I want to be the girl in your eyes

I have to admit that the most terrifying thing is that the person closest to you suddenly turned against you, or that a certain look in his eyes shocked you for a moment, he has become your enemy without you being prepared, and you The most unapproachable person.
Whether I'm watching a promo or a small spoiler, I have to feed the fact that Scarlett Johansson is playing Marie, the hibiscus-like sister, and Natalie Portman is the The scheming sister Annie - this is the director's little trick, everyone will think that Natalie's quiet temperament is easier to play the persecuted one, and she herself is a few years older than Scarlett. Their participation allowed the Pauline family to include Hollywood's most popular beauty descendants - although they were not British - and launched the battle for the queen by Henry VIII's side. Of course, there are always innocent people, and some people have the last laugh.
The adaptation of the original British court film is nothing new. The political background of the 16th century, the struggle for power and the chaotic situation of the government and the opposition, have many elements that the film needs. The two sisters under Chinese clothing, in this bloody struggle, although the phrase "because we are sisters" has changed its meaning due to various changes in the situation, they still have to compete in the end.
The girl's feelings are truly rippling around a lush forest, around a small chimney house with white smoke, and during a cheerful dance. When it was not used as a weight in exchange for the interests of the family, Annie's sweet and peaceful smile was reflected in the eyes of the dance partner, pure and cheerful. She is Mary's best sister. After entering the palace together, the two sisters saw the luxurious life of the palace and the power of great temptation. Unwilling to see her sister, who is about to ascend to the throne of the Queen with flesh and blood, unwilling to be just "another Pauline's daughter" in history, Anne has transformed from a pure girl to a hidden "conspiracy" in a blink of an eye. ". The identity of "another Pauline's daughter" moves from Anne to Mary as the plot progresses. When Anne puts on the queen's fur and holds a scepter, she does not see genuine happiness on her face. . So, the end is still the eternal eternal evil will be rewarded with evil, and good will be rewarded with good. As in the beginning of the battle for Henry VIII, the latecomers will insidiously succeed in a truth.
At the moment when Annie went to the guillotine, it should be foreseeable, beware that like Zhishui's sister Mary, who has an ordinary and happy life, standing in front of her grave must still be the face of the sister she is most familiar with. Even though she was saddened and shocked by the sisterhood that never changed, Mary was most worthy of saying "because we are sisters".
At the end of the film, I felt that it would be easier for Scarlett, who still has some baby fat, to play the kind sister, and it would be easier to sublimate the connotation of her role.
