How to evaluate the film Pride and Prejudice?

With the 1995 BBC TV drama version, the faithfulness to the original works comes first, and the 25 British film version tries to jump out of the mindset, and the adaptation is biased towards the tastes of young audiences, which has achieved good results. Not to mention that after the film was released, it won more than 1 million dollars at the box office around the world, which had an important impact on me personally: I had a Chinese translation of the original at home, and I picked it up and turned over a few pages. At that time, I couldn't understand the interest, so I put it down; Until I saw the film version, I deeply liked the film and the story, so I picked up the translation and read it again. Later, I watched the English version and even left it in iBooks, knowing that I would definitely appreciate it again in the future. Sure enough, in the last two weeks, I couldn't resist its charm. I not only reread it, but also read it intensively, and I also found film and television works to watch. I have done a lot of work and gained a lot of fun.

So, for those who haven't read the original, I recommend watching this film, which is definitely a kind of enjoyment, and maybe they will be interested in reading the original. Sometimes, finding a beautiful thing really needs an opportunity.

So, for those who have read the original, or even those who like it very much, is this film not worth watching because of its adaptation? No, for one thing, the adaptation of this film is mostly based on reasonable imagination, and for another, this film really has high viewing pleasure. Let's talk about adaptation first. The film borrows a lot of original words from the original work, and also makes some blending and originality. In some books, the characters did not appear in the film at all, or some minor roles were deleted in some scenes; These are all to make the plot more compact, so that the whole story, especially the four marriages, can be accommodated in two hours. In addition, some scenes were added to make the life of that era more stereoscopic and lively; This liveliness is not only in line with the heroine Elizabeth's character, but also closer to the understanding of contemporary people. Most importantly, these adaptations have not broken through the original framework of the story. Unlike the 4th Hollywood film, even the character settings have changed. These adaptations should not be compared with the 95 TV series. After all, the film doesn't have much time to unfold the plot, but trimming the details will make the tree more upright.

let's talk about viewing pleasure. This film presents the rich and varied landscape of Britain, and the shooting angle and effect are comparable to those of tourist scenery films; Be more cheerful about the big scene of the dance; The design of figure costumes and interior decoration is very careful. The high-waisted skirts in the early 19th century are not adopted in the costumes, which really do not conform to the contemporary aesthetics, so the waistline that can better highlight the figure of the figure is adopted, and the decoration conforms to the economic strength and life taste of all walks of life. The film has a good grasp of light, shadow and color, which can reflect the psychology of the characters at that time and make the natural scenery beautiful and moving. The soundtrack of this film is both classical silence and folk joy, and there must be an soundtrack worthy of collection; The portrayal of the characters' expressions and actions in the film is meticulous, which avoids the dull feeling brought by possible solemnity and has higher credibility; A large number of extras are called in the film, but everyone's clothes, expressions, lines and actions are in place, even if they are not in the focus and center of the camera, the degree of care can be seen; Several classic shots in the film are unforgettable and memorable.

finally, talk about the most controversial casting. Elizabeth, played by the beautiful Keira Knightley, is more lively in character than the original, and her laughter often bursts out. Although she is criticized by some viewers as smirking, you should know that in the original, Elizabeth compares her sister with herself, that is, she smiles, I laugh. In clothing, the color is dark brown, and it is informal. Only at the Netherfield ball, she wore a long white dress and surprised the audience. The beauty of Keira is different from the beauty of the actress who plays her sister. The former is a dynamic beauty, and the latter is a classical beauty, which is also in line with the original setting. Generally speaking, it is a good attempt for Keira to perform a lively version of Elizabeth. Darcy also took a different style from the 95 version in this film. The 95 version of Darcy has become the standard in the eyes of many audiences, and he has achieved the ultimate in arrogance and almost never laughed. This version of Darcy is less arrogant and cold, and more sad and soft. For the audience who have seen the 95 th version, some people feel like returning from heaven to earth. I can't say that this is a very decent change, but what is certain is that it is meaningless to reproduce a 95 version of Darcy. In order to be close to the young audience, Mr. Bingley was adapted to be a little silly and couldn't even speak well. Of course, the original did say he was silly in a scene, but this change was really too big. Mrs. Bennett's performance is very moderate, and she always feels like stealing the play in the 95 th edition. Mr. Bennett is the most undisputed and recognized good character in my opinion. He performed the charm of his father in the original work, made fun of his wife and three little daughters, communicated spiritually with Elizabeth and showed his preference for her just right.

Throughout the film, the slow rhythm is permeated with a strong literary atmosphere, which embodies the typical characteristics of art cinema, England. Just like the cheerful and mischievous freshness of French films, the history and thinking of German films are heavy, and the literature and art composed of nature, manor, classical costumes and British accent has become the symbol of British films. Good literature and good movies can move people's hearts, and even people can't help but want to go back to that era in the works and become a certain figure in the works. This is their charm of * * *.

