First, the three main characters C (male protagonist), S (female protagonist) and V (female second). The story unfolds in England in the early twentieth century.
This show makes me feel sad and depressed overall. All the sadness comes from the traditional British morality that C believes in and his relationship with S.
1) About the title of the play.
When I first watched it, I didn't understand why it was called the end of the queue, but C gave me the answer when I knew the fourth episode. He said...parade is the so-called pretense of famous families, so is this show called The end of the veil is more apt?
2) Regarding C.
An aristocratic gentleman who believes in the traditional morality of the knight era, he is upright and forbearing, and keeps himself clean. In my eyes, he is a complete Good man. But his chivalry spirit has forced himself to a small corner of the world where no one supports only himself. Why it is mentioned more than once in the play that he is hated by all people is not because he really has any annoying personality. But at that time, he was different from what most people believed.
He is faithful to the truth, so his work in the Bureau of Statistics is sophistry in his eyes, and he would rather run around in the trenches.
His stubborn gentleman, gentleman to the point that he wouldn't even look at his wife's nakedness, maybe that was a violation in his eyes, a disrespect to his wife. Because he wants to be an absolute gentleman, he can marry a woman who doesn't even know if she is pregnant with his own child, just because of an impulsive desire on the train. He considered being a gentleman to be responsible for his actions. After marriage, his wife hangs out with other men and even runs away again and again, and he can only endure this kind of cheating behavior.
He was absolutely loyal to his faith, but it was his so-called faith that gave him all his unhappiness. Can't forget what he said to V in front of the fireplace: The things I believed in are long gone. In fact, he understands and understands everything. But because of the so-called chivalry, he could only believe in the belief that was already empty.
3) Regarding S and C.
I prefer S, no, I should say I don't like V at all. In the play, the most description of S is only two words whore bitch. A well-known courtesan, even after marriage, she can't be loyal to her husband. Of course, the reason why she chose to marry C at the beginning was just to find a bad father for the child who is unknown in her belly, so that she could save face and step down. However, her character is so distinctive and attractive, at least she dares to love and hate, at least she can keep herself clean after she decides to save C, at least she can express what she thinks and wants out loud.
And V, the so-called feminist political activist. I don't know if I don't like it because of the preconceived notion that I despise the mistress. After all, I am loyal to the original match in all TV dramas. Even watching the Legend of Zhen Huan, I hate King Guojun (Did the style of writing change = =. Well... I don't know how to describe my feelings for this character. Her mother told her that if you didn't take the initiative to ask for C I won't touch you, that's right. Later, she became a teacher and advocated that women and men should have their own rights. I still don't understand why such a person would allow himself to fall into and destroy other people's families.
The whole drama... It seems that I always thought that C and S were in love, and C did not marry S simply because of responsibility. If it wasn't for Love S, he wouldn't allow anyone to say that his wife's bad, of course you can also say that it was for his own reputation, but in the fourth episode he buried himself deeply in his wife's pajamas. What? If there is no love, why do this kind of action, or because.... miss her. And S's love for C is arrogant, domineering, and extremely aggressive. Her expression of love is revenge and torture. Use a man to arouse C's anger and wake up C's numb heart. If you don't love, you don't need to bother so much. Including the fact that she kept cleaning herself for C when he was sent to the front line just because she was determined to be a good wife for C, why would she do it if she didn't love him? And the big tree that C loved was cut down because she mistakenly thought that C had been with his mistress V after stepping down from the trenches, and had not returned home for a long time, because of love and hatred. In the end, pretending to have cancer may be just a last-ditch effort to save the relationship. C and S have always been in love with each other, but they just don't know what is the correct way to love each other. They use quarrels and cold wars to solve all problems, so they have been hurting each other. Our CS party is very unacceptable to the ending. Q_____Q
Of course, there is no doubt that C also loves V, but this love is not the same as his love for S. After all, S and V are two completely different people. In fact, at the beginning, C only stopped in spiritual love. His beliefs prevented him from being betrayed by his wife.
In the end, C and V are together. The price is.....parade's end.
The parade's end is not so much the end of the queue as the end of the veil. This so-called pretense binds C's hands and feet like shackles. He can't do what he wants to do, say what he wants to say, and love the people he wants to love. Then in the end, C still dropped the shackles, broke free from the shackles, and won a more harmonious and warm love.
Every picture in the whole film is as beautiful as a painting. Can't forget the lips that C and V almost kissed in the early morning fog in the first episode, if they had kissed at that time, maybe there would have been a lot less misfortune, but life never plays cards according to the routine, and C at that time was impossible Betray your own beliefs.
The final result is just one more sad person in the world. She also loved and hated hard, but she loved too deeply and hated too hard, and she broke this love into pieces with her own hands. Whether the changes made for you should continue to persist, even if they are gone. And S, is it a return to debauchery? Still lonely. That sentence, wishing you happiness is really distressing.
Writer, you hate it QAQ
