The Downton Abbey movie version of Happy Ending is installed for each character. The story tells more Disney than Disney, but the strange thing is that it makes people look happy and don't want to complain.
It may be my loyal fan status—from the beginning of the first episode of the first season to the present. I'm not qualified to be an afterthought, because when I watched the first season, I didn't see that the show would come out of the sky later. In the recent ten years of television circles, Quan You may have overshadowed Downton Abbey's edge.
When it first aired in 2010, I always felt that the actors of this show were not good enough, so my cousin could watch it. Ten years later, I followed all the protagonists on INS and felt that everyone was a person who came out of the painting.
Now I finally know why the British would use "Charming" to describe a person as attractive. The elegance of British actors' gestures is much higher than that of "Hot", "Cute", and "Attractive".
To a certain extent, "Downton Abbey" is like a reality show of British aristocrats. It records all aspects of the aristocratic life with unprecedented detail, ranging from community governance to servants' work and rest, greatly satisfying the audience. Curiosity. In the six seasons of the story, Downton Abbey, which has gone through 14 years of ups and downs, has held several weddings and funerals. It has also received the wounded of World War I, foreign envoys, business magnates and top politicians. It is just that the audience is boasting "We haven't seen anything." "At the time, Downton's movie version dropped a blockbuster in the first five minutes-the royal family's visit.
Although this is not the first time that the Crawley family has received the royal family, as early as the fourth season of Miss Rose’s coming-of-age ceremony and ball, Edward VIII, the Prince of Wales, has already appeared on the stage and also performed the opening dance with Miss Rose. But the dance party was held in the London apartment of the Crawley family. It was the first time that His Lordship and Her Ladyship met the royal family in their hometown in Downton. Not to mention that this time King George V visited in person.
The movie version still uses a two-line narrative of "upstairs" and "downstairs". I thought that the reception of the royal family should be the home of the ladies upstairs, but it turns out that the movie version is definitely the housekeeper and servants downstairs.
Fighting wits and courage with the royal servants, even the conservative royalist Carson was boldly involved in this "revolution." Daisy in the kitchen is not just a little bit more beautiful. Mr. Mosley, who has gone to school to teach, really contributed the best jokes in the film, but the most gratifying thing is Mr. Barrow's story line-once confronted the world alone, so lonely to suicide The new butler finally found his own collective. Once again, Downton Abbey incorporated the changes of the times into the script, and the LGBT community began to fade away and gradually stepped onto the stage of history.
In contrast, the Crawley family upstairs seemed a bit weak.
The second lady who became the marquise gave up her newspaper for the family, and the third son-in-law Tom fell in love with noble women again (the sixth season finale clearly hinted that he would be with the editor-in-chief of the second lady newspaper), even The eldest lady Mary, who has always been fighting spirit, also wavered her determination to maintain the manor. Fortunately, the old lady is still the same cunning, powerful and poisonous tongue for thousands of years. Although she and the eldest lady Mary have completed the spiritual transition at the end of the film, everyone who has seen Downton knows that the old lady is the sacred needle of Downton Abbey!
These old ladies' golden sentences are enough to publish a book, ITV should really consider developing this peripheral, I am the first to spend money to support it.
For me, the most outstanding place in Downton Abbey is not the true restoration of the noble life, but the clever connection of the personnel affairs of the turbulent times in the daily life of a British nobleman.
From the beginning of the story of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912 , we have experienced World War I, the Spanish flu, the Ponzi scheme, the Irish War of Independence, the non-violent non-cooperative movement in India, and the first radio of the British royal family in the 14-year story. Speeches, the rise of the Nazi Party, the October Revolution in Russia, and the Labor Party’s first administration and other major events of the times.
The legendary female pilot Emilia, the romantic crown prince Edward VIII, the Churchill family, Chamberlain and other figures of the era have also appeared in anecdotes or real people.
In the movie version, Edward VIII was ridiculed again (how much the British would not wait to see the abdicated king), and the 1926 British workers' strike was also mentioned.
With a pinch, it is not far from the Second World War at this time (1927). Thinking about it this way, I even more recognized the happy ending of the movie version-after all, waiting for Downton Abbey will be the most painful and dark period in modern British history. The son of Mary and Edith is very likely to be in Dunker. Erke waited for rescue.
The times are changing, and the torrent of history is rolling forward. Thanks to "Downton Abbey" for singing a good show, so that we who can't keep the time, at least retain the memory of the times.
