    Character Evaluation

    Rachel Weisz is a woman   who has both amazing beauty and bright mind. She has always been known for her ability to handle various challenging roles, while constantly expanding the depth and breadth of her work   . In "The Brothers Bloom", Rachel Weisz's slender and multi-faceted expressiveness is amazing   . "The Deep Blue Sea" is extremely restrained in the portrayal of love, and the surging emotional power is often hidden under the calm lines and expressions, and Rachel Weisz accomplished this task very well   . In "My Cousin Rachel", Rachel Weisz is much more modern than the 1952 version. She gives the heroine the spirit of fighting for independence and freedom, and is more energetic, and her temperament is also open and close. This is the heroine's next series of "impulsiveness". The behavior of "sex" has laid a good annotation   .
