Comédie, Tragique?

Comedy or tragedy.

A quick review for {Glorious Times}. A very British movie. The script is unbelievably smooth, and it's almost in my top ten overall. The performance of the actors is really strong. However, it is a pity that it is not popular. I hope that after reading this short review, you will want to take a look.

【Let's marry】

Such an ordinary and ordinary clue was placed in the vanity fair of the 20th-century British drunkards, which influenced the self-interest and hypocrisy, strangeness and estrangement, flattery and camouflage among the upper-class British society, one by one.

Under the background of gorgeous scenes and artworks, the glitzy world is fully displayed, and under the shell of extravagant decorations and comedy, there is the same sadness as the British society at that time. In this world where interests come first, only money is the rope that leads the destiny.

In this age, their care is full of lies, and their flattery is disgusting; who knows how much evil is in goodness, how much hypocrisy is beneath sincerity, and countless parties cover up countless idle sorrows, Under the bright and beautiful body, there are so many lonely souls covered with bruises.

{I'm sincerely apolog...the hell of you all.} This is the little reporter (James Mcavoy) who has been suppressed to the extreme, and after seeing all the vain masks, he is powerless to these disguised, disgusting After the "joy" touched the corners of the mouth again, the final accusation against the anger and madness in this world. He reported what he had seen and heard with resentment, and recklessly reduced the upper class to an unbearable and dirty society, and he thought it was a happy counterattack. The camera moves up, and the photo of the lover whom he loved when he was a child, who is also the one who has just been humiliated by his vicious words, comes into view, and then moves again, it is a young teenager leaning on the lawn with a scroll in his hand. The gas was getting thicker, and there was a tired choke from the stove. The innocence and beauty just slipped away, and in the exuberant news copy, there was only endless sadness left.

In just a few seconds, the sorrow that runs through the character's life is presented by James with endless aftertaste, but even so vivid, in this huge world, the struggle of personal destiny seems so pale.

With dazzling flip shots, the car spins endlessly. People living in gorgeous cages, learning to be familiar with all the buttons in the car, want to be the controllers of the current situation, and become the prestige people that attract everyone's attention. In this bottomless quagmire, it sinks deeper and deeper.

This is not the so-called glorious years, the irony has already arrived at customs. {Glorious Years? I can tell at a glance that this is nasty}

But no matter where you are, there are always souls who pursue the truth and dreams, are unwilling to fate, dedicate themselves to love or faith, fight against the force majeure of the world, and build the ultimate monument of their own spirit, and they go on and on and on stage. A moving and colorful movement.

Flowers have a re-opening day, and people are no longer young.

    "The coquettish young people and the survivors of the old society have formed an anxious alliance. This is the so-called 20th century full of anxiety, fear and comics." I was wondering how the so-called traditional social season in the UK could continue into World War II? Now I understand that the party has long been not the elegant and leisurely fun of Jane Austen's country manor, but a more French-style drunkenness. I like the naming of bright young things. Their superior background makes them never have to face the cruelty of real life, so despite their selfishness and vanity, they generally retain their dramatic innocence and cuteness. Love the gas tank suicide in the humble house, the bench race car that diverted to the country lane, and the last goth ball in the hospital, really, English literature is my thing! PS really think 34005 pounds is a bit expensive~

    Looking at the front, I only feel that it is exaggerated, flirtatious, and decadent, and the voice is beautiful and the lines are too fast. After getting better, I almost cried in several scenes, the sense of tragedy hidden in the absurdity, the sense of fate that the building is about to fall... The supporting characters are all too bright and too young, but the protagonist looks like Hugh Laurie at some moments what's going on?
