      Country beauty

      "The Queen" is a daring movie -- and I mean the writer's imagination. What about things in the ancient court? Those who are a little famous in history have been tossed back and forth many times by the screenwriters of the extremely developed era of this drama, and the screenwriters of "The Queen" dared to directly attack the contemporary political leaders. Knowing that if this knife is unstable, it will cut into the sore spot of the big man in power, and the consequences will be ugly....

      queen, queen

      Queen, Queen!
           This is a biographical film with Queen Elizabeth II as the central character. The film revolves around the relationship between the Queen and Prime Minister Tony Blair, and runs through the entire story with the death of Princess Diana as the main line to show the British royal family, the government, and the people. The masses, and the delicate relationship with this era. Among them, the image of the queen makes people think a lot.
      This is a representative of the...

      To the Queen

      It was the queen who had the responsibility first and second as a
      child. After decades of ups and downs and the cooperation of 12 prime ministers, she
      was afraid in the days after Diana's death.
      People reacted violently and told her something
      she said herself . What I've been through now, maybe in the future, I don't understand why
      the pressure from public opinion happened. She refused to give an explanation to the public for a long
      time. It was because she was...

      i am queen

      It is not the royal family against the people, nor the people against the royal family. It's just that the media is making waves in the middle, because they are the real murderers. They are afraid of being blamed and put the blame on the royal family, and the people are always the stupidest.

      I love the royal family, diana is a good woman but not a good princess.

      Time has passed for 11 years, and the enthusiasm has subsided. At the end of August last year, not many people...

      hot-headed people

      The death of a divorced princess in a car accident caused a lot of fanfare, fuss, and arrogance. She also said that the revolution was changed to a republic, and the media was too evil. The crowd was also excited. The princes, nobles and politicians had nothing to do, so they knew that trying to please people would not affect them. 70% of the people think it will affect the monarchy, and a quarter of them agree with the abolition of the monarchy, just because of an old princess who they don't...

      Quite touched by what the queen said to Blair at the end of the film. As a monarch, you should hide your feelings. Responsibility comes first, and the individual comes second. This is a behavior that has been cultivated since childhood. But this behavior is not suitable for this era. People in this era like to make a fuss, like to speak publicly, like to show, like acting, even the queen has to adapt to this era to act in a scene. Do you say this is advancing or...

      Calm, objective, and humane, the people are blind and impulsive, are incited by unknown reasons, and are prone to defections. The state machine is in operation, and people at the peak of power need to be wronged in order to maintain their statements and...

      HM The Queen Mother: Charles, Charles dear, use the Royal Flight; they keep one plane on permanent standby, in case I should kick the bucket.

      HM Queen Elizabeth II: No, Mummy, that's out of the question; this isn't a matter of State.

      Prince Charles: What are you talking about?
