There aren't many people who can act reasonably and have a characteristic imprint in such a focused close-up.

Jacqueline, shown in the whole film, is an image born for the upper class, with strong social skills. When she is in power, she is surrounded by many people. When she abdicates, she can still wander among a group of men who are pregnant. His knowledge is not profound, but he is outstanding. He is proficient in multiple languages ​​and historical biographies, and he also has his own pursuit of aesthetics (clothing, decoration). Knowing the importance of social status, when thinking about things, they will pay more attention to the impact of different ways on their own image. Compared with the unanimous personal image that Jacqueline left to the public in history, the film shows more of her ordinary side - vanity, bragging, self-willed, so maybe the heroine's slightly excessive performance is actually It is for the purpose of achieving such an alternative image, whether it is true or not, it is really impressive. The skills she has mastered are all necessary for life in the upper class, or it can be said that she will master these skills because they can make her life in the upper class more smoothly.

There are also many admirable aspects. For example, when she encounters such a thing that ordinary people can't bear, when she needs to calm down and need an image after the collapse, she can still achieve the standard that she should achieve, and she is giving her children. When explaining, she is really just an ordinary, helpless and strong mother.
