The story tells the story of Louise, a widow who has lost her husband for eight years, and her four children, leaving her home in England to start a new life on the Greek island of Corfu.
The widow is still graceful even in the face of poverty; the eldest son wants to be a writer; the second son does nothing all day and wants to shoot at all living things; the third daughter fantasizes about love all day long; Boys, just like small animals and keep bringing them home.
The reason why I decided I would like this drama after watching it for a few minutes is because of the story structure: a down-to-earth but elegant mother, with her older children who have different personalities and their own ideas, go to such a romantic Greece, In an old house that has been in disrepair, there is all the noise and happiness, and different levels of happiness are harvested; the second is that each episode begins with a small theme, and then proceeds to the title, and it is still a two-dimensional animation, and uses In the form from left to right, with simple and crisp musical instruments, it is bright, concise and can feel the style of Mediterranean colors at a glance, so that the drama can be entered in advance before it is staged. Rhythm and temperament; the third is the presentation of details in photography, such as the moderate and controlled clap of hands, eyes, British stockings on calves, the quiet sea under the moonlight, etc., and the use of stories that take place in The lens tones in the 1930s can be said to complement the storyline from the point of view of service, and are properly riveted.
Share a few scenes with touching impressions:
First, in the fourth episode, the two sons quarreled and took revenge. The second son, Leslie, locked his eldest son, Lawrence, who wanted to be a writer, in the toilet, but was embarrassed by the two bats kept in it by the younger son Jerry, so he accidentally killed one out of protection, and the other The mother and sister, who were only heard shouting for help, opened the door and flew away. However, the youngest son Jerry, who has been very close to small animals and nature since he was a child, expressed his anger and regret, but naturally said something to the effect:
they are only one of thousands of creatures. Not to mention the least popular one.
Specially checked the information of the original author Gerald Durrell (Gerald Durrell), in addition to being a famous British writer, he is also a species saver: he was determined to build his own zoo at the age of 6; at the age of 22, he began to organize an animal collection expedition. , his footprints spanned the continents of Asia, Africa, Australia, and America; at the age of 34, he established the Jersey Zoo in Jersey; at the age of 51, he established a "mini university" next to the Jersey Zoo; at the age of 67, the University of Canterbury Kent in the United Kingdom affirmed his In 2006, he established the "Gerald Darrell Endangered Wildlife Award" in memory of him. So I'm pretty sure that he assigned himself to Jerry, the most innocuous youngest son of the show "The Dreyers", a cute little boy who is addicted to animals.
Second, 16-year-old daughter Margo got a job reading novels to rich women. Before this, or all the time, she longed to meet a romantic love that she fell in love with at first sight. But when she was devastated and frustrated that he liked a handsome friend of her brother Lawrence and he didn't like her that much, one of them grabbed the railing with both hands and yelled at the island house: I won't be in love anymore... ... The shouts echoed like that, didn't it just show the adolescent girl's desire for love, but she didn't know what love was, and felt that she would not love again after falling out of love. Therefore, the director can really pinch people's hearts.
Thirdly, she was the only one who did her best to support her family with an invincible optimism. The graceful Louise was finally melted by the love of Sven, a farmer who likes to play the accordion. When she made up her mind to marry him, But found that Sven is a deeply hidden comrade. Sven candidly said that I did love men before and escaped on this island, but that doesn't mean I still love them now. Louis, whose love was shattered, had tears in his eyes but said with understanding: No, Sven, how do you know that this is either innate or in your body. You can't fool yourself like that. We like each other, yet we live together until we are 80. So the two hugged affectionately, and finally the wedding became a big happy party. Even the old lady who was suffering from princess disease and dared not step out of the gate of the villa for many years (the English noblewoman whose daughter read to her) bravely overcame her fear of the crowd and came to the old house of the Dreyer family to join everyone. Dancing happily.
Fourth, the eldest son who wants to become a writer (single novel has been published, and the book is waiting for the bookseller to confirm the publication) is ready to leave home and live his own life with his painter girlfriend. Mom thought she was going to "lose" him, and the family couldn't live under the same roof from now on, and she felt lonely. Lawrence, who was already carrying his suitcase to the pier to meet his girlfriend, showed up at the party. Louis was extremely relieved. The two of them were leaning against the wall of the house, behind the sea, watching everyone who was laughing and laughing...
Yes, this is what happened in Corfu, Greece. Mrs. Dreyer's family was noisy but A very warm story. Mrs. Dreyer's concept of parenting and education for free-ranging children and letting them live out their true nature also has positive thinking value for Chinese family education.
The above is the experience of chasing the drama in the first season of the British drama "The Dreyer Family".
