Obviously, the other girl from the Boleyn family is a literal translation, and the other three are Chinese film titles based on the content of the film. Among them, I like the name Beauty Mind the most, which fully reflects the creative realm of Xindaya. The beauty of artistic conception is perfectly unified with the classical beauty shown in the film.
The scenes of the whole film are dignified, the expression techniques are succinct, the actors' performances are full of tension, the storyline is fascinating, and the ending makes people only sigh.
At the beginning of the film is a piece of yellow grass. Three children are happily chasing and playing on the grass. A man and a woman are talking at the same time, and they appear in the picture. They are the parents of the children. The father said that "every family can improve their family status by marrying a daughter", he decided to marry the second daughter Mary to the son of a businessman who asked the eldest daughter Ann, because Ann is an ambitious girl and should marry a more powerful one. Nobles bring more power, status and glory to the family. The different evaluations of the two daughters by the father foreshadow the possible development of the storyline.
A few years later, Mary was newly married. His uncle brought news that the queen was no longer able to give birth to a male heir for the king. He and his father used their brains to dedicate their eldest daughter Ann to the king. Under the careful arrangement of my uncle, the king came. However, due to An's stubborn character, the king fell from the horse during the hunting process, which hurt the self-esteem of men and lost this precious opportunity. At this moment, Mary was arranged to take care of the wounded king. The first moment he woke up and opened his eyes, he saw a gentle and peaceful blonde and beautiful woman. At that moment, the heart of the man was moved.
Speaking of the story, I can't help but talk about the director's skill in casting. The two leading ladies, Ann and Mary, are played by Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson, two of the brightest and most talented actresses in cinema today. , with their own different looks. Natalie Portman's satin-like long chestnut hair, a wide and full forehead, straight long eyebrows slanted into the temples, thin lips, moderately sexy and stylish, and a clear jawline, perfectly interpreting the rebellious character of her character. Uninhibited, full of self-confidence, is a powerful beauty with extraordinary ambition and unyielding belief; while Scarlett Johansson has a soft blonde color, pink and white skin, beautiful facial contours, pale gold With curved eyebrows, big eyes like a deer, and sensual lips that seem to be swollen by kisses, she always has such a peaceful and indifferent expression, such a tender and seductive and sexy beautiful woman, I see especially pity.
Two different types of beauty correspond to two different types of characters and fates. The success of the director's casting has laid the foundation for the success of the role. The world has almost established a woman's appearance, with blonde hair corresponding to femininity and sexy stunners, and dark hair color corresponding to rational, calm, and strong women. Perhaps, the casting angle of the film also expresses such a profound meaning from another aspect, that is, in the world of men, the weapons that women can use are nothing but beauty and sexiness, as well as the unique survival of women hidden under them. wisdom.
And Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson perfectly interpret the two girls of the Pauline family with their irresistible beauty and acting skills, like two parts of a complete role.
Going back to the story of the film, Henry VIII may have the feeling of seeing an angel when he saw Mary on the wounded bed. He then ordered the Pauline family to be brought back to the court, with Mary's husband serving as his bodyguard, making Mary the queen's nominal maid, in fact her public mistress. Under the common betrayal of her uncle, father, and husband, Mary walked a path that went against her wishes amid Ann's jealousy.
On the first night Henry and Mary spent together, the tenderness in the camera, the tone of voice, and the eyes staring at each other made me think that there was love between them.
However, as the film unfolded, I realized I was wrong. There is love, only Mary. Henry, does not understand love. Like many powerful men throughout the ages, he does not understand love, but only knows how to possess and conquer, plunder and abandon.
Mary fell in love with the man she thought knew her, perhaps, Henry knew Mary, because Mary was so simple, so simple, you can praise such purity, like praising an angel, but for a man, it is only as beautiful as Angels, or pure like angels, do not hold their hearts for long, because men, with half-animal habits and a demonic sense of morality.
When Mary enjoyed the nourishment of love and the favor of the king, Ann faced the fate of being exiled from the country. Her heart was full of resentment. She thought it was her sister who seduced the king. At that time, she did not really understand men. And their mother, a noblewoman from a wealthy family who sees through the unreliable splendor and wealth of the upper class, wisely taught her before she was exiled to the French Queen's Palace, "Pay more attention to the women in other palaces. How does Bing take anything from men, not by beating her chest... but to convince men that they are the real masters, and this is the art of women." It was these words that made her wake up.
Soon, Mary found out that she was pregnant. Her surprise, the joy of the king, and the silence of the queen. The family was excited by the king's grant of a title mansion because of his daughter's favor, but because his father wanted to continue his relationship with the king, he forced his son George to marry him. The most hated woman became heavy, and each son and daughter more or less felt the price of clinging to the high branch. However, only the mother could clearly see that all the glory, wealth, honor, and status of the king came and went quickly.
Mary was quarantined for a miscarriage due to unstable fetal gas and could no longer have sex with the king. The family was worried about this, so Ann was recalled, and she was given the task of drawing the king's attention back to Mary. And the fact is really disappointing. The king seems to have forgotten the tenderness he once had for Mary, and rarely visits Mary who is locked in a dark room. Seeing this, I couldn't help but sigh deeply, how ruthless the king is, and how stupid and unfortunate the woman who falls in love with the king is.
