This film won six Oscar nominations for the 68th Oscar for its compact, ups and downs plot, poignant and melodious film soundtrack, and excellent performances by the actors. Although it only won the best adapted screenplay award in the end, it was One of my favorite movies adapted from classics. The original soundtrack written by British composer Patrick Doyle is one of the highlights of the film. The classical and melodious music, combined with Director Ang Lee’s unique lens perspective, accurately and beautifully convey the feelings of each character in the play .
At the beginning of the film, the father's simple last words introduced the background of the whole story. His wife and daughters were not eligible to inherit the estate. The carriage ran through the narrow street, through the forest, and carried John and his wife, Mrs. Ferras, who went to inherit the manor. The brisk Particular Sum is the truest portrayal of the heart of the woman holding the puppy. She calculated her husband’s He had a lot of property, and he did not agree that the husband should pay so much money to his stepmother and sisters of the same father.
As a woman, she also knew that women of that era could not make money on their own, and could only rely on the property of their father and husband. Of course, Mrs. Ferras of the forces would not care about the lives of women who had nothing to do with her. She only cared about the number of silverware in Nolan Manor, and would not care about whether her sisters could find a good family without a dowry.
The song My Father's Favorite can be said to be the main melody of Nolan Manor, which runs through all the things that happen in the manor.
The second daughter Marianne, whose feelings were exposed, was sitting alone in front of the grand piano when she was suffering from the loss of her father, playing this father’s favorite song. The sad expression on her face was beyond support, and she expressed her sorrow recklessly.
After losing her husband, the mother wanted to leave her familiar home again. She kept crying and irritated to pack her luggage; the youngest daughter Marguerite chose to avoid the adults to distract her feelings; only the sensible eldest daughter Eleanor knew that life was not. She will pause because of grief, tears and avoidance can't solve any problems, she has to find a suitable house, she has to comfort her mother and sisters, she has to disband the servants, wrap gifts, and politely talk to the guests who come to take over the manor, and so on.
The youngest daughter Marguerite is a character not in the original book, but in the movie she is an indispensable little clever ghost. She played a naive role in promoting the relationship between the gentleman and the sisters, precisely because She is young, and her words are childish.
Edward wittily helped Eleanor find Marguerite who was hiding, and let her come out from under the study table. This little sister, who was often ignored by the older sisters, found a good friend. Elinor began to feel a little special for this intelligent, steady, and handsome man.
Eleanor stood alone in front of the door, listening to Marian playing the piano, which was still her father’s favorite song, she couldn't help crying. This was one of the few shots of rational Eleanor showing her emotions. Edward slowly approached her. Hand out his handkerchief. The vast and beautiful Nolan Manor, with fluffy flocks scattered on the flat grass, the feelings of the two people are like this song, and they are very in harmony.
"Love is a fantasy or a feeling. No, she is pure and true eternity. She is not like a gorgeous flower that leaves the branches of youth and will wither and die. She can grow carefree in a barren land without the need. Use sweet words to drive away sadness," Marianne read poems and walked into her sister’s room, the dim beating candlelight, the magnificent room, the girls’ clean pajamas, fluffy feather quilts, everything is so warm, this is the arrival of love The feeling of time. Even if you are about to leave and get used to your home, even if the cost of life is extremely tense in the future, there is still hope for everything, because there is love in life.
However, Eleanor carefully tried every word for her question with Marianne. Although the other party was her own sister, her armor-like reason made her answer quite appropriately, but she was a little cold, maybe she I want to wait for the moment when everything settles down and then express it. Anything that hasn't been determined is full of variables. Marian will be an example of this in the future, exposing her heart too much, in exchange for hurt.
The moment of separation finally arrived. The family drove to Devonshire in a carriage, but the gloomy mood brought by this sad Devonshire was swept away by the enthusiastic Sir John and Mrs. Jennings. They are hospitable and even a little annoying. They want to inquire about other people's little secrets and make jokes anytime and anywhere, but they are really kind-hearted. After their girls are married, their girls' marriage problems become theirs. problem. However, they also pointed out the difference between the countryside and the city, and there were no suitors within a radius.
Indeed, Not A Beau For Miles sounded, Margaret has no gorgeous tree house, she can only play in the mud, Eleanor hangs her clothes by herself, and she can only wash her hair in the small basin at home, without a servant. Bring up the right temperature, either too cold or too hot. The mother quietly looked at the deserted scenery outside the window behind the window. She was worried about her daughters getting married.
Compared with the spacious Nolan of the past, this small villa is dilapidated and the contrast is great.
"Weep You No More Sad Fountains" (Weep You No More Sad Fountains) is the work of British poet Norton. Patrick composed this song tailored to Marian, which of course became Marian's main theme.
Marianne played this tune for everyone after the meal. Colonel Brandon, who was present midway, was deeply attracted by the sound of nature. For the colonel who had experience, the beautiful girl’s moving voice seemed to smooth his emotional path. The hardships absorb the exhaustion of his soul. The fountain of sorrow is crying, but the lover who has fallen asleep cannot see it, as if everyone is asleep, and no one can see the bleeding heart of the wounded. This is exactly the kind of injury that Marianne, who dared to find love, must be hurt in the future.
Colonel Brandon and Sir John were sitting together wiping the shotgun. Sir John kept persuading the colonel to let go of his feelings and actively pursue Marianne. At this time, the background music sounded, slowing down the movements in his hands, and every word. Said, "This is the best!" Every syllable is very clear. He is not only answering Sir John, but also strengthening his heart.
