In the film, the queen abandons the throne and the country and rushes to the port to meet her lover who is as early as possible, but in the end only the remains of the lover who died in the duel.
I was not in that era, and I couldn't understand the chivalry and dueling culture at all. In my eyes, duel is really a savage and meaningless existence. Under the banner of safeguarding reputation, dignity, and love, a very rude, vain, and life-paying method is used to solve the opponent. Every duel provoked because of trivialities or inexplicable self-esteem, the outcome is likely to be the death of at least one person. In 8,000 duels, at least 4,000 people died, and this kind of duel that can be caused by drinking or rubbing a car is really speechless. In the film, the heroine abandons her country and her people, desperately yearning for their future, while the hero ignores the agreed future with the heroine, irrationally analyzes the possibility of victory in a duel with others, and hastily I gave my life in one breath, what is this? Does the hero really recognize love and responsibility? The tragedy of the ending is like a gust of wind. It doesn't know where it came from, and it can't be caught by blowing it. And the second man incited rumors everywhere, causing harm to the country and the queen's safety, but did not convict at all. What is this?
Garbo is as beautiful as ever. She played a brave, patriotic and patriotic queen Christina, who succeeded the king after her father died in battle. She loves peace, science and art, and she also loves to get up early to fight for a little bit of spare time to study. She has free thinking and is unwilling to be bound. She is unwilling to marry at will. She can't even imagine love or even believe in love, but in the end, In a tavern, being attracted by Charles's rich insights and unique conversations led to the release of depressed love. Garbo's interpretation is a majestic, unique, insightful, and politically capable queen with masculinity, which is different from the princess who innocently yearned for the outside world in "Roman Holiday" by Hepburn. What Christina desires is the freedom to control her life. But in the end, the Roman princess chose her responsibility and her people, and the Queen of Sweden rushed to love.
Their choices cannot be compared, but when the two are both tragic endings, the Roman princess made a love tragedy for responsibility and great love, but the Queen of Sweden caused a love tragedy because the male protagonist died in a duel... .. This really makes a big gap in the theme of the whole film.
Garbo fully demonstrated her natural and otherworldly temperament. Her face always has a charming and unpredictable look. Whether it is men's or women's Christina, her handsome face is always full of heroism, which gives her an already beautiful face. It is covered with a veil of mystery, which adds a bit of illusion of reality and illusion, and makes people feel that she is both in reality and in imagination.
