The film is neither a biopic nor the kind of romance that Erjiao loves. It can be called a romantic comedy, but Erjiao prefers to classify it as a historical romance. This classification is based on two distinct and exciting points of the film: one is the high degree of restoration of the British style paintings of Victoria I in the film and television, and the other is the interaction between the love experience of the protagonist William Shakespeare and his works.
Plot: The most commendable thing is that the love story of the protagonists William Shakespeare and Viola interacts, draws close to and even separates from the plot of Romeo and Juliet, in other words, in our (movie audience) eyes, William and Viola La's love is a play, so the Romeo play they prepared is a play within a play, and the interaction between plays and plays within plays is a very clever idea of the film. Even more ingeniously, at the end of the movie, Viola was pardoned by the Queen for the "crime" of performing in the theater as a woman, but her engagement with Baron Wesse had already been appointed by the Queen and could not be changed. The plot of "Two Nights" hints at the future of Viola and Shakespeare's love: Viola and Baron Wesse go to the colony and are killed at sea. Duke presumably alluding to Shakespeare? Erhorn is not sure). Erjiao doesn't seem to have any special features in the main line of love scenes. When the two meet soon, it is a fire. The bed scenes and kissing scenes are really layered, so passionate and romantic. It is unrealistic and cannot increase Erjiao's experience or understanding of love. In general, Shakespeare in Love is a film whose love story is generally simple and even clichéd, but filled with humorous and clever little details such as the apt introduction of Shakespeare's poetry, Shakespeare and Vio La's love is constantly moving closer to the story of Romeo and Juliet, the ending of their love is the beginning of "Twelfth Night", etc., which can make people very happy and even moved. For European and American audiences who are familiar with Shakespeare's plays, many details of the film may be more surprising.
Actor: Gwyneth Paltrow, who played Viola, was at the peak of her beauty, and her frown and smile were so elegant and moving. Dressed as a Victorian aristocratic woman, she closed her eyes very well and did not play. For many idioms handed down from ancient times, Erjiao always "has its shape but not its meaning", such as "quiet like a virgin, moving like a rabbit", this idiom originally means the calmness of the army (when it is not in action) and swiftness (when it is ordered). and line time), is now often used to describe women. Erjiao couldn't imagine what a woman who was "quiet like a virgin and moved like a rabbit" looked like, never seen it before. But now I've seen it, I know it, and I'm stunned. Viola, played by Gwyneth, is a powerful comment that makes people realize that she is the quiet duchess of the banquet, elegant and beautiful; in the boudoir and in front of her lover, she is full of energy, enthusiasm, and a lively expression. With body movements, it is more like a bird out of a cage than a rabbit. It is not a running agility, but a flying creature. Because of seeing such a beautiful Gwyneth, and thinking of Virginia Potts in the "Iron Man" series, I can't help but feel that the beauty is twilight.
