A Very English Scandal
Tsk tsk, from the title to the poster, the words "I am a British drama" are written all over the face .
In form, it is also the three episodes that the BBC loves to do .
style? Not to mention, see for yourself.
The plot is a bit old-fashioned at first glance:
An old man in the political arena.
As soon as it was released into political dramas such as "House of Cards" and "Yes, the Prime Minister", a story that could be told in a few words as a joke was expanded into a mini-series, which is naturally unique. .
What's unique about this story is that the two who ripped the X were men!
Yes, it's rotten country.
Not only that, but they also invited several big names that they haven't seen for a long time, all of them are British gems that can make fans scream for 15 seconds .
A generation of British lovers
getting greasy
If you go back 30 years, this is a peerless beauty that hangs all the fresh British meat.
Lovely blue drooping eyes, unrivaled three-quarter profile, and soul-sucking toothy smile...
Coupled with the endless Oxford accent, soft curly hair, and the blessing of romantic characters...
Hugh Grant , this man, used to be so nice to see people ignore everything.
Ignore his non-classical acting talent...
The Best Actor in Venice, the British Academy Awards, the American Golden Globe Awards...
Ignore his outspoken, badly arrogant bad temper...
Actors who have often complained about cooperating, also satirized the messiness and poverty in Britain, and owed their mouths to the fact that they once threw cakes and fought with their agents...
Ignore his flirtatious, scandalous scum...
The stunner in the group photo on the left is one of his girlfriends; the one on the right is a prostitute who was caught.
You see, handsome can do whatever they want .
In my impression of Xiaoying, Hugh Grant has always been the image of a chic and suave British lover.
So much so that when I saw him appear in "Paddington Bear 2" and "The Queen of Out-of-tune", with that fat folded face that could catch flies, I was heartbroken!
Uncle who are you?
Can we take care of it?
Looking at the current Hugh Grant, you can never imagine that he is only 58 years old this year !
Uncle Hugh, who hasn't acted in a TV drama for 25 years, actually played an all- male, greasy and sinister old man in "British Scandal" this time!
Omg! How can you see Hugh Grant in such a powerful role in your lifetime?
It is said that he was a straight man who had to go out and vomit when he filmed the same-sex kiss scene !
This time , the kiss scene, the bed scene, and the jerking off scene are all in battle, can it be considered that they have finally been corrupted?
The greasy uncle, named Jeremy Thorpe , is the leader of the British Liberal Party.
My favorite thing to do is to chat with my colleagues about meat jokes during lunch time, calling myself an 8-point bend and a 2-point straight .
As soon as I saw the fresh and clean body, I almost drooled and rushed to eat and wipe it clean.
These eyes can become so obscene and erotic.
"Hook up and start eating, get rid of it after eating, and go to the next goal" is the basic routine of this old villain.
However, goose, who often walks by the river can never get wet shoes!
One day, Uncle Thorpe accidentally hooked a dog skin plaster - Norman Joshiff .
The young man was unwilling to be toyed with, and directly stabbed this incestuous relationship to the police station and Thorpe's mother (this trick is cruel).
The entire police station was stunned!
For Thorpe, who has a bright future and is about to become the youngest leader of a political party, and who has tricked a silly girl into marrying and having children to maintain his image, this is like a devastating nuclear bomb.
In order to quell the incident before Norman is announced to the public, Thorpe, the old ginger, is particularly ruthless.
Can't solve the problem? Then get rid of the person who asked the question.
I have to say that Hugh Grant's old appearance does not affect his acting skills, and even against the background of the pleats, this character looks extraordinarily cunning and cunning.
It's a pity that this dog skin plaster that can't be thrown off is not a fuel-efficient lamp!
a stage nerd
Become enchanting little black rabbit
The person who was hooked up was Ben Whishaw .
When he debuted, he worked with "Zhan Yimei" James McAvoy and "Tang Lao Wet" Tom Hardy , and was called the three most promising British stars.
Now Yimei is bald and stronger, and her strength and works are obvious to all.
The handsome man soup is old and wet, and he is so mixed up that he can be fascinated by people without showing his face.
And this teacher, why does it feel that there is no movement?
That's because Ben Whishaw doesn't like the Hollywood vibe and prefers to be active on the local theatrical scene.
Inexplicable Xiaohong's characters are all soy sauce, such as Dr. Q in the 007 series, the musician in "Cloud Atlas"...
Once you take the lead role seriously, this teacher will definitely make you unforgettable!
The famous work, the shocking perverted film "Perfume" , he played a murderer who was addicted to killing girls and made perfume.
Killing in order to preserve beauty, betrayal in order to preserve beauty, and finally suicide in order to destroy beauty.
At first glance, it looks like a pervert, but this teacher has shown a depth that is difficult to judge.
Judging from his clear and clean eyes, taciturn paranoia, innate ability, and shocking behavior.
It's hard for you to define whether he's a vile criminal, or an intoxicated genius? Is it a devil who commits evil, or an angel who pursues beauty? An artist favored by God, or an outcast freak?
