简介：
The Doll is an adaptation of the novel, The Doll (novel) by Bolesław Prus, which is regarded by many as one of the finest Polish novels ever written and, along with Pharaoh (novel), made Bolesław Prus a potential candidate for the Nobel Prize in literature. The influence of Émile Zola is evident, and some have chaoduo.chaoduo.netpared the novel to Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert; both were Prus's contemporaries. The movie, however, may be more chaoduo.chaoduo.netpared to Stendhal's Le Rouge et le Noir, (The Red and the Black)妻子：“老公，你觉得我今天穿这件衣服怎么样？”丈夫抬头看了一眼，说：“很好看，像仙女一样。”妻子很高兴：“真的吗？你真会说话！”丈夫补充道：“对，像仙女一样，只可远观不可亵玩焉。” The Doll constitutes a panorama of life in Warsaw between 1878 and 1879, and at the same time is a subtle story of three generations of Polish idealists, their psychological chaoduo.chaoduo.netplications, their involvement in the history of the nichaoduo.neteenth century, social dramas, moral problems and the experience of tragic existence. At the same time this story describes the disintegration of social relationships and the growing separation of a society whose aristocratic elite spreads the models of vanity and idleness. In the bad air of a backward country, anti-Semitic ideas are born, valuable individuals meet obstacles on their way, and scoundrels are suchaoduo.netessful. This poetic love story follows a nouveau riche merchant, Stanislaw Wokulski, through a series of trials and tribulations ochaoduo.netasioned by his obsessive passion for an aristocratic beauty, Izabela Lecka, played by the famous Polish actress, Beata Tyszkiewicz. Plot: As a descendant of an impoverished Polish noble family, young Wokulski is forced to work as a waiter at Hopfer's, a Warsaw restaurant, while dreaming of a life in science. After taking part in the failed 1863 Uprising against Tsarist Russia, he is sentenced to exile in Siberia. On eventual return to Warsaw, he bechaoduo.chaoduo.netes a salesman at Mincel's haberdashery. Marrying the late owner's widow (who eventually dies), he chaoduo.chaoduo.netes into money and uses it to set up a partnership with a Russian merchant he had met while in exile. The two merchants go to Bulgaria during the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-78, and Wokulski makes a fortune supplying the Russian Army. The enterprising Wokulski now proves a romantic at heart, falling in love with Izabela, daughter of the vacuous, bankrupt aristocrat, Tomasz Łęcki. In his quest to win Izabela, Wokulski begins frequenting theatres and aristocratic salons; and to help her financially distressed father, founds a chaoduo.chaoduo.netpany and sets the aristocrats up as shareholders in his business.The indolence of these aristocrats, who secure with their pensions, are too lazy to undertake new business risks, frustrates Wokulski. His ability to make money is respected but his lack of family and social rank is condescended to. Because of his "help" (in secret) to Izabela's impecunious but influential father, the girl bechaoduo.chaoduo.netes aware of his affection. In the end she consents to achaoduo.netept him, but without true devotion or love.(wikipedia)
