a little surprise

Howard Manor, what surprised me was that, living in England in the 19th century with a deep-rooted class concept, where the aristocracy and the poor had little to do with each other, the romantic Helen had a relationship with a poor man who didn't have a job. In that kind of society For her pregnancy, the only thing that can be said in the past is that the Helen family is not a former British aristocrat. The final ending is also intriguing. Although Henry is not likable (Hannibal is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people), his acting skills are refreshed again, showing the class attitude of an English aristocrat towards the poor. In the end, Henry's son Charles killed Buster by mistake. He thought that in that social situation, he would be exempted from punishment (according to the courtesy of the British to nobles), but he did not expect that he would be sentenced to murder as a measure, and he was imprisoned. is what I cannot understand. Although Helen helps the poor, her wayward behavior has caused many people to get into trouble and pain, and brought disaster to the three families. Buster dies, his wife will be displaced and become a prostitute again, Charles goes to jail, the young wife is lonely with the baby in swaddling, the sister and brother-in-law quarrel because of this. I still live in Howard Manor calmly, and I really don't understand the author's final meaning. Social reality is not sharp enough

    @ Archives. Three and a half. "Interesting people don't have a house." And the class with thousands of buildings, are they willing, and under what conditions are they willing to stay with you even for one night? Art is a leisure that only the upper class deserves to enjoy, but no matter what the surface is, the upper class often regards indulging in art as childish and crazy, and they will never follow the North Star and walk in the dark all night. The middle class is the most likely to breed romantic imaginations, but in the face of a marriage proposal that may jump in class, the response is so fast that the suitor and the audience can be caught off guard. Three families, the upper middle class and the proletariat, who do you choose to empathize with? In one detail, when Meg moved his belongings into Howard Manor, it was Dickens who put on the bookshelf. The one who finally hit Mr. Bast was probably the same. Did Dickens' warm humanism really affect them? At the end of the film, what made me gnashing my teeth was Helen's natural, family-like wave to the car. What was the fate of poor Jacky? There's a catastrophic cross-fade clip in the PS film, and I have absolutely no idea why.

    Re-watching the supplementary standard SJ Beauty A District CC version of the Blu-ray Helena started one of the gothic crane Kenshi flirting trilogy All kinds of jump cuts to interrupt emotions From high to low, all classes feel nothing good. Compared with Austin's ease and gentleness, Foss The special truth is unpleasant, the adaptation is superficial, the characters are not impressive, the words and deeds and the characteristics of the character are not further excavated. The class gap and contradictions are not further explored. Finally, only one thing is revealed - only if you have money, you can be self-willed.
