In that environment at that time, there was no TV, no newspapers, and no magazines. I took everything I could find and read. Most of them are the novels that my dad borrowed, and the stories will wait. In fact, at that age, I seldom accepted foreign novels, and I was ignorant, unlike those children in the city. However, because of the influence of my uncle, when I was in elementary school, I had already seen "Pinocchio" (the version I watched was called "Pinocchio") and "How Steel Was Made".
"Great Expectations" is a good story, easy to understand, with twists and turns, so I read it with relish at that time. From when Pip was young to growing up, from country to London, from inferior to superior, from crush and pursuit, when his benefactor was about to appear, the later chapters were gone and torn. For example, some martial arts secrets, such as Jiuyin Zhenjing and Sunflower Collection, were suddenly interrupted at a critical moment. Since then, I have never had access to the full version.
Since then, many days have passed, but the shadow of "Great Expectations" is rarely seen again. Perhaps many things at that time took up too much space.
Then came the 21st century. After I came to Beijing, I occasionally saw e-books on the website. Every time I found "Great Expectations", every time I wanted to read the ending, I always gave up halfway. Later, when I was buying books and plates on the website, I stumbled across a black and white film called "Great Expectations", but the name of the film is "Blood and Tears of a Lone Star", and at first glance it is a boring translation in China. This should be in 2005 or 2006. After I bought it, I put it together with a lot of dishes, and it started to get covered with layers of dust.
Until yesterday, last night. Finished watching the film in a very depressing tone. This British film, shot after World War II, is very simple, and the gray light reflects the light in little Pip's eyes. The previous plot is the same as what I saw when I was a child, especially the dilapidated old house that has been kept in its original state, revealing this gloomy, depressed, and the cold woman who has been wearing a wedding dress.
Later, I saw the dream ending. The prince and Cinderella lived a happy life, and the frustrated Estena wanted to die in the old house like the adopted old woman. However, Pip, who has experienced twists and turns, smashes the dark house, pulls the beloved Estena, and rushes out of the majestic gate that has been in and out since childhood. Outside, the sun is shining.
