poor victorian woman

Shakespeare said: Fragile, your name is a woman. I said: beauty, vulnerability is not your original sin, but if your wisdom and judgment cannot support your beauty, and the atmosphere concept of the original family cannot protect you comprehensively, then your beauty will bring you a fatal blow and devastating disaster. The original sinner is not Tess's weakness, but the church, patriarchal and husband's power. Tess' parents, who are snobbish and greedy for money, are the boosters. The fatal link that finally pushed the struggling Tess into the abyss. Claire, let me say something! The hypocrite who gave hope to the unfortunate girl and strangled her with his own hands! His hands were covered with Tess' blood, but he was finally able to marry his sister-in-law and bring her beauty back! A proper double standard dog. Kind, vulnerable, helpless, unkind to others, destruction... Alas, looking depressing, I really want to tear off the mask of Claire's hypocrisy, look at the double-standard selfish and ugly face of this pseudo-literary youth, a hypocrite and a real villain Equally abominable, damn them.

Another: Add one more star to the costumes in the play, the strong late Victorian style, the women's corsets, corsets, panniers and large skirts, but also reflect that the elites of the upper class, gentlemen, gentlemen, and patriarchs have seized the right to speak and occupied public opinion. When reviewing the highlands, women are oppressed and suffocated by layers of fancy clothes and the shackles of old customs. This is the situation for the upper class women, let alone the poor girl Tess?

Another: I have to say that Polanski is really a talented director. The color tone, light and shadow, light and shade of the photography, the fog of the wheat field, the farm, and the forest, and the rich classicism style are like 19th century oil paintings.
