freedom of a happy ending

Inexplicably, I remembered what the gambler played by Robert Redford in "Havana" said to Lena Olin, the wife of the revolutionary leader - If you want to change something, change me.

Suddenly I understand why Jane's few novels There are so many happy endings. If you can't do anything to change your ending, and you happen to be a novelist, even if you only write about boudoir affairs, you can at least arrange a happy ending for your beloved protagonist. This may be the only privilege of being a novelist.

Not all readers need the big tragedy, the big bloody scene, the big life-and-death conflict. Such a profound proposition is self-claimed. Each has its own strengths, each has its own advantages, and there is no need to force it. Eileen Chang also said, "I even write about small things between men and women. There is no war or revolution in my works. I think that when people are in love, they are more simple and simple than when they are in war or revolution. It's more unrestrained." If you only write about the little things that happen around you, but still can move people's hearts more than a century later, you are successful.

The world used to be mostly small people, but it is just a look of joy in a look, and a sadness in a small parting, which are all trivial and trivial things, and seeing a happy ending is regarded as a great joy. The sun of high art is also cold on the body, we only need warm cheesy happiness.

    Love cleansers, perfect paranoia. If you can't give the kind of happiness I want, then I'd rather be alone and die alone. What is a real good marriage? . I like the way the man looks at Jane at the end of the film. There was too much self-evident in those eyes. It will be a pity, but it will be relieved in the end. At least we once fell in love.

    A long sigh. The movie is very beautiful. I especially like that Tom appeared in front of Jane at the dance at 56min. His big eyes revealed mischievous, provocative, and cunning. His appearance lit up Jane's smile. But the real Jane never saw Tom again after he left for the first time. And Jane should have lived a miserable life all her life, unmarried, turbulent, poor, traveling around, and died of illness at the age of 41. And Tom lived to be 93 years old, and Tom's children generally live longer, which shows that the family conditions are very good. I'd rather not have Jane Austen, a female writer, than Jane Austen, a country girl, to be happy. But the real situation of the year should be a playboy from London and a poor country girl. The country girl will never forget it for a lifetime, and the playboy only regards this memory as an affair. --2019.03.08 Edgartown

Becoming Jane quotes

  • Lady Gresham: My nephew, Miss Austen, condescends far indeed in offering to the daughter of an obscure and impecunious clergyman.

    Jane Austen: Impecunious? Your Ladyship is mistaken.

    Lady Gresham: I am never mistaken.

  • Judge Langlois: Welcome...

    Tom Lefroy: [walks in a circle and discreetly reminds his uncle] Madame le Comtesse.

    Judge Langlois: Madame le Comtesse. Seldom, too seldom, my house receives the presence of nobility. And, of course, its friends. Please.
