A moment for brilliance

Rating: 8/10 (12 August 2017)

Recently, there are films which shows culture and society at that time. This film is one of the greatest work which shows us the culture of the time. This film is about 1920s society, when World WarⅠwas finished and American economy was developed significantly. People in 1920s lived in showy and costly styles. Furthermore, this age is evaluated as 'the liberation age'. However, in fact, there were a lot of people who didn't benefit from the thriving economics. The story of this film tells us not only positive aspects of 'Jazz age' but also dark sides of 'lost generation'. 'Jazz Age' only lasts for a time and people had a brief thriving time. This film successfully describes a moment for brilliance at that time. I like the transient beauty of this age. I was amazed by gorgeous costumes and ornaments. Meanwhile, I was attracted by the beauty of Carey Mulligan. I enjoyed this film visually and emotionally.
