Performance and makeup that can definitely match "Iron Lady"

If you like a movie like "Gosford Manor", you might like this one, because although the location is different, it still has a feeling of period drama, class contradictions, and mysticism. If you don't like "Transamerica" ​​very much, you should not have a good impression of this film, because the theme here is still gender disorder, although it is not gender identity disorder.

I have always had no feeling for Glenn Close, maybe her image in "Fatal Attraction" impressed me too much. In addition, this poster has the feeling of a horror movie, even though it has won several important Oscar nominations, I still don’t want to watch it.

I didn’t make up my mind until I saw the comment that the makeup of the film was very good, and it could compete with "Iron Lady".

Unexpectedly, unexpectedly good-looking. Needless to say, the actress and make-up, the Oscar judges are really eye-catching. I really like this story. Although it is a relatively heavy subject, because it happened a long time ago and far away, there is naturally a sense of distance when watching the movie, but it is quite "healing"-although the mood changes with the female The protagonist’s experience has been ups and downs, but in the end there is a peculiar sense of gratitude: Fortunately, we are not in that era and that place.

The supporting role is also quite surprising. Janet McTeer, the painter who has had a great influence on the heroine, is really amazing (only to find out that she was nominated for an Oscar). When it came out, I thought it was Felicity Hoffman ("Transamerica") who was back in the arena, and I was wondering how it got so much higher.

The biggest discovery in the movie was Mia Wasikowska. Last time this level of joy happened when I fell in love with Carey Mulligan while watching "Growth Education". It must be said that Mia has some look and temperament that reminds me of Gwyneth Paltrow when she was young, but she feels more fresh, natural and simple.

The soundtrack of this film is also quite perfect. In my opinion, it is better than the best scores in this year’s Oscars, but unfortunately it was not nominated. If you choose to watch the movie and you can finish it, you will love the singing of Sinéad O'Connor when the ending subtitles are played. (O'Connor herself is Irish, I am afraid that no one is more suitable to sing for this film than her).

Finally, predict the "Olympics" of this film. I think the makeup level and difficulty of this film are higher than that of "Iron Lady". Although the two nominated supporting actresses in "The Maid" are very impressive, the depth of their roles is not as good as the supporting actresses in this film, and the difficulty of the performance is therefore not as high. (The other two nominations for the same award are bound to scatter the votes.) I sincerely hope that this film will win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress and Makeup tomorrow. Glenn Close's performance can indeed compete with Aunt May, but Oscar seems to have always preferred biographical themes. . .

In the end, I solemnly stated that this film is definitely not a lesbian film, and I will definitely be disappointed to watch this. It is more reliable to say that this movie is a gay movie than to say it is a lesbian movie (I do hope you get my weird sense of humor).

Rating: 9 out of 10
