In this film, everything is fine - and the costumes, and the scenery, and the actors. Revenge of the Haute Couture has collected many awards and delighted Kate Winslet with the wonderful play. Who else starred in this film and what story is embedded in the plot of the film?
Plot
Myrtle Dannage arrives in his hometown, from where she was taken to an orphanage as a child. She had a mother, but this did not stop the social workers. The girl committed a crime. They could not put a child in jail, but to send them away from these places was easy. Life at the shelter was not sugar, but it tempered Tilly and gave her a good boost in the future. She grew up a beautiful and purposeful girl. After graduating from school, she studied at the courses and became a dressmaker. Years later, she was drawn to her native land, where her half-insane mother lived out her days.
The elderly woman did not recognize her daughter, and made a real hysteria when she began to tidy the house and herself. All these years, the closest neighbors helped the hermit as much as possible not to starve to death. She was once a good dressmaker, and it was from her that Tilly learned to sew. Now the girl intends to find out the whole truth about her past. She knows that she is accused of killing a local boy, but does not remember how it happened. Her memories break off at the moment when he attacked her and tried to beat her. However, other children did the same to her. They called her lakhudra and considered her mother a fallen woman.
Denouement
Residents of the town are not happy to see the killer and try to remind her of her act whenever possible. The girl begins to draw old acquaintances closer to her, offering them to sew beautiful dresses. Soon her cavalier appears - a neighbor and an old school acquaintance named Teddy. They begin a romance, but his recklessness leads to tragedy. Having decided to show his courage, he jumps into the silo and dies of asphyxiation. Once again, Tilly becomes a victim of circumstances. Her nerves are already at the limit, because she already remembered how everything actually happened many years ago. She did not kill the boy - he himself broke his neck. The girl decides to leave the city after the funeral of her mother and finally burns her house, and at the same time all the other buildings.
The film "Revenge of haute couture". Actors and roles
The Australian film has collected many awards at home. 5 Australian Film Academy Awards and 4 Film Critics Association Awards. The best actress, the best supporting actor, the best costumes, the best film, according to the audience, the best costumes, the best supporting actress - and this is not all the nominations. The picture was good from all sides: there is tragedy, and a touch of irony, and even comedic moments. All the actors of the movie “Revenge of the Couture” in 2016 were excellent in their roles, but we will consider the three most significant figures.
Kate Winslet - Tilly Dannedge
Among the actors of the movie "Revenge of the Couture" she was a real gem. The winner of the Oscar and four Golden Globe statuettes for the best actress immediately agreed to play the unfortunate, lost Tilly. This actress knows how to transform so skillfully into her heroines that after the first minutes the viewer begins to unconditionally believe her every gesture and word. According to the plot, Myrtle arrives home after a hard parting with his man and the loss of a child.
She has to take care of a mother who is crazy and does not remember at all that she has a daughter. In the process of seeking the truth, she finds out who her father really was and what role he played in her life. This news literally destroyed her worldview, but the worst happened on the evening of the same day. Her lover decided to prove that his love is stronger than the curses of the local population and died. Everyone who had favored Tilly until this moment turned away from her again and remembered her childish deed. From a large number of residents, only Teddy's mother and the local police chief know that the girl is not guilty of these two deaths. The epic ending shows how a girl burns all her sorrows along with an old house and a worthless town.
Judy Davis - Molly Dunning
This actress also has the Golden Globe and Emmy Awards in her piggy bank. Twice nominated for an Oscar, but this award has not yet been given to her. The actors of "Couture Revenge" played their roles perfectly, but this woman had to get used to the image of a half-mad old woman. For many years she lived alone. On the outskirts, abandoned and cursed by all the inhabitants for sins unknown to anyone. Her daughter was charged with murder, and her whole life was poked by extramarital affairs. Out loud, no one called the name of Tilly's father, but everyone knew perfectly well who bears this sin in his soul. Puritan society hated a woman, forgiving this misconduct to a man. She experienced the return of her daughter with difficulty. After all, for a long time she could not remember who this fussy girl was in her house. Care and care could clarify her memory, although for a long time she, along with everyone, blamed her daughter for the boy's death. The death of a woman was the logical conclusion to the picture.
Hugo Weaving - Sergeant Farrat
Everyone remembers this wonderful actor in the movie The Matrix, where he brilliantly played the role of Agent Smith. No less memorable was the character from the cult trilogy The Lord of the Rings, in which he reincarnated as the elf Elrond, the lord of Rivendell. Unfortunately, this actor does not have such significant awards as his two colleagues, but his acting career is not over yet and there are many good films and roles ahead.
Sergeant Farrat, played by Hugo Weaving, turned out to be the most controversial character in the film. On the one hand, he does not want to enter into conflicts with the local population, on the other, he is sorry for Tilly and her mother. It was in this young woman that he found the greatest support in his entire life. From an early youth, he kept a secret and was afraid to open it in front of his townspeople. He loved to dress in women's dresses and himself drew sketches for dresses. On this wave, he quickly became friends with Tilly, and she became his faithful friend. This actor in "Revenge of the Couture" got, perhaps, one of the most tragic roles. In the finale, he reveals to everyone his true identity and finds himself behind bars in order to save his girlfriend Tilly.
