Uncertainty!

Everyone's theme is different, especially when I look at Orlando, which is very abstract. My feeling when I saw it: a kind of uncertainty, the uncertainty comes from the Russian princess' attitude towards Orlando: she can be ambiguous with Orlando one second, and the next one. Seconds to seduce others. From Orlando himself, one moment seeing the princess making out with someone, another moment realizing it was just an illusion. From his own mood, "there is but an ice blade between happiness and sadness". . . It's like the shaky feeling of ice floes standing on the river. After that, the plot is even more bizarre. After Orlando was blessed with immortality, he mingled with poets, went to the Middle East as an ambassador, and returned from male to female. Proposing marriage, crossing the flower wall and arriving 400 years later, fell in love with her horseman at first sight, gave birth to a small life, and went straight to the future. This bizarre process makes people feel that everything is uncertain, and the people in the play treat it. It doesn't matter Attitude is a sense of dissociation, but also makes people remain calm.
Of course, the film is so rich in content that it makes me feel like it's not something someone like me can handle when watching it.
