After watching HBO's "My Brilliant Friend" (My Brilliant Friend), the film was adapted from the first part of the "Naples tetralogy" by Italian author Elena Ferrante.

The whole film has a dull tone.

Old-fashioned cars rolled over the road and raised a cloud of dust, and Italy's sunny island scenery was covered in a gray filter.

People often wear two dark circles like they live in some kind of shade.

The young heroine is always expressionless and looks like a bystander, which makes the film look extra calm.

I really like the portrayal of friendship in this film, it is real and vivid, the company, following, jealousy and motivation between good friends, all make us feel the same way.

There are some plots that you don't like, such as obscene, but just like real life, you can't remove all the parts you don't like. People will always live in hesitation, struggle and tearing, more or less.

I also really want to write about my good friend YLY in middle school. She is thin, tall and lonely, shy and sensitive. I want to write about her and her piano, her mother's strictness and expectations for her after her divorce, the endless little things she told me at the sports meeting, the college entrance examination plans she helped me fill out, and our last phone call—— She said she was very busy.

Will anyone remember her?

But as soon as I write, I have a headache, and my memory slowly fades, so I can't write. So be it.

In good conscience, the filming is just like that, with first-class dramatic conflicts and psychological descriptions, and less than 50% of the TV series. I don't even think at all how talented Lena is and what is the genius. I feel that the crew is working hard, the scenes, characters, and times are restored, but the most important psychological description in the novel is really impossible to shoot. The embarrassment of this drama is that those who have read the novel are just to restore the characters, and those who have not read the novel can only see a little bit of fur, but it is a pity not to read it, but the original party will still pursue it.

"Jealousy and calculation often appear in women's friendships, not because girls are inherently mean, but because they have long found that there is no chance of winning against men in their cruel existence. Only by crushing the same sex despicably can they grab a little pitiful profit." This drama is better than the original, the boundary of fireworks disappears, the teacher changes, the last episode Lila said to Elena, you must read and keep reading, it is a kind of you struggling for me, You walked out of Naples for me, and the expectation of E is a kind of despair for my own situation.
