Becoming Memorial

Is the woman Tom is holding his wife? For a while, Jane was a little flustered. She clearly saw Lucy's face-the 15-year-old girl who had been eagerly looking forward to marrying her cousin Tom many years ago. But Tom on the side has white sideburns, just like herself. She heard his low voice, after 20 years, arrived: "It's an honor to see you, Miss Austen."
This is the last scene of "Being Jane". Forgive me for being ignorant of Jane Austen's life, but I thought it would be the end of marriage. But this is not "Pride and Prejudice." The young men and women who were relieved of their misunderstandings did not live happily together. "First Impression" is said to be the predecessor of "Pride and Prejudice". The soundtrack of the same name is played romantically and tactfully, as if reminiscing the first dramatic meeting between Jane and Tom. Embarrassment and anger, who knows, give birth to the closeness of the soul, and each silently tastes the joy of being "knowledged". Jane has his own opinions on love, marriage and career. He is unwilling to accommodate a loveless marriage for the sake of property, and insists on the ideal of living on literature. Tom also obeys the free will, despise the hypocrisy and vanity of the upper class, and confess and pursue true love. They resist, they elope, desperate in a situation where there are no more choices. Of course, Austen must want to bless them, just like Darcy and Elizabeth in her novel, let them form an oath before God and never be disturbed by poverty. However, in reality, Jane and Tom can only succumb to the former in the game of reason and emotion. What was Tom's mood when Jane said, "If love will ruin you and your family, I would rather not love"? They are all too clear about the greatness and the weakness of love. Even if reason makes them brave to face separation, they can't help but burst into tears as they look back.
If the film stops abruptly here, I won't give a four-star rating. Even if the 18th-century British countryside scenery in the film is so beautiful, the dialogue and costume design are also classics. What I care more about is the reunion between Jane and Tom twenty years later. When the passion was washed away, they faced each other peacefully. Tom introduces his daughter to Jane, a girl with the same name as her. And the already popular female writer suddenly showed a girlish look. It turns out that love is still 20 years old and Fanghua, it is the first time to exchange eye movements or a reserved kiss in the night, but it has become longer. Things are neither human nor human, Jane once again read her words in front of Tom, expressing her restraint to this man-no, it should be a deep and lasting love, telling him that it was the experience he gave her that made this love in the words It will last forever. Women who know how to write have always lived their lives in this way, whether it is a Chinese lover to Duras or Hu Lancheng to Zhang Ailing, a story is like a monument, remembering love and immortality.

Becoming Jane quotes

  • Judge Langlois: Wild companions, gambling, running around St James's like a neck-or-nothing young blood of the fancy. What kind of lawyer will that make?

    Tom Lefroy: Typical.

  • Tom Lefroy: I have been told there is much to see upon a walk, but all I've detected so far is a general tendency to green above and brown below.

    Jane Austen: Yes, well, others have detected more. It is celebrated. There's even a book about Selborne Wood.

    Tom Lefroy: Oh. A novel, perhaps?

    Jane Austen: Novels? Being poor, insipid things, read by mere women, even, God forbid, written by mere women?.

    Tom Lefroy: I see, we're talking of your reading.

    Jane Austen: As if the writing of women did not display the greatest powers of mind, knowledge of human nature, the liveliest effusions of wit and humour and the best-chosen language imaginable?
