People are often lonely, and no one can accompany you forever. If I had to say who was my forever friend, it would probably be the book. And reading, throughout my life. I've read too many books, of all genres, and most of them I don't remember. If you asked who my favorite author is, I'd say Hugo. Because I love him, I read three biographies about him; because I love him, I can describe his life in multiple languages; because I love him, every time I mention his works, I am moved to choked up. There is no other writer who can give me such a profound shock about love in each of his works. Those of us who have studied modern history know that France is the most difficult country in Europe to move from a feudal monarchy to a capitalist society. Incessant revolution, overthrow of the government, restoration, revolution, overthrow, restoration. . . So, how unfortunate it must be for people to live in that era, and Hugo, from birth to death, just experienced it completely. What do you do when the world you see is dark and hope is constantly being shattered? The contemporary Balzac was full of despair. He hated money, but he was extremely devoted to money. The characters in his works are all perverts of that dark age, the gloom of society and human nature is full of gloom before our eyes, and it is difficult for people to see the light. And Hugo, the characters he created always carry beautiful love and great love in the most desperate abyss. And these loves have warmed the whole of France, even Europe, and even the world. Lu Xun gave up medicine and started writing because he wanted to wake up the sleeping soul with a pen. And Hugo used his pen to warm the miserable soul who was confused and groping in the dark. Hugo was actually a great poet first, and then a writer. His novels should be said to be only five: "Notre Dame de Paris", "The Laughing Man", "Les Miserables", "Labor at Sea" and "93". And my favorite is Les Miserables. Les Miserables is a book I read before I graduated from elementary school. At that time, I didn’t understand history, I didn’t understand politics, I didn’t enter the society, I didn’t form the three views, and my understanding and views of the world were ignorant. I can't imagine the dark Paris he describes, nor do I understand the profound connotation behind the so-called works. At that time I was only moved by Jean Valjean's self-salvation and fraternity. I still clearly remember the little girl who was kneeling on the bed holding the book and crying because she was moved. As for why I was so moved, I don't know. I just know that I am very moved, very moved. How should we evaluate Hugo's work? I think it is appropriate to use a few meters of "Hope Well": falling into a deep well, / I shouted, / waiting for rescue - it was dark, / looked down sadly, / only to find that the water was full of twinkling stars. I am always in the deepest despair, / encounter beautiful surprises. This is my favorite poem by Jimmy. The kind of surprise found in despair that makes you feel like the whole world lights up. The lovely people in Hugo's works are such a surprise. They amazed me, and they amazed the whole era, the whole France, the whole world. After many years, I only vaguely remember the story of "Les Miserables", several main characters, and the kind of moving that is engraved in the depths of my soul. In 2012, Tom Hooper made a remake of the opera Les Miserables and became the biggest winner of the 2012 Oscars. All the actors in the show are my favorite actors. In the spring of 2013, this long-awaited opera was finally released in the mainland. Unfortunately, my roommate let me dove, and I heard that the translation was not good, so I downloaded the resource and watched it on a night that was so ordinary that it could no longer be ordinary. Done. More than two hours of opera, did not bore me. I haven't seen any of the films about Les Miserables, and neither have nature operas. The film opera was completely new to me, yet it seemed familiar. Catchy melodies, some songs can even be remembered after just one listen. By the end of the movie, I could almost sing along to the chorus about the revolution. What moved me to tears was no longer just Jean Valjean's good deeds, but those revolutionary youths who didn't even have a name, but who really existed, the heartbroken monologue of Fang Ting, and Eponine. Selfless love, even Javert's last leap. These characters, which were once blurred in my mind, suddenly stood out vividly in my mind that night. About Jean Valjean. This perhaps ordinary character is greater than any hero in any work. His innocence was turned into ice by the dark society, and because he was shrouded in light, he completed self-redemption and saved all beings. Such a character has the most vivid character, one feels full of hope, love and warmth. I love the truth that he steals for the hunger of the whole family, the gratitude he feels after being helped by the priest, the help of strangers who ask for nothing, the selflessness that he regards Cosette as his own. Jean Valjean runs through the whole miserable world, but a warm light blooms in the miserable world. And so that dark, numbing age becomes hopeful. He has been hurt and loved, and he decided to forget the hurt, remember the love, and pass on this love. I think he best captures the humanism that Hugo wanted in the dark. About Fangting. This character is a complete tragedy. The beautiful young girl met a scum and thought she had met a long-lost love in fantasy, but who knew it was just a passerby who was taken advantage of and immediately lost. It's not just the heart that hurts, but the body as well. It is a shame to give birth to Cosette, but this shame is proof that the short-lived love existed. Love this girl, but this girl made her life a mess. Because of her beauty, she was envied, her self-love was regarded as artificial, she was ostracized by everyone, and finally she became