Twenty years ago, when I read "Fu Lei's Family Letter" in high school, the vocabulary that made me never forget was: "Warm and quiet, deep and simple, gentle and arrogant, subtle and straightforward..." This is a Chinese "senior" doctor. The attitude of the class is also a common feature of the elite class with a high degree of cultural accomplishment. This term is appropriate for Elizabeth II, played by Helen Mirren.
The film began when Prime Minister Blair took office, and then Diana's death undoubtedly resembled a blockbuster falling on the lawn of the Platinum Khan Palace. The media bombarded wildly, the people were chasing after him, and the attitude of the royal family was constantly being questioned. In people's emotions under the rising "virtual environment", the people have regarded Diana as a victim of Cinderella, a royal marriage.
The queen naively thought that the people were still the people who worshipped her when she took office fifty years ago. The former princess and former daughter-in-law who had mischievous private lives were chased to death by the puppies, but it was only her family's private affair.
If the Queen had read "Public Opinion" by American journalist Walter Lippmann, and "The Rabble" by Gustave Le Bon, the famous French social psychologist, the public relations incident of this royal family crisis would have been dealt with. More handy, right?
When they were still hunting in the royal garden on vacation, public opinion was already overwhelming. Fortunately, there was also the prime minister. The young prime minister seized every opportunity to speak, saving the royal image in distress.
The most memorable scene is that the Queen drove alone in the mountains and streams of the Royal Royal Garden. When she broke down on the beach waiting for rescue, she saw a stag with 14 forks. They looked at their sight for a while, and the Queen’s eyes were wet. .
Helen Mirren's interpretation of the queen is more in line with people's expectations of the queen's style than the queen herself?
The whole film is smooth, fresh and beautiful, and the handling and resolution of contradictions are invisible. Secretly sighed, only the UK can make a film with this taste!
