Hester Prynne was punished by the Calvinist authority for committing adultery, and stood on the ancient torture platform with the red "A" symbolizing adultery on her chest. In her hands she held the evidence of this sin: a baby only a few months old. Under merciless gazes, she rejected the demands of a young priest, Arthur Dimmesdale, to confess and confess to an accomplice. After being punished, Hester took up residence in a small hut outside the city, away from the crowd. She made a living by needlework and took good care of her daughter, Pearl. At this time, Hester's husband came to the United States. With hatred he changed his name to Roger Chillingworth, surreptitiously visiting Hester's adulterous accomplices as a doctor. Seven years passed quickly. Pearl has grown into a beautiful and lovely little girl. And Hester won the respect of people because of her continuous enthusiasm and helping others, so that the scarlet letter on her chest that originally represented shame became a symbol of beauty, kindness and virtue. And after years of snooping, Roger also identified the "morally great" Reverend Dimmesdale as the hidden accomplice. So he did everything possible to approach the pastor, attacking and sneering, constantly torturing the pastor mentally. In order to make Dimmesdale escape from her husband's shadow, Hester is determined to take her daughter and run away with him, but Roger finds out that the plan fails. And the fear of Roger and the torment of concealing his guilt made Dimmesdale's health go from bad to worse. Finally, on the eve of leaving the world, in front of the whole church, he took Hester and their daughter Pearl onto the yoke, and exchanged deep repentance at the cost of his life for a new moral life. "The Scarlet Letter", a masterpiece of world literature and a highly controversial work by the American writer Hawthorne, has been put on the screen many times. The version introduced in this article is "The Scarlet Letter" directed by Roland Joffe in 1995. Movie titled "The Scarlet" Letter", also translated "True Love Life" or "Red Forbidden Love", the story tells a poignant and touching story of extramarital affairs. The disappearance of her husband causes a woman to fall in love with a priest. The bulge of the belly exposed the woman's adultery, and she was imprisoned for her "sin", but she refused to name her lover. The birth of the baby became the "iron proof" of her guilt, and she was put on her chest with a red sign "A" that symbolized unchastity and shame. However, the various kind deeds of women carrying their children alone have changed people's understanding of her, and also changed the original meaning of the red sign "A". The return of her husband broke this situation. He found out his wife's adulterer and began to take revenge.

    How the woman refused to name the adulterer, and the man waited every day for her white handkerchief to be tied to the windowsill, so that he could find out everything and die for her. This story, I can't hate it, there is Gary Oldman, there is adultery, and there is love.
