      "Quotes"

      "Fear creates fear. I am not ignorant of the danger. But I will not punish my people for their beliefs. Only for their deeds. I am assured that the people of England love their Queen. My constant endeavor is to earn that love. "


      I have given England my life. Must she also have my soul?"


      "The closer I come to death, The more I want to live, the hungrier I am for life."


      "When the storm breaks, each man acts in according to his own nature. Some are dumb...

      she is rose

      She is noble and strong, like a glamorous rose. She does not succumb to anyone, but her tough exterior is extremely soft inside. She longs for love, longing to be happy like an ordinary young girl, simple to love and be loved, but in fact, she can only stand on a high place and look at the love of others. She told herself she was going to stay strong because she was married to England and her duty was to give everything for her country, and that didn't include finding love. Facing the...

      The golden light of the golden age

      I watched the first "Elizabeth" first, and I really liked Cate. No matter his temperament or acting skills, he always attracted me deeply. Personally, I felt that the first one was pretty good, but when it came to "Golden Age", it was a little sloppy, especially at the end. Parts, the radiant shots of Cate holding the baby behind her always strike me as a little far-fetched. It seems that Huihong has gone too far. Of course, it is also a good feeling to appreciate the decoration, costumes and...

      It's Britain's golden age, but not hers

      I still remember watching the previous "Elizabeth". Cate Blanchett is still young. The plot has been blurred, but the dance is very impressive.

          In the thin English sunshine, outside the gloomy castle, wearing a blue dress, she was led by the man to dance. She was not a queen at that time, just a young girl who was imprisoned and threatened with death from time to time.

          In "The Golden Age", she watched her waitress dance with the pirates who returned from their...

      The queen said, I am myself

      In this world, some people always think very highly of themselves, feel that they are superior to others, and make a show everywhere. In fact, they are just low self-esteem or vanity. And some people, with noble status, are burdened by their status, and only want to be a mortal who worries about small details every day, and get rid of the shackles of boring status.
      We should learn from the queen, despite the struggle and pain, she said, I am myself. I understand that as long as what you do...

      20130604 The costumes and scenes are much more advanced, but the plot is much weaker. Although the story of the original cast is very inspiring, compared to the first one, this one seems very empty, and the queen's plans have not shown much. All the passages of the king of Spain can be deleted! Abbie Cornish is beautiful; how does Eddie Redmayne have him in every Elizabeth...

      The film won the 80th Academy Award for Best Costume Design and was nominated for Best Actress. Although there are a series of problems in the film, such as the characterization of characters, the simplification of the storyline, and the unclear primary and secondary. However, I don't know why, but the movie is still pretty fun to watch. At least it won't let you pick up your phone halfway through. It is said to be a sequel, but there are some places that contradict the previous one, such as...

    Movie plot

    In 1585, at this time Elizabeth I was 52 years old. She is single and unmarried, and her political skills are already very mature. She is open-minded and allows people to believe in Roman Catholicism. However, she was repeatedly confronted by Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots, and Mary even sent a killer to assassinate Elizabeth. On the other hand, the queen also faces the old enemy of Spain. The religious differences between Spain and the...

    Evaluation action

    "Elizabeth: The Golden Age" is like a thick piece of British cheese. If you are ready to watch a movie that looks like a grocery store, you can feel the fun of the film. What the film really focuses on is not the history of the United Kingdom, but the emotions of Elizabeth I, especially the abnormal emotions of Sir Raleigh because of his infatuation. Director Sheega Kapoor tried to make the lifeless British royal life as lively and...

    Movie quotes

    • Queen Elizabeth I: Oh, don't tease me, Mr. Raleigh. There's nothing I'd like to do more.

      Walter Raleigh: So why don't you?

      Queen Elizabeth I: Alright, then. I will!

    • Queen Elizabeth I: Bess would like to go to sea.

      Walter Raleigh: I'm afraid that's not possible. Women bring bad luck on ships.

      Queen Elizabeth I: Do they?

      Walter Raleigh: Lock up a hundred men in a space smaller than this room, for months at a time. Men have needs. A beautiful woman would drive us all mad.

    • Queen Elizabeth I: Mr. Raleigh is eager to sail away to his maiden colony. We must persuade him to stay a little longer. Mustn't we, ladies?
