After watching

I haven't read Hardy's novel, but I have seen Polanski's "Tess" and this film in the adaptation of the movie. The general feeling is that Hardy's characters are not very popular, whether they are male or female, and they have no brains to do things, and they have achieved many dumbfounding plots. The background is generally in the countryside, and the heroine is a beautiful country girl who has never seen anything in the world. She has a so-called autonomy, in fact she is a bitch. However, even if they are all green tea bitches, the attitude of ordinary writers toward their protagonists is the same. The author should not want to judge them morally, but be full of tolerance and sympathy, even affirmation and praise. Just look at how gentle Hardy's ending is. Like an old father watching his daughter go through some struggles and bumping all the way, he realizes the silly and absurdity of some of his previous opinions and behaviors, and has a new and deeper understanding of himself, others and life itself, becoming a relative Sound mature women. And these are the books they had read before that couldn't teach them.

The plot and characters will remind people of many classic novels of the same time or before and after. The heroine is free and independent and regards the land as life, just like the British version of "Gone with the Wind." The love of the male protagonist is dignified and selfless to give like the male version of "Jane Eyre". The heroine is independent and likes to choose freely. There is also a good comparison between George Eliot's "Middle March" and Henry James's "Portrait of a Lady", but Bathsheba is not as bookish as Dorothea and Isabel. It is not in a pure sense. The female literary youth, so there is no non-academic or artistic person who does not marry. There is no pedantry, but the attributes of an ignorant girl are the main thing, and there is no thinking ability. What loves is not the talent but the sensory experience, or is attracted by the romantic military officer, not what an independent heroine should have at all.

Independence: The plot has something ingenious in common with "Portrait". The heroine has got the uncle's legacy. From an orphan with nothing but a heart to a wealthy girl, she provides a material basis for her independence. And there are three men one after another, and even propose to her many times. The heroine of "Far from the Crowd" has read some books, claiming to be "except for reading some books, there is nothing extraordinary", the reason given by Gabriel for the first time was "I am for you Too much independence.” She has a good feeling for Gabriel emotionally and likes him very much. In fact, she may not understand the reason for rejection at this time, but feel that she is still young and has not seen any men. If you want more experience, then consider getting married. This is similar to Isabel’s mentality of rejecting Lord Warburton and Mr. Woodward in "A Portrait of a Lady" not long after she arrived in Europe from the United States. In fact, she can't explain clearly, or that no one will explain it very clearly. I understand it well, I just feel that this is not my destiny. I have to experience more before making a choice. In the words of her friend Miss Stackpole, "I will never get married before I meet the European continent." ". Even if the final choice is the same as the original one, everything in between is not detours and meaningless existence. In the film, the female companion of the heroine (named her heroine because the name is hard to remember) threw her a phrase "What a luxury, to have a choice" and Isabel's deafening phrase "to have a choice" The same, constitutes a very valuable part of the free and independent spirit of these girls.

Green Tea: In fact, Hardy's heroine is very real. Regardless of age and national boundaries, some girls who know in real life can be admitted to the seat. Where is the holy temperament like Dorothea, Isabel so speculative and philosophical, Taziana ("Onegin") so upright and upright. These three heroines are the ones I most admire and admire in literary works. They are brave and sincere, live transparently, are still very righteous when they endure great mental pain, and have high moral requirements for themselves. Hardy’s heroines are not the case. They are more like starting from self-interest. They are tempted by sensory pleasures. They are not self-controlling and thinking. It is also out of selfish considerations to reflect on regrets, and there is no moral choice to talk about. Not very ethical. Those who don't have sensory impulse are hanging as spare tires, and I don't directly refuse them. I am thinking about words and the status of the offer is always under review. When making a choice, I will throw the problem to the spare tire. When I try, I don’t know it clearly. When someone speaks unfaithful words, I immediately take out the proud and independent attitude. Why do you have the right to judge me to interfere with me, you? Let me go. If you want to ask others or realize the problem and want to get it back, you can play emotional cards. I need you. You can't leave me. Isn't I your first sweetheart? Of course, there is nothing right or wrong in feelings. After all, people’s feelings have always been for their own happiness. Therefore, it is completely understandable for this kind of behavior that is not right in my opinion, but integrity and open-mindedness are of course more important. Worthy of praise and respect. Girls who used to think that they were such inauthentic, as a guy with a sense of morality and justice, should be scornful of them, even if they feel that they are no matter how attractive they are, they should lead by example and keep their distance. But I know that this kind of thinking is too absurd. For the matter of bitch, gender has limitations. This does not prevent a man from being a decent man (both Gabriel and Mr. Birdwood), and emotion is not moral. It’s not thinking, no need to use the rationality and objectiveness of historians. They will never know that it is a bitch. Even if she is close to her, she is still cute with them, and other girls who don’t want to see her are talented. There is a problem. "Yes, you are just jealous." (Take a long way) In short, Jian Bitch is still gay the best.

Love: But the love in it is touching. Gabriel's unconditional support and dedication to the heroine makes people sigh that if this is not love. He has a few particularly touching words: "I have 100 acres of land and 200 sheep. After the money is paid, the farm will be ours. In a year or two, you can still buy a piano. Plant flowers and grass and build a shed. Grow cucumbers, have one or two children, or more. I will always be by your side.” I have to admit that such a proletarian love statement is too powerful. Later, Mr. Boldwood also had an offer prospect. It's almost the same thing, but it's not unlike this one, people have the desire to frown and sigh.

"I gave up a long time ago, and I no longer have hope. I just want to say, leading on a man you don't care for is beneath you." It’s funny but hurts others. I just want to point it out in front of you. It’s a bit similar to the role of cousin in some novels. This type of male is generally smart, experienced, stable and upright. There are also cousins, like Rina in Emma. Mr. Terry.

"Now that you have a higher status than me, I will not be so stupid to think that I still have a chance. But don't suppose I'm content to stay a nobody all my life. One day I will leave you, you can be sure of that. But for now I care for you too much to see you go to ruin because of him.' With dignity, the male version of Jane Eyre.

Gabriel held the lamb to propose to the hostess, and every time the hostess chased his back, every time he called him, he would look back and listen to her carefully. His eyes were full of generosity and trust, and they were extremely beautiful.

The officer should have true love for the maid girl, and he felt that there was a pure side, not scumbag. From the perspective of the movie alone, the original work is not clear.

Actor: Matthias is so handsome. According to the evaluation, it is said that he is a "loyal dog male protagonist", which is more appropriate. Carey Mulligan is good-looking, and she often sings in movies. She has a vigor in her body, and that face is suitable for a girl who is a bit arrogant and bitch. Tom Sturridge has always had good acting skills, and his body is too small and thin to look like a soldier.

    I don't understand why Winterberg had to adapt a classic of English literature. The pictures and music are beautiful, and even Mulligan is also beautiful. I still found a sense of substitution inexplicably... [Look again, I like it better, I still love Winterberg]

    He is obviously a very tortuous story director, but he made it into a smooth and unrelenting running account. The character creation is a bit of a failure. After so much experience, I feel that the protagonists have not grown at all.
