The heroine's story
Berneice 2022-04-22 07:01:04
The heroine told a story in the desert. The story is that the king said that the queen was very beautiful. In order to confirm that he asked someone to peek at the queen's dressing, this guy saw the queen dressing, but was discovered by the queen. The queen listened to his explanation, (the heroine's husband Colin Firth shouted and cut off his head! Everyone laughed) but the queen said to this guy: If you don't want to be executed, you kill the king. Then this guy killed the king, married the queen, and ruled the country. The heroine was very happy, but no one said that Colin Firth and others were obviously disgusted with the outcome of this story, and someone reminded Colin to take it as a warning. This scene also implies that the female protagonist encouraged the male protagonist to take action, and also paved the way for Colin to fly the plane into the male protagonist in the end. This story has greatly lowered the moral standard of the film, which is unacceptable!

Absolute artwork, the characters, stories, pictures, music, and lines are all seamlessly and beautifully combined. Fifteen years ago, I only saw the beginning and was intimidated by the bloody scenes of the war, but I don't think this movie is destined to be understood by teenage children.

Katharine Clifton: This - what is this?
Almásy: It's a folk song.
Katharine Clifton: Arabic.
Almásy: No, no. It's Hungarian. My daijka sang it to me when I was a child growing up in Budapest.
Katharine Clifton: It's beautiful. What's it about?
Almásy: Szerelem means love. And the story, well, there's this Hungarian count. He's a wanderer. He's a fool. And for years he's on some kind of a quest for... who knows what. And then one day, he falls under the spell of a mysterious English woman. A harpy, who beats him, and hits him, he becomes her slave, and he sews her clothes, and worships...
[Katharine starts hitting him]
Almásy: Stop it! Stop it! You're always beating me!
Katharine Clifton: Bastard! You bastard, I believed you! You should be my slave.
