Inferiority and Anxiety in the British

A week before watching this movie, I passed by my classmate's dormitory and saw that my classmate was watching "Agent Bean 2". Although I had no feelings for the "Mr. Bean" series and Bean himself, I was not interested in this type of purple-black anti-traditional spoof. I would still like to watch the film, and sure enough, as expected, Agent Doudou suppressed the IQ of those ruthless terrorists (in fact, they should have been suppressed by their own IQ). In the end, everyone is happy, Agent Doudou saves the world, but the British who are naturally good at self-deprecating still blackmail the Queen of England. After watching it, my classmate said to me, "This film shouldn't be called "Agent Bean", it should be called "The Decline of the British Empire".

After watching this film, if "Agent Bean" is a self-deprecating comedy about the decline of its international status, then this film is a serious self-analysis of the British people's embarrassing international status after World War II. China's two major intelligence agencies: the British Empire's intelligence agency "Circular Field" found that its internal personnel had been infiltrated by the Soviet intelligence agency "Centre", and the boss of "Circular Field" had to conduct an internal investigation. For the position of the boss, they are also intriguing with each other. There is no other way but to ask the retired special agent "beggar" to continue the investigation as an outsider. In the end, the truth is revealed. However, ironically, the "center" just wants to Using the "Circular Field" as a springboard, they indirectly spy on the intelligence of their greatest enemy, the ally of the British Empire, the United States. After such a busy job, the British are just a supporting role in this intelligence drama.

The film is set during the Cold War, and the British Empire at this time is no longer the "Empire on which the Sun Never Sets". World War II consumed all of Britain's gold reserves and almost wiped out their naval and air armies. In Churchill's words, they (Britain) are now just a thin "little donkey", only because of their old qualifications. "(USA) and "Polar Bear" (Soviet Union). The British who have come from that period should have deeply engraved in their bones about the decline and concern of the country. Although the Soviet Union has long since disintegrated, the United States still dominates the United States. Although the British Empire has recovered its vitality, it cannot Speaking of the same day, just like the fascist Italy in those days, he could only watch his little brother Germany rise up. No way, thirty years Hedong, thirty years Hexi.

Coincidentally, the tone of inferiority in the film has also been brought to reality. The film can be described as a collection of powerful British actors, "Old Ruffian" Gary Oldman, "King" Colin Firth, and
Toby the Short ·Jones, Gary's performance can get more Oscars, but at the Oscars in the United States, this British film suffered from Waterloo, and it failed. It seems that after so many years, "Little Brother" has long looked down on "Big Brother" ".
