from it. As a foil, Vronsky and Anna's desire to pursue freedom, love, and equality and independence is clearly shown, and Konstantin as the The young master's personal participation in the labor of the serfs can also illustrate his desire and search for new ideas, new systems, and abandonment of old ideas. Of course, this is Tolstoy's successful description, and in the film, Constantine, who is in the dark The pioneers of thinking in the film are cowardly and pedantic because of how cowardly and pedantic the actors' performances are. Of course, this film also has its bright spots due to Keira Knightley's more tense performances.
Overall, the performance of the story is careless. , which was clumsily pieced together from several fragments of stage musicals into a movie with a vague story. It is so easy to prove that the audience is not optimistic about the movie adaptation of the famous novel. It can only be said that the director, you chose the wrong paragraph , entertain yourself.
