The "sensible" Annie will not be Annie

This series of books by Annie has accompanied me through a very difficult time in high school. I like the original book very much and I am looking forward to this new drama. There are many differences between the new play and the original, but this does not affect it. It is still a very good play in my mind.

In the process of watching, I used to feel "This Anne is really unpleasant" because of Anne's words, impulsiveness and other behaviors, but when seeing the chaos caused by Maryla and Matthew for Anne, I felt more distressed than angry. , I suddenly discovered that I was really stupid. "It's not her fault," Marila said. Why Annie talks so much, is so obsessed with her own world, why she has so many fantasies of being a princess, all her weird, uncomfortable and even annoying things all stem from her being an orphan and the discrimination and harm she has suffered. She is addicted to her world to reduce her loneliness. She can sacrifice everything in order to have a family and friendship. I really love her. Watching her talking to herself, becoming friends with herself in the mirror, fantasizing that she is a princess, watching her get angry with Gilbert in order to get friends, seeing her sensitive and impulsive, she shouldn't be like this.

Yes, if she is not an orphan, without freckles and red hair, with her intelligence, she will be "sensible" and well-behaved, just like other girls, "pleasing" or even stronger, but she is also ordinary Is the girl, she is not Annie. The TV series probably strengthened these characteristics and added many other plots for theatrical conflict, but this did not change anything. But what is "sensible"? Isn't Annie sensible enough? How can a perfect protagonist win the love of some audiences? In addition to Annie's strengths, she has to be "quiet as a mouse", to accept it? Oh my goodness, is this practical? I don’t know if anyone who hates Annie understands what Montgomery wanted to tell us through her when she wrote about this girl. Annie is really not perfect. When she first came to Green Gable, it was a lot of problems. Please don’t stand by anyone who criticizes her. Is it okay to judge others from our perspective? If most of us have experienced the death of our parents and are sent to an orphanage, we are excluded and discriminated against because we are different because of our natural "weird and ugly", and we are beaten and abused at the employer's house. Hi", I'm afraid we can't even be kind and keep loving life, right? Montgomery understood this, and she allowed Anne to grow more in subsequent books. Isn't it incomprehensible that Annie's "unpleasant" comes? People who don't understand, just like Bi's mother, don't know how to put yourself in the position, and talk about equality without sympathy.

Mariela said, "She has never been disciplined. It is not her fault." The orphan Anne, who has encountered Anne like this, is still lively, warm, kind, and loves life. I love her heartily, and thank Marie and Matthew for adopting her. Thank you Annie for walking with me through that time. I am also very happy to see the Prince Edward Island in the book appear in front of me in a real picture. The play is very good, and the actors' acting skills can't be overstated. I like it very much.
