Ten years later, Diana's shadow is still there, but the human feelings are warm and cold, and the once inexplicable sadness has long since passed away. People are willing to be moved by a wonderful turn and sigh for a vague back, but illogically, they don't care about the true colors of life at all. What can we learn about Diana's heart?
Behind that event destined to become legendary, people have long overlooked Queen Elizabeth II, a man in his 70s at the time. Ten years later, a film tries to get into the heart of the old man known as the Queen at that sensitive moment. At this time, ten years after the death of Concubine Diana, such an arrangement seems to be the will of God after reflection, and it is also a tribute worthy of respect.
No matter how noble or poor, everyone should have their own dignity, except for the nouveau riche. Just because she is the queen, the connection of human nature cannot be erased. The queen in the movie must first defend the dignity of the monarchy, and her indifferent opening is a normal thing. The conversation between the master and the servant before the new Prime Minister Tony Blair's visit was very interesting.
Waiter: Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is here.
Queen: It's a prospective prime minister. I haven't appointed one yet.
This back-and-forth answer shows the queen's love and helplessness for dignity. As for rights, it is already a thing of the past. To maintain the only dignity of the royal family, in the face of the opposition of 1/4 of the people to the constitutional monarchy, the helpless persistence of the queen who has been in power for more than 40 years is at least worthy of the respect of those who clamor to overthrow the monarch.
In the face of Diana's death, the Queen's troubles were easily ignored. This woman who disturbed the order of the royal family and won everyone's love on the stage is not the royal family. Diana was framed from the start as a weak, royally oppressed, deceived Cinderella by her husband, while the Queen could only play the ruthless, ruthless wolf-grandmother.
How insincere is this kind of role confrontation? The Queen's wishful thinking believes that her people can at least do justice to a war between two women: who's right, who's wrong, or why. However, from the beginning, it was doomed that the Queen could only be the loser in this war. Her speech to Blair is one of the most moving in the film:
Do you think I'm going to leave my two motherless children for a funeral? No one knows the British better and trusts their wisdom and judgment better than I do. They will definitely put aside the sadness created by these media and choose to grieve and mourn silently. Being unassuming and dignified is the way our nation does things, and it's why we win the respect of the world.
However, the world has changed after all, and people are more fond of exaggerated emotions and sensational performances. The high-sounding reason was completely denied. She was as noble as a queen, but she couldn't stick to her will. She just wanted to keep her dignity through silence. However not allowed.
The whole moment of deliberate calm was shattered when the Queen came out to visit the crowd mourning Diana. When the queen turned her head, the sadness on her face had to be transformed into a kind smile. She approached a little girl holding flowers and offered to help her deliver the flowers to the memorial place. The girl timidly refused, and the queen's heart became cold in an instant. freezing point. Then the girl said, this is for you.
This is the only sensational part of the whole film, not at the end, but a clever handling. We, who were still defending the Queen's excuse and reluctantly smiling, were completely defeated by our emotions. At that moment, the queen held flowers in her hands, her expression was calm, and she walked past the paying tribute, which was better than Diana's last weird look back in the movie.
Ten years later, people's emotions have gone from the initial frenzy to the tranquility of reflection. Diana's charm is still there, and the queen is ten years older. Ten years of precipitation is just right, neither forgetting nor impulsive. In the mountain stream, the queen whose car broke down silently twitched her back to the camera, and then she saw the most beautiful stag, and then saw the death of the stag. Life flows between hope and disappointment, and more than enough to be moved, is to endure.
