How can there be such a coincidence in the world? It's never been such a coincidence.

Mrs. Wen is obviously a good woman, in the eyes of the public. She is not only good, but also Mary Sue, beautiful, and her husband is young and handsome. For many years, she has been the pinnacle representative of women, with the highest material, the highest appearance, and even, in the eyes of the public, the highest morality.
Opposite Mrs. Wen is Mr. Wen, who is also a good man. Young, handsome and rich, he is loyal to his wife, and has the highest morality.
This pair is the most ideal cp people can imagine.
The opposite is Mrs. Erling. She is a woman who has left her husband and children behind, a vixen who has wandered among men, aged and downcast. It is a role that men love and will not choose to be wives, and women must hate to the core.
Sir Puppy, in contrast, has been divorced twice. A life wandering. The old eyelids drooped.

How fragile Mrs. Wen’s morals are. How fragile her love is. Gossip doubts her husband's loyalty, a few good words are coaxed by the playboy, in the drama, it all happens in one day. She was jealous of Mrs. Erling's charm, like any other woman.
How fragile Mr Wen's morals are. How fragile his love is. He only saw a little charm of a charming woman in an antique store, and at her instigation, vanity prevailed, and he bought a smile; after all, he didn't know his mother-in-law was her mother-in-law until he invited her into the car. , he treats her as an expensive appetizer. When he found his wife's fan on the boat, he didn't think about his own fault. The male authority prevailed and he directly knocked down his friend. ] The scene of them embracing on the boat, the body and the set, is so beautiful, I was disgusted.
These two good people let jealousy and authority prevail. The reason why they still return to the soil of morality is not their strong sense of morality, but the protection of others.
Is this the fragility of morality itself?
Is morality necessarily against human nature?
There are philosophers who ponder these issues.
In my engineering studies, I learned that "morality works only in the person who is moral."
I don't think moral frailty, nor human frailty. It's the weak human nature of the Wen couple. Will they go deeper with the experience? This is too dangerous. Without mother's guidance, Mrs. Wen is likely to degenerate again, and Mr. Wen has even more reason to degenerate and become a common person, no longer a moral model.
Morality requires vigilant choices, sacrificing oneself and fulfilling others, just like Mrs. Erling, mother.
The first time she rejected tuppy's courtship, I think it was out of morality, her own reputation, emotional vulnerability, and she didn't want tuppy to bear it. Saving her daughter's happiness and sacrificing the opportunity to spend her life with her love is out of morality. Even if she is not facing her own daughter, but another stupid and pitiful woman, she will save her.
So I think the title of the film is two things, is Mrs. Wen really a good woman? Mrs. Erling, isn't she really a good woman?

All the art design, scenery, architecture, costumes, lighting, shots of the film are impeccable. I want a house like that, facing the sea, where you can watch the sunrise and sunset, the room is full of plants, you can jump into the sea at any time and throw away customs, and you can open a ladder salon in the house to relieve the crisis of loneliness by talking. The warm yellow tones make people very comfortable, and the Italian sunshine is more abundant than the usual beauty.
I love the opposite scene with puppy in Mrs. Erling's villa, the woman's unease, the wit, the man's firmness, wit, the two intelligent people are perfect, and I'm always nervous when watching the movie, when the outcome is unknown.
The most unforgettable moment is when tuppy walked out of the party with Mrs. Erling, approached in the velvety blue night sky, and walked towards the town.
Love that flying-sleeve gown with thin shoulders.
Their morality comes from the gentleness and firmness of human nature.
Whether it's cheating or whatever, I'm always on the side of love.
Love is proportional to the depth of human nature of both parties.

Wilde’s golden lines are scattered throughout the film.
I admire his talent, so many people, how typical each one is, how violent the conflict seems ordinary, and the structure is very beautiful, no more and no less.
enchanting or tedious?

Wilde did not analyze the reasons behind it, I think, this is also a feminist story. Why is Mrs. Wen jealous? Why is Mr. Wen authoritarian? He is exactly the same emotional entanglement as he is now. If women and men have the same rights to receive education, participate in society, and pursue power, will she still have such intense unease and jealousy? If a man surrenders the right to exploitation, will he still be authoritarian?
Maybe Wilde didn't think beyond the times. There was no feminist discourse in his time, but he must have thought of this issue. I think everyone thinks about this problem. Buddha thought about it, Su Shi thought about it, and I think Tolstoy also thought about it. ,,,,,
Therefore, after the emotional connection, those things that need to be filled in life will vary with the depth of the human heart.
Maybe in the future, people will see the inequality between men and women today as we saw polygamy before. Polygamy did not go extinct for long, compared to the long civilization process of human beings.
I think that the Wen family may part ways due to wealth and fertility issues, which is the case with most of the aristocrats at that time, as well as modern people.
However, tuppy who said "if she is ugly, will I look at her more? If she likes my money, I have money", with Mrs. Erling, is a love that embraces the human space, I think, they can, for richer, for poorer, for better, for worse, to get through every test of the moment.
