Virgin Queen Elizabeth I was named the founder of the golden age of the Tudor dynasty, the founder of the British Empire's maritime legend, and the queen who created the prosperous world. The movie "Elizabeth I" shows the different emotional aspects of Elizabeth as a king and a woman through several major events. In the second half of her life, there is the majestic side of being a queen, and there is also the natural soft side of a woman. Complex and rich, it was that era that made this queen, and it was this queen that made that era brilliant.

Scenario 1: Unable to marry the chosen husband Anjou

In order to keep the throne, the ministers of the parliament urged the queen to get married and have children. When the queen met Anjou, the descendant of the royal family, the marriage was obstructed by the people and other parties due to different religious beliefs. It was a helpless choice for the Queen to bid farewell to Anjou. Her confession made the woman's involuntary sorrow vividly express:
"I am very sad, but I cannot show my dissatisfaction. It is love but it must be expressed as hate, what I did. But I have to apply and have no intention of doing it at all.
I'm silent on the outside, but inside I have a thousand words to say. I'm myself but I don't belong to me. My heart is cold and the dust has been burnt out, from one me to another me. My troubles are like shadows in the sun, they linger with me, follow me like a shadow, do what I do, or give me more nihilistic satisfaction, or they will urge me to die, thus making me forget A love long gone.
Well, Queen, the whole of England is yours."

Scenario 2: Knowing that the lover's wedding

movie has Lester, Elizabeth's favorite person, as the main line from beginning to end, and the Queen has all her heart in Leicester. on Sturt. But she's the queen, he's not royalty, they can't get married. In the face of a fruitless lover, you can't get it but you're not reconciled. The Queen was furious when she learned that he was married. Her anger was not just directed at Lester, but perhaps more at her involuntary anger. Another hopeless ending.

Scenario 3: Sending her sister to the gallows

Faith, interests, rights... For various reasons, she sent her cousin, who has the monarchy, to the gallows. After the execution, Elizabeth made a frantic mess, and her helpless emotions reappeared. At that moment, she hated rights, I think.

Scenario 4: She only has the body of a small woman, but she has the queen's soul

soldier about to fight. Elizabeth's encouraging words boosted her morale, and the soldier was so excited that he knelt down and kissed the queen. She only has the body of a small woman, but she has the soul of a queen.

Scenario 5: Obsessed with a lifetime of love
As a queen, she needs to pretend to be sad or happy on some occasions. As a woman, when Lester passed away, she was hurt from the bottom of her heart. She never married, and no matter how majestic the Queen is, she is still a woman at heart.

Elizabeth I unified England and created the richest and most powerful country in Europe at the time. The time of the film does not allow it to show the full story of Elizabeth, but it also sends a living queen to the eyes of the audience. Freedom is relative, even if you can get rid of the shackles of identity, people are still a tiny part of nature. Elizabeth also just played her role as a queen.
