The 2004 film, adapted from the drama Lady Windermere's Fan (1892) by Irish playwright/writer/poet Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), critics criticized the film's name for poorly changed: You know you're in trouble when someone adapts Oscar Wilde's Lady Windermere's Fan and changes the title to something totally forgettable. ~Jeffrey M. Anderson (Combustible Celluloid/ www.rottentomatoes.com ). Although "A Good Woman" is a seemingly common name, it clearly brings out a girl The role of the protagonist Mrs. Erlynne (Helen Hunt) in the story and the theme of the movie.

This woman who does not seem to be "good" at all, is a well-known man's plaything, and has an affair with the husbands of many celebrities and wives, many people Everyone regards her as a prostitute and thinks she is shameless. The background of the story is in the 1930s, in order to escape debts, she ran a long way from New York, the United States, to Paris. Once she arrived, she repeated her old tricks and made a lot of high-class women Make irresponsible remarks.

Scarlett Johansson plays the role of Meg Windermere. It is the Lady Windermere in Wilde's play. She doesn't play much in the film. It is an opportunity for Helen Hunt to show her talents. A film critic said: "As if Helen Hunt could ever steal a guy away from Scarlett Johansson" ~Willie Waffle (wafflemovies.com/rottentomatoes.com). It made me laugh when I saw it, but in the movie, Helen Hunt also has a little taste, at least more attractive than her in "As Good As It Gets", maybe the movie Intentionally making Scarlett Johansson uncomfortable, Helen Hunt's success in seduce Windermere's husband by mistake is a bit convincing. A

good script, perhaps thanks to Oscar Wilde. The movie talks about trust, atonement, suspicion, and men and women. In In Oscar Wilde's pen, there are many wonderful dialogues in the movie:

"A man who moralizes is usually a hypocrite, and a woman who moralizes is invariably plain."

"I don't like compliments, and I don't see why a man should think he is pleasing a woman enormously when he says to her a whole heap of things that he doesn't mean."

"Crying is the refuge of plain women but the ruin of pretty ones."

"It Takes A Thoroughly Good Woman A Thoroughly Stupid Thing to do."

"Women with the prefer the I A Past. They're SO Damned Always amusing to Talk to."

And watching DVDs with my mother, she was also seen with relish, A movie that is very suitable for mother and daughter to watch together.

  • Dumby: Do you think she'd look at you if you were poor?

    Tuppy: Do you think I'd look at her if she were ugly? Fair's fair, exchange rates and so forth. Well I know she's had her this and her that... but if a man can tolerate his own past... why not a past in his wife?

  • Dumby: Women inspire us to great things.

    Cecil: Then somehow prevent us from doing any of them.
