      I like the description under the British theme

      The typical English literary writing method is calm and shocking, and it is introduced step by step. Like this British theme. JOAN's life is rich and colorful, and it has always been for ideals. Love and ideals are the themes that have always been centered in the movie. While watching, I kept thinking about how an individual under a big background can behave so ordinary. This is the moral. With slow memories, the director evokes a person's thinking about life and its meaning. . . . . . . . ....

      In order to restrain the United States, the British spy helped the Soviet Union obtain atomic bomb secrets

      This article was first published on the official account Xihua.com (ID: lessubs)

      This film is adapted from the novel "Red Joan" of the same name published in 2014. It tells the wonderful life of the longest-lived female spy in the UK, Joan Elizabeth Stanley, whose prototype is Melita Norwood.

      Melita was a valuable spy who was planted in the UK by the KGB (Soviet "National Security Council") during World War II.

      The Soviet Union was able to become the second country in the...

      A Western Mohist character, Hong Qiong

      Show the history of nuclear weapons development and dissemination from a personal perspective, and promote the advantages of fraternity in Western culture. The film portrays the heroine as an important historical figure, a person who, like Snowden, has a higher-than-national thinking. Strictly speaking, the heroine is not a spy, but a person who wants to control history with her own thinking....

      What the movie wants to tell you is not the archetype of the characters, only love can understand the movie of love

      First of all, this is an excellent movie I have seen.

      "This is the best time and the worst time." Controlled by the information revolution and mainstream values, we are fascinated by that era. The date knocking on the window, the love between letters, the education of reading books, the lectures in the square Politics, controversial ideas, and of course the British style of suits and ties are all romances that cannot be reproduced at the moment.

      The director told an...

      Still great

      The presentation of the story and the casting have to be said to be great. As for some film friends mentioned that the depth of history is not well presented, I personally feel that the director is waiting for someone who can resonate. Some feelings are easily captured by people who have had similar experiences or are familiar with that period of history. The emotions of the film are restrained and understood by oneself, so there is no need to express them too passionately. Just like the...

      A person who was pressed on the ground and rubbed repeatedly, all relying on personal sentimentality, and forcibly reversed at the end, the main theme film, filmed like this, is rough...

      It was not easy for women of that era! !...

      It was the start of TIFF the year before, and the next year was a bit of a buzz in the awards season; the "invisible woman" in the patriarchal era wanted to do bigger things, looking back in old age... It's a pity that this is not like "The Good Wife" is Glenn's one-man show, but Judie's work carrying a sedan chair for the newcomer. So the disproportion of the two sections did not bring the quality any further. Even relying on historical facts, the agents of the shrewd world easily and fully...

      Cineworld@Glasgow. The traditional bbc-style fine and solid soundtrack and narrative, the paradox of science and war like a dark forest, the unusual espionage laws of the Cold War era of World War II, the love and struggle of a woman between two men. How much love, betrayal, redemption, destiny, and realistic calculations are in her final choice are really intriguing. The fog of history is easy to disperse, and the entanglement of people's hearts is hard to...

      A movie that tells a story, a real event and people. Both Judi Dench and Sophie Cookson did a great job, very composed and calm. The film seems to be more entangled in love relationships. I feel that Joan is engaged in espionage for herself and her lover, which is an underestimation of Joan's own ideals and realms. Of course, from a cinematic point of view, this might look better, and it avoids its strong ideological...

    Movie quotes

    • Joan Stanley: I was fighting for the living, I loved my country!

    • Joan Stanley: Use your heart instead of your head.

    • Sonya: [Voice over] Behave normally. Don't look nervous. We need files, reports, drawings, diagrams... We should always meet in public places. It's too dangerous to come to my house. For new material, make an extra copy. Don't conceal it. Keep it with the real file until you are ready to bring it to me. If you must hide anything, do it in plain sight. Be prepared to improvise. And if you think you're being followed, go into a ladies' shop. No man will follow you there.
