  The film “The Scarlet Letter” tells a story of a brave woman. We call her “Hide”. She had married, but her husband was older than her and she didn't love him. One day, she came to a town of the USA and met a young priest. The priest's sermons lecture touched her heart deeply. And that, Hide's charm also moved the priest, they were fallen in love. Hide was pregnant. For this reason, she was accused of “adultery” and forced to wear clothes with “The Scarlet Letter”. But she was brave and unrepentant. She borne the baby, and lived hardened. With the help of the Indians, she got the happiness finally.

   Hide is touched my heart deeply. The woman is so brave and loyalty. She always conviction the love of the priest and full of virtue, even under the harsh realities. The letter “A” stands for shame first, but Hide makes it stand for “able”、“angle” by her brave. She strives for true love. She is a soldier who struggling with the feudal tradition!

  In the end of this film, the “Scarlet Letter” was throwing away. it is stand for the beginning of Hide's new happy live.

   May be in her heart, the “Scarlet Letter” was stand for "Amour"...

本来冲着“红字”的标题、Gary Oldman还有海报去看的片子。。。

没想到看得不知所云！！！

136分钟的片子，看完了发现，两个多小时再也回不来了！！！

把原著改得乱七八糟，人物简直是顶着原著名号的冒充者罢了。。。

以Demi Moore的声音怎么适合演女主？？？

说着说着就像缠带卡壳了，让人听着浑身难受！！！

而且，原著中女主那隐忍、逆顺的外表哪去了？？？

被Demi演成了一个拓荒欲望极强的女权主义者！！！

更夸张的是：Demi在片子里面强壮地像个汉子！！！

有没有搞错？？？

Gary Oldman也把原著中闷骚的男主演成了明骚的愤青！！！

还有Gary湖中洗澡露PPJJ的场景太扯淡了点吧？？？

男主一个美洲殖民地拓荒期的牧师，遮还来不及，怎么可能经常跑去人家后院裸泳呢？？？

再说红鸟勾引女主、女奴偷窥女主洗澡、长发男试图强奸女主、长发男被女主老公暗杀、女主老公自杀的桥段，乱七八糟哪里来的啊？？？

这不是美剧好不好！！！

至于Pearl，和个道具差不多。。。

完全没有原著中小女孩的灵气和妖质！！！

还有片子的画外音，一直听得我蛋疼！！！

亏了我是个男生，可以很精确运用“蛋疼”这个词来形容自己当时的感受。。。

总之，不靠谱啊不靠谱！！！！！！！

这部由霍桑的小说改编的电影 让我第一次觉得原来电影也可以比原著好看
小说中亚瑟牧师是个懦弱的男人 不能保护自己所爱 最后死在了普林的怀中 一个悲剧收场 留下的是这样的遗憾与无奈 但是在电影中 加里奥德曼的亚瑟牧师却是一个坚贞勇敢热情无畏的男人 赋予了亚瑟又一种生命 虽然他也胆小害羞 虽然他也被封建礼教束缚 可是当自己的女人站在绞刑架上的时候 他站了出来 对人群对世俗对上帝高喊:我是孩子的父亲 在上帝眼中 我是她的丈夫 那一刻我也激动的想大喊 怎样的勇敢让他可以在背负这么多沉重之后终于面对这一切 终于喊出了几年来无法承担的责任 其实男人是要比女人苦的 女人虽然被世俗唾弃 但她是坦荡的 是高尚的 她无所畏惧 但是男人呢?无法触碰自己心爱的女人 无法拥抱刚出生的孩子 在人前仍旧做他高尚的牧师 讲他的经布他的道 谁也无法了解他内心隐忍的苦痛 而这一刻 他终于能站起来 终于能摆脱束缚 终于能拥抱爱人和孩子了 但是他却不再拥有上帝的微笑 同样面临被绞死的命运 这时候的印第安人来袭而造成的大团员结局是我觉得最无法接受的 生硬的可以 但还是希望给我一个这样的大团员结局 大概最近悲剧看多了 或者也没有那么生硬了 大家知道亚瑟有印第安人罩着 还敢把他怎样?
影片的场景服装都很好 颜色也漂亮 我截了几张图 发现任何一张拿出来都可以画一张古典主义的油画了 记得最深的就是普林偷看亚瑟洗澡那场戏 她本来是束着头发的 看到亚瑟之前放了下来 还戴上了一顶花环 让我想起夏娃和伊甸园来了 传说这一段加里有露点 但是操蛋的是我居然买了删节版...

