pagan angel

Because I was forced to disconnect from the Internet for a week, I went to the supermarket on sale to find this dv, just because the starring Natalie is my favorite actress, I bought it and prepared to be boring and boring to pass the time. Unexpectedly, the director's rhythm is very good, and there is no sleepiness at all.
Innes, played by Natalie, is a devout but somewhat young, harmless little rebel, the daughter of a wealthy businessman. Her beauty is the source of her misfortune. She may be too beautiful and ostentatious. Get involved in a wrongful inquisition. He spent fifteen years in a dark prison. The director switched to 15 years later without any pity, and did not explain without any simplicity and cruelty to tell you that it was such a silent 15 years. Innes was released from prison when Napoleon liberated Rome and overthrew the Pope. When she entered, she was still a peerless beauty like a flower and jade, and when she came out, she was already an ugly woman with a unkempt face and confusion. The director doesn't even give you the feeling of how a great beauty is in such a field now. She explained that her whole family was slaughtered. Don't let you lament the cruelty of fate. I'll give you a big surprise right away The hypocritical priest who raped Innes in prison in the name of prayer The priest who fled France as a result of Innes's father's revenge is now a Napoleon supporter to pronounce the sentence as a representative of the trial The Pope is guilty. Innes's life has no dreams, no family, no beauty, no youth, no everything, only fifteen years of endless torture brought about by the injustices of the infidels. Her only hope at this time is to find her daughter. She begged him to find her daughter together. He found his daughter, now a cheap call girl. She has the peerless beauty of her mother when she was young, but she flirts with her biological father frivolously. He didn't even have time to explain a word to her and she ran away.
It's an ironic story in itself. The ending is that Feng Shui turns Spain back to power and the Pope resets and begins the trial of the traitor. The story ends with the daughter of a prostitute leaning on the arm of a young officer, watching her father be guillotined and playful indifferently. Laughing and asking what would happen to this man Her father eventually refused to plead guilty and was hanged In the last moments someone excitedly called his name was Innes who had gone mad She smiled at him in the crowd It is sincere and simple, even worshipping, so the death row inmates die with a smile at the last moment of their lives.
The last shot is that the painter who witnessed the whole tragedy followed Innes and Innes was holding the hand of the death row prisoner all the way, and occasionally bowed his head and kissed those cold hands, as if this man was not the one who hurt him in the first place, as if she did not She didn't feel that her life was a complete tragedy. She didn't have the awareness to think that she could have been a rich family daughter who lived a life of comfort and food, married a good life and raised children. She has been unable to do these normal assumptions. For her, life is still, at the moment when she is holding these cold hands.
I saw her smiling contentedly, as beautiful as an angel in the sun. Perhaps this was the only beautiful face the man had searched for in the hostile eyes of the crowd. At that time I believe he understood the painter's words, Innes is an angel, and she deserves to be fulfilled by all her demands. Because she is pure and has no requirements.

    The part about religion is fascinating, it's just that grand but rotten. But even from the perspective of Goya, it is impossible for someone who painted such a powerful work to be so cowardly and mediocre. Portman is a much better psychopath than Keira Knightley. There is a fire in the dark night, and the end credits are beautiful.

    Goya's part is too rushed...poor generation of masters robbed of his style by heavy history

Goya's Ghosts quotes

  • Tomás Bilbatúa: [reading from a freshly prepared document] I, Lorenzo Casamares, hereby confess, that contrary to my human appearance, I am in fact, the bastard son of a chimpanzee and an orangutan, and I have schemed to join the church, in order to do harm to the holy office.

    Tomás Bilbatúa: [places the parchment and quill in front of Lorenzo, then sits down] Sign it.

  • Inés: [model pointing at defaced portrait] Why doesn't that painting have a face?

    Goya: Because he is a ghost.

    Inés: No, he is not.

    Goya: Have you ever seen a ghost?

    Inés: No. But I have seen a witch.

    Goya: Oh, did you?

    Inés: Yes, but she had a face.

    Goya: So what did she look like?

    Inés: She was... all bent and creepy, and she...

    [whispers:]

    Inés: stank.

    [makes disparaging sound]

    Goya: That's interesting, because the witch that I know, she's... she's young, very lovely, and she smells of jasmine.

    Inés: [smiles] She does?

    Goya: She does. And I'm working on her portrait... right now.

    Inés: [smiles as it dawns on her what he means] I'm no witch!

    Goya: [chuckles] How do you know?
