After watching the movie, I seem to understand why Dickens' novels are regarded as literary classics. Its power lies not only in literary skills, but in the ability to show human nature in stories. Human nature has goodness, evil, fear, and strength; there are classes, prejudice, help, and mutual trust between people. . Dickens did not write these words directly, but meticulously stored the connotation of human nature in the story.
"Tears of Orphans" may be a bit old-fashioned in Cantonese fragments, but there are virtues that can be used in a lifetime. Looking back, you will find that the Korean dramas of Korean dramas (see the book "Jang Jin Niang Kisses Remembering Hate") are really useless to watch more.
In order to escape the persecution of the deacon of the orphanage and the employer of child labor, the protagonist Oliver in "Tears of Orphans" walks barefoot from the countryside to London. It reminds me of the day that Asong claimed to develop Hong Kong into Oriental Manhattan. Do you know how international metropolises like London, New York, Tokyo, and even Hong Kong developed into it? Not resources, but people. These places have gathered elites from all over the country and even the world. In fact, many of our grandfathers and fathers are Oliver, who came to Hong Kong from the countryside to make a living. How can those who can resist and survive are not elites. The borders of Hong Kong are now half closed. Those who don't want to be elites can't leave, but those who are elites can't come. Now we discriminate against new immigrants, which is actually quite ridiculous.
Before watching the movie, I bought two books in business (one of which is "Brave New World: The Crimes and Punishments of the Internet" by Xu Yu and Liu Shiliang). After watching the movie, I was surprised that there are many classics that should be read. Read, why do you buy new books? It seems that it is time to save some time and stop buying the first round of new books in the market (you can even save some money because old books can be downloaded legally and freely online).
