This film, as the sister of "Pride and Prejudice", has the same background as it, and has similar contradictions and conflicts between love and reality. The film has two main lines, which unfold through the love of two sisters, Elena and Marianne. It can be said that the two sisters represent two completely different images. The two sisters' diametrically opposed views on love also encountered the conflict between love and reality, and finally each achieved their own happiness. As a younger sister, Marianne has infinitely good visions for life and love. It can be seen through a dialogue between her and her mother. Her evaluation of Edward, who her sister admired, was "too serious", and she said to her sister's love, "Is it enough to be so respectful?" She said, "Love must be passionate, like Julia, Arthur Like a queen. To die for love, there is nothing more honorable." When her sister hesitated about her love for Edward, distressed by the disparity in her status with him. She asked her sister "Do you love him?" I think her view of love is correct, however, the conflict between love and reality is inevitable, in real life, how much of such love is there? It is undeniable that Marianne is indeed too irrational. She expected a perfect man like Prince Charming, so when she met the older Braden, she resolutely rejected him because of her age. And when she met Wei Lebi, who was as enthusiastic as her, she felt that she had met her own Prince Charming. However, she didn't know that the real Prince Charming was not perfect, and he was not only a princess. He was forced to marry someone who was not his love because of reality. Marianne was finally forced to accept the reality, and began to understand the conflict between reality and love, learning from her sister to become rational. In the end, he also found the love of Braden who has been with him all the time, and finally obtained his own happiness. Although Marianne was very irrational at the beginning, from her previous performance when others deliberately matched her with Braden, it can be seen that she does not like to be controlled by others. She has her own thoughts and is very independent, which is similar to "Pride and Prejudice". Elizabeth in " is very similar, which is also worth learning from. On the other hand, her older sister, Elena, was too rational. Although it was a very wise choice to be rational at that time, being too rational would make her seem passive and not good at fighting for it. When her sister asked her about Edward. She replied "I don't deny that he is good", "I respect him very much and like him". Her answers were all neutral, but it could be seen from her performance that her feelings for Edward didn't stop there. It can also be seen from this that she is indeed a very rational person, very cautious, and does not reveal too much of her feelings. When her eldest sister-in-law said, "If the person he loves is not the right match, he won't give him a penny." She also obeyed her mother and moved quickly to Devan Town, when her sisters encouraged her to invite Edward to come, she Just promise. While her sister Marianne struggled to get in touch with Werribee, she just silently missed Edward. She is much more introverted than her sister, but this also makes her unable to express her feelings well. However, in the end, forced by Edward and Lucy's "marriage contract", she also obtained courage from her sister, expressed her feelings, and accepted Edward's marriage proposal, gaining her own happiness. As Marianne and Elena's sister-in-law put it, "feelings alone may not find a suitable match". However, feelings are also essential. Reason and emotion comprehensively summarize the correct view of love, and also bring inspiration to life, which is thought-provoking

    The moment Eleanor suddenly heard the truth, her emotions suddenly broke her rationality. The rational heart had been built up for too long, and her emotions would be so turbulent at the moment of her defeat. Emma is so good in this scene. All the reserved, steady, and generous set off the faux pas at the moment is so moving. At the climax moment, the director actually chose to swing away from the camera, and relayed it from the perspective of a little girl. It was amazing, and the forbearance and restraint made the audience imagine their own growth. (Besides, I really like the colonel. But is the relationship between the second sister and the colonel the prototype of Fei Yunfan and Ziling~

Sense and Sensibility quotes

  • Charlotte Palmer: To think! We can see his insufferable house from the top of our hill. I shall ask Jackson to plant some very tall trees.

    Mr. Palmer: You will do nothing of the sort.

  • Mrs. Dashwood: We're so happy that you chose to invite Edward to Norland. He's a dear boy. We're all very fond of him.

    Fanny: We have great hopes for him. Much is expected of him by our mother with regard to his profession.

    Mrs. Dashwood: Naturally.

    Fanny: And in marriage. She's determined that both he and Robert will marry well.

    Mrs. Dashwood: Of course. But I hope she desires them to marry for love.

    Fanny: Love is all very well, but unfortunately we cannot always rely on the heart to lead us in the most suitable directions. You see, my dear Mrs. Dashwood, Edward is entirely the kind of compassionate person upon whom penniless women can prey. And having entered into any understanding, he would never go back on his word. He's simply incapable of doing so, but it would lead to his ruin. I worry for him so, Mrs. Dashwood. My mother has made it perfectly plain that she would withdraw all financial support from Edward should he choose to plant his affections in less... exalted ground than he deserves.

    Mrs. Dashwood: I understand you perfectly.
