This film is a thriller recommended by a friend. I have seen some introductions before, I thought there would be some terrifying bloodthirsty scenes, and I was relatively timid, so I waited for a long time to watch it. , prepare to turn off the small voice. But it is obviously superfluous, there are not too many thrilling scenes, but rather a dull biography. The film is relatively plain, just like the European upper class we generally know, dull, decadent, and depressing. But the production is indeed very sophisticated, the heroine's clothes are not many, but full of noble temperament.
The film undoubtedly blames the Countess's ultimate depravity and cruelty on the short but unforgettable love for her. It was nothing but the Count's framing of the poor widow. As the Countess said, everyone's wealth is built on the murder of innocent life, but she is in the clear, even if she kills bloodthirsty is true, the number and cruelty of other counts may be far greater than the countess . Although she is smart, she is ultimately no match for the exclusion of her from the patriarchal society. She is too shrewd and strong, and without her husband's resistance in front, she will either marry according to the secular rules and only need her for money or power, or she will have to die, just because she is smart and strong. , Arrogant, noble, and holding an IOU that the king can't repay, this is the common fate of strong women in ancient and modern China and abroad.
Although Istvan says throughout the play that he loves the countess, I have reservations. Is he really in love with the Countess? Knowing that his father is against their union, he may use all kinds of tactics. He should know more about his father's character and tactics. He didn't take any measures to prevent it and let his father's arrangements. I believe All kinds of rumors made up by my father. It was not until she was sent to arrest the countess that they met again. Is this just a misunderstanding? Cowardly character? I really wonder what his feelings for the Countess are about. This is not what a true lover should do.
In the end, Istvan's father's strategy succeeded. He reminded the king that if the countess was guilty, then the king's debts could be written off, and he provoked the countess' children to divide up the countess' property as soon as possible, and the biggest winner in the end was He himself became the most powerful minister in the court. And his son is just like a show, always saying that he loves her, always loves her, but it's really not love, dear, don't pour dirty water on pure love.