a prostitute until she died. I really can't imagine what hope is there for such a life. Just sad for her. Fortunately, at the end of her life, she entrusted her daughter to Jean Valjean, which finally made her life continuation happy, and finally had all the beauty she hoped to have. About Cosette. Even though Cosette was wearing rags as a child, she still caught my eye the moment she appeared. The girl is like an incarnation of an angel, and her voice is an echo from heaven. Cosette's childhood was miserable, because this misery made her sensible early. But fortunately, she met Jean Valjean and lived in the carefree but carefree castle supported by Jean Valjean. She grew up healthy and beautiful. Blonde Amanda looks a lot like Cosette I imagined. Pure eyes, pure voice, pure heart. This angel-like girl is the most beautiful existence in that dark age. About Javert. This character has always been labeled a bad guy in my young mind. I've been wondering if Jean Valjean wouldn't have been so miserable without him and wouldn't have had to hide in hiding for the rest of his life. He is a man who respects the law and dogma, and appears indifferent because he is too strict. Since Jean Valjean's heart that has been frozen for nineteen years can be influenced by the priest, why is he not at all humane. For many years, for many years, I didn't understand. As a child, I don't remember how Javert died, only that he died, then clapped and cheered, whistling and cheering. Now, I suddenly found out that he committed suicide. At first, I didn't quite understand the psychology of his sudden jump. After thinking about it for a long time and understanding, I was suddenly moved. If Jean Valjean went from good to bad to good again. So Javert, to be precise, has always been a "good guy". He respects the law, is loyal to the ruler, and strives to maintain social order. If it weren't for the special case of Jean Valjean, a "good fugitive", I don't think I could really find any stain on him. All his actions are out of the best of intentions. He hopes that everything will be in order under the rule of the government, and he has been working hard in this direction without any mistakes. He is serious, he is honest, he is smart, and he is responsible. If he had done something wrong in his life, it would be that his upright heart was touched by the "bad guy" Jean Valjean at a certain moment, and then he violated his own creed for the first and last time in his life. He wondered why an evil fugitive like Jean Valjean would do such a kind and righteous act, and he also wondered why he, who had always enforced the law impartially, broke the law and let go of the fugitive. So, in order to punish himself, he took his own life. Such an upright and prudent person is loving and kind. Suddenly, I love Javert very much. About Alpenne. I never remember the existence of this girl. But this time, I remember her. Actress I don't know, not beautiful, tomboy figure. She is a revolutionary, an unrequited lover, and a good girl. She silently loved Marius and silently helped Marius. Selfless love, selfless giving, without complaint. She loves him, so she also loves her, and she helps him catch her. I don't know if there is a more noble unrequited love in this world. She loves bravely without asking for anything in return; she revolutionizes bravely without asking for anything in return. In the rain, she looked at him who was in love with the other her and cried silently for her love. One-man show, so hurt, so beautiful. It's not Fang Ting's gloomy and hopeless injury, but the kind of injury that struggles with strong tears in the dark, very beautiful, very beautiful. At that moment, I felt that the ordinary-looking Epane was terrifyingly beautiful. I think, I'll never forget this girl who doesn't have many roles. About young revolutionaries. These are some hot-blooded revolutionaries with dreams, and most of them have not even left their names. A beautiful society is always earned through the bloodshed of the martyrs, and we sit back and enjoy the success. Most of them fell in a pool of blood, or drifted into the wind with the flames of war. The place where the dream begins is always full of thorns. Suddenly I remembered a dialogue in "Cloud Atlas" when my father-in-law prevented Ewing from supporting the liberation movement: "No matter what you do, it will never amount to anything more than a single drop in the limitless ocean!" "What is an ocean, but multiple of drops? ” Maybe for the entire ocean, a drop of water is not worth mentioning, but if there are not thousands of water droplets like that drop, how can there be the magnificent rivers, lakes and seas Woolen cloth? Where the dream begins, there will always be converging water droplets trying to become a river and sea. You can't deny the huge impact those little people have had on the entire course of history. They are also heroes. Add the most uplifting part of the entire musical: Do You Hear The People Sing? Enjolras: Will you give all you can give So that our banner may advance Some will fall and some will live Will you stand up and take your chance? The blood of the martyrs Will water the meadows of France! All: Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men? It is the music of a people Who will not be slaves again! When the beating of your heart Echoes the beating of the drums There is a life about to start When tomorrow comes! A week after the movie, I bought all the operas about Les Miserables on Taobao. Watched it all at home over the weekend. The stage effect of the opera is very good, although it is not as shocking as the movie, but at the end, the chorus of the revolutionary song still brings tears to my eyes. "Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men? It is the music of a people Who will not be slaves again! When the beating of your heart Echoes the beating of the drums There is a life about to start When tomorrow comes!
