Classics never go out of style-perceptions at different stages of life

I like this masterpiece so much, and the movie is so beautiful, I can’t help but want to write something after watching it~ There are three reasons to like it: First, compared with the popular funeral culture and exquisite self-interest culture, the story is that A positive, optimistic, and benevolent attitude towards life is too rare in this world that lacks temperature; second, the feminist consciousness emphasized here is far more advanced and flexible than our now deformed "female boxing" culture; third, full of warmth The big family with the love of March is something I have never seen in my life. On the other hand, today, when public opinion has been run around by a few online articles, one cannot help but be amazed by the writers who have lived so clear and transparent more than 150 years ago.

This movie is an excellent remake. The various scenes of brain supplements are presented in a more beautiful way by the movie. This alone is enough to satisfy me. The narrative of the film uses a fragmented interweaving of N timelines, but the lack of logical ties may make people who do not understand the story feel confused. Due to the limited space, several things that were originally independent have been adapted and combined together, and the accumulation of spectacles makes people feel that everything is on the surface, tangible and invisible. But this is also inevitable in the process of condensing the plot. It is too unrealistic to demand comprehensiveness and deep connotation.

Joe's emotional transformation-growth and cognition

There must be a wave of nympho here! Sweet tea is too suitable for this role! Every time he appeared in the theater, people would exclaim in surprise. I also heard someone say yes to the part of his confession to Joe~ It’s so pretty. (ಥ_ಥ) The black widow sister’s performance and voice are super sexy~ I like this pair. Son! !

Stand firmly with these two people!

Many people sighed for the failure of Laurie and Joe to be together, and they didn't even understand, thinking that Joe's rejection of Laurie was just for the plot.

In fact, the author has already given the answer. At different stages of a person's life, the most important things will change.

Qiao has been an uncompromising celibate since she was a child. At that stage, the pursuit of writing ideals was the ultimate goal of her life. She believed that talking about love and getting married and starting a family were obstacles to her freedom, even because of her sister’s marriage. Hate brother-in-law Brooke.

After Beth's death, Joe felt lonely like never before. Compared with the ideal of writing, she is now more eager to be loved, which is why she will now consider accepting Laurie and finally take the initiative to pursue Professor Barr.

Think about it myself, it seems like that too. When I was young, I was dazzled by some forced and public articles, thinking that a successful life is considered a happy life.

With the enrichment of experience, I now feel that I can live peacefully and healthily, having a loving family, and living a simple and ordinary life diligently, which in itself is a kind of happiness.

The difference between "Little Women" and those online articles is that it does not deliberately denigrate any kind of happiness. Every lifestyle has its unique charm and should be respected.

The same psychological change also applies to Meg and Amy, who once wanted to marry rich people into upper class society. It is often difficult to have both fish and bear paws. A proper compromise does not mean losing oneself, but rather a choice of oneself.

Surprise of the film

There is nothing to say about casting and serving the road! The actor's appearance and acting skills are all online, each character is vivid and likable, and the retro and elegant picture quality has achieved the effect of a dream builder. The opening dance of Joe and Laurie in the hallway was superb, innocent and beautiful.

The death of Beth was echoed by Joe coming downstairs in the two timelines, which was much better than the straightforward narrative in the book.

The process of Meg and Brook learning how to manage marriage by touching the stones is one of my favorite pages of the book, but the film has a limited capacity, and it is understandable to be abbreviated. It only retains the milestone skirt incident in the early days of marriage.

Adaptation and merger

The quarrel between the professor and Joe at the beginning of the film made me a little confused, and then Joe left without saying goodbye angrily. In the book, the professor tells Joe that there is no point in writing some tattered novels to make money. Joe appreciates the professor's insights and feels ashamed of himself. When parting, he still feels that he has made friends for a lifetime.

The narratives of Amy and Laurie in Europe have been greatly changed, and things from multiple timelines have been merged together. The process of making love between them on the boat was omitted, ah, ah, I'm so angry! !

At the end of the film, Joe's pursuit of Professor Barr was kept by his family. In the book, she quietly dressed up and pretended to go shopping, hoping to meet the professor while scolding herself for being unbelievable, so cute haha.

Write at the end

Of course, from the perspective of modern people, there is no lack of bloody bridges in these stories. The most impressive thing is the quarreling and reconciliation of sisters, which is obviously learned by the likes of "Little Times" and "Girlfriends".

It is worth mentioning that the author of "Little Women" loves freedom as much as Joe and has never married. In the end, the role of Joe and the publisher is the director’s speculation and joking about Joe’s ending, but this is not the only interpretation: perhaps the author yearns for freedom while also yearning for company, but unfortunately there is no Professor Barr in reality, so in the book Li gave Joe a perfect ending.

ps: "What does your wife call you?"

"My lord." (the audience burst into laughter)

The Yilin version actually translated into "husband", and it almost lost his soul. Pupupupu! ! !
