The heroine married a doctor who was not what she imagined and started a dull life. She and her husband have no common interests and topics, which makes her miserable. While watching the film, I sympathized with the incomprehensible pain of Madame Bovary's married life, and at the same time angered by her vanity. Madame Bovary also fell into the abyss of desire step by step in her pursuit of an illusory bubble of life and love. As a woman, maybe in that era, you can't choose a husband and love by yourself. In that case, how can a woman choose between boring but guaranteed life and romantic but poor life? Apparently, Bovary was enjoying a romantic life with his lover while squandering her husband's support. In the end, Madame Bovary chose suicide to escape the consequences of her vanity and selfishness. When watching the film from beginning to end, in addition to being angry with the heroine, I also sympathize with her. Her married life was boring and she had nothing in common with her husband, but she couldn't find someone to talk to. Even if she returned to church, most of her godfather's words told her to be content with the status quo, and she should be grateful for food and clothing. She wants to find her true love, but she is halfheartedly entangled with the two lovers, and then she is ruthlessly abandoned. She was taken advantage of and the house was mortgaged... This is both her misfortune and the result of what she did.
