The timid "I" who had no opinion and timidity still obeyed the arrangement of fate and could not refuse to step into Mandeli, the beautiful palace-like home. "I" looked at everything in amazement, and that was "my" future home. But this beautiful house didn't bring me a feeling of happiness and warmth, instead, there was an empty coldness that made me gasp, as if "I" never belonged to it. In Mandeli's days, "I" lived unhappily every day, always crying secretly. If you accidentally break a valuable item, you will be as nervous as a servant, afraid of being discovered by others; looking at the guests coming in and out, "I" are like an outsider and don't pay attention, like a stupid bird, forever Can't learn to deal with high-class people; and Mr. Derwent also began to make "me" feel strange, and he also pretended to be himself in front of "me" and rarely told "me" what was on his mind. In such an unequal relationship between two people, "I" naturally needs to be observant and obedient, otherwise he will change his face, growl or be angry at any time... However, time can change a person, no matter how stupid a person can do it. . When you choose a new way of life, you have to take on a new kind of life pressure. It's just that in the face of invisible pressure, your own true happiness has disappeared, and your ego has become unimportant. As Mr. Derwent said at the end of the film: "After all this, I can't find the innocent girl who knew nothing." Mr. Derwent still likes to understand the world of life and is unique However, the real life forced him to give up the "I" in his heart and accept an "I" who behaved properly, made him feel honored, and was no different from other upper-class women. "I" changed, not because of love. In fact, love has no power at all. I just changed for the life I chose. For the whole family, this is a good thing, but for "me", the day when "me" began to change himself and give up self is the beginning of "me"'s sadness in life.
I used to like watching the scene where the heroine meets the hero and then marries into a wealthy family. Maybe I was too naive at that time and thought that was the beginning of a happy life and the meaning of a perfect life. But now I look at this movie from a completely different angle, and now I think the happiest scene in this movie is when the hero and heroine leave Manderry Manor and live a new life that belongs to the two of them, a kind of It can make life easy for both people...but this kind of thinking may be simpler and more naive.
