      Strong Hitchcock style

      The heroine is very beautiful after heavy makeup, the side looks better than the front, and the dress collocation is very fashionable and playful. The little boy who suddenly appeared, the cyclist who came in. If it was black and white, I would have thought it was Hitchcock's work. The plot of the movie is a bit incomprehensible. 1. The family tried their best to prevent her from leaking secrets, but she ran away in front of them alone and no one stopped her. 2. Her name is Anna, but her...

      The darkness is always where you can't see it

      The evaluation of this movie is not high, but after watching it, I feel that it suits my appetite. Maybe the environment and mood at the time were very suitable for watching this movie, so I watched it very deeply. The plot arrangement is relaxed and logical, and the logic is quite clear. There is no dull or inexplicable feeling. The details and texture of the film are impeccable, and a lot of effort has been put into the scenes of costumes and props. The new and old actors are gathered...

      truth doesn't matter

      Text/Buenos,
             as a historical film made by the BBC, [39 Years of Glory] has maintained the production level of [The Legend of Elizabeth I] and [Pride and Prejudice]. The country villas or antique mansions change one by one, and the actors are gentlemen and ladies in their gestures, which are well-mannered and pleasing to the eye. But what is even more rare in the film is that the script is quite well-crafted. On the surface, it is suspenseful, but on the inside, it is discussing how...

      This movie looks so depressing!

      The actor's appearance and acting skills are outstanding, but it is a pity that the screenwriter is too weak to waste the actors. Imprisoning family members for being anti-war or not, what kind of bullshit theme is this? I don't like the final solution. From the plot, glorious's character is dynamic, adventurous, charming, and assertive. How can such a person be disadvantaged for a long time? The expected rise and counterattack did not happen, which is quite disappointing. Running away from...

      It's a British dark movie

      Looking at the name, I thought it was a war romance film similar to "Atonement". But it turned out to be an ethical film telling a truth, children still only love their own birth: the background of the great era in 1939, in the UK on the brink of war, the government that promoted the appeasement policy implemented a terrorist policy to assassinate freedom advocates, but the story did not tell the history. The war, but put the picture in a noble family with a sanctimonious appearance. The eldest...

      From various protagonists to supporting roles, Yishui'er came from a British academy. "Gray Robe" Christopher Lee came to show his face. It is a relatively rare type of themes derived from World War II. Slightly stuffy in the middle. The end is...

      The story begins with the death of one of the heroine's friends (a member of the House of Commons) who opposes appeasement policies, and is a political thriller with a small cut. Thinking of recent events, people in a certain historical stall may habitually think that the current year (month) can be maintained (good), and the distant war has nothing to do with me until the arrival of the Third Reich, until the arrival of the Third Reich. When the history books turn to that page, is it necessary...

    Evaluation action

    It's a Hitchcock-esque political feature film, at times creepy and at times goofy. Director Stephen Polyakov puts Romola Garai at the center of the vortex of events: sort of like Margaret Lockwood in "The Missing" or Cary Grant in "North by Northwest." A modern framing device appears in every scene she appears in, sadly diminishing some of the film's opaque elements. When Annie stumbles across something creepy, the audience sees...
