One's life is a long road, it is best to have your own world outlook, outlook on life, and values, otherwise it is easy to follow others' opinions. The lucky people have a dull or complete life, and the unfortunate people fall into various abyss. Women in particular, although the society advocates equality between men and women, they do not want to be filled with the temptation of cannibalism.
Since I am a third-timer of "Gone with the Wind", some plot overviews can be reviewed in my previous articles: I have worked hard for half my life and prospered, and she regretted losing this thing . It's funny to say, but today I look at this writing from the past, why do I think I was so in love before? Scarlett, who used to feel that losing her love was equivalent to losing everything, but now she feels that she still has everything she wants after losing her love. Love is something illusory and not practical.
The main line of this film is about how the owner of the manor, destroyed by the Civil War, grew from a little girl who did nothing to become a big woman who rebuilds the manor. The auxiliary line describes the intricate emotional scenes between her and Ashley and Reid.
1. Women should be self-improvement.
When the war broke out, Scarlett, who returned to Tara, found that her mother was dead, her father was crazy, her 2 sisters were in bed, and only 2 of the more than 100 servants were left. There was no food, only the old government's Some bonds are no longer redeemable, and her life has entered a desperate situation. Ordinary people may not be able to withstand such a blow, and they may give up on themselves. Scarlett is strong and sober. She roared and vowed, "Whether it's stealing or robbing, I will never starve myself and my family, and we must revive Tara Farm. ".
In fact, she did it. The noble lady, whose ten fingers did not touch the sun, went to the ground to grow crops and feed a dozen people in Tara. However, what is more cruel than the war is the speculators exploited by the war. They force Tara to pay a high tax of 300 US dollars, while Scarlett has only 10 yuan, and is once again driven to a dead end.
She went to Ashley to discuss countermeasures, but Ashley could not help. In desperation, she begged Ashley to elope with her, but he refused. She understands that love is useless, can't let her Tara survive the crisis, and can't let her escape from reality. She had to beg Bai Ruide, who was inconvenient to lend her money at this time. She had no choice but to marry her sister's fiancé, Frank, who was able to pay his taxes. And the younger sister, she knew that her younger sister would not do anything for Tara even if she had the ability, she had no guilt, she could use it as a bargaining chip for Tara's marriage.
After saving Tara, she forced Frank to collect the bills and bought the lumber mill with the money. In spite of the society's rule that women were not allowed to show their faces, she ran the lumber mill by herself, hired cheap prisoners, increased profits, and the business results were quite good. . It has to be said that this kind of woman has a clear mind, a thunderous approach, a resolute act, and the blessing of beauty. She deserves to be a big winner.
In recent years, many women are reluctant to get married because more and more women have their own financial ability and do not need to rewrite their fate through marriage. More women choose to be loyal to themselves and to love, to marry when they meet a loved one, and to be alone if they don't. This is also the reason why the divorce rate is getting higher and higher. You don't have to feel wronged if you have a bad life. Therefore, a woman must have her own source of income at all times, even if it is 3,000 yuan, which is enough for her own food and drink, it is more dignified than asking her husband for money. The sweetness of the phrase "I support you" is poisonous, making you lose your pride and dignity, and become humble. The other party can arbitrarily despise you, demand you, demean you, and scold you. What confidence do you have to resist?
2. Love only exists in the relationship. If the relationship is broken, love will not possess the soul and disappear. If you are persistent, only you will be hurt.
Scarlett loves Ashley wholeheartedly, and whether she marries Melly's brother Charles in a fit of anger, or gives it to Frank to pay her taxes, Ashley is always in her heart. Did Ashley love her? Maybe at first, he loved her for all the qualities he didn't have - bravery, candor, selfishness, but he wanted to marry the right wife, Mellie.
She married Charles to be close to Ashley, she took care of Melly because of her commitment to Ashley, and she asked Ashley to help her with her business to keep Ashley by her side. Her obsession led her to keep Ashley tied to her side, adding to her own burden (perhaps she thought it was a sweet burden). A person who is always by her side, wants but can't get it, and still has to watch him and others match each other, she makes herself in this kind of torment all the time, why bother? She only had him in her eyes, but she couldn't see anyone else who had always loved her.
It wasn't until Melly died that he said, "Melly is gone, and I took everything with me", and she didn't realize that he was in love with his wife, not himself. This moment of understanding came too late, she had already lost the happiness she could have had because of this obsession.
3. I can bear that you don't love me when you're not with me, and I can't accept that you still don't love me after you're together.
Bai Ruide admired Scarlett from the first time she met her. She has many shortcomings - willful, selfish, aggressive, vanity, these did not prevent him from liking her at all. He felt that they were the same kind of person, a realistic person. He has been paying attention to her silently, helping her when she needs it, but he is unforgiving, mocking her, humiliating her, but refusing to make her happy. Ambiguous to the extreme, Scarlett still didn't understand this teenage old man.
The lumber mill was doing well, and she was rich enough that she no longer had to starve and be driven away. However, Bai Rui De is richer than her. His money was made by speculation during the Civil War. When he proposed to her, she still agreed. She was very frank. She did marry him because of the money. Bai Ruide doesn't care about this, what he cares about is that she always has Ashley in her heart, and he knows it from beginning to end.
Married life is the luxury she wants, she wants everything she wants, and she is very happy, except for the occasional dream of being "hungry, cold and tired". Bai Ruide loves her so much and can tolerate that she has always had someone else in her heart before, but there is still that person after marriage. Jealousy drives him crazy. He thought that with him, she would be able to fall in love with him, but she didn't, which made him feel extremely Tired.
Fortunately, they have a lovely daughter, and he put all his energy on her, pampering her like Scarlett. He even did things that he disdained to do before, for his daughter, such as building a good relationship with neighbors, such as making his reputation better. girl. People see that he loves his daughter so much, and they all think that this man must have many advantages.
But fate played a big joke on him. His daughter fell to her death on a horse, just like her grandfather. Reid almost went crazy, and it was Melly who helped him out of the haze, and then Melly died. Reid thought that Scarlett finally had a chance to be with Ashley, but he was disheartened by Scarlett, and he finally left her.
Scarlett didn't realize until Barry was about to leave that her love for Ashley was just an obsession, and living with Barry gave her real peace of mind, but she couldn't keep Barry any longer. Bai Rui De left, she had no masters, and her father's words came to her mind, "Only the land is the most important, only it is eternal, you love him more than you love me, you don't realize Shi Tara, your power comes from Tara's red soil" , She thought of her lovely Tara, the home she was defending with her life, and she wanted to go back there. This is a woman's retreat. It doesn't matter whether there is love or not, the important thing is to have a place to go, rice in your pocket, and no worries about eating and drinking. Maybe she will wait until Bai Ruide comes back, maybe not, but it doesn't matter, what matters is that when this man leaves, she can still live well.
I hope that the girls here will stay awake. Only by being self-reliant can life be happy.
