I took a break last weekend and was bored watching TV at home after lunch. I saw that CCTV-6's "A Good Show" is promoting this British film. With curiosity about the process of the abolition of slavery in Britain, I finished watching this movie. The result is very satisfactory. The impressive points are as follows:
1. The scenery of the English manor house. The scenes of the movie are very good showing the scenery of the British manor, the wide lawn, the huge tree canopy, and the retro carriage, so that the characters appearing in it can immediately bring out the British atmosphere.
2. The way of life of the British aristocracy. In the play, there is a passage where the two sisters have just started socializing, and they show us the daily lives of the British nobles through dinners, dances, and outings. With the development of the plot, the rule of existence of the nobility revealed by the reaction of the two families on the engagement is a game of pure money power. The value of a woman lies in her dowry, so sad.
3. The injustice caused by slavery. The hostess can receive education and care in a noble family because of her father, but her dark skin reminds her again and again, "You do not belong to this class". Because of the huge amount of inheritance, she received a proposal from a noble son who did not have the right to inherit, but when the brother of the proposer was indecent to her, and told her that the betrothal was only because of the inheritance right, she admitted that she was black. Lineage, confessed his mother, and cancelled the engagement. On the other side, she met a pastor who cared about the survival of black slaves. While sharing the progress of the investigation of the cargo ship case, she slowly fell in love with this somewhat stubborn male pastor. Both believe that the current law is unfair and human rights are not equal. In order to make the life of black daughters practical and fair in the future, the adoptive justice finally chose to handle the incident from the standpoint of blacks. Finally, British society began to reflect on the role of slaves in society as a whole, and laid the groundwork for the abolition of slavery.
4. When a person’s destiny and a society’s destiny are connected, they are destined to suffer special suffering or luck.
