No responsibility to spit

Although Heath Ledger has passed away, it's none of my business if people have money to play Hysteria and fail. I can go upside down, and that's how fast I speak.

This film is really good, it looks very atmospheric and detailed. Although the theme is how the empire on which the sun never sets raped Africa, that sentence is none of my business.

But the casting of this film was really a failure and went to my grandmother's house. It felt like two big dick-shaped red flowers sticking out of a large lush greenery. I won't lie to you, there is such a variant of the Celosia cristata flower family that it looks like a DD.

Just four buddies: Jack as Bentley, William as Sheen, Tom as Penry-Jones and Harry as Heath Ledger. Sheen has the most profound skills here. He has played Nero, played the British Prime Minister, and recently played Frost/Nixon, and his future is becoming more and more limitless. Although Bentley is not British, the role he plays is very aggrieved, and it is easy for the audience to have a good impression. Penry-Jones is not bad, his acting skills are mediocre and there are few scenes, but he has a very meticulous grasp of the attitude of that stinky blue blood.

Then I don't know how deep the Heath Ledger is. Indeed, I didn't understand how his Harry had ascended to another level, apart from his malicious motives. Although there is a god-like old black man reading the scriptures to him all day long, I think he still doesn't know whether he has grown up or not.

Anyway, I have a prejudice against the British drama school. I'm sure again whoever challenges the British actor is humiliating himself. But Hollywood audiences are mostly mentally retarded, so good-looking British people play gay in Hollywood, and bad-looking people play a British dick who can not get the girl...

Although most British actresses are ugly Temperament beauty.

Well, anyway, the heroine in this film, Kate Hudson, braves the stupidity of a village girl from the inside out, which is even more stupid than the romantic light comedy of the British gentleman and the American silly girl.

The Four Feathers quotes

  • Harry Faversham: I've left the army.

    [Ethne laughs in disbelief]

    Harry Faversham: No, Ethne, I have left the army.

    Ethne: Why?

    Harry Faversham: There was talk they might send us abroad. For a year or two. I didn't want to wait that long to get married.

    Ethne: I would have waited. Or come with you. My mother did the same for my father.

    Harry Faversham: Yes, I know, but it tisn't what I wnated for us. You're all that matters to me now.

    Ethne: Where were they going to send you?

    Harry Faversham: They weren't sure.

    [the church door opens and a delivery boy from the army gives Harry a package that contains three white feathers]

    Ethne: [Picking up the feathers from the floor] Is this your friends' idea of a joke? What is it, Harry?

    Harry Faversham: Feathers of cowardice. Yesterday we were informed that our regement would be shipping out to Sudan. That we would be sent to war.

    Ethne: You don't know where they were sending you, you said it yourself. You did it for me. No one in their right mind could call you a coward. Especially not your friends. If there's been some kind of misunderstanding you have to clear it out. You have to go back to the regement and clear it out.

    Harry Faversham: No, I can't.

    Ethne: Then I will. I'll go see Trench, Willoughby and Castleton myself and tell them it's my fault you resigned. You did it for me.

    Harry Faversham: It has nothing to do with you, Ethne!

    Ethne: Then why?

    Harry Faversham: I never wanted to join the army! I did it for my father. I thought I'd serve my commission for a year or two and keep everyone happy and then I could...

    Ethne: Do what? Wait until we were married to tell me the truth?

    Harry Faversham: Ethne, I never meant to lie to you.

    Ethne: No, but you were quite happy to let me deceive myself. Do you think people will let us forget this?

    Harry Faversham: I don't care what people think, Ethne. All I care about is us.

    Ethne: It's not about us, Harry. It's just not about us. Jack would give his life for you.

    Harry Faversham: Don't you think I know that?

    Ethne: Then go back. It's not too late. Tell them you wouldn't have resigned if it weren't for me.

    Ethne: I would have resigned. And I wouldn't have gone to war for anything or anyone.

    Ethne: Then you are a coward.

  • Harry Faversham: When something like this happens you are lost. You don't know who you are anymore and what you're capable of. Unless I do something this is always how people will remember me. A feather. And that is how I will always see myself: a coward. All I know is that I can't live with myself like this.
