Greetings movie lovers, the day I want to talk to you about the movie Albert Nobbs, this is a 2011 British production, based on the novel of the same name by George Moore from 1927, this movie is starring and produced by Glenn Close, Directed by Colombian Rodrigo García.
The plot of the story takes place in Ireland, where a butler named Albert Nobbs keeps a big secret, in reality it is a woman who works in a hotel in the city, she has kept this secret since adolescence and has worked very hard, she She leads a very austere lifestyle because her big dream is to be able to have her own business one day, so she saves almost all of her salary and tips, she is a very reserved butler with refined manners for the other workers and clients of the hotel, no one suspects that he is not a biological man.
It could be said that this film has a simple plot, but it still deals with themes that are very strong, such as the double standards of a society that excludes bastard children, that abuses vulnerable women and that does not offer fair job opportunities to women, however, these themes are not like an open window in history, all this is seen when the protagonist's history is really known.
A person who identifies as the opposite gender is something that generates taboo even today, so in the Victorian era it was a source of scandal, knowing this Albert is prey to his own destiny, where he cannot be free, he must always keep a secret and is very adept at suppressing his own emotions, however, everything changes when he meets a man who has something in common with him, this friend managed to even marry a woman and lead a life like any other. biological man, this possibility opens for Albert a world of dreams that he considers feasible.
Albert feels affection for one of the maids, this is a very beautiful young woman but she shows no interest in him, the point is that Albert has a big heart and knows that he has the possibility of giving the girl a good future if she agrees to be with him. by his side, but there are things that complicate the circumstances.
Seeing this film made me very emotional, on the one hand imagining the suffering that sexually diverse people have in a world where they have always been seen as a shame, but on the other hand I think that this film makes us reflect in general about dreams, about as we work so hard for these but sometimes the path to achieve them should be part of happiness, because a life of sacrifice alone is not worth it.
