Some people once commented that "Twilight" is a bit of a Mary Sue movie, so the rating is not very high, although sometimes I take myself out and watch all of them from 1-4, I think the protagonist's halo is too strong The plot is designed to protect the protagonist's various sacrifice principles (for example, the werewolf truce with the vampire Karen family to protect Bella, and fight against the enemy together; later Jacob even fought against the wolf family to protect his wife Bella). Here's an online description of the story:

Bella and Edward have lived a happy and peaceful life after many disasters. Bella, a sensitive and fragile girl, has finally achieved the ability, love, family, status, fame and Full harvest of wealth. (This description comes from Baidu Encyclopedia)

But is this really the kind of story in many youth idol dramas about the life-and-death sadomasochism of the domineering president, the rich second-generation, with the pure kindness and pure kindness? Looking at this work in this way is actually biased. Because in fiction or in the real world (imagine vampires) there must be such a predestined alien (maybe human or others) that will change something and create some stories.

In my eyes, Bella is really a very sturdy woman (Christine in reality is also very egoistic and avant-garde). The point, so to speak, of Born To Be An Vampire :

1. good looks

Not everyone has such a genetic beauty and can control everything. When she came to a new school, she immediately became the focus of many boys' attention. Of course, among her many strengths, this is actually the least worth mentioning;

2. Special skill: Defensive ability (also called "shield")

This ability is the metamorphosis ability that can resist almost all vampires, any mind-reading skills (even Aro's level can't see what she thinks), any pain skills, etc. will not work for her, this is just her as a human being. special abilities from time to time. It is also because of this that Edward is deeply attracted, so people don't like Bella because of her looks. Every man likes a woman who is mysterious to himself, hard to read, like Edward said: I waited a hundred years to marry you, Mrs Swan.

I just couldn't live in a world where you don't exist. I just couldn't live in a world without you. Leaving you was the hardest thing I've ever done in 100 years.

And when Bella transforms into a vampire, her ability has been trained to cover the people around her, which is very powerful. So if you put it in the game, she is definitely a potential stock. That's why Ah Ro is so interested in transforming her.

3. Ability: Super self-control

This is not actually a special skill, but it is also an ability that ordinary people or new vampires do not have, and can fight against human blood. This ability and later powerful strength made Edward admire her with admiration. He said that he always felt that Bella was weak and seemed to always need protection, but he never thought that she could overcome everything and let her spouse appreciate the truth from her heart. is not easy.

4. Clear self-awareness

Bella knows and is very firm on 2 points from the beginning to the end: 1) I want to complete the transformation and become a vampire. Many people have persuaded Bella. I think the most convincing reason comes from the dialogue between Rosaile and Bella:

-Things got better after I found Emmett. But we'll always be this. Frozen, never moving forward. That's what I miss the most, the possibilities. Sitting on a front porch somewhere, Emmett gray haired by my side, surrounded by our grandchildren, their laughter, things got better when I found Emmett. But we can always be like this. Cold and never able to move forward. That's what I miss the most, the endless possibilities. Sitting on the porch somewhere, with Emmett sitting next to me, grey-haired, surrounded by our grandkids, and their laughter. -I understand, that's what you want. But there's nothing I'll ever gonna want, more than Edward. I understand, that's what you want. But all I want is always Edward - You're wrong again. After you've been changed, there's one thing you'll want more...One thing you'll kill for...Blood. You're wrong again, in your After being transformed, there is one thing you will want more, and you will kill for it, blood.

