作为简奥斯丁的大饭死,这样的片子不能不看。
打算看还没看的,先跳过我这篇吧,有泄漏剧情之嫌。。。
简一生未婚,这是早就知道的,不过看的时候还是为她和tom lefroy捏一把汗,怎么说呢,就是不希望傲慢与偏见的现实版是如此的冷酷。当然,我不认为tom lefroy就是达西的原型,事实上我觉得可能更象维克姆一点,都是有魅力的坏男人类型,穷孩子出身,在社会上爬,唯一区别恐怕是tom无奈的努力并也成功,而维克姆堕落又堕落,没有底线。即便如此,感觉简也还是喜欢维克姆的,所以在把他描述成坏人的同时并不那么招人讨厌。
事实上关于简和tom的关系的记载很少,简的姐姐把不少信件都销毁了,这部片基本虚构而且是简的小说的拼凑。。。许多台词文字熟悉的很,甚至连他们私奔那段也一样,基本就是维克姆和小妹妹的私奔--先去伦敦,再北上去苏格兰
看到简说自己的小说,好人总有好归宿,感觉很心酸。。
只是这样倔强的女子,怎么肯没有爱情而结婚?而两个没钱的人注定是只能理智的分开的(我不认为他们事实上私奔过,简一定是个理性的人,那个为了的大律师想必也如此,都是聪明人(不然简也不可能看得上),现实人,不可能会作出那样的举动) 那样的感情只能深埋在心,我想达西那样的人物一定是倾注了简的美好愿望的,一个有爱的有钱人………………
tom一定是个冷静的人,娶妻生子(还很多!),如果不是他的长女叫简,或许也看不出什么,不过,就算如此又如何呢?多么普通普遍的名字。。。。
而简,作为一个文学女青年,只能心酸和高傲的维护自己心里那个幸福堡垒。。。
还有,那个wisley虚构的吧,太戏剧化了点。。。连家都象(虽然只是象)chatsworth...
与剧情无关的:
美女anne对于演简来说过于漂亮和纤细了,根据简的画像,她并非明艳的美女(当然也不丑),有着符合那个年代的圆润感觉
她若更含蓄些会更符合简吧。。。
安娜的半调子英音有点汗,不过比那谁在安东瓦内特里面的美音强多了
拍摄非常的美丽,许多场景单独截图下来都是优秀的摄影作品
一片文章
50: Jane and Tom
Jane Austen essentially created the chick lit genre. We all know the formula—girl meets guy, girl falls in love with guy, guy breaks her heart, girl meets nicer, better-looking guy with more money and they live happily ever after. Obstacles abound in Austen’s stories—lack of money on the part of the otherwise lovely heroine, meddling family members who pull lovers apart because they disapprove the match—but these things are always overcome by the abundant worth of two good people who truly love each other.
The love stories in Austen’s own life echo these themes, but without the “happily ever after” ending.
Jane’s first love, at twenty, was Tom Lefroy. He was a law student from Ireland, the nephew of her dear friend Anne’s husband, and Anne may have introduced them. We know little about the relationship, really. Much of what we know of Jane’s life is from her letters, but her sister Cassandra burned many and mutilated more before passing them on to nieces and nephews late in her life. Perhaps Cassandra cut out the juiciest bits, or, as Austen expert Deirdre Le Faye suggests, the parts that could have offended one family member or other. Either way, there are gaps.
Jane and Tom spent some time together over the course of a few weeks, over Christmas and New Year's. He was fairly serious, quiet and very good—maybe a balance for Jane’s energetic humor. They bantered over Henry Fielding’s Tom Jones, and after a ball, Jane wrote jokingly to Cassandra of “everything most profligate and shocking in the way of dancing and sitting down together.” She writes about how Tom is given a hard time in the Lefroy household for the attachment, so that when she pays a visit he manages to hide. But he would pay her another visit, as was the custom, to thank her for partnering him at the ball, and the only fault she could really find with him was that his morning coat was “a great deal too light.”
There is much debate these days about just how in love Jane was with Tom, and how much this relationship influenced her writing. Some say it was just a flirtation—clearly, in Jane’s letters, she is being sarcastic, they say. To me she writes like there is some depth to her feelings, in spite of trying to laugh them off. “I rather expect to receive an offer from my friend in the course of the evening,” she writes of their last meeting. “I shall refuse him, however, unless he promises to give away his white coat.” She sounds a little bit like my friends and I as well, telling stories of a romance that fell into the middle of a life that was largely without romantic interest, making much of a little thing. Yet, it’s easy to imagine her being teasing and sharp with Tom.
Tom was from a good family but not wealthy. His father had been in the army. He was the oldest son, but it was a large family, eleven children with five daughters ahead of him, and he was made to feel that the future of the family was on his shoulders. He was expected to do well, to do much. Though the attachment seems to have been mutual, Anne and her husband stepped in and quickly sent Tom home. The family history is that Anne Lefroy was forever frustrated with Tom over this, his leading Jane on when he knew there was no chance he could propose.
Tom eventually married someone with an appropriately large fortune, had seven children, and went on to become Lord Chief Justice of Ireland. He was no Darcy—not heir to great estates or wealth—but clearly his family had expectations Jane did not meet. If Jane wrote about family interference, she learned it firsthand. Tom may have adored her and she him but she hadn’t enough money to qualify. Most likely Jane never saw him again.
When it ended, Jane wrote to Cassandra: “At length the day is come on which I am to flirt my last with Tom Lefroy, & when you receive this it will be over—My tears flow as I write, at the melancholy idea.” She was joking, of course. How deeply she felt the joke we will never really know. But her heart had been engaged for likely the first time.
No doubt this relationship and her repartee with Tom fueled her writing. Whether it was "her greatest inspiration" as the trailers for Becoming Jane claim, well, that's debatable. But I'm sure it provided as spark.
