Small impression after watching "Orlando"

It can be used as another form of expression and excellent introduction to the original work. The film has a very wonderful beauty, which is in line with the intention of the original book, and the soundtrack composed by the director himself is also very good. The seven chapters of "Death", "Love", "Poetry", "Politics", "Socialism", "Sex" and "Rebirth" are connected in series, corresponding to the seven acts of the play, and the structure and form are exquisite. A good gender awareness enlightenment film, of course, what attracts me the most is the search for the value and meaning of self-existence across four centuries across time, space, and gender. "I'm still me, there's no difference, just a different gender." To tell the truth, I also want to have the freedom and transparency to get rid of all the shackles after 400 years of travel.

    Tailor's film is a formalism that has been the same for decades.

    Aside from the cycle of time, it is all about the flow of consciousness. Break free from the inherent shackles and gain rebirth. A little bit of Wilde's "Dorian Gray" shadow, the protagonist has enough time to experience, try, understand... . If fate gives us enough time, is it possible to ask fate for more?
