Perhaps it is to set off Gertrude's transformation from a dream-seeking girl to an explorer. This first love is particularly beautiful, riding horses, reading poems, exchanging tokens, taking her to the cliffs she frequents The tower watched the vultures pecking at the carcass. After parting, like the ending of any aristocratic lady falling in love with a destitute young man, Gertrude waited for the news of his lover's death.
Then Gertrude came back to the desert to travel, explore, and record the lives of the local people. In the opening scene, a line of camels roamed the boundless desert. The dusty woman sat on the back of the camel, and the wind and sand blurred her face. When she stopped to rest, there were always two identical cups of tea on the table in front of her.
She couldn't forget, and she couldn't stop.
Gertrude walked through the desert, passed by different tribes, saw all kinds of people and different lifestyles, she regained the ability to love someone again, but there was no way to stop her wandering steps. Once you open your wings like an eagle and see how big the world is, it is extremely difficult to go back to being a chaffinch under the low eaves.
The second man she fell in love with died on the battlefield, and then Gertrude was never married. Her life was magnificent, but she never found happiness. The people she loved left in a tragic way, making her lose her right. Faith in love is like the glass she broke when she first heard the news.
Then came Gertrude, a diplomat who met high-ranking Muslim officials in Cairo, Basra and Baghdad, serving as a bridge between the British Empire and the Middle East.
The two turning points in the film, from a girl to an explorer, from an explorer to a diplomat, especially Gertrude's sudden change from a resisting attitude to a government official, the explanation is somewhat vague, how she became the queen of the desert, certainly not just Riding a camel for a while, fortunately, Nicole's beauty and smile are like a girl's for ten years, and she almost thought it was a film from a few years ago.
At the end of the story, the prince of Arabia asked her why she liked his country and people so much, and Gertrude said that it was because Atul's mother, her servant, said something... Sometimes I really can't understand the logic of foreigners.
There are many poems about love, but love is difficult to describe. Love for a land and people may be because of love itself.
