As we are studying ‘the language of drama’, we were required to watch several movies as for our references in understanding the world of drama better. From the beginning of the semester, I have watched several interesting movies – Oedipus Rex, Macbeth, Elizabeth the Golden Age, King Lear and Street Car named Desire. However, the most movie that I really interested is Elizabeth the Golden Age. It is a fantastic movie and no wonders this movie had won many global awards.
From the beginning of the story I was fascinated by the costumes used by the actress - the old gown during Elizabethan era. I assumed that this movie had won The Best Costume Design for Academy Award. What I have learnt from watching this movie is that besides the actor’s and actress’s talent, the costumes also play an important role in making the story become more realistic and interesting.
The main reason why I love this movie is that it shown the woman’s power over the man. Well, it is very difficult to find a movie which put woman on the top of a community. This movie in some ways made me proud to be a woman. Haha..In addition, as usual a movie is incomplete without the sense of love. Thus, for this movie, the triangle love between Elizabeth, Bess and Raleigh was another element that captured my interest towards this movie.