Then the colonel walked alone among the reeds, waving the reed pole in his hand unconsciously. He was alone, with only one back, and only a faithful black hound followed closely.
All the better for her is the main theme of Colonel Brandon. This man who has had a miserable love experience, a man much older than Marianne, even though he has fallen in love with her since he met Marianne. But he has been silently by her side, caring about them, and in the reeds, he handed the knife in time; he would gently support her on Willoughby’s carriage; even though he was rejected and hurt again and again, But he would still send some despicable incidents of sad men when she was sad, trying to alleviate their pain.
It was this noble character that made him win the girl in the end.
After getting acquainted with the life in the country, the family's life gradually enriched. Marianne got a foot in a walk, and the tall and handsome Mr. Willoughby sent him home, and the two fell into a hot relationship. Patience sounded, Eleanor sat alone by the bed, stroking Edward's handkerchief, the camera turned, and Marian gave a portrait of Willoughby, and the colonel watched them dimly on the card table behind him.
Eleanor endured the pain of parting alone, and was also troubled by the life of not being able to eat beef. Marianne dared to love, even forsaking the reason that a lady should have. There is also an annoying Lucy. She keeps talking about Edward with Eleanor, repeatedly emphasizing that this man belongs to her and satisfying her vanity.
At this time, all the pain was borne by Eleanor alone. She also had to worry about Marianne's reputation.
At the ball, there was a cheerful Willoughby song, but Marian found out that Mr. Willoughby, who she was thinking about, was about to marry another richer lady. When I returned home, I was heartbroken and finally learned the secret of my sister. Edward and Lucy had a marriage contract. The sisters hugged each other in pain, preparing to leave the heart-breaking London.
In Mr. Palma’s manor, Marianne walked up the hillside alone, looking at Mr. Willoughby’s manor from a distance. The sky was raining heavily, and Marianne’s golden curly hair was cut off by Willoughby’s fascination. The strands of hair, wet by the rain, stuck to his pale cheeks.
She faced the manor and read the 116th Shakespeare sonnet that the two people liked most when they first met, "Don’t let me believe that there will be any obstacles to the combination of two true hearts. If love can change , Being able to follow the direction of the wind, then it is not true love, love is the eternal lighthouse, in the face of the storm, but does not move..." The
majestic Combe Magna sounded like rain, like a gust of wind. , Taking away Marian’s love, in those days, what was needed to get caught in the rain was the courage not to fear death, because any cold or fever could take people’s lives.
To Die For Love, Marianne was sick for love and almost died. During this period, the colonel, like her relatives, showed extreme fear and anxiety. He paced outside her hospital room, and Elinor kept guarding. Beside my sister, I kept praying, hoping that she would recover. Of course, she will recover. This journey close to death is just funerals for her love, the fearless and irrational love, but after this rebirth, she probably has nothing left.
She knew that she would accept Colonel Brandon. She didn't need more language, just the "thank you" when she woke up.
"Although the sea is still rolling and swallowing the earth, the earth is no longer damaged, because anything, no matter where it comes from, will be carried by the tide, because nothing is lost, but if you look carefully, you will find it. What?" Colonel Brandon read Shakespeare's poems with There Is Nothing Lost.
She smiled quietly, and would no longer pay too much attention to the tone of the reading as before. She accepted the tranquility and chose a love that was not as hot as the fire.
Marianne played Dreame on the piano sent by the colonel. The tune was gentle and gentle, but the faint sadness could not be hidden. Edward also sent good news, and when he learned that he was still single, Eleanor could no longer control his feelings and burst into tears. In the end, the two pairs of lovers joined together. Marriage is also the music, but a festive picture is accompanied by sad music. Does the director want to convey his feelings to us?
Reason and emotion are harmonious coexistence, it is sweet love. Believe that their lives after their marriage will also shine like coins thrown into the sky by the colonel, reflecting the rays of the sun.
Let's talk about actors. To say that a good actor can increase the box office appeal of a movie is not wrong at all. It is because I fell in love with Alan Rickman that I learned about this movie, ten years after it was released.
In almost all the films in which Alan participated in the film, his shots have always been cut a lot. It is said that there should be a large section of the colonel’s confession to Marianne in this film, but unfortunately it was eventually cut out by the director, and it was not left. Information, so today, when DVDs are so popular that they give out abridged clips, we still can’t see that classic scene. In "Rogue Robin Hood", the superb acting Alan successfully portrayed the neurotic sheriff in the play, as well as the terrorist in the first part of "Die Hard", and most recently in the popular "Harry" In the "Porter" series, the role of Professor Snape has been successfully portrayed. The author Rowling admits that Alan's appearance has allowed her to increase her understanding of Professor Snape.
Emma Thompson, who plays Eleanor, is an uncompromisingly talented woman. She is the screenwriter of the film. The film won the best change screenplay award at the 68th Oscar, which is entirely due to Thompson. It's just that she is a lot older than Eleanor in the book, except that she doesn't look very good with Hugh, it hasn't affected her performance in the slightest. By the way, the neurotic divination in "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" wears big glasses and is surprised to speak Professor Trelawney, who is also played by Thompson. He is really powerful. actor.
Kate Winslet is quite classically beautiful. She was only 19 years old when she took the film. What was even more surprising was that she sang the songs in the movie herself, which was quite good. The delicate face, the curly hair on the head, and the slightly left side of the cheek, are like a calm girl in an oil painting.
Although I have never liked Hugh Grant very much, I admit that he is a suitable candidate for Edward. Grant's young acting skills just show such a shy, considerate, and responsible man.
Finally, I think the Chinese dubbed version is quite exciting.
