Natalie Portman's strange accent and strange behavior may be confusing, such a performance is too weird, but in reality, Jacqueline is such a person.

As the first lady of the United States, Jackie is beautiful and pure, elegant in manner, and noble in temperament. She unconditionally supports the development of JFK's political career to the outside world. She is meticulous about the internal affairs of the White House and has a high popularity in the United States. However, she deeply knew that John F. Kennedy had offended too many people, violated the interests of too many people, and little secrets were flying around.

Finally, at 12:30 on November 22, 1963, JFK, who successfully dealt with the Bay of Pigs invasion and the Cuban Missile Crisis, was shot and killed at Dealey Plaza in Dallas. Jacqueline collapsed, but she was brave and she began to work with Kennedy's younger brother on the details of her husband's funeral.

There are many movies about Kennedy, "Assassination of Kennedy" and "Thirteen Days", these two are especially worth watching.

    She finally understood that the grand parade and funeral she expected did not belong to Kennedy, and all the haze would not belong to the United States forever. Her grief belonged only to herself. Mrs. Johnson persuaded her to take off the blood-stained gown. She seemed unheard of. The child asked her if she was wearing the gown for her birthday, and she was speechless. She was just an ordinary woman, but she was chosen by God to experience the pain of losing her husband and child. Her fingers that could not take off the ring were like her haggard and embarrassing life.

    At the end of a biopic, I feel that this character has no value to mine, so is this film a failure? I didn't see any bright spots in her throughout the whole process, why did you make such a movie? The dialogue with the priest is a little bit meaningful, but the way of expression (self-reporting) is also quite simple and crude. Peter Sarsgaard is so handsome...

Jackie quotes

  • Jackie Kennedy: There are two kinds of women, those who want power in the world and those who want power in bed.

  • The Priest: There comes a time in man's search for meaning when one realises that there are no answers. And when you come to that horrible, unavoidable realization, you accept it or you kill yourself. Or you simply stop searching... I have lived a blessed life. And yet every night, when I climb into bed, turn off the lights, and stare in to the dark, I wonder... Is this all there is?

    Jackie Kennedy: You wonder?

    The Priest: Every soul on this planet does. But then, when morning comes, we all wake up and make a pot of coffee.

    Jackie Kennedy: Why do we bother?

    The Priest: Because we do. You did this morning, you will again tomorrow. But God, in his infinite wisdom, has made sure it is just enough for us.
