Revisiting Tess after more than 30 years, fortunately, today's viewing conditions are ten thousand times better. Because I didn't realize until today that this is a work of art that must be appreciated frame by frame, and even so, it is still so beautiful that people can't breathe naturally and smoothly. But such literary adaptations, no matter how good, will leave the same regrets. Similar to Jane Eyre, Anna Karenina, Joan of Arc, Sophie's World, I eventually found that whoever played Tess owed something. I call this phenomenon the "original sin of video art" - the freezing of the picture constitutes a sin.
