Is it necessary to say this version is so bad? I haven't read Austen's books, but I also know that a thousand readers have a thousand Hamlets. In my opinion, the biggest criticism of this edition is that the heroine is too ugly, right? Well, I admit, fanny's exposed gums are very thunderous, and his figure is a little stronger, especially in front of sister flowers, it is really inconspicuous. But she is also very beautiful in some scenes. For example, when she washes her hair, she is really charming, especially when she sits there and embroiders. Her blue body and blond hair not only make edmund look dumbfounded. I also have to admit that she does have an amazing side.
Besides, people who are a little old should know that no matter how beautiful the skin looks for a long time, they will be aesthetically fatigued. How can they survive a long and boring life when they have beauty or wealth but no love from the heart? Maria married a husband of 12,000 pounds a year and became the social queen of London. Isn't she unwilling to elope? So what if Henry made a promise when he proposed, didn't he turn around and seduce a married woman? Over and over again, Austin is telling us that wealth and beauty do matter, but marriage without love is absolutely impossible. Although she never married, she only understood the truth of this marriage after seeing so many marriages in the upper class.
I think a lot of men and women should read Austin these days, so there are fewer BMW girls, less juniors and fourths. What should we pursue in marriage? Fanny didn’t lose his head and forget about love because of the rich young master’s proposal, that’s all She is a reliable person. Not only that, she is not amazing in appearance, but she is the most understanding person among a group of young masters and young ladies; she has been dependent on others for many years, but she is never at the mercy of others. Yes, she is always the most reliable one in the toughest times. Why do people turn a blind eye to these bright spots?
Many people lamented that she did not accept Henry's marriage proposal. I know how popular the drama of the prodigal son and the saint has been over the years, but this drama has killed more innocent girls? Edison Chen is a prodigal son, who would dare to be a saint and accept him? Henry is a love animal in essence. Even if such a man is old enough to lose his teeth and lame his legs, he will still chase after a little girl. If a fanny marries him, sooner or later, he will still be a resentful woman. How many prodigal sons have you seen?
The last ten minutes of the movie were wonderful, but without the calmness in the front, there would be no final gripping. I hope everyone will be patient and enjoy the plot, and stop choosing the appearance of the heroine. Is inner beauty all in vain?
