Advantages: The plot is basically in line with the original, and the classic quotations have lines.
Constraints: Movie duration is limited
1. I don't know if it is an aesthetic difference or not, and I am not very satisfied with the casting of the actors.
For the so-called "handsome and beautiful", there is no way to get the face, and the age group cannot be clearly distinguished by the facial features (the young Fermina does not look like a 16-year-old; the father's appearance does not look like an elder compared to Urbino. age).
2. The plot develops too fast, which may distort the plot.
For example, it took Ariza a long time to get close to Fermina to accept his letter at first, rather than immediately accepting the latter's pursuit.
The Chinese won the first prize of poetry not because of the shady, but because the immigrant Chinese also understand Latin American culture and have high literary attainments.
3. Some details are missing, and some scene transitions are blunt.
For example, "eggplant", when Fermina was young, he hated eating eggplant, so he said to Ariza, "I can marry you, as long as you don't let me eat eggplant". Then, after tasting the "eggplant dish" by chance, I started to like "eggplant", so I named my child "Eggplant Urbino".
Fermina suddenly questioned whether Urbino cheated, and did not describe the details of the latter's cheating, but in fact, Urbino's inner activities during the cheating in the book were very rich and representative.