    All the encounters are reunions after a long separation in the world. I guess, Hester and Arthur must have seen much affliction before they meet each other. Their love sprouts like the seed of evil, and bursts into bloom.
     Red roses in prison, which offer the fragrance and fragile beauty to the dying prisoners, have already predicted a vivid metaphor at the beginning. Love is beautiful, like rose; yet love is cold and painful, like its thorn.
    I don’t understand the treatise on Good and Evil in transcendentalism of Emerson, I don’t understand the concept of salvation in the Bible, more don’t understand the puritan tradition in the United States. The scarlet letter, for me, is not only a piece of love history, but also a confession related to the original sin. With the fall of Adam and Eve, human beings are originally sinful. The Bible tells us love covers over all wrongs. Moreover, the innocent is not the one to blame. A kind-hearted and honest couple, once trapped in the puzzle of extramarital affair, they are destined to walk into a dilemma——since the flame of love and the perfection of morality mostly can’t live together. As in Paradise Lost, the hero and heroine choose to suicide in their blissful love.
    There are no ugly loves, nor handsome prisons. For Arthur, Hester is undoubtedly beauteous in looks, and seductive in personality. For Hester, when Arthur says I love you affectionately to her, she can feel the love that he bears patiently in this man’s eyes and hands, even silence. In their seven years, determination, hypocrisy, and self-deception are all human nature; in their whole life, long waiting, sense of guilt, and endurance for the contempt are all atonement. In my eyes, Hester veritably has the right to say love although her purity and courage deviate from morality and ethics. Love is colder than death——their love is holy but miserable, like the sacrificial offerings on the altar.
    The bible says that love can bear all things, hope all things, and endure all things. Miss Hester keeps silence for their forbidden love for seven years, while Mr. Arthur pays for this piece of virtueless love at the cost of his life. Who dares to say that the affection between Hester and Arthur is not true love? Common customs tear their bodies apart, but their souls will stay together forever. They feel each other in their stomachs, and they enjoy the ecstasy of sex. Who dares to say that sex doesn’t mean love? There is no doubt that Pearl is the crystal of their love.
    Love is a kind of curse, and love is a lonely carnival. The Scarlet Letter not merely tells the process of romantic love, it tells the ending of love——more accurately the consequence of love that knocks on everyone’s soul. When Arthur falls down on the scaffold due to the heavy burden in mind, when Hester’s ashes are buried beside Arthur after many years, have they ever regretted for the things they had done, including love and the confession of love? Love is colder than death——Hester and Arthur break the curse——chains of morality, and the sublimation of their love burns all the people’s eyes.
    With a bloody letter A on his naked chest, Arthur died in Hester’s arms——he is finally released. However, his deep love for Hester will never disappear. The moment when Arthur eventually stands in front of the multitude and shouts loudly I LOVE THIS WOMAN, we witness a scene of extraordinary love, and the shameful letter A is endowed with new meaning.
    Every character in the book is adorned with a letter A. Hester and Arthur are the undertakers of A. Those righteous people in New England who propose to punish Hester with A——they are the makers of A. And those crowds of onlookers are witnesses of A. Hester’s husband is a dirty dog——he is the enquirer of A. Little Pearl is compared to the fruit of sin, and she is the savior of A. I think the scarlet letter A can be considered as Adultery, Able, Admirable, Amour, Angel, Advance, and even America.
    In the end, Hawthorne writes, On a field, sable, the letter A, gules. I seem to see a woman kneel on the wasteland, in front of her there is a tomb. The woman is so devout that she looks like a statue of a nun. She firmly believes that there will be a new era some day, a bright and heavenly era.
    Love is colder than death. Hester and Arthur, have already lost their names, bodies and souls.
    Now, maybe I should go to read Moby Dick by Melville. That’s for Hawthorne.

齐声之言并非真理

专制之行并非神意

一切都是人类自加的画地为牢行为，一种人类不健全的抱团心里。但这些都是纸老虎，若有一天当被排挤在外的人以一种势不可挡的坚定来进行反抗时，纸老虎们也就化为一地残屑。原著中写：……然而在这一片灰黑之中，却傲然挺立着一丛玫瑰……豁然深悟老子千年前之语：邻国相望,鸡犬之声相闻，民至老死不相往来。这是多大的悯生之情，多大的宽恤与自由。
