"Love" in the Age of Sailing

Elizabeth was really white, and she didn't know what powder was on her face. At the beginning of the film, the gradual change from oil painting to real person shows that this film still pursues a similar appearance, especially the appearance of Philip II really resembles the portrait on the oil painting. The clothes are also more elegant, or I won the Oscar for best costume design this time.

It is also interesting to deal with some details. Even the crippled leg of Philip II due to gout has been shown. When Philip II dragged the pair of broken legs to the balcony, it seemed more trivial and funny.

This film is called Elizabeth, so Philip II will feel wronged.

Originally, I wanted to see how Elizabeth I was shocked by the situation. Unfortunately, the emotional entanglement between Elizabeth I and Sir Raleigh in the film took up more resources, and I was looking forward to the most famous sailing event in the sailing era. The decisive battle was supposed to be the highlight, but it felt a little hasty. The royal pirate who played a vital role in this naval battle, Drake, who was ordered to rob and won the Lord, was robbed of the limelight by Elizabeth's old friend Sir Raleigh.

Think about it, too, who made this film called Elizabeth. And it is Clive Owen who plays Sir Raleigh again.

Although not addictive. But some of the main plots are still shown, the beacon sends a message, the fire ship attacks, cuts off the anchor, and so on. When did you make a special movie about the great battle that determined the fate of the two empires? At that time Lord Drake, his Vengeance and the privateer fleet will be able to show off.

Imagine what an exciting moment it was. The sails were like forests, and the Spanish Invincible fleet lined up in a crescent formation obscured the sky and the sun was out of sight. Several fire boats took advantage of the moon's dark and high winds, straight into the array downwind. . .

In the great battle of 1588, Britain defeated Spain's invincible fleet in one fell swoop. Britain rose as a new power, and Spain declined from the extreme. As a result, Britain became one of the world's powers, and has ruled the world's oceans for three hundred years. It is known as the "empire that the sun never sets" in history. The period during the reign of Elizabeth I is called the "Golden Age", which is the subtitle of the film.

Although I am a bit dissatisfied, I recommend it for the naval battle at the end of the film. Who made me fascinated by "The Great Sailing Era OL" in the previous paragraph.

    Replaying the most important naval battle between England and the West in modern history, the battle situation was a little tricky, as if Elizabeth was placed on the throne, and she repeatedly emphasized her religious orthodoxy, which almost turned her into a magician. (Can you expect a third part)

Elizabeth: The Golden Age quotes

  • Queen Elizabeth I: And the private life of this Prince of the female gender, what do the stars foretell there?

    Dr. John Dee: These are matters of state, Majesty.

    Queen Elizabeth I: Surely the stars will tell matters of state, Dr. Dee.

  • Dr. John Dee: Wonderful. Such strength. You will need all your strength in the days to come. But, you doubt yourself, my child. I have not seen fear in your face for such a long time.

    Queen Elizabeth I: Have I reason to fear?

    Dr. John Dee: Something has weakened you. There are hard days coming. But I am no prophet. I see no more than the shadows of ghosts.
