start watching the movie "Becoming Jane Austen" in the early morning and watch it at three o'clock Then close your eyes, and slowly fall asleep in the large oil painting of the English countryside scenery and Jane's figure. I like this movie very much, but I prefer to think it is a love story, because it is an unrealistic And the truth is always not beautiful.
Regarding the main character, Jane Austen is played by Anne Hathaway. Hathaway's beauty is useless, but she is not like Jane, not at all. Jane should not It is this appearance and temperament, not so beautiful, but more tranquil and elegant. The hero James Mc is very handsome. I know very little about Tom Lefroy in history, and I can't judge his personality. If you look at the portraits alone, James Mc She does look a bit like him, especially those eyes, clear, brave, naughty and childish. When he looked at her, for a moment, I thought this was not a movie, he really loved her.
Jane and It is impossible to verify what kind of story happened between Tom. Jane's sister Cassandra burned most of Jane's letters before she died, leaving too little information. The only thing that is certain is that between them There was indeed a relationship. When Tom was in his later years, when someone mentioned to him that Miss Austin died almost half a century before him, he just said: Such a young love. So in Jane's heart, is Tom Lefroy? That eternal special existence?
I don't care, and I don't know what the reality is like. I only know that in the movie, they met, fell in love, struggled and worked hard. In the end, they missed. In the end, they hid each other in the bottom of their hearts , I've been thinking about it for a lifetime. I already knew what it would be like before I saw the movie. In England at that time, love was trampled underfoot by money, women's talents were seen as dangerous, and a talented wife was enough to shame her husband. "Property" is the master of marriage, and "she has no money, he has no money", love is suffering.
Her duty was: to accept the wealthy Weasley, even if she did not love her. His duty was: to follow the will of the wealthy uncle and support his parents and siblings. They had also decided to do their part, but in love In front of the face, behavior has never been controllable. So they decided to elope, which is the only way to get happiness. They really eloped, when Cassandra asked Jane who was packing "You will lose everything and work hard for a lifetime?" How else do you write?" Jane said, "I don't know, but happiness is in my hands, and I have to do it."
If it weren't for the carriage that fell down the road, if she hadn't seen the letter, everything would have been better It's a pity that she saw it, she knew that his family depended on him for a living. She gave up, she decided not to let him sink, her giving up made a Jane Austen, and an Irish justice. But her giving up would never It will be in order to become a great writer and a judge. I believe that if she has a choice, she would rather be the woman who holds happiness in her hands, rather than a peaceful life, aging slowly, only in novels Writers who write happy ending marriages, even if their names last forever, if the process is not happy, happy ednding has no meaning at all. Yes, leaving a name behind is meaningless to life itself. Decisions are often just flashes of thought, and many inevitability are in their true colors. It was accidental. Jane, if you were given another chance, if time could go back to that moment, would you still make the same choice?
Jane returned home, but in the end she still failed to agree to Weasley's proposal, she still could not accept and People who don't love live together, she refuses marriage without love. Jane Austen, never married. She wins life and dignity with her pen.
Tom Lefroy, walk the way he should, get married, To be the Lord Chancellor of Ireland. In a world without Jane, another half century.
Postscript:
Jane, your six novels have influenced the marriage values of generations of British people. You have also been with me throughout my entire life. Youth. I still read them to heal myself.
You taught me attitude to life, you taught me to refuse love without love, I learned it, and I did.
But you didn't teach me how to be brave in love, because you weren't brave enough, did you? You taught me when to say no, but you didn't teach me when to accept, because you didn't know, did you?
Here For three months, I hesitated and lingered, I admit that I am not as good as you, then, teach me.
