Seeing a group of jeremy irons photo pictures, I had to sigh, the male god is indeed a male god, even if he is old, he is still handsome and cool!
For a lot of people, I know Jeremy Irons definitely because of the movie Lolita, and I'm no exception. However, I am ashamed to say that as a movie lover, I only watched the movie he starred in after listening to his English audio reading, and I did not see him, but I heard it first.
When I listened to his emotional reading of "Lolita", I was conquered by his low British accent, and when I watched his performance in the movie "Lolita", I was deeply moved by his implicit and affectionate performance.

Lolita, based on Vladimir Nabokov's novel of the same name. Most of the novel is a confession by death row prisoner Humbert, telling the story of a middle-aged man and an underage girl.
Because of its involvement in obscenity and incest, after the novel was released in the United Kingdom and the United States, the British cabinet met to debate, but there was no ban on sale, while New Zealand later banned it.
Critics have different views on the book, with some seeing it as a very explicit pornographic novel, while others seeing it as a serious literature of great literary and artistic value.
What is right and what is wrong is still inconclusive.
The novel was adapted into a movie in 1962 and 1997, the 62nd edition was not watched, not evaluated, jeremy Irons starred in the 97th edition, for this version, I can only say, too sad.
Isn't it incest? Isn't it perverted? Isn't it a movie? But why can't I see deformity, I can't see pornography, I only see a obsessive love, an infatuated man who is abused by desire?!
When he first saw her, he was seduced by her; in order to stay with her, he was willing to marry her mother; in order to remain with her, he indirectly killed her mother and did not hesitate to deceive her; he knew that she was playing tricks on himself, but he was willing to be played with by her; he could do anything for her, including killing, only because he really loved her.
Remember the male protagonist's inner narration when the two reunited a few years later?
"I looked at her, looked and looked, what used to be like a flower demon, now only dead leaves are left to return home. Pale, bloated, vulgar, with someone else's flesh and bones in the belly... But I love her, she can fade, she can wither, she can do anything... But I just looked at her, and all the tenderness came to my heart. ”
And her? She loved money and even the old man who had kidnapped her more than he did.
For the original party, the male protagonist of this movie is undoubtedly a failure, otherwise, why do many people not only not spit on the male protagonist after watching the movie, but also mourn the fate of the male protagonist, but make people feel that the ignorant girl Lolita does not love him but falls in love with the fat man who is unbearable is her fault!
The old man played by Jeremy is so affectionate and so heart-wrenching that his immorality and selfishness can also be forgiven.
Some people say that "Lolita" is "an aging Europe seducing a young America", while others say that "Lolita" is "a young America seducing an aging Europe".
I don't know who seduced whom, but I know that Jeremy's Hanpa is so graceful that it is impossible to associate him with obscenity and perversion.
Jeremy Irons excels at emotionally complex, restrained and repressive characters.
In "The Debt of the Rich", he realistically portrays Klaus, who is both good and evil, and interprets a European aristocrat who is extremely indifferent to the fullest.
Moreover, in order to perfectly interpret the role, he also deliberately cut off his hair, dyed it off-white, and injected silicone rubber into his chin to raise it high.
"The Debt of the Rich" tells the story of a rich man accused of murdering his wife, who was convicted of the crime in the first instance and will be sentenced. So he asked a lawyer to help him overturn the case, and in the end, the case was successful.
Many people went to see this movie for Jeremy's performance, after all, this is his Oscar-winning best actor work.
And the facts have also proved that the transformation of elegant gentlemen to bald monsters has been very successful!
At first, Jeremy Irons performed on the streets, then participated in some musicals and stage plays, and then he starred in the drama version of "After the Storm in the Old Garden", which became famous in one fell swoop.
Adapted from the novel of the famous writer Evelyn Waugh, "After the Storm in the Garden" unfolds from the perspective of the protagonist Charles, depicting the confusing and ambiguous emotional entanglement between Charles, Sebastian and Julia.
Jeremy Irons plays the gentle, quiet and infatuated Charles, which makes people pitiful, and Anthony Andrews plays Sebastian, the aristocratic son who has a crush on Charles, which is sad.
In addition to the drama version, there is also a film version of "After the Storm in the Old Garden" starring Matthew Goody and Ben Whishaw.
Compared with the film version, the drama version is more loyal to the original work, and the storyline has basically not changed, only slight deletions have been made.
In terms of character shaping, although Matthew's Charles has a high appearance, he is victorious in terms of acting skills.
In terms of word of mouth, after basically watching the drama version, I can't see the movie version. However, not looking at it does not mean that it is not necessary to watch, because Ben Meow's Sebastian is so amazing!
I like to play two very different characters at the same time – similar on the outside and very different on the inside, which requires a lot of skill.
—Jeremy Irons
"The French Lieutenant's Woman" is a love movie starring him and Meryl Streep, the drama structure, Irons played two roles, one actor Mike, the other is the aristocratic prince Charles.
Later, he played a pair of twin brothers with very different personalities in the psychological thriller "Sin Buckle".
Both brothers were gynecologists and opened a gynecological clinic together, and the two who had been at peace and happy to cooperate began to torture each other because of a woman with three uteruses.
The plot is weird, the performance is crazy, and the heart is not good, watch carefully.
Long before Lolita, Jeremy Irons had already played a number of old man roles in a deformed love.
In "Seriously Injured in Love", he played a high-ranking official who had an unrequited love affair with his son's lover, and in the end, the two were caught and raped by their son in bed, and the son fell off a building and fell to his death.
furthermore
There is also the film "Stealing Incense" directed by Italian director Bernardo Bertolucci.
and the movie "China Box" starring Gong Li and Maggie Cheung
Of course, as an acting school that has won awards in various fields such as Oscar, Golden Globe, Emmy, Tony, etc., and has been affirmed for his lifetime achievements, Jeremy Irons can naturally hold on to strong or cruel or sinister roles when perfectly holding repressed and sad roles.
For example, Aramis in "The Man in the Iron Mask", where movie emperors from all over the world gathered,
The well-thought-out," the vicious terrorists in "Die Hard 3,"
And the British drama "Henry IV", co-starring with Jitterson, I still remember when he taught the ethereal Jitterson, it was really indignant!
Recently, this old drama bone has joined dc again.
Remember The Wayne Butler in Batman v Superman? That's right, that's Jeremy Irons!
Earlier, foreign entertainment media announced that he would join "Justice League", still playing "Batman" Bruce Wayne's butler Alfred.
Finally, there is this joke:
"For Jeremy Irons, doubting his acting skills is as ridiculous as doubting Bush's sexuality."
Hahahahaha!
