Wilde's Cucumber Sandwich

When Algernon brought out a bowl of cucumber sandwiches and gnawed unscrupulously, I finally couldn't help but laugh: Wilde's housekeeping cucumber sandwiches!

I regret that I have never seen Wilde's drama deity, so I have no choice but to comment on whether the film adaptations are faithful to the original. However, the 02 version of The Importance of Being Earnest is not only because of Collin Firth's brilliant performance, it shines in my eyes.

Yes, yes, I know that a lot of the pungent and witty satire and witty words that Wilde is best at in the movie, or his most respected beautiful costumes, but this does not prevent it from making me fall at Wilde's feet again. .

Wilde is an expert at storytelling, compact and concise. Different audiences go around too many turns and spread too much, but it is not a white and bad section that can be explained clearly in a few words. He tells the story easily and brightly, but he secretly tells you behind the scenes. I set up a set, and when I was shaking my baggage, I only realized that I had a knowing smile, and I didn't realize I was fooled. Wilde seizes any opportunity to show off his cleverness between the lines in a high-profile manner, but for us, even if this cleverness is deliberately obvious, it is enough for us. God eccentrically gave Wilde's extraordinary talents and gifts. Perhaps he is the only person in this world who can claim to eliminate talents, and he doesn't need any other decorations. Therefore, our critical eyes can only surrender in front of him, even if he makes no secret of how he plays with the universal norms of this world out of the ordinary, so he is always tolerated and forgiven by exceptions.

The character and atmosphere of the characters in the film is always reminiscent of the 1920s and 1930s, making our noble gentlemen seem a little too frivolous and vulgar. The Lady Come Down sung by Collin Firth and Rupert Everett is undoubtedly a typical song and dance. Episode, but what about these? Regardless, Wilde's cucumber sandwich is still there.

    The Importance of Being Earnest, translated as Sweetheart Talking King, although very playful, but without the cleverness of puns, the language is really broad and profound, and the fate is also a thousand times, may lovers become brothers and sisters in the end (what?!).

    Sweetheart Talking King + Husband Failed This pair of names is really a perfect match for the romantic light comedy style of the year, flashbacks and other imaginary passages I will be Reggio, I don’t believe this is Wilde, this is Uncle Face them Fan service now! ?

The Importance of Being Earnest quotes

  • Jack: How you can sit there eating muffins when we're in this terrible trouble, I can't make out! It seems to me to be perfectly heartless...

    Algy: I can hardly eat muffins in an agitated manner. The butter would probably get on my cuffs.

  • Algy: Did you hear what I was playing, Lane?

    Lane: I didn't think it polite to listen, Sir.