Appreciation of the British film Pride and Prejudice in p>25

After the Logo of two production companies were shown, the feature film started quickly, so as not to keep the audience waiting.

in the dark, the chirping birds first sounded. The picture lights up, and it is a meadow and a small forest on its edge. There is no sun, and it is a little gloomy. The camera stood still, and slowly, the sun came out from above the grove. The notes of the piano began to flow.

When the sun gradually covered the whole picture, the camera turned and our beautiful heroine Elizabeth appeared. Some chaotic bangs are particularly natural, which is also her consistent symbol. She read while walking in the morning light, using her printed handkerchief as a bookmark. When you see the understanding, you unconsciously put your left thumb on your lips and gently smile, which is almost inaudible. I have seen THE END of the book. I must have got up early to study in nature. When I see the end, I will go back and continue reading. After reading it, gently touch the back cover, reluctant to go. How happy I am to be able to read in such an environment! One episode is that this book is the first draft of Pride and Prejudice, and First Impressions. The film is a tribute to Jane Austen.

The next shot has more vitality. Ducks quack in the pond, and cattle Cleisthenes on the shore. Elizabeth, wearing a simple dark brown dress with long hair tied behind her head, walked from the left side of the picture to the courtyard where clothes were drying on the right side. The gentle jump when she landed showed her lightness. The next shot has more vitality. Ducks quack in the pond, and cattle Cleisthenes on the shore. Elizabeth, wearing a simple dark brown dress with long hair tied behind her head, walked from the left side of the picture to the courtyard where clothes were drying on the right side. The gentle jump when she landed showed her lightness.

The fourth shot is a classic long shot lasting 1 minute and 27 seconds. The audience followed Elizabeth, visited her home and met her family. First of all, the servant has got up early to feed the poultry. Then, instead of following Elizabeth rigidly, the camera broke through the door and entered the house. Mary is playing the piano (the piano music originally came from her, and she plays it really well! ), there should be portraits of masters of all generations hanging on the wall. Jane crosses the room and gently scolds Lydia and Katie who are laughing and running down the stairs; Dogs bark; The furniture is simple, and there is a needlework on the table. The camera came out from another door and picked Elizabeth up. From her perspective, she saw and heard her parents talking and her two sisters were eavesdropping. This long shot shows the skill and ideas of jo white who directed the film for the first time, which laid the foundation for him to shoot the classic long shot that entered the textbook in Atonement two years later.

At the beginning of the film, we are shown such a beautiful and peaceful morning in the English countryside with soothing shots and music.

The dialogue that opens in the book then appears. This film jumps out of the old TV series, and does not directly describe the conversation between Bennett and his wife, but presents it through the eavesdropping of their daughters. First, it is in line with the time set in the early morning, when the family has not sat down together. Second, it shows each person's personality, Lydia and Katie's freewheeling, Jane and Elizabeth's good upbringing and discipline of their sisters, and Mary's indifference. Third, it is also very lively in family life, because it is impossible for a family to always be polite and serious when talking together, and the film does not ignore a polite detail. When Mr. Bennett leaves the room, the daughters curtsy to him. The potted plants in Mr. Bennett's hand and the apples in Mrs. Bennett's hand are full of life. When Mr. Bennett teased Mrs. Bennett, the daughters reacted naturally and obviously, which was very different from the modesty of previous works. The position of the character is obviously carefully designed to achieve a "depth of field" effect.

The next scene is the dance, which has always been the focus of film and television works. The dance in this film is particularly cheerful and the conversation is very lively. Elizabeth loves to laugh, not a lady's smile, but can be described as burst into laughter. As can be seen from the dialogue, this film has no intention of presenting the original 1:1-in fact, as a two-hour movie, it is not allowed to do so-but organically combines the dialogues scattered in various chapters of the original into one scene. At the same time, there are some original dialogues that conform to the characters' personalities. The next scene is the dance, which has always been the focus of film and television works.

The film really controls the details. When Bingley and Jane were dancing, they stared at the first beauty of Bennett family so intently that they almost forgot the dance steps.

When Darcy talked with Bingley, Elizabeth was very excited and curious when they mentioned herself. Then, when she heard Darcy's arrogant words, she was also very shocked, which was very in line with the psychology of an intelligent and self-respecting girl. Keira Knightley showed Elizabeth's emotional changes perfectly.

At the end of the dance, Jane and Elizabeth lit a lamp under the covers and talked all night. This is a reasonable imagination of the film's creators and an innovation.

After arriving, Darcy's reaction was very special, and here Darcy has already taken a fancy to her. Elizabeth's long hair is scattered, which is another natural and healthy beauty.

Bingley is incoherent in front of Jane, so it is no wonder that this film will be loved by a large number of young audiences. Bingley is incoherent in front of Jane, so it is no wonder that this film will be loved by a large number of young audiences.
