I still like the boring Ang Lee.

From the film version made by Ang Lee in 1995, it was remade by bbc in 2008. Although it is a new work after 13 years, I don't think there is anything special about it, and I am even a little disappointed.

Speaking of cast, I voted for Ang Lee one-sidedly.
Elinor and marianne are actually two different groups. Although emma thompson and kate winslet are full of weight, the two sisters in the new drama are both good looking. But other than that, the other main characters in the new drama are not quite right.
In the original book, Edward is not a handsome guy, just a simple and sincere young man. In the movie version, hugh grant is just right for Edward, and he is not an immediately bright male silver. The 08 version of dan stevens is too good to be edward, is there any sweaty white lining chopping wood scene to seduce the audience!
But the strange thing is that Willoughby, who should be beautiful and unrestrained to be loved at first sight, actually chose an actor who is too ugly to be willoughby. When I saw him, I couldn't help but think of chiwawa. How can marriane fall in love at first sight!
Next, colonel, AR brain powder does not explain.
Mary Dashwood's book is an old lady who is full of emotions, has no direction after her husband's death, and should be exactly like Marianne. What's going on in the new drama, I can't receive the channel at all.
The new dramas are all supporting roles, fanny, lucy, mrs.jennings and so on. But these soy sauce characters are also brilliant in the movie.
In good conscience, Ang Lee's cast is really gorgeous and in place. Even the soy sauce has hugh laurie. Hmph, Miss Thompson must have moved out of Cambridge Friendship to tease him for a cameo appearance, so that's why his character seems to have a crush on Elinor? In short, the only aspect of the new drama winning the movie is the settings. Take a long walk in the country where the air filled with fresh smelling of sweet grass and salty taste of sea wind; feeling your pores absorbing every moment of it. All kinds to satisfy the little cozy fantasies of the English countryside.

Continue the plot.
Although 08 has the advantage in terms of duration, it doesn't feel any advantage at all, and the ending is still anxious.
In the movie version, after attending the dance in London, Elinor finally cried to Marianne about her misfortune. I once read a comment saying that this is the lost the essence of Austin. Miss Thompson's screenwriter completely distorts the author's understanding of sensible. But the 08 version is almost used, and many other plots should also be borrowed from the movie version. But some of them are still more happy and sullen Ang Lee...
For example, in the first visit of edward in London, in the 08 edition, there was no servant notification, ed rushed in directly, and then he couldn't help calling out elinor, and he was arrested people's hands. First of all, classmate ed, you have a marriage contract, so you will not be so uncontrollable. Second, from the perspective of the play, you can feel that there are other people in the same room with such a big eye. How can you be so reckless? ! In the movie version, ed is a lot more restrained, and when Lucy enters the room, he has no way of knowing. In addition, for the subsequent reaction, hugh grant is better than Dandanlong, which is too large.
Another example is the ending. In the new version, ed is speaking to the crying elinor like a passionate poetic confession. At the end, he is tortured three times - can you forgive me? can you love me? will you marry me? Exploding to the point of being stupid... but this person is Edward! You are saying "i come here with no expectation" while making a confession like a lover, how can I be so grateful! ! And there is no explanation for Lucy. In the movie version, ed is hesitant, but the sentence "my heart is...and always will be...yours" is enough to kill it in seconds. After that, there was no exciting kiss, but Margaret, who climbed the tree outside the door, said "He is kneeling down." and relayed the scene of ed's proposal. Short oil, this kind of sultry and euphemistic expression is too much to my heart! ! !
This trick Ang Lee is also placed on Willoughby. In 08, Willoughby also came to apologize to Elinor and confessed that his true love was marianne, and marianne was still witnessing everything on the second floor. In the movie version, the witness was replaced by Willoughby. He was still elegantly riding the white horse that he had given to marianne, watching Lao Yi and Colonel marry happily. The suffering, forbearance, helplessness, sadness and remorse of bystanders were all brought by Willoughby himself. No matter how good marianne is, it's not his. This is Miss Austin's routine.

It can only be said that the 08 version of S&S is more suitable for modern people's appetite. Ang Lee's version matches the original to a certain extent. In fact, I didn't think it was very good when I saw the 95 version, but compared with the 08 version, Bibixi definitely lost in my eyes this time. Dan Danlong, you still play the big cousin well.
