I really don't like this show at all!

The reasons for not liking it are as follows- 1. People who have endured the
heroine's wife for
a while have arranged the heroine's life and trajectory without any consideration for what she needs. Even the youngest sister also orders her sister as a matter of course, and there is such a family ! There is a sense of tragedy that is deliberately created. Of course, I really don't like the character of the heroine! There is no resistance, no complaints, until the end of the film to work hard for love. So that when love swept in again, as an audience, I could not experience a trace of excitement.

I specially watched other versions, and I went... The actors couldn't bear to look directly at them (except for the first few versions, some of the characters were too beautiful). Even if Annie is an older unmarried girl, she shouldn't ask her aunt to play it! That kind of person who looks in his forties at first glance, what does the director think!

The actors in this version are okay, and their acting skills are also good, but the performance feels that the wife is too restrained. The confrontation between the male and female protagonists looks good, but I don't realize the passion QAQ. The heroine does not feel like a lady at all, she is just a maid at home , yes, that's the feeling, the ultimate reason why I don't like this version at all!

Even if Annie is a submissive child in the original book, she is also a big lady! How can you act like a maid! What is the director thinking?

2. I also don't like
long shots, long shots... all kinds of long shots. The four characters "I'm not happy" are written on the faces of the various protagonists. I remember that the KK version of P&P also has this effect. Although it is beautiful, it loses the feeling of the original work. Although the picture is beautiful, the characters are exaggerated (the 05 version of P&P was blackened again).

However, a movie of more than 100 minutes requires It seems completely impossible to fully reflect the plot of the novel? Therefore, Austin's films are always criticized, and the BBC is firmly in the classic position, no one can shake it...

Persuasion quotes

  • Lady Russell: Anne! Who is Admiral Croft? And why does he cause you to be out of countenance so?... Anne.

    Anne Elliot: Admiral Croft's wife is... is...

    Lady Russell: Mrs. Croft.

    Anne Elliot: Indeed. And Mrs. Croft is the sister of Captain... Frederick Wentworth.

    Lady Russell: Wentworth? I see. I see.

    Anne Elliot: To think that soon he may be walking through this house.

    Lady Russell: Anne, you know that your father thought it a most unsuitable match. He would never have countenanced an alliance he deemed so degrading.

    Anne Elliot: He was not alone, as I recall.

    Lady Russell: My dear, to become engaged at 19, in the middle of a war, to a young naval officer who had no fortune and no expectations. You would indeed have been throwing yourself away. And I should have been failing in my duty as your godmother if I did not counsel against it. You were young, and it was entirely prudent to break off the understanding.

  • Sir Walter Elliot: Come, come, Anne! We must not be late. You cannot have forgotten we have an invitation from Lady Dalrymple.

    Anne Elliot: I regret I am already engaged to spend the evening with an old school-friend.

    Elizabeth Elliot: Not that sickly old widow in Westgate-buildings?

    Anne Elliot: Mrs Smith. Yes.

    Sir Walter Elliot: Smith? Westgate building?

    Mrs. Clay: Excuse me.

    Sir Walter Elliot: And who, pray, is Mrs Smith? One of the five thousand Smiths that are everywhere to be met with? Upon my word, Miss Anne Elliot, you have the most extraordinary taste. To place such a person ahead of your own family connections among the nobility of England and Ireland. Mrs Smith!

    Anne Elliot: Perhaps she is not the only poor widow in Bath with little to live on and no surname of dignity. Good evening.
