Watching movie!!


Elizabeth In The Golden Age. It was the first movie that Dr. Edwin asked us to watch. This movie portrayed women in power. I personally always admired woman who were in power and in this movie, Elizabeth who was the queen of England played a very important role. She was full with braveness and courage and as a queen who was supposed to lead all her people, she gave everything that she could give. For example we could see, when the Spanish came to conquer England, England was losing all their ships in the war and most of the people died, as a queen she did not see herself as a woman, she herself went to the war to fight with the spanish. Elizabeth was also good in making decisions. I could see clearly in this play, she wasn't dependent on anyone. Although she listens to some people for advice but eventually she makes her own decision. There were other things that I wanted to share here about this movie but, I wanted to share one thing why Dr. Edwin had asked us to watch such movie. It was because, he would like us to get the ideas about how the time, the people, the places in Elizabethan era would look alike. It helped us lots in understanding the play during that era and gave us a clear view about people those days. We could simply make comparisons of plays between our time and Elizabethan era. From this movie, we could see woman as a leader and she was a good, dependable queen for her people...

  1. wow nawa! u are good in reviewing film. bravo!!
    i love the Queen too. she has a kind of attitude that normal women dont have. besides, we could at least know the history of Britain during the golden days. how the woman, as a queen manage to make her own decision in order to save her kingdom. the Elizabethan drama was great right??? don't you think that too nawa?? the title of the film also resemble the power of the queen who was the people's hearts.

    i couldn't imagine if i was in her place. what should i do then? i might need adviser to think and decide for me. but this Queen is really something for sure. Hail the Queen!!
