A Good Woman & Wilde

There are fewer and fewer story-telling movies, and the plot has become a joke + MV + classic lines, combining freaks, twisted into a ball in the viewer's brain, and incomprehensible. When I watched too many movies like this, I couldn't find the feeling of watching a movie more and more, and I couldn't even raise my interest in the end. Occasionally, seeing a good movie feels like a gift.
"A Good Woman" is a gift. There are no big scenes, big plots, big moves, big casts, but a small story played in a small theater, but it is very wonderful. In fact, it is often small things that really touch people's hearts. There are big things and big mistakes. Only the small things that seem to have no principles can realize more meaning.
"A Good Woman" is also considered to be famous, the screenwriter is the famous British Oscar Wilde, the play was originally called "Mrs. Windermere's Fan". Although the latest version of the movie has weakened the classic elements of the original drama language, it still reflects the genius of this genius writer who is known for his unparalleled eloquence, witty satire and humor. In the play, Wilde always expresses quite deep feelings about marriage, and is slightly negative and pessimistic.
Wilde's life has been ups and downs. In a short life of 46 years, he quickly became famous and quickly ruined. He was found lewd in an anti-vice operation by the London Police Department and was later confirmed to be homosexual. Because homosexuality was forbidden by British law at that time, he was actually taken to court and imprisoned for two years for "incriminating morals". The book was banned. , The play was suspended and the property was robbed. After he was released from prison, his wife changed his surname, homosexuals were like strangers, and they could only live in Paris without a name, and died in poverty. It was only years later that Wilde was remembered by the British again. The modern evaluation of him is: "He belongs to our time more than the Victorian era. Now, far away from those scandals, the years have confirmed his best writings. , He came to us quietly, outstanding and tall, telling fables and philosophies, laughing and crying, so endless, so funny, so conclusive."
