When I saw the fifth episode, I was forced to give up the show by Cosette's stupidity. Before that, I had watched the 10th and 25th anniversary musicals, as well as Annie's movie, probably because those tight plots couldn't hold too much love, so Les Miserables has always been in my mind. It's a classic, and I can't stand the fact that the BBC version has a Cosette plot because it has enough plot.
Fantine and Cosette mother and daughter are both beautiful, but they are equally stupid. The difference is that one died because of stupidity, and the other was stupid, but at least in the story, it was always good. The mother came from a humble background, but she was dazed by the sweet words of the rich family. Losing her body is nothing, knowing that she was deceived and gave birth to a child, that would be stupid; , it can only be said that she is not only stupid but also mentally retarded, and before she died, she kept blaming Jean Valjean for being a devil, because dismissing her led to her depravity, because I am poor, you must be responsible for me, because you hired me, you must be for life Where did the idea to hire me come from? She didn't blame the wealthy and prostitutes, the hotel couple who kept extorting money, and the mean director of the factory, but Jean Valjean. Isn't this a form of bullying and fear of hardship, or a kind of evil? The evil of the poor and the evil of the fool are unreasonable, and they are even more choked up.
When it came to her daughter Cosette, she clearly remembered that her childhood was ravaged, and it was Jean Valjean who rescued her. She clearly felt that she had heaven when she had a rag doll, but because she was coddled, because of her mother's dying entrustment, she forgot. Grateful, I just want freedom, beautiful clothes, and love. When she easily told Marius her name, at that moment I clearly saw the ghost of Fantine. Hereditary is such a terrible thing, mother and daughter, the same ungrateful, the same love brain. If you encounter such a girl in reality, please stay away.
Jean Valjean and Javert are why I love the story of Les Misérables. Javert's parents were criminals, but he became a policeman. He insisted on justice all his life and could not tolerate any evil. Paranoia was his belief. When his belief collapsed, he would rather choose death; Jean Valjean was a sinner, but was inspired by the priest. Do good deeds half your life. Evil is not all evil, good is not the ultimate good, this is life, one thought of good, one thought of evil, struggle with birth, struggle with the past, you must bear the burden to move forward.
Enjolras and Grantaire are another pair of CPs, representing another life. Some people live for love, like Marius, and some die for the better future of others, like Enjolras. The BBC version has no soundtrack from beginning to end, but when I saw Enjolras appear, I couldn't help but think of the song Do you hear the people sing. Dying at a scorching age and devoting yourself to your ideals is probably the best way to die. I didn't like Marius when I watched musicals, but I realized later that the way a man looks at a woman represents his vision, and a man who will fall in love with Cosette at first sight is probably only suitable for the life of a small landowner. Revolution means bloodshed, sacrifice, not romantic enough, not romantic enough, not self moving enough. May Marius and Cosette be together forever and never harm anyone else!
Also, I really like two lines from Jean Valjean: Before the soul is redeemed: How can I love my fellow man when he treats me worse than a dog?
After Redemption: I believe most of us are capable of good and evil, and how we turn out depends on our circumstances and how we are treated.
Great Compassion is still my favorite story, bar none.
