Hollywood version of great prospects

When watching this film, the story is vaguely familiar. Seeing someone sponsor Finnegan Bell to go to New York, I suddenly remembered that this film originated from Dickens's "Great Expectations". The film is quite satisfactory, and Finnegan Bell, who was conquered by Estella and "played", still took Estella's hand. Can love span time and space forever? Can love heal the pain through the vicissitudes of life? Yes. So watch it. What's more, there is still such moving music in the film, as well as the beautiful figure and smile of Gwyneth Paltrow. ps: The most touching piece is of course the young Finnegan Bell drinking the clear water from the fountain in the dilapidated courtyard. Little Estella leaned in and kissed him on the mouth. The music rang suddenly, and the two little mouths were sweet and happy. That fascinating song is just like that young love.

Great Expectations quotes

  • Finn: Seven years passed, I stopped going to Paradiso Perduto, I stopped painting. I put aside the fantasy and the wealthy, and the heavenly girl who did not want me. None of it would happen to me again. I'd seen through it. I elected to grow up.

  • Finn: The night all of my dreams came true, and like all happy endings,It was a tragedy, Of my device, for I succeeded. I had cut myself loose from Joe, from the past, from the gulf, from poverty I had invented myself. I'd done it cruelly, but I had done it. I was free!
