what did miss love do right
——Watch the 2011 version of the movie "Jane Eyre"
Jane Eyre, a character created by the British female writer Charlotte Bronte in 1847, has not been forgotten after nearly two centuries of changes in the world. In 2011, it was the 18th time that this story appeared on the big screen. In this version, directors and actors came from all over the world. Everyone gathered together to once again present the image of an unpretentious, short and thin girl who grew up alone in this small British place. What is it that makes Miss Ai so powerful, that she can break through time, culture, and civilization, and move people again and again?
When I first read the book "Jane Eyre", I was eleven or twelve years old. At that time, I felt that the former was too bitter compared to "Pride and Prejudice". However, as I grew up, the influence of the latter on me became less and less. Go, "Jane Eyre" can be read every few years. In retrospect, it can even be said that Miss Ai enlightened me about self-love, self-esteem, and self-reliance, and also influenced my pursuit of courage and tenacity, and gave me an important background to my spiritual world.
In this version of the 2011 film, Jane Eyre opened the door to escape from Thornfield House. This imagery lifted Miss Ai out of her long passive and powerless state in the original novel, with a fresh awakening. of vitality. Even those of us who are familiar with the story will be hooked. Jane Eyre has just made the most important decision of her life, fleeing Mr. Rochester, who brought her warmth, and rushing into the dark, icy wasteland and the unknown.
What life choices did a penniless young woman like Miss Love have in the 19th century? If she hadn't gotten more education and read more books, she probably wouldn't have escaped the fate of Tess of the D'Urbervilles, or Maslova of Resurrection. Even Charlotte Brontë, who gave her a fearless temperament, had to give her another huge inheritance in the original book, as a compromise to reality, in order to support Jane Eyre's Cinderella style legend. In this way, Miss Ai's escape itself was actually an act of resistance that was almost suicidal.
In the film, along with Jane Eyre's escape, a low and windy cello sounded, which made people feel distressed, and the Thornfield House in the background became bigger, older and more gloomy. Even on those most sunny and pleasant days, the tones are cool, and spring looks hazy. Sometimes the wind whistles in the film, making people feel cold across the screen. Australian actress Mia Wasikowska's version of Jane Eyre, who had just turned 20 years old, was mediocre and a little tall at first, but I soon realized that she might be the Miss Eyre that best fits my impression. In the previous versions of "Jane Eyre", the actors were either too beautiful, too mature, or too lively. Mia's Jane Eyre was just right young, thin, and sad, serious and firm enough. When she frowned and looked out the window, worrying about her nowhere to put her wings bound by the rules of life, Miss Ai was very close to us.
There are many subjective shots in this film. I looked out through the window many times, and I couldn't help but spread the feeling of wanting to rush out. The selection of the scenes is almost all around Jane Eyre, and the secondary characters and events are simplified. Many people don't even give a close-up view. Even Mr. Rochester has become an object of Miss Eyre. This personal approach, handing over the power to control her own destiny back to Jane Eyre, is more dynamic.
From the subjective perspective of Miss Ai, the film makes some choices on the plot of the original book. The childhood part only appears in flashbacks. The first half uses flashbacks to recall the past, and the story is compact. In the past, Mr. Rochester, who was moved by his infatuation, turned his strength into a supporting role in this film by playing the role of Fa Shark. Their love story now makes it clear that Mr Rochester's original intention was to deceive. The eagerness and rudeness he shows at the wedding in the film makes this mentality clear. Fa Shark's performance also aggravated this sense of hypocrisy strangely, as if he didn't believe what he said in the lines. This makes Mr. Rochester's charm completely dissipated, and his hard-to-play becomes a kind of strange interest, and his warmth does not seem to be spontaneous, but for the display of self-help. This is indeed an intriguing change. It is because of the rise of Miss Eyre's sense of independence that Mr. Rochester's cowardice has come.
Jane Eyre is still the same Jane Eyre, but with a different focus, it is worth watching again. There are two deletions from the original work in the film, which are deeply in my heart. The first is to change the relative relationship between the priest's family and Jane Eyre. The coincidence in the original book is indeed abrupt. Because of this, Miss Ai has become an overly lucky son of heaven, which weakens the credibility of the story. . The second is to delete the life of Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester after they reunited. Although this part is only mentioned in the original book, but this point is too much to add to the hardships, the lovers finally get married, and since then Living a happy life out of the superficial. If it was just because of a battered childhood, a sour love and a quiet family life afterward, Jane Eyre would have disappeared in time and space. In fact, it is because Miss Ai has the courage to open the door to escape, because she respects herself and adheres to the principles of life, and dares to fight regardless of the cost, that we will cross a hundred years and always love her.
