      gorgeous educational film

      This is the most disgusting movie I've ever seen, the subtitles have to be adjusted every two or three minutes. It turned out that I only needed to watch a movie for more than an hour and watched it for 3 hours, and vomited blood. Unfortunately, I've been looking for this drama for more than a year. No matter how disgusting it is, I can resist watching it...
          Orlando's weird appearance at the beginning added a lot to the weird atmosphere at night, hehe. When the queen is like that, she...

      Four stars, but I have to say: Orlando disappointed me

      The reason why I gave it four stars is because the idea of ​​​​living through history and changing gender is very creative. And, despite not seeing the original, I can guess that it should be a lot better than the movie.

          But the movie itself disappointed me quite a bit. The reasons are as follows:
          1. A film with such a rich content is only one hour and thirty minutes, which is doomed that its interpretation of each chapter can only be passed by the water and filled with...

      This is the first film in which the cast and crew are checked so carefully.

      Since I downloaded it to my computer on January 10, 2008, today - I finally finished watching this crazy "orlando"! ! ! quack quack quack! ! ! I have something to say at such a great time...
      seems like this is the first film I've even looked at the credits so carefully. There are a few points to say:
      (1) I began to feel ashamed that I did not learn British history well. Just one book is not enough... Besides, I only read it once. The most serious thing is that...

      For love

      There is no subtitle, but I understand it. After being proposed, I walked into the maze of trees, then ran on the foggy field, fell on the grass, and said with her lips: nature, nature, I am your bride, take me! Nature will give Your strength, give you answers, guide your direction! Everyone should live according to their natural instincts.
      After the castle was lost, the knight asked Orlando to come with him, and the dialogue was rejected, go to have chidren , for waht? go to live at home....

      Four centuries of spiritual wandering

      The noble Orlando has always been looking for a spiritual partner, and has accepted the mission of the Virgin Queen: Don't wither, don't wither, stay young forever!

              In this part of love, Orlando betrayed his previous marriage contract because he fell in love with Sasha, the daughter of the ambassador of the Principality of Moscow, but finally experienced Sasha's betrayal because of reality. Orlando therefore believes that women know betrayal.

              In this section...

      It's a pity that she's not a fan of Tilda's brain, and she was disappointed that the wonderful text was turned into a personal makeup show for her. It seems that in four hundred years, only the last chapter of the new life makes people feel a little fresh, but if you just want to hum a contemporary ode, the circle will be too big. Also to be honest, I think it's a vicious curse for the movie to say that a character is tailor-made for...

      Death, love, poetry, politics, society, sex, these chapters make up 400 years of Orlando's life. Since 1600, it has gone through the industrial revolution and the world war~~ The film is filled with the taste of British classical drama, it is too luxurious, and it always makes me feel no human...

      I don’t really care about such a narrative method. It is estimated that watching the movie will be much better based on reading. The part of the protagonist’s communication with the audience made me jump out of the story line and I felt uncomfortable. The account of the stage design and costume design are well...

      It was written for a classmate, and I watched it myself. It's a very interesting movie, and I like to star in it. I watched it again and added: It's a pretty good...

      British films are often dramatic. This seven-segment connection is inexplicable, it's too jumpy~ Well, Abu said that the details don't need to be concerned. Magical look at the...
