the first lady

Sincere 2022-03-27 09:01:09

Based on the life of former US "First Lady" Jacqueline Kennedy, the film focuses on the four days and nights of Jackie's life - from the assassination of her husband President John F. Kennedy to the funeral.

The movie jumps out of the chronological order, substitutes memories with post-event interviews, and allows the audience to enter the story in a puzzle-like way.

The heroine Natalie Portman's interpretation of the characters is extremely in place, allowing us to see the style of the first lady.

The film uses old image data to connect with the real shooting environment, the characters are highly restored, and the actors' costumes are vivid.

Jackie quotes

  • Jackie Kennedy: There are two kinds of women, those who want power in the world and those who want power in bed.

  • The Priest: There comes a time in man's search for meaning when one realises that there are no answers. And when you come to that horrible, unavoidable realization, you accept it or you kill yourself. Or you simply stop searching... I have lived a blessed life. And yet every night, when I climb into bed, turn off the lights, and stare in to the dark, I wonder... Is this all there is?

    Jackie Kennedy: You wonder?

    The Priest: Every soul on this planet does. But then, when morning comes, we all wake up and make a pot of coffee.

    Jackie Kennedy: Why do we bother?

    The Priest: Because we do. You did this morning, you will again tomorrow. But God, in his infinite wisdom, has made sure it is just enough for us.
