You can also understand the title as
"it's enough to meet a scumbag in your life"
anyway, that's what I mean, I
just don't want to be a vicious headline party.


What kind of person is Jane Austen?


Probably in terms of personality, she is very similar to the heroine of "Pride and Prejudice", an independent pioneer, subject to the family etiquette tradition, living in resistance, growing herself, and chasing love. It's just that Elizabeth finally reaps love, while Jane ends love in rational regret. However, this end is more like a beautiful eternity.


"Becoming Jane Austen"


The film extracts the well-known love stories from Jane's life experience as the main line, focusing on depicting the image of Jane and her first love, as well as Jane's growth under this big timeline.

Jane, played by Anne Hathaway, is beautiful and passionate, and her eyes also have a sensible and firm light. For her girl and the time of love, it can be said to be the prototype of Jane. But compared to the state where she experienced her first love and then completely wrote for a living, the wisdom and brilliance of an independent woman reached its peak, Annie's aura was still a little more impetuous. Even Annie, who appeared in an elegant and charming outfit with her hair up at the end, could not help but think of her panic-stricken image in the next second.


There will be a certain degree of spoilers in the future. Personally, I think it is some small clues and details, which can be seen in the biography and introduction, and will not affect the viewing of the movie.



First encounter: A manic love stirred up by a little yellow book



How well Tom Lefroy can seduce girls, this passage is fully exposed. As arrogant as Jane, the boy who has a bad first impression is probably the kind that will go straight to the red card. But Tom has become Jane's most precious first love. Tom gives a set of guidelines for successfully seducing young women in the arts.



Didn't you say you love to write and be proud of it? Then I'll kill your arrogance first. Tom slept in front of everyone while Jane proudly read her own work (in this sense, the previous bad impression was intentional, he wouldn't fall in love with the first second he entered the room Jane?!)

Don't you like reading books? Then I will show you that I am also a quiet and beautiful man who loves to read books in private, and I have read books you have never read, and my collection is much larger than yours. If you love to read, I will read it to you, but the paragraphs that Tom read are not only sultry, but also paragraphs that Jane has never experienced and cannot write (conquer in terms of knowledge. Read the sensational scene of the little yellow book, and then lend it out. .)



You said my flower name is outside? I will show in front of you that I am happy to help others, that I am upright and brave, and draw a sword to help when I see injustice. When I fell, I knew you would take my hand and cry and say to me, I'm sorry, I blame you in the wrong.

Besides, I'm handsome, I can play football, and I have the best taste in clothing among the male friends around you.



After expressing the above, Tom only needs to do one thing, that is, wherever Jane is, Tom's scorching eyes will burn wherever. In the middle, supplemented by the slight contact of the body, the gentleman does his best. Then wait for the goddess to send an invitation and throw her arms around.


Elopement: Put on this heavy yoke in the name of love



I don't know who invented it. If after you run away, you are someone who no longer cares about the two families, and cut off the old roots, there will only be you and me in the world, and then you will be like me, even if you are poor and nourished by love, you can be treated as a Sea cucumber and abalone, you feed me, I feed you. But if you elope, you still need to send money to your family to support six or seven younger siblings. Now you have to eat and dress, and later you will get married and have children; and you will be charged with the "crime" of elopement, you will have a loss of morality, and it will be difficult to find a job... ...(Then please don't mention the elopement, okay?!)



Although Tom made an oath and a sincere commitment, he was willing to carry all of these, as long as he was with Jane. But Jane refused. This is when Jane's wisdom first shines.




Regarding the scumbag, here is a mention. Tom and Jane were pushed to the possibility of only eloping and being together. The biggest contributor to this situation was this scumbag. A letter revealed Jane's family background and past, and Tom's way of persuading his uncle was completely blocked. Although according to the character design, this road is inherently obstructed and long, and nine times out of ten it is a dead end that cannot be reached.


Reunion: Time is a good medicine, and precipitation is a gift


The part I liked and found the most touching in the movie was the reunion in the last ten minutes. Tom embarked on the path of an ordinary man, married Bai Fumei, and his career was also at its peak. And Jane, picked up her feelings and devoted herself to writing. "Pride and Prejudice" made her famous and became a beautiful writer.



Tom named his daughter Jane. Jane Austen also made an exception to the request of Jane's little girl to read in public. The round of responses from Jane and Tom is heartbreakingly beautiful. The change in Tom's expression at the end, from surprise to red eyes to comforting and happy smile, is extremely delicate.




We all know that Jane, like her sister, has never been married in her life. Because of this, she has become a role model for many independent women. She is not a person who has a lot of fun in life, but she is calmly doing what she loves and standing in the age of immortality.

Some people will still ask if Jane Austen has love as she wishes, will she lose a master in the literary world? ! This assumption is destined to remain at the hypothetical level. Reality is always helpless and difficult to control, but in the novel, Jane can make her heroine meet a happy ending after suffering. Perhaps, this is her gentle counterattack against the reality of this world.
