Classics never go out of style.
It is fitting to describe "Pride and Prejudice" in this way.
This film, even if it has been rewatched many times, will still be moved by the lines every time.
Taking advantage of the fact that today is Women's Day, let's talk about -
Why is it called a must-see classic movie for women?
1. Poor couples mourn
[A marriage that only thinks about money is ridiculous, and a marriage that doesn't think about money is stupid. 】
The Bennett family's youngest daughter, Lydia, belongs to the latter.
Lydia loves vanity, frivolity, and elopes with Wakeham because of her beauty and lust, not caring about his financial situation or the material basis of their future.
Elopement is cool for a while, and it is difficult to have no money.
Lydia pursues excitement, and after eloping with Wakehan, she ends up marrying him. After marriage, the two had no fixed place to live, struggled to survive, and often relied on the help of their sister to make ends meet.
Lydia Wakehan's love, in her life of relying on human welfare, was consumed by firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea.
The marriage of Aichi led to the deterioration of the relationship between the two.
Wakeham goes to have fun, and Lydia hides at her sister's house for solace.
[Poor couples mourn] is regardless of country.
Only for a momentary passion, do not consider how to live after marriage, in the end only themselves are wronged.
2. Choosing marriage first and then love for money is risky
[A wonderful woman is not a vassal who can only survive by marriage and love. This is what people who have seen the film want to say to Charlotte, the best friend of the Bennet's second daughter.
Charlotte, 27, is said to be an older leftover girl.
Charlotte, who has no money and no good looks, in order not to die alone, has a home, and the rest of her life without worries, finally chose the stupid and old Collins. In Charlotte's heart, ordinary people have no money, and marrying is the only way she can live a decent life. Even if there is no love nourishment after marriage, Charlotte doesn't care, she just wants a dependency.
The role of Charlotte, to some extent, reflects the inferiority consciousness of some women who believe that they can only rely on men.
Maybe friends who have read novels that love love first want to say that feelings can be cultivated. Yes, feelings can be cultivated, but it depends on whether the other half is willing to cultivate them.
Collins chose to marry Charlotte, which was a second choice.
Collins wanted to marry Jane, the Bennet's eldest daughter, and Mrs. Bennet said she was married to Mr. Bingley.
Collins, who was rejected, set his sights on Elizabeth. But because of her arrogant marriage proposal, Elizabeth refused.
Collins, who has been rejected again and again, is not pursuing love, but a person who can marry him, and as for who this person is, he does not care.
The character of Collins is like being urged to marry around us, and finally defeated by the remarks of "should be married at marriageable age", and married for the sake of marriage. Therefore, the marriage of Collins and Charlotte is just to take what they need, and the probability of marriage first and then love is extremely low.
3. Ideological "door-to-door" is very important
Elizabeth, the second daughter of the Bennet family, loves to read and is independent-minded. and the male protagonist Darcy have a deep understanding and feel that they are spiritually at the same frequency as each other, because love has come together.
Of course, the premise of love between the two also has factors of economic foundation and appearance, but the key to determining whether the two hold hands and whether they can love and be beautiful after marriage is the "door-to-door" of the two at the ideological level.
In the voice of the [old girl] in the outside world, Elizabeth was unmoved, she firmly believed in her heart that "I just decide, what I do will make me happy, I will do it, you have no right to interfere, outsiders have no right to interfere. 】
For the remark that you should get married when you are old, she is not humble and said [marriage is not a necessity of life, and a marriage based on love is certainly beautiful, but if marriage is not for love, it is better to live alone. 】
This is also why Elizabeth is loved by the audience -
Strong inner tenacity and strength
Don't go with the flow and stick to being yourself
"Pride and Prejudice" tells the audience what kind of love is worth moving forward through the love and marriage views of the Bennett family's daughters, and also tells the audience to look at things in multiple dimensions, rather than just wearing colored glasses to see people and things.
This classic film of Douban 9.3 (1995 version) and 8.7 (2005 version) is worth watching for all women.
