It has been ten years since I saw the hardcover English version of bronzing fine lines at my cousin's house in the second year of junior high school. During the period, I have watched it countless times and recommended it to several people, but very few people really liked it as much as myself. At least in love fiction, this is an absolute masterpiece.
I thought there was a movie version of Thorn birds a long time ago, but I was extremely disappointed with Ralph after seeing the... -

MAGGIE doesn't love himself enough, doesn't cherish himself enough, that's why he sees RALPH as more important than anything else, loves him at all costs, and worships him.
But he rationally ordered his needs. After firmly grasping MAGGIE's heart, he gave up on her and looked back at him occasionally.
MAGGIE is the bird, RALPH is the thorn,
she knew the pain and faced the thorn,
he knew she was in pain, and he stabbed her.
Maggie's self-sacrificing love and... -

I wanted to blame the cowardice of the hero, Love, but I couldn't.
His lifelong struggle for love, his dying repentance, he said: Among all the mistakes I made, the biggest one was that I never chose love. My love is half to God and half to you, but it's really my own ambition. This sentence moved me.
How many people in the world declare their selfishness and arrogance righteous without a struggle. And he's carried this struggle with him from the start, even as he feels...

what i've learned from this mini series
There's a story...a legend...about a bird that sings just once in its life. From the moment it leaves its nest, it searches for a thorn tree...and never rests until it's found one. And then it sings...more sweetly than any other creature on the face of the earth. And singing... it impales itself on the longest, sharpest thorn. But as it dies... it rises above its own agony... to out -sing the lark and the nightingale. The thorn bird pays its life...for just one song...but the whole world...

What made me think was faith and personal concern, and what I saw was the hypocrisy in Ralph's heart. What he pursued was not God or love, but his ambition. But in fact, I have no right to comment or even accuse him. What the human heart thinks, God naturally has insight. How much inner darkness and filth can't be covered up by seemingly bright actions. In addition, it is believed that forced abstinence is an act of alienation of belief. Hey, tangled...

I can't tell if the movie is good or bad, I just hate this story, why is it so bitter? Why does everyone have to hurt each other and can't get out of it for the rest of their lives? From Fey to Ralph to Meggie, it's all selfish and contrived, and even if it's a classic, I hate this story so...

'I love you, but I love god more.' One sentence sums up the whole drama. There are no subtitles, but after reading the original book, I am familiar with the plot, and the actors' lines are good, but it does not affect the viewing. The more obvious deletions are the life in New Zealand and World War II in the first chapter, and the last two chapters have also changed a lot. After reading the original book and then watching the drama, you may feel that some scenes will be very touching, and...

Luddie Mueller: Well we're just glad you did show up, Your Grace, It's good to know there's someone in the world who cares about the poor girl.
Ralph de Bricassart: Thank you. I want to go back into her.
[Anne stares after Ralph, as he goes back to Meggie]
Anne Mueller: Cares about her, Luddie? If you ask me, he's in love with her.

Anne Mueller: Oh, Meggie! You've the face of an angel and the body of a goddess, and what you mean is, you don't know how to make a man get you pregnant? What you need is a good education. Lady Chatterley's lover! And Henry Miller, definitely Henry Miller!

Meggie Cleary: The day that I first saw you at the Gilly station, you smiled at me, then you said my name. Then you touched me.
[She kisses him]
Meggie Cleary: And since that day, I have somehow known, though I never saw you again, that my last thought this side of the grave would be of you.
[shrugs]
Meggie Cleary: And there's nothing I can do to change it. Do you know how terrifying it is, that power you have over me?
