Although I am a fan of her books, the last time I read Austen's novels was three or four years ago. My memory is vague to a certain extent. Relying on my memory that cannot be completely accurate, I want to compare the characters in the movie with the novels. comparison in .
The most obvious is the young Allegra, except for her sexual orientation, she is the Marian of reason and emotion, young, enthusiastic, impulsive and not shy to praise herself. In just one year and six months in one play, she has already been. Twice off the list and twice again. It's just that there is no Willoughby by her side, nor the financial crisis that haunts her, nor is there Colonel Brandon as her last consolation, and the serious illness that almost took her life in the original book has also been fragmented into broken arms and concussion. Thanks to the women's liberation movement, the beautiful and active Allegra still carries the love of family and friends, and continues to live a glorious life of coming out. She is better than Marianne.
According to the family order, it seems that it is time to talk about Silvia. The mother-daughter relationship has replaced the sister relationship in sense and emotion. She is Eleanor, who sacrificed herself for the family, only to find that the person who has been married for 20 years has come out of the closet. , and firmly stated that it will not give up the third party. This almost takes her and Edward's situation out of the original book (I always felt that Eleanor was actually 3rd in the original book), the 3rd wheel is not young and not so beautiful, the only consolation is that she doesn't have to Like Eleanor, tacitly befriend the betrothed (…) of your crush. Her husband, Daniel, was a combination of Edward and Wentworth in persuasion, except that he was as unfaithful as Edward, but for the same reasons Wentworth favored Louisa, for Proving that he is still attractive, this cheeky and persistent husband who pursues happiness for himself, and finally tries to return to the family by begging the way also combines the two lines, boldly confessing like Edward, and with the efficiency of the school, wrote in the early morning The chicken feather letter sent, based on the emotional foundation, begged Silvia's forgiveness.
Let's wish the family happiness and then turn to others who are less complicated.
Prudie, this lovely, fair-skinned and big-eyed, stereotyped high school teacher, looks like a frigid/sexy repression. She is Mansfield's Fanny, and what we don't know is how, under the pull of the "Beat Generation," she earned her status as a middle-class intellectual. She doesn't have a mother who was born noble but married the wrong man, her mother is the opposite of firewood; she also doesn't have an alcoholic and vulgar father, her father is just a concept, a photo of dubious origin. Mansfield Mansion did not invite her, this girl with childhood shadows all over her body, from the beginning of the film to the end of the film, no one can really blame her. Her Edmund wasn't an aristocratic dick either, Dean grew up in front of a TV screen that was always sporting, and thought Austin could only be a city in Texas. Applause for this straight guy who didn't run off to flirt with Mary Crawford, either. Prudie's Henry Crawford is ten thousand times more difficult than Austen's original, this dizzy teenager with youth hormones all over his body, looking at his high school French teacher, "Like he's a spoon , I'm like ice cream". This girl's Fanny-style Puritan forbearance and self-discipline did not fall off the chain at the last moment. The little milk dog could only watch the teacher run away from the other side of the road. In this dimension, the only one who can elope with him is the motorcycle. .
Jocelyn is Emma, who is keen on matchmaking and quickly draws conclusions based on first impressions. However, Grigg has fulfilled the dreams of some book fans. He is an uncompromising Frank in terms of age and hobbies, but when Jocelyn is addicted to matchmaking , he said that it was Mr Knightley who taught her the air and the air. What I find interesting about this couple personally is that their relationship milestones are marked with Amway in bold: one party likes the other party, so he tries to eat Amway, the other party doesn't eat Amway because he was not interested in him at first. Later, because of the face of being a matchmaker, I could not show jealousy, and I began to despise this Amway. Finally, I wanted to open it, and I also took the initiative to start eating Amway. I drove to the other party's house in the early morning to ask for more Amway. The apple among the people.
Bernadett is a lesser and indispensable binder, not one of the female characters in Austen's novels, and every one of them; she was Mrs. Bennett in her first marriage, and she was Li Dia, that boldness where love at first sight must blossom is like Marianne, she brings people together to read, and her obsession with helping people is like Emma and Eleanor, who sometimes sits there Laughing and not talking is Charlotte again. At the end of the film, it races against time to enter the seventh marriage. The huge emerald on the ring finger seems to be the hostess of Pembelli... And off-screen, I am as picky as Mr. Darcy, I always thought this lady was a narrator wallflower at the ball, until the last scene, and like Henry Crawford, I thought she was the most beautiful and the best.
"Austin Book Club" was revisited three times by me, and I bought the electronic version of Austin's complete works on the kindle. The times are progressing. Now you can easily put the kindle on the stand when you eat, and you don't need to be like the old one. I was in a hurry to separate my hands and keep pressing Mansfield Manor, that version was a hard cover, and it was very difficult to flatten.
