      A story that only exists in the movie

      Under the guise of confronting stereotypes, the girl is excited to make a revolution in this beauty pageant.

      She has close friends who will stand up for her, an aunt who cares about educating her on how to grow up, and even though she is busy in beauty pageants, she will nickname her dumpling mother, and she also has a lover who loves her unexpectedly. Ambiguous boyfriend. All inferiority and self-esteem come from her weight.

      In my eyes, even if it is wearing the protagonist's...

      Thoughts on "Dumpling Princess"

      American youth films always make people feel humanistic care. It is a kind of experience and insight into the weak, small, and marginalized people on campus. The protagonist of the story is a fat high school girl. Ironically, she happens to have a slim figure, a beauty pageant champion, and a mother who has devoted her life to beauty.

      On the one hand, I admire her very much. First of all, she is not an unscrupulous girl with arrogant violence and a distorted mentality....

      pity

      Choosing the beautiful is like a very "imported" concept, even though Guizhou has so many thousand years of history, the selection of concubines in the harem is definitely indispensable. In fact, in real life, aesthetic judgment has always been an inseparable part of East Asian culture. Look at the popularity of so many idols in Japan, Korean mold face plastic surgery, and Guizhou photo editing software.

      I am still in awe of beauty pageants (regardless of gender). Anything that has...

      You deserve everything good

      My inner dialogue: "Do you know what kind of girl is the most beautiful?" "When you wear your favorite clothes, your face is full of confidence, and you don't care about the eyes of the outside world." I am not a turtle, and the shell cannot protect you. Me, the only one who protects myself is myself. I used to think that big girls can't have love, can't have beautiful clothes, can't have a shining stage. I used to walk down the street trying to shrink myself in a shell, and no one else...

      Beauty pageant version of "Hair Spray". If you can understand the meaning of Dolly Parton to the story, you will probably understand a lot (and gradually understand why Netflix made a separate play for her songs). After the singing and the lyrics, there are many questions about "big girls never stop fighting". "The core topic. I like JenJen to play this kind of "beautiful demon", because there is a little too much excavation of this kind of subject matter in TV and movies, and it is estimated...

      In American-style children's films, the characters other than the protagonist can't even be said to be flat, completely one-dimensional and monotonous. Some are also contrived. The whole routine also seems a bit...

      It’s so gentle. Movies with no bad guys are prone to preaching themes, and they didn’t explain too much according to the audience’s head. I thought it was Pitt scared to death. The original new song is...

    Movie quotes

    • Ellen: Callie is doing the pageant this year. Will's mom is the pageant director. She was Miss Teen Bluebonnet in 1991.

      Callie: Rosie Dickson's your mom? Really?

      Willowdean: Far as I know.

      Callie: Hey, maybe sometime Elle Belle and I could come over and I could ask your mom some questions about the pageant. You know, just casually.

      Willowdean: Well, unfortunately, my mom's not home all that much. She's either at pageant meetings or at the nursing home wiping old peoples' butts. It's what happens to a lot of ex-beauty queens.

    • Willowdean: "The difference between winning and losing is all in the details", she said.

    • Willowdean: It's a protest!

      Millie: What's our point?

      Hannah: It's a revolt against the oppressive hetero-patriarchy unconsciously internalised by the female psyche!

      Millie: [Slight pause] Oh.
