I had the privilege of watching "Little Women" on "Luo Luo Said Movie", and with Luo Luo's perfect interpretation of the movie and curiosity about the famous book, I read Olcott's "Little Women".
The movie is beautiful, the commentary is beautiful, the story in the book is also beautiful, under the description of the text, meg, Joe, Beth, Amy four sisters will often form a vague and clear figurative in the mind, the facial features are clear, together and disillusioned.
In short, the four sisters have their own characteristics and beauty.
Of course, the most touching thing in the book is that "love" is the most beautiful, which makes people painful and warm, as if they see the gray and green of life, and even the colorful colors embellish this "love" word, making it look lifelike, beautiful and beautiful.
First, beauty lies in family affection
What would the family be like without Mrs. March? I can't imagine it.
As Mrs. March, the mother, teaching is always very methodical. In the growth process of the four sisters, she really became a model for mothers, able to teach each daughter's personality according to her aptitude, and finally let each daughter grow into a little woman without losing style.
Let's start with our Meg, who is particularly impressed that after Meg became a mother, she was tied up in the woman's attic and ignored John.
In order not to disturb Meg and the children, as well as to caress his wounded heart, John often went to his friends after work to find another spiritual sustenance.
Over time, when the children gradually developed the biological clock, Meg found his own gap, but found that he was not trimming, the home was in a mess, there was no warmth of the past, and he did not see John's figure.
Meg suddenly felt that she was shackled by marriage, that John could no longer be found, that she was neglected, that mood was low to dust, and that marriage was afraid of coming to an end.
A series of negative emotions rushed into me, tormenting Meg, and due to her self-esteem, Meg was reluctant to bow to John and confide in her needs.
When she was sad and had nowhere to vent, Meg sought her mother's help.
Mrs. March's words about the true meaning of marriage still echo in the ears today: "Too much closure will make you nervous, and it will turn out that nothing is appropriate." And, as with the children, you owe John. Don't neglect your husband because your child is outside, don't lock him outside the nursery, but teach him how to help. Like you, there is his place there and the kids need him. Let him feel that he has his part, and he will happily do his duty, so that it will be better for all of you. Don't put yourself in a cardboard box just because you're a woman, learn about current events, train yourself to participate in world affairs, because these are all related to your work. ”
What a wise mother, faced with the chicken feathers of married life, Mrs. March duly instructed Meg.
Following her mother's instructions, Meg cleaned up the little house, dressed herself up again, and let John participate in the management of the children, and sure enough, they quickly returned to their former happiness.
In addition to Mrs. March's teaching Meg the secrets of running a marriage, we also see the dedication of the free and independent Joe to the family.
She wanted to take the sick Beth on vacation in the hope that Beth's condition would improve, but against the original intention of writing, she wrote some novels that catered to the tastes of the audience, just to save enough money for the vacation and help the family.
In the last days of Beth's life, she stayed up more vigil to accompany her, and the grumpy Joe became docile and soft during that time, allowing Beth to go to heaven with a deeper family love.
Talk about our little Beth, this is the most pitiful person in the book, she loves life so much, for her family she happily does housework every day, hard work, intimately for everyone's sake.
She warmed everyone in the family and the suffering like the sun, and finally contracted scarlet fever because of her kindness to take care of the sick child. The sun was about to set, and Beth said, "I'm trying to be willing to leave." ”
Compared with the neighbors Lawrence's family, the March family is considered poor, but they decorate the home with amiable and lovely affection, so that the family has gained another kind of wealth, and deeply attracted the Laurie family.
Second, beauty lies in friendship
Ever since Laurie and the March family met, we can all feel the change in the Lawrence family deeply.
Laurie's grandfather had respect for Mr. March and a warm welcome to the family, who crossed the gap between rich and poor and gave each other warm love. Let's start with Laurie and Joe's friendship, we know that Joe loves to write, she put a lot of effort into writing, in the secret base she is addicted to the ocean of books, and began to imagine her future.
