On Cleopatra's behavior and human nature

In my opinion, Cleopatra is actually a complex person. She not only has multiple desires and multiple external qualities, but more importantly, her multiple identities and missions.

As a political figure, as a ruler, she is responsible, she is responsible to all the people, to the state of Egypt, to defend the peace and security of Egypt and the people, she uses men to seize politics, that is Caesar and Antony; Undoubtedly, in this political struggle, she was smart, brave, courageous and resourceful. In the lonely times of Egypt, she dared to approach Caesar, the ruler of Rome, who was far from her own country in strength. Give a lot of help; use his resourcefulness to help Anthony, a general who doesn't understand politics, take a good political road. In Egypt's life, the Queen undoubtedly continued Egypt with her own efforts. She is cruel and wise.

At the same time, as a flesh and blood person, she also has her own desires and requirements. She could use Caesar to kill her younger brother for the sake of power and desire to achieve the purpose of monopolizing power; for her love, she assisted Anthony and protected him well, and finally died with Anthony, giving up Octavian's request. She is strong.

She was a victim of a man's political struggle. She has ambition, resourcefulness, and even the ability to compete with men for political power. Unfortunately, one of them did not meet the era of Hatshepsut, and it was the decline and sunset of Egypt, and she was born at an untimely time; The status of the ancient patriarchal society can be imagined. In fact, many times it is involuntarily, and many times it is driven by the trend of the times. She is sad.

In fact, many aspects of human nature can be reflected in Yan Queen, but we sometimes don't know it.

    Hey, I originally thought it was a film about the promiscuous life of the Queen Mother, but I didn't expect it to be a grand historical drama, and it was also called 20th Century Fox's bankrupt work. For more than four hours, I was drowsy, and the dialogue was like a play. In addition, the shape and scene are really magnificent. .

    A magnificent and magnificent love epic that won 4 Oscars. The sets, props, costumes, and staging are so extravagant that it's no wonder that Fox nearly went bankrupt. Needless to say, Taylor's acting skills, "Caesar" and "Octavian" are vivid from appearance to performance, and the wonderful soundtrack also makes this "box office poison" even more worth watching. In and out of the play, the love between Queen Yan and Anthony has always made people sigh. (8.5/10)
