Second time watching The Thorn Birds

Houston 2022-11-03 10:30:35

The first time I watched it was 5 years ago. When I applied for XX for the first time, I was shocked that there was such a good movie on the school's campus network, but I discovered it so late. I remember that when I went to Beijing for the re-examination, I was still reading the electronic version of the original book at my eldest sister's house on the speeding computer of XX brother. At that time, my eldest sister sighed that her English is good, you can read the original version. There is an unspeakable conceit in my heart.
After watching this movie after 5 years, the favorite is Ralph, also because of his grace, civilization, gentleness, sweetness, depth, etc. But this time, I saw his grandness. He always said that others are better than himself Well, better than myself, closer to God than myself, but, I think, he is the closest person to God. Because, Meggie is not as grand and compassionate as his world, and Dane is not as complex and rich as his. He really did not have arrogance, but he was arrogant. His humility comes from seeing all his weaknesses, struggling, struggling with himself, experiencing mistakes and failures. Too proud to love, someone would make such a mistake. Ralph experienced it himself, and has since had true humility. He regarded Meggie's love higher than his own, so when he was dying, as a Cathedral, his head drooped in front of Meggie. Ralph said: There are no ambitions noble enough to justify plaking someone's heart. On the other hand, I am wrapped in ambition and proud. I think the education career I want to pursue is like Ralph's pursuit of God's light and love. As a teacher, I feel like a missionary. Lonely alone struggle with darkness. I have passed the age of that silly boy sleeping on a cool bed. Although, I still inevitably do some things like this, but my way of looking at things and people is not the same as before. I'm not a person who can give up on myself. I don't think students' ideals are more important than my own. I also don't see people around me who can be called perfect teachers. Among the people around, it is only a means of making a living or a means of promotion. Can't see someone like EL. But, Dennis is. Sometimes I really value myself enough to sacrifice my family or hurt a colleague, but what am I compared to Ralph? Just a pauper who has nothing. One of the things Ralph appreciates about Meggie is this: After all that, in the end, you've always been able to loe. For all you've lost, you'
The most beautiful scene is that they meet and combine at the seaside. It is not that Ralph has fallen, but that he has risen. He thinks that these injuries are brought to Meggie by him, so he wants to heal Meggie's injuries in this way, the only way, and the most direct way. Meggie really recovered and lived proudly alone. This thorn, but stabbed back to Ralph: That after Mattlock Island, you could go back to Luck, give him a son, this is Ralph's understanding and trust in human nature at a higher level. He was still looking down on people. In the end, it was Meggie who filled the void: You couldn't love me enough to see that I would never have gone back to Luck or to any man after you. Thus, although Ralph's heart aches, trust in love The scars are healed forever. So, when he confessed his injustice to Meggie over the years, he was happy - Meggie's love for him was thorough and permanent. Having regained his love for mankind, he opened his heart and waited for Meggie's forgiveness. Because, she never stops loving.
When I watch it again, especially when I see the confrontation between Ralph and Meggie, I will think: one day, I will watch this movie with the people who will be with me for the rest of my life, and I will He discusses the mental map of the protagonist, who has movements and scenery that I can't see.
So, my favorite English names are: Andrew, Arthur, Ralph, Robin... In the future, my children will take these names one by one. ^-^