Remember when Joe started contributing, Laurie was the first person to share his joy with Joe.
Laurie admires Joe's talent and personality, and their friendship grows deeper and deeper. Once, however, their friendship was also shaken in the wind and rain.
Laurie wrote to Meg in Brooke's tone, teasing Meg. Joe, well versed in her sister's disposition, felt that Laurie had made an unforgivable mistake and was unforgivable. Laurie also paid a huge price for this incident, during which time he was embarrassed to step into the March family, and did not dare to look directly at the Meg family, especially when he occasionally saw Meg's thoughts, he knew how much this prank had affected Meg.
Even though he sincerely apologized, he still felt guilty, and because of this, we were fortunate to see the incomparably obedient Laurie for a while.
However, the whole family passed and forgave Laurie, but Joe did not, and she managed to tighten her face in the face of Laurie, expressing her deep hatred for him.
Laurie, who received all this, returned home without saying a word, and was also tortured by his grandfather's shoulders, and had a big quarrel with his grandfather, so he locked himself in the house.
At the same time, Joe is also reflecting on whether he thinks he has gone too far, and his sister has forgiven Laurie, and he is still clinging to it.
What he had just done hurt Laurie decided to let go of his self-esteem and seek peace. When he arrived at Lawrence's house, he found that Laurie had locked himself in the house, not eating or drinking.
After Using his ingenuity to break into the house, Joe knelt down on both knees and softly pleaded and apologized, gaining Laurie's forgiveness.
At the same time, after learning about Laurie and Grandpa's gunfire, Joe plans to resolve the contradiction between Grandpa and Grandpa, and in the end, Grandpa sincerely writes to Laurie to apologize.
Lawrence's grandfather and grandson went through Joe's mediation, and their feelings deepened.
Because of joe and Laurie's similar personalities, they were often together, and we thought they would always be together.
It is true that they are also together, just not because of love, but because of friendship.
Third, beauty is in love
When it comes to love, we have to go back to Laurie and Joe.
Laurie's prank actually became the catalyst for Brooke and Meg's love. We know brooke is Laurie's governess, handsome and school-rich, with the only drawback being that his family is poorer, but that doesn't stop Meg from running towards him.
You know, before meeting John, Meg's ideal was to marry a rich man and be a little woman with ten fingers and no spring water, but after meeting John, all her rules and regulations were broken.
As long as it is for John, the family chores of chai rice oil sauce vinegar tea have become the secret of Meg's happiness.
Seeing that Mr. and Mrs. John were so happy, Laurie's heart could not be stopped, she listened to Joe's words, and on the occasion of graduation, became an excellent graduate, making everyone proud. Joe, in particular, thought that by following Joe's instructions, he had become someone Joe would like, so she confessed to Joe, but Joe refused.
Devastated, Laurie travels to Europe to heal his wounds and then meets Amy.
Seeing the lazy, increasingly depressed Laurie, Amy saved Laurie in her own way, Laurie returned, only to suddenly find that his love for Joe gradually dissipated, and Amy around him attracted him, he couldn't help but approach Amy, of course, Amy has always liked Laurie.
In the end, of course, there are lovers who eventually become dependents.
Here many readers are indignant, thinking that Laurie is too scummy, can't figure out that Laurie will fall in love with Amy so quickly, I can't figure it out, but love is something that people can't answer.
But I don't think Joe's liking for Laurie has anything to do with love, because Joe's feelings for Professor Barr have not been revealed in Laurie, indicating that Professor Barr is Joe's true love! Although a little older, haha, but, happiness is enough...
In admonishing Laurie, Amy said, "Talent is not genius." No amount of energy can make talent a genius. I'm either a great man or nothing. I don't want to be that kind of mediocre and clumsy painter. Therefore, I am not going to try again. ”
These little women are more warm because they have a family, although in the end they have not become noble women, writers, painters, but they have become the masters of life, and they are also living in the way they like, and what is more wonderful is that their families, lovers, and friends are all around.
