An independent woman dedicated to education, beautiful and talented, but she supports fascism, worships Mussolini, and even encourages underage girls to go to Spain to fight. If you think about it carefully, the reality is often so embarrassing. The spring breeze may not be able to turn the rain, and it may destroy the seedlings. Good people may not do good things. Fascism must have many fans back then, so that it can cause such strong destructive power. How complicated is the real world? Easy to sum up in two words. A good movie is actually a kind of spiritual life. It overlooks all beings like a god, and shows the finitude and tragedy of human beings on the screen. The strict and old-fashioned principal also has the correct educational attitude, the cheating painter also has true love, and the female student informs. Out of jealousy and justice, the movie doesn't show us a way out, it just shows us the complexities and dilemmas of being human. The artistic aspect is far stronger than "Spring Breeze and Rain" (also known as "Dead Poets Society"), it just satisfies our YY to a certain extent.

The adaptation is quite good, the contradictions are prominent, the characters are simplified, the interaction is strengthened, and the indirect descriptions are directly presented. Maggie Smith played very well in the added quarrel scene
