Popular Romance in the Name of Fake History

A love story made to express love. In terms of content, it is too fragmented and poor. The main line of the queen's love from bud to end is the main line, and the sub-line is the power struggle and political crisis in the palace. But the content of the main line is simple, and the sub-line is also vaguely handled, so that after reading it, I only know "Oh~ I'm married", and nothing else is left. In the film, it can be seen that the queen is very young and has no foresight in dealing with things, so as to unintentionally fuel infighting between different parties, but why this infighting has spread to the public and has become the fuse of public protests, but there is no clear explanation, and the people are crowded. The struggle in front of the palace seemed incomprehensible. And this film does not state how the Queen has been in power for three years, how to deal with different politicians, test, explore her position and position, and find allies, but it portrays the Queen as if she had been obsessed under the influence of Lord Melbourne, until It is normal to be "saved" only after marriage.
Therefore, the only thing to watch in the film is the love of a golden boy and a girl, and this seems so natural. It seems that because Victoria is the queen who is loved by future generations, because the true love between Victoria and Albert in the political marriage is so precious and worthy of praise, it is very pleasant to talk about their love in this film, not to mention the scenes and scenes. How sophisticated the costumes are, it really makes the fans worth the ticket price. But is it really so? At least I don't think I'm not British and don't have royal fever.
In terms of actors, in general, every actor is quite suitable, especially Emily Blunt, who is quite vivid in trying to figure out the ignorance of the little girl and the fear that needs to be concealed. But the problem still has to return to the blandness of the script. Although the actor who plays Albert is very handsome, the character setting is really flat. He appeared to fall in love with the queen. Apart from loving the queen, he has no emotions or hesitations of his own. As long as the queen needs him, he will appear, just like he is in the film. The function in it is just to present a historical memory of perfect love, nothing else. The same is true for the Queen, although she can be seen from the beginning of the green and hesitant, to the gradual growth and firmness of her character after ruling, but there is nothing else. Why is she so reliant on Melbourne, at least in the film? How does she get involved in politics? Her complex feelings for her mother are all I look forward to seeing deeper and more.
It is a pity that the plot is so mediocre under the exquisite costumes and props. Although historical movies do not need to create too many false dramatic climaxes and emotional shocks, just because it is history, we should explain history, at least make it clear , to be able to pay attention to the multiple emotions and thinking of the characters, to be able to fully describe the historical events, so that the viewers feel that they have gained something, not just watching a love movie so brainless, so 1+1=2.

Because it's sincere in the costumes and props, and because Emily Blunt is so expressive, one more star is added to the essence of the two stars.

    9 kids! There are really few historical films with good endings. . . This girl is not so good-looking here, the one who has become more pleasing to the eye is paul... and it turns out that KK is just a pair with him! The two really look alike. Some angles are also more like Orlando Bloom. The men's clothing is very exquisite, especially the large row of embroidery on the chest

The Young Victoria quotes

  • Prince Albert: [repeated line, to Victoria] Good morning, wife.

  • Sir John Conroy: [outraged] I cannot believe I'm being subjected to this interrogation.

    Prince Albert: [sitting behind a desk, piled with papers] You're not being subjected to anything, Sir John. You have been in charge of the Duchess's finances for many years. Indeed, you have made public statements testifying to their health.

    Sir John Conroy: I have!

    Duchess of Kent: And I am so grateful.

    Prince Albert: All I am asking is that you will be so good as to tell us exactly where the money has gone.
