the movie told a classic old story based on Mark Twain's novel a Million Pound Note.
Money is a symbol of everything in that age and a million-pound check is a symbol of that symbol. A bill can cause a lot of trouble and make a plenty of influence on a city even in the whore country. It's snobbery. At that time, people were blinded by power and money, and lost their faith and sense of honor.
And this film is satirizing that era of money first.
如果你突然收到一笔天降横财,你是会欢呼雀跃,还是会觉得拿着一个烫手山芋,惶惶不可终日?
在书中,将亨利收到票据后的心理活动描写的非常细腻,从震惊到害怕,既不敢弄丢,也不敢直接拿到店里消费,更不敢拿到银行去换。因为虽然两兄弟给他的信中说是借给他一个月,但期限到后还是要归还。他不敢消费,一是金额太大,大多数店面找不开,二是大概怕到时自己不能如数奉还;他也不敢去银行换成现金,因为整个国家都知道这样的百万英磅票据只发行了两张,一张已使用被注销,另一张则是他手中这张
Although the film is funny, it makes me realize that the truth is very profound. In the film, his clothes were very old, people in the restaurant looked down on him, and rudely asked him for money after dinner. When Adam showed up one million pounds,the people immediately admire to him. Their hearts are the dirtiest.
In fact, a person's heart is much more important than his money.
