01
Different from the original book, in the movie, the director arranged for Emma to die alone. She was dressed gorgeously and ran desperately on the country lane covered with dead leaves... At the moment before her death, she reviewed her life again. Emma's difference began in the convent where she lived as a girl. In the training of the painting class, everyone is copying a heron. And Emma stood aside, she copied the roof of the monastery, a gorgeous crystal lamp. In the first 5 minutes of the whole film, there is no dialogue, just a few shots, showing everyone a female image who is not ordinary. Emma is different almost by nature. After walking out of the monastery, Emma ran to her love.
02 The wedding was held at my father's house. On the way home with Charlie, Emma couldn't hide her disappointment, and Charlie was equally puzzled about Emma's behavior of using one afternoon to cook dinner. At the dinner table he talked about treating patients with leeches, bloodletting, and checking the patient's chamber pot. Emma frowned. Before long, the first visitor to the home, Mrs. Chris, the dresser, complimented Emma and encouraged her that he had a way to get everything she wanted, even on credit. As we can see later, he appears many times, and he captures Emma almost by smell. The location at this time, the director arranged in Yongweier, is still a village that can be walked in 5 minutes. 03 Emma met Lyon here. The landlord introduced him and said: I can't find a second, more romantic person in France. The second visitor is Lyon. He invited Emma out for a walk and prepared a gift for her, which confirmed their common attributes. They had a wonderful afternoon together, Leon was handsome, rich and interesting, and Emma's life came back to life. Soon, Lyon confessed to Emma. At this time, Emma held the first line of defense, but she was abnormally psychologically contradictory. She pinned her hopes on religion, but the priest was also a secular man, and he kept interrupting Emma to remind her how happy she was. Emma left disappointed. Disappointed Lyon went to Neri&Hu. Emma is sick. Day by day suffer. She suggested living in Paris or Neri&Hu. Mr. Bovary asked: Do you really think that a small doctor in the countryside can go to the big city to show his hands and feet? This angered Emma. She lost her temper at him for the first time.
04 Marcus is the third visitor. Here, all the important characters in the movie appear. The promotion of all important plots was also arranged in the home of the Bovary couple. His companion was wounded in the hunt, and while seeking Bovary's healing, he saw Emma playing the piano. He immediately invited them to the mansion as a guest. There were three people in a row, and every man who appeared beside Emma seemed to be an uninvited guest. The director didn't explain too much in this section. They rode a horse together, but Emma, who returned to life, suddenly changed. She buys clothes, resets furniture, and changes them one by one as far as she can see. She looked like she was about to restart her life. 05 Next, the film condenses the provocative scenes that accompany the large-scale farmers' gathering into a more private space. Marcus confesses to Madame Bovary, who again refuses. The film seems to give Madame Bovary an opportunity to speak righteously, as well as an irrefutable reason for the viewer. The next day, however, Madame Bovary herself put herself on Marcus' bed. After that, it was sent to the door frequently. Speaking of support, it probably stems from the "famous" operation, in which Charlie taught himself to operate on people, which almost killed him. Madame Bovary said bitterly: He is a butcher! Completely fell for him. She decides to run away with Mascu, but Mascu runs away. Madame Bovary fell. 06 The next episode of the movie completely continued the mode of the novel. The Bovary couple went to Neri&En, reunited with Lyon, and relived their old dreams. Madame Bovary's bills were also growing. The film uses a short 120 minutes to shave the flesh and bones of a novel of more than 200,000 words. But the images of the characters are obviously more layered. The treacherous hypocrisy of the clothing merchant, the material opium he provided to Emma, while bringing short-lived pleasure, also pushed her into the abyss. Charlie doesn't seem to know everything. Faced with Emma's unexpected bill, he yelled: Not everyone can be rich! What about Emma? In addition to her dissatisfaction and struggle with ordinary life, there is also no lack of intolerance and sympathy for suffering. She borrowed 300 francs to give Ippolite a prosthesis. Unlike Emma, Ippolite is deeply numb and accepting of suffering. But Emma eventually suffered the consequences. At the end of her life, she went to church again. The priest asked her, "Are you here to make amends?" She said, "No!" The movie ended. 07 "When I was a kid, I also had a similar map, and every night I closed my eyes and imagined myself walking across boulevards, across small bridges, in a carriage, through the hustle and bustle of people, wearing Passing the crowds running everywhere." When Leon gave her the gift, she said cheerfully. It was a map showing the whole of Paris. "Not everyone can be rich!" But Emma, why not? She was unhappy about it. All her struggles stemmed from unwillingness. Everyone is Madame Bovary.
