a poor and hateful woman

I watched this movie in order to watch Ezra Miller. Emma, ​​the heroine, lived a very happy life after marriage, except that her husband could not accompany him during the day and could only accompany her at night. Unwilling to be lonely, Madame Bovary began to seek excitement, thinking that she should not be bound in a house, waiting for her husband's return every day. In order to dress herself up beautifully, she used her husband's credit to take out loan sharks, and finally dissipated her husband's wealth; she was greedy for pleasure, so she was deceived by two men, and she was a hateful and pitiful woman.

Watching this movie needs to be combined with historical reasons, so the comments are limited to the content of the movie and no in-depth evaluation.

Madame Bovary quotes

  • Emma Bovary: I realized that before getting married I was contemplating my coming life like a child. In a theater, um... sitting there in high spirits, and eagerly waiting for the play to begin. It was a blessing in my early youth that I did not know what was really going to happen. When I look back now, it seems that I was like an innocent prisoner, condemned not to death, but to life, and as-yet unconscious of what the sentence meant. And the longer I live, the more clearly I feel that on a whole, life's a disappointment.

  • Monsieur Lheureux: This is going to be very expensive.

    Emma Bovary: You will extend me credit, will you not?

    Monsieur Lheureux: [slides fabric swatches toward her] Money should never be the problem - only the solution.
