This version of the movie has to make people feel like a boring film at the moment, and most people think that its level of excitement is far less than that of the 1997 remake, even if the storyline is exactly the same. The protagonist of the story, Catherine Slop's mother died for many years, and was raised by her father Dr. Slop. Therefore, she is full of admiration and fear for her father. With this kind of psychological life for a long time, she is taciturn in front of her father. Dr. Slope compared the boring image of her daughter in her heart with the deceased wife she had been missing, and believed that Catherine's character was weak and incompetent, and she had no merit in the eyes of others except for the wealth she gave.
Catherine fell in love with the handsome young Maurice Townsend at first sight at the prom. At this time, she already had an unformed sense of resistance, which deepened along with her and Morris' love. Doctor Slope has the careful insight that every doctor has, so he can discover his daughter's changes and Morris's purpose-Catherine's property. He asked Morris to stop interacting with Catherine when the two were in love, so that Catherine "sees" her father's attitude towards her-his father doesn't love herself at all, he only loves his mother. After this incident, Catherine's resistance was overwhelming, and he agreed to Morris' decision to elope.
Some people say that behind every extinct teacher, there is such an old man and such a history of Washington Square. Catherine gave up her property for love-risking her inheritance right to be deprived and agreed to elope, but Morris's carriage did not stop in front of her house for a long time. This is understandable to tell Catherine: Morris loves only your money. After knowing the truth, her heart is as empty as the room. This night may be the biggest and most painful blow in her life, and it also made her grow. She no longer wants to be silent, no longer willing to live under the heavy patriarchy , Weakness and obedience are a thing of the past. This past event in Washington Square allowed Catherine to recognize herself and learn to protect herself.
People who are injured are often ashamed. Dr. Slope told Catherine that he would contrast Catherine’s calmness when she was alive soon with her attitude towards her father before. If she hadn’t had a relationship with Morris, she would look different at this time. It's hard to imagine.
Seven years later, Catherine was still alone. Morris, who deceived her seven years ago, once again deceived her feelings and, of course, wealth. Having transformed and grown up because of Morris' lie, she has not been deceived again, and after her silent rejection, her heart has also calmed down.
