Later I learned that this was a new work by the director of "Lobster". No wonder the whole movie is filled with a lingering weird feeling.
The first sentence asked by the friends who went to the movie together was: So, does Abigail really love the queen? I was a little surprised by this question, because I thought everyone would feel like me that the only thing that might be questionable in the whole movie is whether Sarah really loves the queen. As for Abigail, there is a sword of Damocles hanging over his head. In my opinion, feelings are probably too far away for her in the movie.
After watching the movie, I went back to check the historical data, and all the characters are real. Of course, in order to facilitate this audience who lacks imagination and cannot understand the fourth type of feeling, the director simply and crudely interpreted the fourth type of feeling between the queen and Sarah Churchill into homosexuality. (In fact, it's not just this audience. Sarah herself didn't know how to introspect after discovering that the queen who was obedient to her was slowly turning to Abigail. Instead, she tried to insinuate the adultery between the queen and Abigail, which shocked the queen.) In fact. Married and loyal to her husband at the age of 18. She was pregnant 17 times before she was less than 40, but she failed to keep a child alive. He died before becoming a queen) The queen who was severely gout and semi-disabled probably needed purely spiritual understanding, support, companionship and comfort.
The queen and Sarah have known each other since childhood and have a close relationship. Sarah is five years older than the Queen, and she is smart, beautiful, cheerful and outgoing. I think the little girl Anne, who had nothing to do with the throne at the time, must have admired and looked up to Sarah.
After the Glorious Revolution, the Queen's sister Queen Mary and her husband William became the monarchs of the United Kingdom. Mary and William had no children, so Anne became the first heir to the throne at that time. Partly because of the power struggle, and partly because of the protection of Sarah Churchill and his wife, Anne and her only sister, Mary, who grew up together, were cut off to death in the end. The Queen and Sarah’s deep friendship, which can be regarded as the same window, carried guns and divided the spoils, inevitably still drifted away from the political differences with the passage of time, and finally because of Abigail, the love was also cut off to death. The ending.
It is said that when the Queen and her sister Queen Mary met for the last time, Mary attacked the relationship between the Queen and Sarah and asked the Queen to drive Sarah away. The Queen resolutely refused, so the two broke up. They never saw each other until Mary died for two years. noodle. Eighteen years later, the queen and Sarah met for the last time. It is said that Sarah wanted to repair the relationship with the queen, but in the end she still aggressively attacked the relationship between the queen and Abigail and asked the queen to drive Abigail away. The queen also resolutely refused. After a complete break, Sarah and her husband were relieved of their duties from the court and went to Europe. After that, they never met again for more than three years until the death of the queen.
How ironic and sighing.
I didn't have too many thoughts after watching the movie, but after reading the real history, I felt very hurt. The queen and Sarah’s characters, feelings, and antipathy have too much space for people to explore, so there seems to be a lot of biographies, novels and dramas focusing on them over the years. This movie can be regarded as one of the ways of interpretation.
However, no matter how you read it or imagine it, the only clear fact is: as expensive as the queen, in fact, in front of the powerful Sarah, I am afraid that it has been helpless to internal injuries, so the queen finally chose the gentle Abigail to be her friend, although she will never be her friend again. Will be as unreserved as Sarah once did. The feelings between women are extremely fragile. Even with the aura of the queen and the duchess, the plastic sisters still cannot escape the fate of the plastic sisters. Or it has nothing to do with women. The relationship between any person is actually very fragile in the face of interests and human nature. If the two sides don't know how to maintain it, it will be difficult to escape the end of a small boat.
The song is sung like this: so be it, no matter how much you love, the song will end; then break up, no matter how much you love, there is no need to struggle. To the queen and Sarah.
