She doesn't belong to that era

In fact, I decided to watch this movie because I was watching Penélope Cruz, but since the beginning of the movie, I couldn't keep my eyes off Charlize Theron. I don't know why, her beauty is always mixed with naughty, pure, sexy and glamorous flavors, those contradictory beautiful temperaments are so just right and perfectly combined in one person, she is one of the only people I have ever seen. One of the very few movie stars.

Her eyes are natural and pure, and her life attitude is so straightforward and arbitrary experience, to walk. How lucky Guy is to have such a woman in company. But even he, who was so close to her, didn't fully understand her. In the days after he returned to Paris, he saw her in the company of a German officer, thinking that it was all like all her previous "games", that she was only concerned with maintaining the original standard of living and not the world other things above. So it was also sad, why even he couldn't stand by her side when others said that to her, and couldn't understand the feelings in her heart. He always regarded her as an ignorant child, but he didn't know that he had already burdened her with too much.

As early as after reading the beautiful legend of Sicily, I had a vague worry about the ending. If Malèna is forced to live, then Gilda has never betrayed the real beauty in her heart. She is kind, brave, romantic, and casual, but her nature naturally radiates, and she is increasingly showing a natural attraction. Some people may think that giving her a strong sense of responsibility in the second half of the film that is not commensurate with the childishness in the first half of the film is a foreshadowing or a deliberate arrangement for the film to highlight the cruelty of the ending, but if you see Gilda's love for Guy and Mia makes sense again. She was originally a woman who was born for love, and changed for the person she loved, but in fact, what changed was only her behavior, not her attitude. A person who is willing to love and try to experience, I don't believe she can live in her own world with certainty.

Seeing the ending, I regret that I watched the last forty minutes this morning. She was so amazingly beautiful, but she was born in such an era. She went through and endured a lot that shouldn't have been imposed on her, but she wasn't really understood until the end. How sad.

    The ending part is good, plus one star for Charlize's acting. slightly longer. The translation names are bloody. ps, eh? After watching so many TK films, why don't you feel familiar at all? ! People are still handsome!

    After all, we can't survive alone... PS: Theron is really amazing. I just saw her self-destructing image two days ago as the devil who won the award and won the soft hand. I can't accept such a big gap Penelope The Spanish wild girl can't cover her brilliance, but objectively speaking, maybe it's because Penelope is not tall, so she's a bit petite in comparison...
