Sexual transformation + feminism is not true... "Brave New World" is actually a tragic story of the barbarian John trying to change the world but finding it difficult to return, so it is necessary for the heroine Lenina to be portrayed as a brainless image, and she does not She is not a victim of the author's straight male cancer thinking, nor is she a character who was maliciously made into a brainless character. The "brainless" she shows to the audience is just the basic level of a new world with different perspectives. She is an ordinary person in that world. . But as the object of John's love, her hopelessness is the source of John's despair. What also makes John desperate are his mother's incomprehension, the narrow-mindedness and cowardice of the initial awakened Bernard, and the inability of the highly awakened Helm Hertz to change the status quo of the entire society. Maybe it would be better if Helm Hertz was simply transformed and added to the scene, but forcibly elevating Lenina is really too much. It's like adapting Daisy in The Great Gatsby into an independent and free modern girl. But in other words, the female images in "The Great Gatsby" don't seem to be very good either. Daisy and Julette are not positive images, but Jordan is better. Fortunately, the adaptation of the movie was changed earlier, according to the current The level of political correctness is also uncertain.

If the screenwriter really wants to change sex + feminism, it is better to change the barbarian John into a woman: a Shakespeare-loving girl explores a strange metropolis alone, she wants to change the status quo but finds that Bernard Sludge brought her Can't support the wall; she is attracted by Lenina's beautiful face but suffers from her shallow thinking; she and Helmhitz became friends in previous years (can't remember the age setting in the original book, but I made up Helmhitz's brain only) A wise old man); she looks down on her mother but loves her wholeheartedly, but eventually loses her; she realizes in the conversation with the leaders that the world is hopeless...with women's rights, with Transsexuality, LGBT, persecution of Bernard (doge), and will not have any effect on the idea of ​​​​the original, after all, all Huxley needed was a "noble savage" ". And the new world should be very open to gays and lesbians, and they follow the "pleasure first" principle.

So, seriously, the writers think about it? Isn't literary girl fragrant? Have to catch Lenina to change? Leave her alone, she's just a pretty vase.
