As a fan of Zola's "Women's Paradise", I am extremely excited to see the news of the BBC remake. After watching the first episode, it can be said that it is a bit regretful. Although the BBC produces guaranteed quality, compared with the original French style, it is British and restrained. It doesn't feel like there is a smell.
After watching the first episode,
(1) First of all, in terms of casting, the female number one looks more in line with the novel, but she is too tall, actually taller than the male number two. The characters in the play should be small and flexible. impression
male lead, moray students, there are astute business person, but did not play the kind of raw some dandy, but also some strong feeling, and perhaps the height is not high enough?
Female No. 2 was recreated on the basis of the original drama. Watching the news in May, some netizens worry that the female No. 2 is more famous than the Female No. 1 and overwhelming the limelight of the Female No. 1. There is no need to worry about it now, because the stylist does not stand. On the female second side. As the daughter of the banker in the play, the unmarried daughter should be at a young age, but this look seems to be a widow for many years, and looks older than the first man. The novel is a Duchess, is Moray lover, the writer can be changed since the bank daughter, stylists students do not read the script
M II, should be a dandy fishes feeling, the feeling here is the lack of self-confidence, a little gloomy feeling
(2) place the story into the United Kingdom, not Paris, the currency had been replaced by a pound
screenplay adaptation or to praise, although only the first episode, but the line has been very dramatic conflict of the clear.
In the novel, Denise is a collection of contradictions. On the one hand, she loves the retail trend sweeping the old business model, and on the other hand, she sympathizes with the small shop owners under the old business model. When others resist Moray's expansion plan, she realizes This is a development trend, so she will fall in love with Moray
in the first episode. This is more direct. Poline (supporting actress) said that she fell in love with moray, and she replied that I want to be him.
(3) Denise’s two younger brothers are gone, probably because the plot is tight, but taking care of these two younger brothers is an important aspect of Denise’s feminine beauty. In the novel, Denise is going to resign, and Moray decides to give up. , Moray saw that Denise was helping two younger brothers to buy things, and turned around them, was moved again, and decided to propose marriage. Without two younger brothers, how would the screenwriter write?
(4) The change from France to the United Kingdom is also the reason for the change in the character's image. The British are reserved and reserved, and the French want to let them out. So Moray’s lover and dude are probably gone, although the story can also be rounded up. But I am still looking forward to the original French version. French classmates, their classics have been remade, how do you feel?
