At the beginning of the film, there is a funeral, which is the death of his husband. The end of a period of life is also the beginning of a new life for Mrs. Henderson. She had no idea about the operation of the theater. She even opened Windmill, boldly adopted the Jewish Vivian Van Dam, and the theater business was successful all the way. As long as two elderly people over fifty years old meet, they are like rejuvenation.
Under the influence of this historical background and distinctive theme, love must give way to it, but giving way does not mean that love does not exist. Nearly half of the time, the plot reached its climax, Hitler invaded Europe, and the seeds of love that had just sprouted were forced to die.
When a woman falls in love, she will become a cute child. She will be grandstanding, constantly asking her friends for confirmation, she will be uneasy, and she will play some tricks. Judi Dench has done it all. With her superb acting skills, sometimes deep and rational, sometimes naughty like the little girl next door, she adds joy to this supposedly dull movie.
She would row alone to the center of the lake after her husband's death and howl, fly a spiral plane to France to visit his son's cemetery, playfully dress up as a bear and play with Vivian Van Dam, and stand in the air. Watching the fireworks from the upper floors of London, it seems that it is just a play in the theater. When the camera turned from side to side, Judi Dench's vicissitudes of face and expression correctly and timely expressed the feeling of going through the twists and turns of life, which reminded me of the last scene of TITANIC, when the elderly Rose stood on the ship and looked into the distance. The difference is that Rose is reminiscing about the sweet and unforgettable love, while Mrs. Henderson is missing his only son, who was only 21 years old, who died in the war. It is the mother's tribute to her relatives, and the heartache is inexhaustible.
When it comes to the theater, of course, the brave, beautiful and enthusiastic girls in the theater are a kind of elf-like existence. What impressed me the most was the scene where they insisted on performing in the war. The enemy plane was howling in the sky above the theater. Everyone's heart was uneasy. The audience watched it carefully, especially the girls on the stage. They kept breathing deeply. Then adjust his demeanor and continue to perform on the collapsed "Parthenon". With Parthenon as the background, the play also has a profound meaning. The Parthenon is the most important main building of the Acropolis. This temple has undergone vicissitudes of more than two thousand years. Now the roof of the temple has collapsed, the statues are gone, and the reliefs are severely eroded, but from the majestic colonnade, you can still see the beauty of the temple in those days.
The performance was interrupted by the war, and after a panic, the girl who was found to be drowning bravely stood up and stretched out her hands in a V shape. Her face showed a certain victory, which made us both off-stage and off-screen. All applauded.
When skills meet sincere feelings, they are always worthless. All videos are the same.
The use of several scene montages happens to be Mrs. Henderson's three different stages, as she sits on a boat in the middle of the lake, strong to bear the death of a loved one, welcome the arrival of love, and, as a mother Do your part in the fight of a country.
After all, she is just a woman, innocent like a child, stubborn, assertive, and kind. Although she is no longer young, she can only admire young girls performing nude performances in front of everyone, but this does not prevent me from admiring her.
She, always a lovely child, a passionate lover, and a great mother.