And Ann, such a proud woman, was recalled for her sister only after she first tasted setbacks in a man. This made her feel so embarrassed. I believe that at this time, Ann's heart was not only yearning for power and status. It was the desire to conquer a man who had neglected her. She wanted to prove by conquering this man that he, they, were all wrong at the beginning.
Sure enough, after returning to the English court, Ann managed to attract the attention of Henry VIII. and succeeded in elevating that attention to curiosity. And this kind of curiosity between the opposite sex can easily be further transformed into good feelings or even love. For Henry VIII, Ann appeared from the sky with a special charm of independence, strength and self-confidence, which was extremely dazzling, and he was deeply attracted. But after he expressed his admiration to Ann, he was unexpectedly rejected by Ann, no matter how precious the gift was returned without hesitation. This woman, who had always wanted to be favored by him in the past, could now pass him by without squinting. This feeling of being despised, ignored and rejected made him more and more insane.
Perhaps, people have such a cheap nature, just like Zhang Ailing's "Red Rose and White Rose" wrote, what you can't get is always good, the more you can't get what you want, the more you miss it, and even a little love and love. Appreciation transpires into a frenzy of love in anticipation.
When Henry couldn't bear the unbearable pain any longer and found Ann to express his love, Ann's performance made Henry think that Ann was the same as himself, but because of Mary, he arrogantly said that he had already loved Mary. Good enough, now should be a little better with Ann. As soon as these words are spoken, I believe that it will make countless moviegoers feel chills. The king, or in other words, how easily a man's heart can change and how quickly it becomes. The love of the new and the old is so utterly unpalatable that it makes us so happy when Ann avoids Henry's kiss and closes the door with a smug smile on his face. Yes, it's a feeling of comfort.
Henry VIII didn't know what true love was, he didn't have the ability to love, this was his sorrow. Because he has seen a lot of flattery with ulterior motives, he has taken this as a matter of course. When love becomes something that can be exchanged for equal value, it is not love anymore.
However, I secretly thought that maybe he could feel some love in Ann and Mary, or that he had experienced different aspects of love in both of them. What Mary gave him was worship, tenderness, devotion, purposeless, pure love, Ann brought him the unpredictable, unpredictable, uncontrollable excitement and wildness in love, and let him enjoy the pain and joy of chasing in the conquered .
When Mary gave birth to a boy, Henry chose Ann without hesitation in the face of the two sisters. Perhaps, at that time, he thought he had chosen his love. However, in my opinion, he just chose the red rose that has not been obtained. Mary was expelled back to her hometown with her child in her arms. After a long and lonely pregnancy and the great pain of being abandoned immediately after giving birth, her eyes became more and more calm, and she became more aware of this man's true inner self.
Just when Ann almost succeeded in getting what she wanted - the queen's seat, an accident happened. Someone reported to the king that she had married a nobleman privately. The king, in anger, recalled Mary to seek the truth from her. He trusted Mary and would not deceive him for the family's ambitions. Unfortunately, he didn't see it. Of course, Mary would not deceive him for the benefit of the family, but after being deeply disappointed with men and love, she stood by her sister's side more closely because of her indelible blood. She forgave Ann's betrayal when she realized how Ann was hurt. What she knew more at this moment was that the feelings between sisters were far more precious and reliable than the feelings a king could give.
An Ruwan wore the crown of the Queen of England. Although she was cursed, she was satisfied. And the king lost a lot because of this, and being forced to force his wife to step down may make him unable to be as peaceful as he looks on the outside, but the break with the Holy See made the king secretly regret his impulse for a woman in his heart. Although the things that have been done are irreversible, these have deeply affected Henry VIII's feelings and relationship with Ann.
After the birth of a girl, the fissure became apparent. Ann's vague unease broke out after a miscarriage. She was afraid that Henry would turn around and leave after knowing it, and even wanted to borrow seeds from her own brother George. Sadly, although they gave up at the last minute, they were seen by George's wife and tipped off to Henry VIII.
The king believed it almost immediately, which made one wonder if he really believed his wife would do such an indecent thing, or was he just waiting for a reason, an excuse? Perhaps, these are no longer important. Because, everything has proved, the mother's view of the king's nature, glory and wealth. Yes, everything comes from here and also from here.
Although, Mary begged the king and got his promise, as long as you care, I will not destroy it.
However, Henry VIII once again proved to Mary and the world how untrustworthy a man he was. In the end, Ann did not escape being beheaded. But fate seems to have played a joke on everyone. These court ladies and nobles who are fighting to get the king's male heir, did not expect that the girl Ann left behind broke their shackles and became the British history. The first queen, with a strength that surpassed her mother's, ruled Britain for half a century.
Perhaps, we will sigh. If I knew this earlier, why should it be in the first place.
However, who can say, if Ann really knew the result earlier and didn't do something, would history still be like this?
History cannot assume, and none of us can answer this question.
