Golda. As a movie about the war warrior teaches not to lose self -control during hostile invasion

The Golda tape was released in late summer - early autumn, and on October 7, 2023, Hamas fighters attacked Israel. Israel did not expect an invasion, but about the same, judging by the film, happened at the beginning of the war of the Judgment Day 30 years ago. Military realities force Ukrainian viewers to acutely perceive what is happening on the screen.

And the image of Golda Meir, created by Helen Mirren, shows it by the same iron lady of Israel, through which Israel came out of the ancient war the winner, albeit with great losses. The British Helen Mirren managed to play the legendary Israeli Premier (who is known to be born in Kiev, where she lived up to eight years).

Mirren was likely to have the experience of performing the roles of the ruler, like the creation of the image of Queen Elizabeth II in the Queen's film (2006) - this work of the actress was noted by Oscar. Only here the Prime Minister does not wear a lush attire, on the contrary, Golda is dressed modestly, which does not cancel the feeling of the character's greatness. Despite the age and cancer, they affect its wit and fantastically rapid reaction.

The doctor insists on the procedures, the prime minister does not agree. Doctor: - You annoy me. - And you. Golda's conversation with an assistant on the background of increasing tension in Arab-Israeli relations. - What does your intuition say? - Not your business (pause). But something is approaching. The picture states that the unpreparedness of Israel to the attack was due to the fact that the "wiret", which was introduced into the enemy, did not justify itself.

The hysterics of the military leadership, the same Minister of Defense of Israel Moshe Diana, are shown. But in this event whirlwind of Golda, which smokes continuously, retains Spartan peace. Although Israeli director Guy Natti demonstrates how difficult it was to maintain this firmness of the spirit. And even joke. After the first aircraft, Golda Meir told the ministers during the meeting: "Don't worry - I stay under the roof.

And you will go to the ministries and act according to the instructions received. " But, for example, talking to the same Moshe Diana about the current military situation. Gold: - It could be worse. - It's much worse. - You would be my feet. Moshe laughs, and the camera shows a large plan of the smooth legs of the Golda, which has an "aggressive lymphoma". At the same time, Meir did not reduce the number of cups of coffee and cigarettes.

The ribbon strikes a beautiful metaphor: clouds of smoke cigarette Golda gradually become smoke on the battlefield. She even joked in direct negotiations with her main enemy - President of Egypt Anvara Sadat: "You can call me an old woman, but I still want to survive until the day when peace will be officially concluded between our countries. " And the garden could not stand, laughed at the old woman. That is, in Golda's most elastic stop, Meir is more internally free than its opponents.

The tape has an almost mystical episode that did not occur the fall of Israel. The military officer reports Goldy: "The Egyptian tanks broke through the fortifications, and then for some reason stopped and did not go further. The gasoline ended or was not the order? What happened, we did not know, but in the war everything is decided by hours.

The premiere is also shown as an experienced political tactic and strategist, but at the same time we see it literally in an intimate setting, for example, as in the bathroom a helper baths. And the grandeur in the premiere from such scenes does not decrease. On the contrary, the viewer merges with the main character - we even feel how hard it walks, every step.

The whole palette of emotions is reflected in the face of Helen Mirren: with the help of large plans, every excitement of the heroine and even the course of her thoughts is a higher acting pilot. In addition, some decisions of Gold make as a woman, heart. 400 soldiers were surrounded. She insisted on pulling them, despite the huge military risks: "boys need to be saved.

" This was not the most successful solution: the heroine washed her face for a long time in the toilet, and a real sorrow was read on her face. Ukrainian viewers who live in the conditions of the Russian-Ukrainian war, what is happening on the screen, is particularly acute. In the Golda figure, the Meir in the tape is a merged person and politician: the main character skillfully affects the various strings of the soul in her opponents.

One of the "rescue" for Israel of episodes is shown without any mystical miracles: the Israelites struck the Arabic tank group with the help of "phantoms" obtained from the United States. And Egypt, according to the film, helped the USSR. Israel "Phantoms" received on the protection of the Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

The argument of Golda, who swept the scales of Libra towards immediate military American assistance, was: "If the Arabs defeat us with Soviet weapons, how will the West perceive?" But when the situation begins to change in favor of Israel and Kissinger will demand a ceasefire, the Meir will again show its character to conclude peace on much more profitable conditions.

And one of the "arguments" on her part was the treatment of Kissinger in the kitchen with borsch before an important conversation: everything in the Golda was captured. Moreover, in 1973, Henry was not desirable to a guest in different countries, where he went to notify the consequences of a Watergate scandal that led to the resignation of his boss - President Richard Nixon in 1974: in the film Kissinger remembers this scandal with bitterness. So Golda's "borsch bakery" was, of course, gratitude.
