Modern Stories and Classical Roads

A nice modern story!

But reading it is just watching it, and it only adds to the sigh, or adds some life experience and insights; but it does not benefit people themselves, and it does not improve people.

Unlike classical works that can open up an upward space for people, or at least open up an upward space for you, so that you can have an upward perspective, and encourage you, inspire you, and make you live with the life you have. The ability to pursue and follow the direction and purpose of life itself, integrate into the overall order of the universe, fulfill the things themselves, but also fulfill themselves, practice the mission of human beings, and truly live as human beings!

    I haven't read the novel, but I know it's a classic. The film is nearly three hours long, and the story is told in a leisurely manner. In fact, the plot is quite simple and has the characteristics of the era. But in the end, Tess's tragedy can actually be avoided. Two men, a hypocrite and a real villain, are not good people. The accent of the actress is a little strange. It looks German, no wonder, but she looks so beautiful.

    Wasn't Tess the tragedy of her life? I don't see a little sunshine and positiveness in her personality, she is dull, sad, melancholy, and her IQ is not online. Beauty is also a talent of a person, but she does not know how to use it rationally. Don't be reserved when you should be reserved, and pretend to be lofty when you shouldn't be self-respecting. / In the play, the man's requirement for a woman's physical purity reminds me of "Stolen Heart".

Tess quotes

  • Alec d'Urberville: What are you crying for?

    Tess: I was only thinkin', I was born over there.

    Alec d'Urberville: Well, we all have to be born somewhere.

    Tess: Why, I wish I'd never been born. There or anywhere else.

    Alec d'Urberville: You're absurdly melancholy, Tess. You can hold your own for beauty against any woman, queen or commoner. I tell you that as a practical man who wishes you well. If you're wise, you'll let the world get a clearer sight of that beauty, before it fades. Why not make the most of life?

  • Girl in henhouse: You watch out for... the Bailiff. He's a devil. Not, Mr. Alec. He spends half his time on horseback and the rest of it chasin' the likes of us! Oh, his mother's a queer old soul; but, no real trouble. Tis a mercy for us she's blind!

    Tess: Mrs. d'Urberville's blind?

    Girl in henhouse: Stone blind! Their real name is Stokes!

    Tess: How's that?

    Girl in henhouse: Oh, Mr. Alec's father had the notion. He bought the name of an old distinguished family to make himself important.
