Here, only talk about movies, not history
First of all, Tolstoy mentioned in the chat in the film that in the first three years of his encounter and marriage with his wife, he and his wife could be said to have a good understanding of each other. That's why Tolstoy fell in love with his wife. And they have been together for so many years, and the long flow of water makes this kind of love enduring.
One of the contradictions emphasized in the film is that Toweng wants to realize his doctrine, which is actually to distribute family property and copyrights to the poor. However, Mrs. Towon was thinking about real issues, how to maintain a normal life for the family without these family properties, and the quiet work that Tolstoy liked and so on. So there is a contradiction between ideal and reality.
Let's look at love again. It can be said that the Tolstoy couple loved each other deeply at all times. Tolstoy's running away from home was actually to escape, to escape the huge contradiction between reality and ideal. And the lady who gradually changed under this contradiction (she became crazy and irritable). Just imagine, after high mountains and flowing water meet bosom friend, after Zhong Qi met, Zhong Ziqi finally no longer understand Boya due to various reasons, what kind of loneliness it is. This kind of loneliness is not because of Zhong Ziqi's death, Boya's death, and his death. Instead, he watched helplessly as his former confidant turned into a stranger. You are by my side but you turn a blind eye, this kind of loneliness is even more sad. But Tolstoy loved his wife from beginning to end, so he could only choose to escape this loneliness. This kind of loneliness that grows day by day under his wife's madness and irritability. This also explains why he ran away from home and did not get a divorce, and when he was dying of a serious illness, what he still wanted to see most was her wife. It is a profound proof that love and loneliness coexist.
