Know the end from the beginning

After the whole film came down, it deepened my understanding once again: a good drama must make people feel that every character has something pitiful and sympathetic about, even if it is a "bad character". And most of those "villain actors" who are unwilling to be spurned and have superb acting skills can do this. This is also one of the criteria for me to judge whether an actor is performing well or not. Of course, it is the basic to achieve "three points in the wood".

In this way, many repertoires meet my standards. No character is 100% perfect, and there is no 100% villain. Don't tell me that cleanliness is also a disadvantage. I mean human nature.

This drama does not have the depression of the British costume drama that was originally expected.

The film is most praised for the clothing, but in my opinion, the clothes of the Victorian period always have a kind of painless, no surprise. Maybe my taste is too heavy?

To be honest, I don't like the heroine Keira Knightley, I don't like all the films she's made, including her CHANEL perfume commercial, although she is also an Aries, although I admit that she plays very well. In the first 5 minutes of the movie, you can probably predict the theme that the whole drama wants to express and the character of each character, but I just love this kind of entanglement.

Women's clothing is a way of self-expression. I like this statement. Under such a social background, women have no more social status and deserved respect than men, and they have no right to speak. So how do women express themselves? --apparel.

    In fact, the duke is really a good man. How wonderful to be that free

    Keira Knightly's looks are really not my thing. From the last time she was arrogant and prejudiced, she has always felt that this girl is not suitable for acting in a medieval film. The temperament of the whole person is always in the subtle sense of being very good but just playing with the eyebrows and eyes. After all, this is just a movie about middle-aged married life.

The Duchess quotes

  • Duke of Devonshire: How wonderful to be that free.

  • Georgiana, The Duchess of Devonshire: [speaking about Charles Grey] We love each other.

    Duke of Devonshire: I do not doubt it; he is a dreamer like yourself. You both dream of another world that does not exist, and never will.
