A gentleman is not in the bones but not in the skin

I forgot whose diary it was, and saw that sentence: "Beauty is in the bones but not in the skin", I think it should be very appropriate to say that a gentleman is in the bones but not the skin in this movie.
When it comes to gentlemen, I always think of Mr. Darcy and "Becoming Jane Austen". Men in well-fitting suits or tuxedos are elegant, calm, and take care of women, with a faint smile that is barely noticeable. Walking the brisk but well-established dance steps that belonged to that era, whether it is love, work, or life, everything is under control. Beauty is beautiful, I always feel that there is a lack of kindness and agility, and it seems a bit rigid. After watching this film, it seems that the impression of gentlemen is more three-dimensional, and they become more vivid, lovely and human. It is said that director Matthew Vaughn himself has aristocratic blood. He used to be the best man at the wedding of Guy Ritchie and Madonna. The designer of the wall-covered clothing and shoes was Madonna's designer Arianne Phillips, and the blade beauty Sofia Bodora in the film , is also the backing dancer of Madonna, so it is not difficult to understand that this film is full of gentlemanly demeanor.
Favorite episode is when Harry played by Firth teaches the punks in a cafe, and Egerton played Eggsy in the same cafe at the end, doing the same thing, believing that and a lot People are the same, the phrase "Manners maketh man", although simple, is also a classic. An old man who knows his destiny, who needs to give up his seat on the bus in the eyes of outsiders, but after closing the door, turning around, and hooking the umbrella to the cup in one go, there is a handsome fight, and small objects such as bulletproof umbrellas also let this The visibility of the plot has increased a lot. It was Harry who also created the shock of the massacre of 100 people in the church, which should also be good. It seems that most of the fight scenes were shot by Firth himself, and they have also undergone rigorous training, which is really hard work, but this kind of effort has finally exchanged for a high-quality product. In addition, the plot of two young people working together to save mankind in different spaces is also thrilling enough. The authenticity of the film lies in the fact that the righteous side was once in a weak position. Without such a plot, this film cannot be considered complete.
There are a few scenes that are more impressive. At the beginning of the film, the action of the agent who rescued the hostages in the villa is also quite handsome, but he was killed by the beauty of the blade before he could see his face clearly. On the first night of Eggsy and his classmates at the Secret Service Academy, they encountered the flooded dormitory. When everyone just wanted to save their lives and didn't want to escape, only Eggsy found the easiest way to escape and saved his classmates. , inertial thinking is really terrible, we must be careful, we must think more about whether there are other ways to go, and teamwork will benefit us. We must know that there are not many individual heroes in real life. Exploding his head into fireworks, the director may not really like blood, this idea is quite talented, the
little boy Egerton is still very energetic in a suit, but unfortunately he encountered a more perfect fee. Firth was robbed of the halo, so this film, Firth is the absolute protagonist, even if he was actually written to death.
Compared with the plot, this is a film supported by the actors' looks, temperament and acting skills. Therefore, instead of thinking about how to save human beings, just enjoy the actors quietly. There are too many chicken soup articles writing "how to be an elegant woman", adding a lot of rules to women. In fact, this film is a reminder that men can also be elegant, men can also be handsome, and men can also be divided into three or six Ninth, there is another kind of beauty in this world, the beauty of a gentleman. And this kind of beauty, not only to look at the face, but also at the heart, at the brain, at the body, and both inside and outside, so that you can be heroic.
Men, do you find such a reference scary?

Kingsman: The Secret Service quotes

  • Harry Hart: [Grabs a fountain pen from the wall] Now, I've had a lot of fun with this. One of our finest examples of chemical engineering. Poison. Harmless when ingested. But at a time, convenient to you...

    [Pulls pen clip outward]

    Harry Hart: It can be remotely activated. Primed.

    [Pushes clip back]

    Harry Hart: Lethal.

    [Eggsy looks at the gold cigarette lighters on the wall]

    Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin: And what about these? What do these do? Electrocute you?

    Harry Hart: Don't be ridiculous. It's a hand grenade.

    Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin: Shut up.

    Harry Hart: If you want to electrocute someone, you'll need a signet ring.

    [Grabs a ring from the wall]

    Harry Hart: A gentleman traditionally wears the signet on his left hand, but a Kingsman wears it on whatever hand happens to be dominant. If you touch the contact behind the ring, it delivers 50,000 volts.

    Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin: [Pointing at the smartphones and tablets on the opposite wall] And what about them? What makes them so special?

    [Eggsy grabs a lighter while Hart is not looking]

    Harry Hart: Nothing. That technology is caught up with the spy world.

    [Hart and Eggsy head back to the main lobby]

    Harry Hart: Put it back, Eggsy.

    [Eggsy puts the lighter back]

  • Kingsman Tailor: Perfect timing. Gentleman's just finished.

    [Valentine and Gazelle step out of Fitting Room 1]

    Valentine: Mr. DeVere. What a coincidence. You are totally the reason I'm here. When you left my house, I was thirsting for that dope-ass smoking jacket you had on. And since I'm going to Royal Ascot, apparently you need one of these penguin suits. Here I am. What are you doing here?

    [Valentine shakes hands with Eggsy]

    Valentine: What's up, man? Richmond Valentine.

    Harry Hart: This is my new valet. I was just introducing him to my tailor.

    Valentine: Another coincidence. So am I.

    Harry Hart: Did you have any chance to think further on my proposal?

    Valentine: Most definitely. My people will be getting in touch with you very soon. I guarantee it.

    Harry Hart: A word of advice: Ascot requires top hat. I might suggest Lock & Co. Hatters, St. James.

    Valentine: 'Lox', as in smoked fish?

    Harry Hart: As in 'locked up'.

    Valentine: Oh. I have trouble understanding you people sometimes. You all talk so funny.
