From Russia With Love
Casimer 2022-05-01 06:01:08
Nicole Kidman usually plays more lady-type roles. In this film, the Russian bride she plays gives people a completely different feeling, which can be described as a transformational work that subverts the self. John found the Russian woman played by Kidman from an international matchmaking website. The name of the website seems to be "From Russia With Love"-derived from the title of the second part of the 007 series. But John was not as lucky as Bond. The arrival of the beautiful bride did not bring a happy life. Two Russian uninvited guests completely broke John's peaceful life. As a British film, little humor appears in this film from time to time, which looks quite interesting.
Extended Reading
-
John: [first lines - to the camera] Running, reading, going out, staying in, countryside, films - if they're good. Intelligent, of course, kind, pretty - I suppose, but it's not critical. Someone you can *really* talk to. I think communication is key.

Sophia: If you just wanted sex, go to a prostitute.
John: Well, as it turns out, I did.
