A very European-style biographical film, well-made and rigorously composed, war scenes, dilapidated villages, and splendid mansions are presented one after another. Perhaps he himself was just like a puppet. He was cheated by his cousins and drove him out of the house. After joining the English army, he was brave and resourceful because of his friendship with upright officers. After the officer died, he found an opportunity to escape and was forced to join the Prussian army. As a double spy, he took refuge in the Irish aristocracy (upstart) who was blessed by the Queen of Austria, and thus embarked on the road of making a fortune by cheating gambling cards. Since then, this character has gradually become obscene, marrying Mrs. Lyndon and embezzling property, and his mother has also changed from a peasant woman living in her brother's house to a noblewoman, encouraging her son to buy a title.
The peak of life is the beginning of the fall of life. Maybe such a legend is the product of being collaged by all kinds of people. He has also earned light through his own force and cleverness, but his life is not really controlled by him. When he duel with a gun again, his fate was closed with the duel in his youth, and he could never turn over again.
