Personally, I really like watching historical dramas. This time I watched The White Qreen and I was very impressed, so I started my first film review. Don't spray if you don't like it.
This is a British drama worth watching, if you can accept the occasional boring and bloody historical drama. On the whole, the show still respects history, and the costumes are as high-quality as the BBC has always been, except that part of the witchcraft is fantasy. The actors' acting skills are all good, but every time I see Mrs. Margaret appearing, she gets a little bored. Her piety has become neurotic... The following is a little messy perception.
During the War of the Roses, the relationship between the royal family was intricate and the king changed frequently. The White Qreen, Elizabeth, was portrayed as a Gone with the Wind. She is a widow, but she can take away the heart of the new king Edward IV, and take her two children into the palace to become a queen; she is smart and calm, and improves the status of the Rivers family. She will analyze the current situation and give Edward to listen and guide him. Make the right decision; she has a tough attitude, and will not give up in the face of a situation related to family and self-interest; she is loyal to love, and after marrying Edward, she gave birth to a group of children for him. Edward has a mistress and will tolerate him and curse and frame him. Edward's people. But at the same time, she is also selfish and suspicious. Her dedication to the throne and her distrust of people around her made her make many enemies, causing Richard III and her to suspicion each other, and finally killed her brother Anthony and eldest son Richard. Fortunately, in the end, she was relieved and understood "when is the time to report the wrongdoing", which also put an end to this war period. The above is my impression of Elizabeth.
Speaking of the three sons of York, they worked hard with their cousin Warwick to establish the York dynasty. But after letting Edward wait for the position, George was ambitious and single-minded to be the king, and Warwick manipulated behind him to control all the conditions of the court. In the end, Warwick died as a rebel, and the three Yorkers died one by one due to internal and external struggles. The huge York family only left the blood of Prince Richard. The final victory of the Lancaster family was actually due to the infighting of the York family. Otherwise, with the strength of the York family, the Lancaster family with only one heir would be difficult to win.
My deepest feeling about this drama is: Is power really so important? For the sake of power and money, it can split the brothers who fought the world together at the beginning, enable women to make plans for their husbands on how to fight for their own interests, and enable young children to covet the throne and have revenge...
Chaotic times, power, Money, life, feelings...Finally, the look in Richard III's eyes after being stabbed, the helmet and crown that fell beside him, Margaret said religiously that she knew Henry would become king, and Elizabeth said no With revenge, Princess Elizabeth will become a queen like her, and this troubled world is finally over.
