Mrs. Bellon's afterthought: - people will die fortunately

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Veron's film is so rigorous, profound and magnificent.

This movie has been sleeping in my drawer for at least three or five years, and I have never been interested in watching it, thinking it is a shallow work that praises Mrs. Veron. I took it out today and took a look at it from beginning to end, only to realize that it is a short biopic, and that the form of the opera is very well combined with the large-scale crowd scenes.

The biggest sigh of watching this movie is: Fortunately, people are going to die. If people don't die, I can't imagine how those dictators and the women around them would make a fortune and treat the people like a grasshopper?


Mrs. Veron climbed to the throne of the first lady step by step, relying on men as stepping stones. The movie clearly tells us that in her relationship with men, she is completely exploitative, unscrupulous, and she is not ashamed. I read the comments here, and many people regard this film as an inspirational film, but I feel that although the director did not condemn her, she never praised her behavior.

After becoming the first lady, she claimed that she came from the bottom of the society, understood the people's abandonment of suffering, and would seek happiness for the people, but in fact, apart from enjoying power and luxury, she never cared about the people's livelihood. Her so-called welfare for the people is nothing more than a charity company that distributes lottery tickets, and this charity company has no accounts. We constantly see in the movies that in Argentina under Veron, there are constantly military and police riding on the streets to storm the parade people, and this is how they treat the people.

The dictators and their mistresses of the third world are always loved by their people on the surface, but in fact they don't care about the people at all, even if the people who love them are mostly deceived by propaganda, and this The film conveys this very well, which makes me admire the director.

We have always had a lot of characters such as the mother of the state and the first lady here. Just look at Mrs. Veron and you will know what their roles are.
