The movie I'm recommending today is Little Women, which was first aimed at Emma Watson, but was later amazed by Silsa Ronan.
The running at the beginning is so beautiful
The film Little Women is based on the 1868 novel by Louisa May Olcott. This is probably one of the most popular novels adapted into movies outside of Shakespeare.
The story is about the four daughters of the March family who lived in Boston during the American Civil War, in the small town of Concord on the western outskirts of Don: the beautiful Meg, the strong Joe, the gentle Beth, and the wayward Amy. The four sisters were noisy all day, but they had deep feelings.
March went to war, and the four daughters lived with their mother, Mrs. March, and the maid Hannah, living a poor but happy life.
The Neighbors of the March family are the rich Lawrence family, and the kind Mr. Lawrence has given the March family a lot of help.
In the male-dominated era of the time, "marriage was the ultimate destination for women".
Therefore, the education of girls is always about what kind of man to choose as a spouse, and what kind of woman they should cultivate themselves into.
But these four young women are determined to live their lives according to their own ideas.
The eldest sister, Meg, longs for a peaceful life. She felt that their love was the most important thing in marriage, so she married John Brooke, the poor governess of the Lawrence family, despite her family's objections.
The heroine Joe hopes to be as independent as a man, her understanding of marriage is more important than the feeling of being loved, but she does not want to rely on her rich husband to raise, so she rejects Laurie's marriage proposal despite her relationship with Lawrence's grandson Laurie.
Joe loves to write, and she creates a novel based on the lives of herself and her sisters.
After the rich aunt died, she left the house to Joe, who planned to turn it into a school and asked the German professor to teach with him.
The third sister Beth loves to play the piano. The neighbor, Mr. Lawrence, appreciated her helpfulness and gave her a piano.
But Beth contracted scarlet fever from helping a baby from a poor family, resulting in a frail and premature death.
The little sister Amy pursues elegance and loves vanity, and her aunt thinks that she may be the only "normal person" in the family. She loves to draw and has some artistic talent.
Amy later went to Nice, France, to study fine arts, where she almost married the wealthy Fredreich, but in the end she felt that she did not really love him and chose to marry Laurie.
The film goes from the happy times of the characters' youth, gradually growing up and changing compromises, to finally returning to the truest voice of their hearts, giving the work different era meanings.
The film truly depicts the contradictions and dilemmas faced by everyone in the pursuit of their dreams, and then finally returns to the family, discovers the essence of love from their imperfect lives, and finds their own belonging and place.
The plot is not limited to the marriage of women, but also focuses on personal growth, they are independent and have their own passions: writing, painting, music, acting.
You can marry the poor man you love, you can turn down the rich man you don't love, or you can choose to be single and love freedom. Marriage is not a necessity for everyone's life, and some people just love freedom. Respect the diversity of human choice.
