American crossing

From this play, I started to notice the Western novels of crossing. Unlike Chinese wrestling, which has entered another era, the American style crossing is more stylized and you can walk back and forth. (Like the Stone Array in this play, the earliest Nile River, or a simple wardrobe, a more direct portal) The protagonist's crossing has become a subjective will from accident to later, and has become the protagonist's mission. Many American traversal works mostly penetrate into the future (after all, their history is so long), they are always related to time and space, the butterfly effect (the feeling of interstellar traversal). What attracts me to this show is that it focuses on history, starting from World War I. Although the heroine still inevitably reads poems and books, knows the details of history well, and happens to know a little bit of medical skills, this drama gives me a sense of discovering the little people in the big history. The hero is just one of thousands of Scots. , But because of the emergence of the heroine, it has become the promoter of great history. Putting aside the love story of Mary Su, the dramatic perverted officer, the original book restores history very accurately. The original work is very long. Eight books have not been finished yet. It has a long time span and two generations. It has a long history. It is different from domestic novels that only focus on emotional lines, but forget the historical background.
The plot only developed to the first novel of the original novel, and later I can appreciate the historical resistance encountered when the heroine, as a modern person, tries to change history. History always seems to develop as it should be, and the tiny power of people is always suppressed by the great wheel of history. Of course, very different values ​​in different eras are also frequent conflicts in dramas. From Jamie's punishment of Claire in the first season, it is obvious that the confrontation between the two is actually a conflict between two eras. Outlander, a foreigner, is also an intruder. On the other hand, the passage of China, the conflict of the times is limited to the changes of objects, no matter how strong and independent the female protagonist sees the male protagonist, she can’t walk. Speaking of Claire, she is a character who has been struggling. Struggling with two men, struggling with two eras. She was also fighting, from the very beginning she simply wanted to leave this era, and later she struggled with history.
Let's talk about the drama itself. Like many American dramas, the filming of the drama attaches great importance to details and pictures. Set in Croatia, restores the Scottish Highlands, the costume respects history, the details outside the plot are almost non-fictional, the pictures are exquisite, and the opening is fascinating (especially the opening song). There are only 16 episodes in a season. It is very good while trying to restore the original work. Condensation, adaptation.
