We have all experienced or are experiencing an age of ignorance and arrogance. At this age, because I know very little about the world, I can do everything in my own world. This is not "newborn calves are not afraid of tigers" this is just childish rebellion.
Every child once thought that he was the most unique one in the world. If there is external help, it will set off a child's inner fantasy. Pauline and Juliet are shields and spears for each other, protecting their fantasy...

When I watched this movie, I had the illusion that Pauline was another me in a parallel space, but in this possibility, my mother was not a housewife. You can imagine that in that home space, the mother conveyed to her all negative energy, Divided and dead... But their friendship, one is imprisoned, the other is abandoned, they are destined not to belong to each other, but at such an age, one is like grabbing a life-saving straw and trying to escape, and the other is like finally finding such a...

In my opinion, PAULINE felt inferior since she was a child living in a lowly family, and she worked hard to pursue what the upper class liked and accepted. As for how she got such a perception, I don't understand.
JULIET is a girl with a proud nature who has no worries about food and clothing. Fortunately, her nature survives very well. First of all, she has a famous family status as the backing. There are people like that around us, who seem to be flawless and who can live proudly, which...

The purer and the more lonely, they are not alone. Are people who have the same spiritual world not soul mates? They are lucky to have each other. The director has restored the fantasy world of the couple in a wild way. The combination of reality and fantasy makes the emotional expression of the film richer, interesting and even funny. We can temporarily forget that it is a tragedy, enter the inner world of the two girls, and understand them.
Never seeing each other is the most terrifying...

Comments from my college days seem naive now, but I was able to write such a big article back then, so leave it. I don't think the two of them are gay, and although there's an implicit sex scene in the film, I think it's just an expression of love. When Pauline cast a hateful, angry look at her mother, I felt darkness hit and I could feel my heart pounding. It's clear that Pauline is ashamed of her living circumstances, and she wants to have Juliet's dad, even though her own dad is in fact...

[last lines]
[the last lines show scenes of the murder intercut with b&w shots of Juliet being taken away by her parents on the ship. Pauline and Juliet are sobbing and screaming for each other; and the girls scream as they beat Honorah Parker to death]
Juliet Hulme: Gina!
[sobs as she reaches a hand over the ship railing]
Pauline Parker: Juliet, don't leave! I'm coming! Don't go! You can't! Oh, no!
[as the girls cry and reach helplessly toward each other, Juliet's parents come and stand on either side of her, trying to comfort her]
Juliet Hulme: I'm sorry...
[Pauline screams, and the b&w scene fades into the murder scene]
Pauline Parker: No!
[That last bloody shot fades into the credits]
[first lines]
[Director Peter Jackson opens with the scene that should, logically, end the film: that is, the moments immediately following the murder. The girls Juliet and Pauline run screaming up the hill-path to the tea-house, sobbing and covered in blood. The scene is intercut with b&w visions of the two running across a ship deck to meet Dr. and Mrs. Hulme, whom they both refer to as their mother, as the first three exclamations of "Mummy!" demonstrate]
Juliet Hulme: Mummy!
Pauline Parker: Mummy!
Juliet Hulme: Mummmmy!
[the scene changes from the ship to the hilltop tea-house. The girls are screaming hysterically as the tea-house woman runs out to see what the noise is all about]
Pauline Parker: It's Mummy! She's terribly hurt!
Juliet Hulme: Please! Help us!
John: [Chasing Pauline on his bike] Yvonne! Stop! I still love you! Yvonne!
[Juliet and Pauline look out the train window at him, and grin to each other]
Pauline Parker: [voiceover] Compared with these two, every man is a fool. The world is most honoured that they should deign to rule, and I worship the power of these lovely two, with that adoring love known to so few.