In addition, he has also acted as a frivolous and unrestrained rich child (the new version of "After the Wind and Rain in the Hometown"), and played a stubborn and righteous radio reporter ("Show Moment").
He played the gloomy Richard II (the first episode of the "Empty Crown" series) and played the melancholy and elegant poet Keats ("Bright Star").
This time, the fresh meat brother played in "British Scandal" is also not a thin paper person.
As soon as he appeared on the stage, it was a seductive physical play , clean and innocent, secretly seducing the other party's heart.
The first time he had a sex scene with the old Youtiao, he stared timidly at the can of lubricating oil, afraid and aggrieved. He didn't resist the old man's offensive and burst into tears.
In the early days of Jinwu Zangjiao, he was happy and happy, and it was hard to believe that a man in his 30s with crow's feet could actually act out the sweet and innocent love of a girl in love.
In the later period of Jinwu Zangjiao, he was decadent and angry, and rushed to the police station to surrender himself in a fit of anger, but after reporting the case, he felt lost, helpless, and lost.
Do you think this is an immature, pitiful little white rabbit?
Don't be fooled by appearances! In fact, he is a brave, resourceful, and enchanting flower!
When reporting the case at the police station, he proudly threw out a dozen love letters, but carefully selected only two of them and handed them over to the police.
He also hooked up with girls (yes! girls!) when he was away from home and used it to become a model.
A few days later, he was addicted to the rotten bar life, lost his modeling job, and found the old fritters Thorpe again.
You see, these two are not serious people, nor are they soft persimmons that are easy to pinch.
An ambitious, a fragile scheming, can be considered evenly matched.
With Norman telling Thorpe's wife about the scandal, how will this man-to-man slapstick come to an end?
We will wait and see.
Two choreographers Dana
"British Scandal" initially attracted Xiaoying, not the two powerful actors on the stage, but the two choreographers and directors behind the scenes.
The screenwriter, Russell T. Davis , referred to as RTD, you may not be familiar with the name.
But when it comes to the famous British longevity national drama "Doctor Hu" and "Doctor Who" , you must have heard a little.
This sci-fi drama, which started in 1963, has aired more than 800 episodes so far.
How classic is it? A lot of British actors take pride in putting soy sauce in it!
In fact, this BBC TV series was suspended in 1989 and did not restart until 2005.
It is RTDs that have brought this 16-year-old press-box classic back to life .
He spent five years as executive producer, program producer and writer-in-chief of the new Doctor Who, writing 31 full-length episodes and 3 mini-episodes, before retiring and giving up his seat to another British screenwriter. Take -- Magic ("Sherlock" screenwriter).
Such a great take, naturally has two brushes.
Compared with Magical's open-mindedness, Xiaoying actually prefers RTD's delicate and steady screenwriting style.
He is good at creating a vivid and full character image, and then let the character move forward with the plot, using gentle and relaxed brushstrokes to expose the deep black and white dilemma of human nature.
The talent of RTD is not only reflected in the characterization, but also in the plot line.
For example, in "British Scandal", Norman's understatement of taking medicine laid the groundwork for his subsequent outbreak of mental instability.
An unintentional remark from an old Youtiao colleague was remembered by Thorpe, and then he found a new love as a secretary. At first glance, it was unexpected, but it was actually reasonable.
There are too many similar grass snake gray lines to enumerate, and the space is limited, so Xiaoying will not repeat them.
The director of "British Scandal", Stephen Frears , is also a big name who is not familiar with his name and knows his works.
The "Queen" that helped Helen Mirren win the golden statuette , the popular contestant "Philomena" in the awards season, and the erotic masterpiece "Dangerous Relationships" remade by countries around the world ... all came from this director.
This time, his cooperation with RTD can be regarded as a perfect match. The serious and funny British humor in the film, and the ironic and realistic British flavor in the film are absolutely amazing.
A scandalous gossip
"A British Scandal" is based on the writings of British journalist John Preston . It is a real British scandal , and the protagonists are all real characters.
This British political scandal has caused a sensation all over the world.
Because it just so happened to happen around the 1960s when homosexuality was just decriminalized in the UK!
Yes, corrupt countries were not corrupt , and homosexuality was a crime in Britain before modern times.
The United Kingdom is even the country with the harshest convictions for homosexuality, and the famous writer Oscar Wilde was convicted and sentenced.
Although in 1967 the UK partially decriminalised homosexual behaviour.
But this scandalous relationship happened in the early 1960s. When it was exposed in 1979, the general concept of society still thought it was a perversion.
Against such a background, Norman, who dared to admit that he was gay, had a taste of rebellion and freedom.
It is not unusual for a congressman to find a mistress.
In fact, it is nothing new for men to find men, and there were also in ancient China.
However , the scandal of "fighting against corruption depends on family members, and impeachment depends on mistresses" , it seems that it still exists and is still ironic.
Is the root of this scandal farce really gay?
In reality, the MP was finally tried for intentional murder , becoming the first British politician to be tried for murder.
