Smells lightly of Jack Sue

After reading it for the first time, I felt a bit like Jack Su, especially the priest in it was here to help the male protagonist hang up. The revenge plot in the later stage is also a bit weak, and the revenge is unparalleled in its simplicity and smoothness (at least the filming is very simple). This made me smell a trace of revenge in Jack Su Shuang's essay. But after thinking about it carefully, this masterpiece should be the originator of similar plots (such as: persistence, mysterious characters send copies, betrayal, revenge and redemption), especially when the female protagonist is attacked by the male second, it is very similar to Liancheng Jue, right? , but Liancheng Jue is much darker.

The existence of the pastor always makes me jump to the various masters in Jin Yong's works, and I feel that there are more or less shadows.

However, as the first to write such a famous novel that is often set and caused successive imitations by later generations, the author is nothing more than very powerful. A famous book is indeed a famous book, and perhaps reading a book can better discover its subtleties, and the film expression may be limited.

The Count of Monte Cristo quotes

  • Napoleon: Time you were on your way. Your captain has been dead for half an hour.

    Edmond: Are you sure?

    Napoleon: When you have walked as many battlefields as I, young Dantes, you can feel death.

  • J.F. Villefort, Chief Magistrate: Well, I must say, Dantes, you don't have the look of a traitor.

    Edmond Dantes: Traitor?

    J.F. Villefort, Chief Magistrate: Now, attend me well, Dantes, for your life may depend on it. Did you have any personal contact with Napoleon when you were on Elba?

    Edmond Dantes: Elba. Yes, I did. Well, we did. I was with the Count Mondego's son, Fernand, almost the entire time. Do you know Fernand?

    J.F. Villefort, Chief Magistrate: He's a recent acquaintance, yes.

    Edmond Dantes: Oh, there you are. He'll vouch for me.

    J.F. Villefort, Chief Magistrate: No doubt, but you said "almost the entire time."

    Edmond Dantes: Except for when Napoleon asked me to deliver a personal letter to a friend in Marseilles.

    J.F. Villefort, Chief Magistrate: Well, Dantes, it is for accepting that treasonous correspondence that you have been denounced by your own first mate, a monsieur Danglars.

    Edmond Dantes: What?
