"Great Expectations" is Full of British Style

The whole movie is full of British style, fully demonstrating the luxury of life in the British upper class at that time. What impressed me the most was how rude the gentle gentlemen would be during the meal. Pip's growth experience is very dramatic, and it is also telling people that the life you yearn for may not be as beautiful as you imagined, but at the same time, it also reveals the beauty of human nature and the twists and turns of love. Although Miss Havisham's tragic experience deserves our sympathy, she should not complain. Although she finally woke up, she still hurt Pip and Estella. Let's go back to the man who changed Pip's life, the criminal. The criminal gives Pip money as his atonement, or repayment, which is also the embodiment of human nature in the film, combining evil with good. The ending of the film is also the same as the name of the film. It is fixed on the sea, and life is like the sea, boundless and continuing.

    Pip: I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sorry for anything that brings you sorrow.
