This is a classic textbook that once slipped into eternal hatred, and it is also an inevitable tragedy of martyrdom-like love. Tess gave up material things when she didn't want to be a mistress; she gave up her faith when the priest didn't want a funeral for her child; she gave up her dignity when the family was desperate to be a mistress again. The only thing Tess cared about in her life was love. She had a martyrdom-like passion to love with her life, which was also the root cause of her tragic life.
I feel that I was able to make such a good film for a long time in 1979, and I didn't feel long at all for 3 hours. The director's rhythm control is very good.
