Unable to accept changes to the ending!

Give Wilde one more star. It was a little embarrassing at the beginning, and the characters in the second half of the plot did not really reach the high comedy comedy conflict standard that I imagined. Cecily is the second romantic girl in my imagination. Lady Bracknell is a bit more serious than I thought, completely unsmiling and serious (I thought she was the kind of character with a natural sense of humor) The most intolerable thing is! Actually finally changed Jack's name to John. I can't understand why this change is necessary. Because Wilde’s original intention is fiction turning into reality; life is about self-invention. Does the director think it is politically correct to change to Jack to lie?

    After watching the 52nd edition of Asquith+Redgrave+Denison and watching this again, I am embarrassed. I can't watch it anywhere... The actors are not at all interesting, RE is still too old, and it is not natural to be cute, no wonder it has to be changed to brother==

    It's so dramatic, the characters change and they're really brothers in the end. . . .

The Importance of Being Earnest quotes

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

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

  • Algy: But why does your aunt call you her uncle?

    [Reading cigarette case]

    Algy: "From little Cecily, with her fondest love to her dear Uncle Jack." There is no objection, I admit, to an aunt being a small aunt, but why an aunt, no matter what her size may be, should call her own nephew her uncle, I can't quite make out.
