20-year cycle, predecessors plant trees, and later generations enjoy the shade

The novel "Wuthering Heights" was read when I was in junior high school. At that time, I was too young, and I just thought it was weird and poignant. Earlier, probably in elementary school, I was confused and saw a version. One of the most impressive scenes is the actor sitting stiffly in a chair, not eating or drinking, his eyes are empty, and then his body slowly decays until it turns into a skeleton... Love to the extreme is paranoia . Fall in love and kill each other, pay for the wrong life.

A brief analysis of the characters' characters, as far as this movie is concerned, I think Casey's characters are mainly vanity, reality and selfishness, and the others don't seem to be too faulty. Westcliff, on the other hand, has obvious character flaws. Sensitive, gloomy and inferior, bringing all kinds of misfortune to himself and those close to him.

First love, not being able to love, is indeed painful. Ordinary people usually lick their wounds alone and let them go slowly, but our male protagonist obviously won't compromise easily - he wants to perform a revenge that is earth-shattering and crying ghosts and gods. . Watching enemies, lovers and rivals die one by one, the fire of revenge burns and intensifies.

Living in dire straits for 20 years, he not only wants to subvert his own life, but also tries to change the fate of the next generation - to marry Kathy's daughter and his own son. However, fate played tricks, and his son's life was short, and he died in Huangquan soon. At this time, there is a secret affection between Catherine and the servant. Perhaps even Heathcliff himself didn't realize that this was another reincarnation - these two young people were just like Casey and himself back then, but they were purer, braver, and dared to pursue love than they were back then.

Of course, I would also like to thank Westcliff for all the preparatory work. The first is to knock Kathy's daughter from heaven to hell, from a rich family daughter to a widow who was deceived into marriage, her father died and her property was taken away. It is precisely because of this that she will be able to be with her servants more logically later (otherwise, she cannot bear this psychological gap, and she will most likely dislike the lowliness of servants like her mother); It's dead, leaving a large fortune for two children. Without material worries, children can only boldly pursue love~~ This is probably the so-called "predecessors plant trees, and future generations enjoy the shade."

As for the difference between the 92 edition and the original and the 39 edition, I will read the 1939 edition again. Just write it here.

The End~