But has Bella been persuaded? No, because she knows herself too well. There is a dialogue that makes me think Bella's aura is the feeling of a domineering female president. That paragraph is in the third chapter "Lunar Eclipse" At the end, just before the wedding (because the condition she and Edward exchanged is to marry you, and then you transform me):

-I've chosen my life. I want to start living it. -And so, you're gonna let Alice plan the whole thing? Yeah. Dress, the reception, the guest list... You want Alice to handle the whole marriage? Yes. Dress code, reception, guest list... -I just don't know why you're doing this. -What? The wedding? What? wedding? -You're trying to make everyone else happy. But you're already giving away too much. You're trying to make everyone else happy. But you give up too much. -You're wrong. This wasn't a choice between you and Jacob. It was between who I should be and who I am. I've always felt out of step. Like literally, stumbling through my life. I'm never felt normal. Because I'm not normal. I don't wanna be. I've had to face death and loss and pain, in your world. But, I've also never felt stronger, more real, more...myself . Because it's my world, too. It's where I belong. you are wrong. It's not a choice between you and Jacob. It's a choice between who I am and who I am now. I always feel out of step and stumbling through life. Everyone thinks I'm not normal. Because I'm just not normal. I don't want to be normal. In your world, I have to deal with death, loss and pain. But at the same time, I will be stronger, more authentic, and more myself. Because that's my world too. is where I should belong. -So, it's not just about me. Not just because of me. -No, sorry. Sorry, no. -I've made a mess tring to figure all this out, but...I wanna do it right. And I wanna tie myself to you, in every way humanly possible. Thinking about all of this has made me battered, but I want to find the right answer. I also want to be close to you, in as humanly possible a way as possible. (This thought also foreshadowed why Bella was determined to give birth to the baby later on.)

2) I love Edward and Jacob, but I love Edward more:

Jake,I love you. So don't make me choose. 'Cause it'll be him. It's always been him he.

But she doesn't want to show the magic of emotional control until the critical moment. From this point of view, she is actually very self-sufficient, has the means, and is easy to grasp the key factors.

This kind of self-recognition is really precocious for an 18-year-old woman. When her classmates are still afraid of watching violent movies, they like to go shopping, and they like to participate in various parties, they try to make various mistakes and try to change their minds constantly. At the moment, she not only recognizes her own incompatibility and self, but also does not try to avoid this tendency that everyone has more or less, but tries to use this kind of "self" in a perfect way. "Played just right, and decided to end his life.

5. Courage and Willpower

This is actually what Bella admires the most. If you don’t take action if you have knowledge, it will be nothing but on paper. If you do it and put it into practice, no matter what the result is, you will get it.

I knew from the beginning that Edward might be a vampire, but went into the woods and listened to Edward's explanation (I believe that many girls can't actually do it, you know that a vampire may have a good impression on you, and you don't dare to rashly Follow him into the woods to fall in love, right), I believe Bella is afraid of swinging and uncertain in her heart, but she still reckless (she always seems to be so reckless, including the time when she jumped off a cliff, I believe She didn't seek death, she just wanted to force Edward to show up in an extreme way).

If the above is only considered reckless, then her subsequent performance really shocked her jaw, and the slip of her arm to attract Victoria's attention was only a very small display.

After knowing that she is pregnant with their flesh and blood, she loves beauty so much and wants to keep her 18-year-old appearance forever. She suffers from a withered face, various organ failures, and the risk of dying before giving birth. She does not accept Anyone's opinion, firmly want to give birth to the child in the womb. If you don't risk your entire life, how can you practice this "I love you"?

There is never a pie that falls from the sky, you need to be prepared to seize it at the moment when the opportunity comes, what you see is Bella's perfect ending that seems to have reached the peak of her life, but you can't ignore her beauty. The value, ability, and character brought her a winner in life. If it wasn't for her strong heart, how could she have obtained everything so valuable, so she was destined to be a vampire, which should be the best interpretation of her.

And if the love between her and Edward is raised to a philosophical level, we can use Jacob's explanation of the "branding lover" in the werewolf country as a romantic and past life marriage to illustrate all this:

-Imprinting on someone is like... Like when you see her, everything changes. All of a sudden, it's not gravity holding you to the planet. It's her. Nothing else matter, You would do anything, be anything for her. Branding Love means when you see her, everything changes. In an instant, it's not gravity that binds you to Earth, it's her. Other things don't matter anymore, you are willing to do anything for her, become anything.
