      What kind of woman do you become?

      Although this is only a product of the patriarchal era, it is still meaningful today.


      In the narration, in the smoke, and in the narration of others, what is that mysterious woman, Eddie? Make men head overwhelmed and make women nervous.

      As a feature film movie, an interesting story, just right suspense, humorous language, pleasing handsome men and beautiful women with beautiful faces, topics to talk about, fashionable parties, and enviable life. And Eddie, the faceless...

      Three women, three marriages.

      Serious spoilers, be careful. (Even a long introduction...

      The film is so interesting. I just thought it was a love movie with the usual "silly white sweet" plot, but I didn't expect it to be more interesting as it went on. The sensitivity, suspicion, and fantasy of women are great. The more you look at it, the more interesting it becomes. The most surprising thing is the suspenseful atmosphere! When the three heroines began to...

      A shallow interpretation

      From Zizek's "Looking Obliquely"

      ... Joseph Mankiewicz’s classic Hollywood melodrama "The Romance of Three Wives" also tells the story of missing women, but it shows the "impossibility of sexual relations" in a more refined way. Although the missing woman never appeared on the screen, she kept appearing on the screen in the form of what Michel Sion called "auditory speech." The story is introduced by the voice-over of Eddie Rose, a femme fatale in a small town. She wrote a letter and...

      The inexhaustible relationship between the sexes

      The Chinese translation of "Three Wife Amorous History" is very vulgar and vivid. The story of the three couples, the narrative is very simple, from a female perspective.
      Among them, Lora Mae in the third part of the story is the most peculiar, always reminding me of the Yishu girl.
      The gentleman in the second story is quite the same as Michael Douglas when he was young. Of course he is not Michael Douglas. He was only 5 years old when this story was staged.
      There is also a...

      One letter Melaleuca

      "The name of this town is not important, but it is in fact plain. The content of the story is purely fictitious. Any similarity is purely coincidental." "The Romance of Three Wives" was slowly driven out by Addie's voice-over with a train in the early morning. The housewives of three small towns were preparing to go out for a picnic, but before boarding, they received a letter from a good friend Addie: "I eloped with one of your husbands." Since then, the restless day of the three wives has...
