Tristan and Isolde

[Tristan and Isolde], translated by the cinema as [The Heart of the King] - I personally think this name is inexplicable. This film made me feel a little angry, and the good impression I had just established for Franco immediately fell apart. Tristan, typical indecision. He has a burning passion for Isolde and a daring loyalty to his king. But he handed over his love to his king (although it was caused by accident, but he gave up the struggle voluntarily), and then finally couldn't hold back and had sex with the queen. When his king knew the whole situation and wanted to fulfill his lover, his loyalty came back, he gave up his lover again, and died for the country - it was a bloody plot. In the final analysis, that guy is an extreme egoist, both his lover and the king are the victims of his man's self-esteem, and ultimately his king and lover will have to erect a monument and be a widow for his betrayal. It is sad and deplorable that a handsome guy is ruined in such a thin and tasteless role, crowding his facial features together from beginning to end, pretending to be melancholy and sad.
