A main line, two stories intertwined in time and space, Wally and Wallis are people from two time and space, and the two of them have a subtle connection, but I wonder if the intertwining of the stories of these two people is a bit far-fetched? So in the first 20 minutes, I didn't understand what the story was about at all. Can this be understood as the director's forced story introduction? The second is the editing of the movie. Maybe because I don't know much about the professional knowledge of the movie, I think it seems a little messy. However, since I haven't seen a movie of this type of story development before, I think it's still relatively new.
No matter in terms of character modeling, costumes, details, environment rendering, lines, and soundtrack, they are all impeccable, as if Madonna is making a fresh and artistic romantic movie. Of course, it turns out that she wants more than just In this way, it is more about wanting people to have an identification with her values.
This is actually not just "A King's Love Story" but also a love story between a woman and a king. How many people think it is a pity for a king to give up the throne and choose a beauty, what about Wallis? In my opinion she is also a victim of love. As a free American woman, despite how unhappy her marriage was, at least she could have continued to be free to find her true happiness. However, Edward gave up the throne that made his love and hate intertwined, and loved Wallis without hesitation. He was freed from imprisonment. Wallis, she gave up her freedom and loved Edward with the infamy of the whole world. Trapped in a lifetime of condemnation, this is her tragedy.
"Love is blind, makes lovers happy and miserable." This description can't be more appropriate. If the two of them didn't love each other so deeply and abandoned each other all the time, maybe the story would not be so sad, but it wouldn't be moving enough. Criticize it, so Madonna used literary and artistic methods to outline the contradictory world, contradictory reality, and contradictory love: we can't escape if we want to, and it is great to face reality. Even if the two of them end up having no children, in their later years, even before Edward's death, the two of them are still happy and in love as ever.
After watching this film, I think I believe in love again. Sometimes love is not so unbearable. At least I saw the feats that shook the world in the last century. Even today, people are still happy. If you say their relationship is nondescript (Wallis and Wally are both wives), then I would say that love is pure, and it is only because we set up too many frames for it that some loves become nondescript.
WE is Wallis and Edward, also Wally and Egani (Evgeni·Kolpakov, the security guard in the film), we don't need to find out which main line is taking the lead, we just need to understand - "WE ARE LOVE" (we two man is love).
The above is my humble opinion, please criticize and correct.
