Love came too suddenly

I've been watching Austen's film adaptations for the past two days, "Persuasion" and "Northanger Abbey" in 2007, and it feels good. Watching "Mansfield Manor" with great anticipation, I can only say that I was very disappointed.

The heroine, the most important person, always makes people have the urge to play. No matter how I look at it, I don't want to be a sweet girl. And her mouth really doesn't look like someone from that era. It's not that there were no girls with slightly buck teeth in that era, but it just felt unsuitable to be a heroine. Forgive me for my appearance association, but finally understand why casting is so important. Every other girl in the show is prettier than the heroine, and I don't know how Edmund fell hopelessly in love with Fanny after watching Fanny for a few seconds.

The master has nothing to say. The male protagonists in the film adapted from Austen's book are all brilliant, gentle and personable. A pair of innocent eyes really makes people unable to blame the male protagonist for his slowness. Instead, he feels that his feelings for Mary are so sincere and touching.

When I saw Maria, I was left with nothing but scum. As a girl, I can't help but feel a love for Maria's beauty. Really beautiful and noble (ignoring the characters). Mary is also pretty, but a little cold-blooded.

Overall, the plot is a bit dizzying and confusing to watch. It wasn't until the last twenty minutes that I was sure that Fanny would be with Edmund. I really wish the director would give me two more minutes to get my emotions brewing, at least to make Edmund act less abrupt. It's really bizarre, just got rid of an infatuated love, and suddenly, I fell in love with the little cousin who was getting along with her every day and night, and fell in love with her, and then it went out of control. What the hell.

    Touches upon many contemporary issues but... left them there. I like the multiple 'freeze' moments directed toward the 'possibility'. Subtle romance. Cute male lead. Female lead, not as flattering...

    Whether it's a Samsung or a four-star, I'm probably leaning towards Samsung. It's really too much to adapt, everyone's image is enlarged, sick Fanny? It doesn't exist, and it's even a bit orange with Mary (the two of them are very similar in both versions! You don't have to choose to be afraid, right. The harp still plays a few times and falls); Edmund's foreshadowing is very good, the 27-year-old uncle is really old It's quiet, but I'm really speechless when I sleep on my big breasts; accept Herny's proposal, kiss her and then regret it? Ok? In the book, it is rejected and rejected and rejected; the elopement is actually fake as Master Downton, isn't it? There is also the line of uncle-little black-Tom, which is too catchy, what the father said to his son is comparable to the prince's kiss; even the mother and the lady are played by one person. The director is still too ambitious, and making such a film in 1999 is too unworthy of a big IP. Let's take a good picture of the parents, shall we? ! Take a good photo of the selfish family and criticize the society for thinking that the theme is not grand enough... Selfish, Sophia Myles is so cute and cute, I dedicate fireworks and pigeons to her~

  • Young Susan: Think up lots of stories for me and eat hundreds of tarts.

  • Fanny Price: I often wonder that history should be so dull, for a great deal of it must be invention.
