The story of Great Expectations runs through the theme of love: Pip's unswerving love for Estella, Pip's brotherly love for Hobor, and Magwitch's love for Pip's hideous deformity; What moved us most was Joe's selfless and pure love. Dickens described the relationship between Pip and Joe in the most cordial manner.

In Joe's honest and somewhat blunt personality, Dickens' feelings for the kind little people at the bottom of society poured into him. Pip changed from a young orphan to Joe's apprentice. When he was young, he experienced many ups and downs in his living environment. Because of vanity, he was once lost and finally repented. On his growth path, Joe's sincere concern for him is everywhere. He always said to Pip, "We will always be best friends".

Later events confirmed Joe's promise. When Pip went to London for a "gentleman" education, Joe felt a little uneasy about Pip's life in London. His deep concern for Pip is beyond words. He said to Pip, "You and I can't sit together in London ... until we get home, we will become our own people and get to know each other."

This shows that Joe doesn't approve of Pip going to London as a gentleman. Later, when Pip's hope of inheriting the inheritance was completely shattered and he fell ill, it was Joe again, who not only gave Pip great spiritual support, but also quietly helped Pip pay off his debts. This kind of love makes Pip gradually return to conscience in the constant inner struggle between right and wrong.

But the crew can't afford to shoot in Cairo, and Cairo at 20 1 1 is also very chaotic and dangerous. Later, the crew planned to go to Malta and Morocco because the funding problem did not come true.
