Birth of a Queen

Nicholas 2022-03-21 09:01:57

I just watched this movie in Central Sixth Set. Although I only saw the second half, many people and the plot didn't understand it and it was confusing, but I received the deep meaning it wanted to express. The birth of a queen is bound to be accompanied by conspiracy and betrayal. , pain, ruthlessness, iron and blood, this is a natural bond with the throne. If you can't conquer these, you can't be a king, let alone a queen who was hundreds of years ago.

Love is the last thing a queen needs. It can even be said that it is the enemy that needs to be killed. Therefore, from the appearance to the inner arm to the end, let all the subjects see the most firm and cold-blooded determination, and embark on the road of eternal loneliness.

    This kind of film can be made in 1998! Spending big money is not soft. Technically excellent, but the story didn't impress me

    The court battle scenes always make me feel cold and especially depressed... She is a woman, but she must force herself to have the heart of a man, step by step from an innocent girl to a cruel and iron-fisted queen. "Unfortunately born in the emperor's family" is what it means. Cate's acting is amazing.

Elizabeth quotes

  • [Elizabeth presents her ideas of religious reform to Parliament; the bishops are outraged and begin to argue]

    First Bishop: Madam, by this act... by this act, you force us to relinquish our allegiance to the Holy Father.

    Elizabeth: How can I force you, Your Grace? I am a woman.

    [Bishops laugh]

    Elizabeth: I have no desire to make windows into men's souls. I simply ask, can any man, in truth, serve two masters, and be faithful to both?

    [Bishops start to argue again]

    Bishop #2: Madam, this-this is heresy!

    Elizabeth: No, Your Grace, this is... common sense.

    [Bishops murmur in semi-agreement]

    Elizabeth: Which is a most English virtue.

    [Bishops laugh]

  • Sir Francis Walsingham: Your Grace is arrested. You must go with these men to the Tower.

    Norfolk: I must do nothing by your orders. I am Norfolk!

    Sir Francis Walsingham: You were Norfolk.

    Sir Francis Walsingham: [shows him his own signature on the treasonous letter from Rome]

    Sir Francis Walsingham: The dead have no titles.
