Because Ang Lee and the original book watched this film, they were fascinated by Colonel Brandon of Alan Rickman.
He came out very late. A man in his 30s and 40s, who has an estate in his family and participated in wars, was alone for various reasons. In one afternoon, he was invited to be a guest at his friend's house, and from a distance he heard a soft female voice coming out of his friend's house, softly softly, like a ray of sunlight shining into his frozen heart for many years. He couldn't help approaching, and from outside the door he saw the owner of the voice, a young and beautiful girl, glowing brilliantly under the soft light. He stayed at the door and looked at him for ten thousand years.
She is innocent, she is kind, she has an extremely beautiful vision of love, and she expects love to sweep over like a tornado. He knew that she would not consider him. So he only paid attention to her silently, silently, keeping the gentleman's smile at all times. When she played bowling, he silently picked up the ball for her. She was picking weeds by the river, and he silently passed the knife and left without saying a word. He used his velvety voice to read her sonnets, but she disliked him as plain and without passion. He invited everyone to a picnic, even her unfriended sweetheart. She wanted to go for a drive with her sweetheart alone, so he silently helped her get into the car. Although he knew that man might not be reliable, he still hoped that she could get the love he was looking forward to.
He treats her so well, everyone knows that he admires her, but she loves another unreliable man, and eventually she is heartbroken by that man and almost died of illness. He couldn't stop thinking of various ways, finally rescued her, and finally waited for her to say "thank you" and was satisfied.
In the end, she finally saw the world clearly, no longer naive, tried to accept him, tried to get used to listening to him reading poems in a tepid voice, and tried to enjoy a flat and stable life. Maybe she won't love him with that kind of passion after all, but I know he must be very satisfied, able to care for this flower until he grows old.
