If I really want to say the last two words, I can only say that I don’t think Edward Norton is suitable for the role of Walter Fane. Although the silence is enough, and the acting can be regarded as meticulous, I always feel that there is a lack of British gentleman temperament. If I had to choose, I would look for Ralph Fiennes to play Walter. The British restraint, depression and elegance are revealed from the bottom of my heart and do not need to be deliberately created. However, there is a danger in finding Ralph Fiennes, that is, Kitty did not fall in love with him, and ran to love the big man Charlie Townsend, it is too unbelievable...
Although the story is not new, there are actually a lot of inner dramas that can be discovered. , especially in terms of the heroine, but now it seems to have shifted its focus to the hero, making it seem as if it is completing the task of telling the story. Kitty told Waddington that women don't fall in love with a man just because he is of good character, but in the end why she fell in love with Walter, there is no other convincing reason, at least I don't particularly see it.
I don't quite understand the motive of Dr. Walter Fane taking Kitty to the epidemic area. While watching this film, I was chasing ER on Pearl TV, and I happened to see two episodes about Dr Carter in Darfur, Sudan. The aid thing has a little association. Dr Carter has been working in Darfur for a long time, but due to the shortage of manpower, he needs to find someone for help. At first, he wanted Dr. Luca Kovac, who has work experience in Africa, to help, but Luca's girlfriend happened to be pregnant, and he didn't want to. He left at this time, so Luca sent another doctor. Dr. Fane, by contrast, is not a clinician, doing research to the extent that it is imperative to go, and to take his wife with him. Perhaps, as he said to Kitty about the role of the monastery in China, everyone has their own reasons for being here. As for whether the real reason is consistent with the apparent reason, I am afraid that only he himself knows.
In the end, I am not afraid to be flattered. The mediocrity of "The Veil" may have a lot to do with the supporting roles. Except for Huang Qiusheng's head Yu who is slightly brilliant, Charlie Townsend and the Englishman Waddington are not lost, the rest of the Chinese The actors are rather disappointing. Song Qing, a soldier played by Feng Li, is as dumb as the idiot in "Peacock", and the doctor played by Xia Yu is a cameo except for the scene where he poured alcohol and handed it to Walter and said "Martini". dragon set. As for Lu Yan, I didn't expect her to speak a single Chinese line in a bad way.
