EPS 15-6 Again, I am impressed with the screen adaptation and the director of this drama. An excellent screen adaptation of the novel to include more interactions among the male leads. I love that they are more central to the story and being shown at the same time so the audience can see how they treat her and how she reacts to their perspectives.
Jane Austen's vibe is obvious and consistent as the actors curtsy to each other and politely nod their heads. The director is able to get the actors to perform their roles perfectly. It's funny but not to the point of being ridiculous. The humor has a tasteful vibe. When the grandma's dramatic role is not being overplayed as in eps 1-4, she also has the vibe of JA's old dames.
I also love that ZLS can bring out the little girl vibe. Although she is young (but not that young), she brought out the innocence of a 14-year-old at times and makes you feel like yeh, I could believe in her silliness, idealism, and audacity. I think her real voice and acting make the role so believable even though she doesn't look 14 years old.

I really think that allowing the FL to speak in her own voice makes these scenes more impactful and entertaining. The professional voice is too perfect and fake.

I didn't know how they will make this book work. But so far, with the exception of the first 4 eps being too much bickering of the same theme, I enjoyed the recent episodes A LOT.
Anyone know when CSS mother realize she being too hard on her?
It's an ongoing relationship. When she sees that CSS is being valued by others, she will realize the treasure she has. CSS herself will go through a transformation of being loved by two other mother figures: her aunt and the empress.
Episodes 7-8 didn't disappoint. Again, the script deviated from the novel, but it's all positive. VERY entertaining.…
I like the face-to-face meetings of the leads here. It gives the ML more screen time than in the novel. It's a well-used scenario, but fun to watch nonetheless.
Episodes 7-8 didn't disappoint. Again, the script deviated from the novel, but it's all positive. VERY entertaining. I thought the cinematography and storyline had a Disneyesque quality: the filming of LBY with the black cape (a repetition from previous scenes) from low to the high angle from the back makes him look like a Disney character: intimidating, intriguing, and foreshadowing. The real voice of FL added to the fun and childish scenes. I feel she made it very believable and entertaining to watch. TBH, I enjoy watching this drama more than reading the book. Although I laughed sometimes while reading, the drama brought out more of the comic element by providing not just the regular rom-com but also sophisticated irony, contrast, etc ... The director gave it a vibe of Disney's Cinderella and "Sense and Sensibility".
I'm so happy that the drama is picking up the pace now and the story is getting much better ,,, but I have to…
He is supposed to be "inhuman" according to the book. I hope that he will soften up because he's supposed to after he got engaged ... with her, he's supposed to be soften.
The cinematography at the Lantern Festival top notch. I enjoyed the introduction of our other male leads as well.…
I like how he uses angles and far-away shots before closing up... like at the beginning of ep5 ... really good cinematography. The way he does it builds up tension.
