When I first watched it, I always felt that Bathsheba was too much, but when I watched it, I felt a lot of emotions. Bath Sheba is an independent and rebellious woman. She has her own ideas. Her pursuit of freedom and her rebellion against tradition are the reasons for her charm. How could such a woman compromise at a young age and live an ordinary life with the honest and honest Gabriel?
Bath Sheba and Troy are actually quite understandable together. Prof. Nathaniel Branden explained that falling in love with someone means that just like we see everything, we want to "see" ourselves as real in the world. What attracted Troy to Bathsheba was that he surprised the arrogant Bathsheba. She was convinced that everyone had misunderstood him, which means that in Bathsheba's original heart, Troy was a special existence, a part of society. Rebel, it's the same thing as Bathsheba.
However, when Bathsheba is actually with Troy, he discovers that he is just a pseudo-personality representative, and that he is lazy and playful, which is completely different from the practical Bathsheba. After a long circle, Bathsheba really understood what she needed after experiencing the loss of her husband, so she still stayed with Gabriel and chose to reconcile with her rebellion. Some people think that Bathsheba made it, she could actually choose the right path from the beginning, why did she have to go around in a circle and go back to the starting point, and she wasted so much time. But this is also the trajectory of our lives. It's just that ordinary people go around in a circle and finally find someone else. In order to increase the storytelling, the novel still sets her back to the origin to find Gabriel. In fact, if they were together at the beginning, with Bathsheba's personality, they would definitely not reach the end. The experience gained from seeing the world is always much deeper than the sensible at the beginning, and only after a circle will I understand myself What is needed to choose to reconcile with life. If you have never rebelled and have always lived the life "as it should be", maybe the road will be smooth but there will be less fun of detours. There is a saying in "Back to Basics" that "the longest detour is the shortest way home", and I think this is the best interpretation for Bathsheba.
