When Margaret's family moved to Milton, except for Mr. Hale, the female family members were not satisfied with Milton's mess, but Mrs. Hale said: like it or not, we're here. A very common sentence , but it is also an attitude to life, isn't it? Later, Margaret made friends here, understood the way of life here, and even accepted Mr. Thornton. This is also a kind of growth, isn't it? Margaret is a very lovely girl, she has a sense of justice, love, and courage. She has her own values and choices. In the end, she chose to go through difficulties with Mr. Thornton. She likes this kind of girl very much. How many modern people can hold on to it?
And Mr. Thornton, a character of great love! He is very responsible, and his anger towards the illegal workers from the first appearance is the embodiment of his sense of responsibility, and he can think about the safety of the entire factory; unlike other factory owners, Thornton not only considers the profit of the factory, but also considers the safety of the factory. Fully consider the health of the workers; although the method was inappropriate at the beginning and there were conflicts with the workers, after mutual understanding, the welfare of the workers began to be improved, love! Thornton is also a person who loves learning. He asks Mr. Hale for advice humbly, participates in discussions enthusiastically, and likes to study philosophy. He is a factory owner who pays attention to spiritual pursuits. Burying love deep in our hearts, one look and one expression can bring us into his mental activities, which is a very expressive performance!
The end of the film. The train stopped temporarily, Margaret got off, stood on the platform, and looked at the train passing by, with surprise and anticipation in her eyes. It happened that Mr. Thornton was also there. The two met, and life was not missed. Very happy ending! It's the charming and heartfelt part of a lot of BBC dramas, and while it's common and familiar, I still love it.
In addition to loving people, the family here is also very touching. Mrs. Thornton loved her son dearly, and she tried to like the man he liked - very mother! "A mother's love holds fast and forever. A girl's love is like a puff of smoke", a steady stream of mother's love that never disappears, but is often the source of the contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in real life, isn't it? Of course, this is another story. And after Mr. Thornton went bankrupt, he was thankful that Fanny had money to spend—good brother!
The biggest regret in the whole drama is that the worker who broke eggs inexplicably wanted to abscond and then committed suicide inexplicably, but no one was responsible for it. It's really a capitalist society!

I recently liked the BBC's classic blockbusters and discovered the South and the North, so I decided to look for the original.
Thanks BBC!
