If only there was love

A not boring, well-understood literary film, with a very good perspective (the Duchess of Windsor's point of view), plus the bonus of Madonna and beautiful and handsome guys, it is worth watching.

I suddenly remembered to revisit it when I was refilling the crown. The first feeling of the second time turned out to be the acting skills of the Duchess of Windsor, especially the acting skills in the early stage, which are very ordinary. At least when she was with Edward, her smile was not distracting. In the later stage of the movie, her regret was much more touching. In the reading of the letter, her acting skills reached a climax under the background of the lines.

What I like most about this movie is its female perspective. Love can be selfish. Once it reaches the height of marriage, there is more to consider, not to mention this marriage that attracts the attention of the world. People only see the sacrifice of the man (or the strong side), but ignore the sacrifice of the woman (the weak side) as well.

But thinking about it, Wallis is so happy when he is in love, and when he needs to take on the responsibility of marriage, he misses the peaceful life before, and misses the second husband who was left behind by him? Wouldn't it be unrelenting! What I regret is that I loved someone I shouldn't love, and I found that my life with him was not as good as I imagined. Only love forever and ever! So if only love is good, you love me, and I will also miss the happy time with you. We don't have to be together, we don't have to take responsibility. Say goodbye if you don't love anymore, don't fall in love forever under other people's expectations.

There are many sacrifices in marriage. The best state is to take the initiative, whether it is because of love or family. It is a pity that many people's sacrifices are actually sacrifices that have to be compromised, because there is no other way, and they have to make sacrifices to maintain their marriage.

Yes, I like the soundtrack
