W.E. (2011) - GOOD MOVIE
"W.E." had one hell of an uphill battle. Not only is it a period piece,
but the film is also written and directed by the one woman in the world
that makes people pass judgement before even experiencing her work.
That woman is Madonna.
This film tells the story of Wallis
Simpson and Edward, Prince of Wales who gave up his place as King of
England to be with the woman he loved. It is one of those modern day
fairy tales, we love. The juxtaposition of a
parallel love story adds a new element to the Wallis/Edward story. Wallis,
our heroine, named after Wallis Simpson uses that connection to help
her explore the Wallis/Edward story and answer questions she has about
her own life and marriage. I think Madonna has done a credible job
writing this film. I recommend you see this film and enjoy the fairy
tale.
