      ignorance and prejudice

      "Indian Partner", I actually saw this film a long time ago, but I didn't take it to heart. I thought it was "Pengci" and "Chinese Partner", just from the name.

      But I was wrong, the original name is PAD MAN, literally translated as Pad Man? Straight to the point, maybe this translation will give people a feeling of "killing Matt", even classified as a big movie made online, so the importer changed it to "Indian partner" according to part of the content of the film, which made people...

      love among toilet heroes and indian partners

      The two films are almost of the same type, challenging traditional concepts and culture, and protecting women's rights and interests. After all the difficulties and obstacles, the ending was quite satisfactory.

      The love in it is the same, expressing letting go is also a kind of love. In the first film, the male protagonist said, today, you are going to leave mine to change this country, which is more like my wife. For you, I even dared to go to the guillotine. Divorce is nothing. Put...

      A little thought about pad man

      There are a few simple ideas that extend from this film.

      1. It is really difficult to reform. It is really difficult to get out of the common perception of the public, and it is really difficult to actually practice your own ideas.

      At the beginning of the film, the villagers, men, women, and children all believed that "the problem of sanitary napkins is something between women's legs, it is not on the table, and it is not clean." Only the male protagonist insisted on making...

      Indian partner

      When I first saw this movie in the cinema, I wasn't really interested in its name, but when I watched it, I thought the movie was pretty good. Lakshmi in the movie loves his wife very much and will give her flowers , to make tools to help his wife, to make her happy, to spoil her. In the country of India, a man would worry so much about his wife's private affairs that it even caused misunderstandings in the whole village and his wife, but he did not give up and wandered abroad to learn...

      female status

      Looking at the title of the video, we can't think of a man making pads. My inner feeling is even more so, the real solution to the problem is the end, and the person who can protect his wife is a real man. This film can face the weaknesses of the society head-on. In the lighthearted laughter, I was moved to tears unknowingly; it exposed backward and pedantic customs, but in the end it always evoked a positive attitude, seeing the country's hope, full of hope. Positive energy, but without a...

      In the negative ending, Parry should be with the male protagonist. . Ex-wife get out of here. . What kind of person would support an ex-wife? Can someone like Shen Teng's wife support his ex-wife? ? ? Who the fuck said that marriage has to be together forever? ? Is first come first served robber logic? ? ? ? Strong buy and strong sell? ? If you meet someone who is inappropriate, you have to be together. This view is the same as not daring to use sanitary napkins for fear of social condemnation....

      I believe that many people are like me, very disappointed with the ending! Parry is so good, the three perspectives and souls fit together, but he returns to his wife. Why! The concept of the same will not be...

    Evaluation action

    "Pad Man" is inspirational and touching for two reasons. First, it takes advantage of role dislocation to make men cry for feminism, which is much better than women talking to themselves. Second, it interprets the concept of "one person's success is not successful, but helping a group of people succeed is called success". However, the logic of the film is inconsistent and the rhythm is unreasonable, resulting in redundant and...
