Find a good man to play chess with you~

Impressed by the dialogue between Victoria and Albert playing chess in the film:

Victoria: Do you ever feel like a pawn? …they come and put me on the chessboard…

ALBERT: Play through all the rules until you are better than them.

Victoria: Wouldn't you recommend a husband to play chess for me?

Albert: I'll find someone to play chess with you, not for you.

First of all, I'm not a feminist, and I'm not currently in a state of being manipulated. I think it's really not easy for Queen Victoria to find a man she really loves in that seat. The reason why I am very touched by this sentence is because which woman doesn't want to find someone who "plays chess with you"?

As a girl, and the discussions among the girls around you, you generally hope to find someone who can "play chess for you", and pin all your hopes on a man, let him solve your troubles and troubles for you, and go all out. Depend on him, but is a man like Albert the one you want to meet? Being totally dependent on a man is the saddest and most stupid act, because the changes brought about by time are really scary, so it is better to be an independent woman.

Of course, it is to be an independent little woman and find a man who walks side by side with you. The reason why it is called a little woman is that when you encounter difficulties and cannot face and solve it alone, you will find the man beside you to accompany you. Let's "play chess" together! Wouldn't it be better to rely on and support each other, give each other trust, and overcome difficulties together? !

How long you can play a game of chess depends on who you play with~

    I want a Prince Albert too. I'm thinking about Givenchy Haute Couture and Rupert Friend's legs.

    It is very difficult for palace dramas to achieve a balanced and clear narrative

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.
