As a British manor movie, the setting and costumes of the movie are very beautiful and sophisticated, and the theme of love, although it is easy to compare with Jane Austen’s works, is not the same as the almost purely female perspective, and many parts It is more interesting. First of all, most of the men in the film love for money. For example, Henry married Margaret in order to prevent the Howards Manor from accidentally falling into the hands of Margaret, Leonard was ambiguous with Helen in order to enter the upper class, and women were purely love. Soul, Margaret doesn’t mind that Henry once had a lover and marry him. Helen ran away for Leonard and gave birth to a son. In the end, it was a triumphant ending with anti-patriarchal women, which had a different general social significance at the time. As for the emotional details involved in the whole film, the stratification of society has a deeper level of narrative and reflection, and more importantly, Emma Thompson, Anthony Hopkins, Helena Bonham Carter, etc. are all relatively superior The performance of the film has brightened the film a lot.

    At that time, I was fascinated by the beautiful manor at the beginning of the home party, but I found it boring to watch the whole film, and the relationship between the characters in the film adapted from Foster's novel was never clear.

Howards End quotes

  • Margaret Schlegel: I deny it's madness.

    Henry Wilcox: But you said yourself...

    Margaret Schlegel: It's madness when I say it, but not when you say it.

  • Margaret Schlegel: Will you forgive her as you yourself have been forgiven... you have had a mistress; I forgave you. My sister has a lover, you drive her from the house. Why can you not be honest for once in your life? Why can't you say what Helen has done, I have done!
