Who will be born with a cold and powerful heart of an emperor? It must be tempered by sharpening the sword with frost and snow. Because of this, it may only take a sea battle to conquer the hearts of millions of people, but it will take her entire life to conquer her own heart.
Since her girlhood, that heart has been constantly tempered. When her mother was executed by her father, she was powerless to resist. When her younger brother announced that she was an illegitimate child, she chose to forbear. When her sister put her in the Tower of London, she kept a low profile. After ascending the throne, she abandoned love, killed her cousin, and executed Essex. Say goodbye to loved ones step by step, quench your soft heart step by step into a hundred steel, step by step polish the crown to be more perfect, every step is bloody and scarred.
In the end she finally became a perfect king, as impenetrable as a rock. In the end, she finally stood on the peak of the unparalleled, even though the heights were extremely cold, she was accompanied by the entire golden prosperity she created.
I always felt that Elizabeth I was born for the crown. Born with such a great spirit, she sacrificed mortal emotions with the determination of the gods, refined her flesh and blood, looked at the world with the eyes of the gods and issued orders, so that the sympathy of mortals was almost an insult to her. Although she has missed the happiness of mortals from now on, she can obtain the happiness of emperors.
At the end of the film, my favorite scene is really a dialogue between Elizabeth and the Earl of Leicester before the war with Spain.
"What should I say? To these people who are about to trade their lives for my benefit?"
"Your Majesty, you will give them courage... I have no doubt that you have the heart of a king."
