I have to admit that Monte Cristo's Enmity and Vengeance was my favorite masterpiece when I was a child, because revenge is the biggest weakness of human nature, and it is also the strongest driving force, especially the revenge of wisdom and wisdom, which is full of pleasure. , while satisfying the desire for revenge, complete the exercise and end of a brain game.
This drama tells the story of a beautiful blonde beauty Emily returns to a seaside rich residential area in California where she was born. No one knows her origin and real life experience.

Now this little girl has not only reborn and grown up, but has also become the incarnation of revenge. The ultimate motivation for survival is to use the ability of money and wisdom to avenge those rich people who made her lose her close father and warm family overnight. With the unfolding of each episode, when all the illusions are removed, you will know that Emily is no longer a beautiful and rich girl, but a vengeful machine, love and hate.

The whole main body of this TV series revolves around the word betrayal, the betrayal of love, the betrayal of friendship, the betrayal of family affection, as if life is written by the word betrayal, and all betrayals are caused by desire and fear. Step by step, each person embarks on the road of no return to moral conscience.
Someone once said that most of life is controlled by desire and fear, the desire for money, sex and power, the fear of love, aging and death, etc. to form their own life. Inevitably, only when a person truly overcomes his desires and fears can he obtain true happiness and peace. And can people really give up their own desires and remain indifferent to the world? Can people really overcome their fears and leave the world for nothing? This is a question that everyone must consider carefully, and perhaps this is the final outcome that can finally overcome the inner self and escape the bitter sea of life.
As Alexandre Dumas wrote at the end of The Story of Monte Cristo: There is no happiness or misfortune in the world, there are only comparisons of circumstances, and only those who have experienced suffering can feel supreme happiness. You have to experience death to feel the joy of life. Never forget that until the day God reveals the future to man, all human wisdom is contained in two words: wait and hope.
Perhaps the ultimate weapon against desire and fear is the human awakening, which requires waiting and hope. Waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the opportunity for justice and revenge, waiting for the light of hope. As long as you don't give up hope, there will be a future. And if we give up hope, our days will be completely consumed by desire and fear.
The other thing that caught my attention, beyond the ups and downs of the story, was Emily VanCamp, who played the two heroines, and Madeleine Stowe's extraordinary performance. Emily VanCamp is an up-and-coming Canadian actress who has appeared in a number of American film and television productions, most notably for her role in American TV series Siblings. What I like about her is her unique beauty, with a classic look. When you see blonde beauty Emily VanCamp, you often think of movie stars in the 1950s and 1960s. They all have a classic beauty that can stand the test of time and changing times. Madeleine Stowe, who is 53 years old this year, used to be a top star in Hollywood. She starred in many popular movies in the mid-1990s. She starred in the sci-fi movie "Twelve Monkeys" that impressed me a lot about time travel. heroine. Over the years, a new generation of Hollywood movie stars has replaced the old ones, and Madeleine Stowe's work is rarely seen again. I was surprised to see her starring heavyweight - social queen Victoria in this TV series unexpectedly. Because the flow of time does not seem to have passed much of her beauty, she is still so charming, and she is still so familiar with playing the charming and ruthless role of that beauty's twilight. Seeing Madeleine Stowe again is like seeing the glory of the 1990s and us in that era. At least, Madeleine Stowe has verified the meaning of the word perfection for us. Time may take away youth, but it cannot kill experience, and experience is the best harvest in life.
