A typical American style of bravery and momentum of the film.
A single mother, a housewife who has returned to the workplace, has no education or experience, and even suffered a car accident and lost a compensation lawsuit. It is quite unlucky and desperate. She had to shamelessly work for the lawyer who made her lose the case, accidentally discovered a suspicious point in a case, persevered in the investigation, and finally succeeded.
There isn't really much exciting or clever design in the plot, and there are even some parts that keep the protagonist hooked. But the protagonist in the play is quite typical and full.
She is a beautiful woman. Julia Roberts really deserves to be a pretty woman. Even if she wears cheap clothes, she can't resist her amorous feelings. Such beauty also played a role in her pursuit of the case and all the way to success. For example, at the beginning of the recording station The release of the company, the neighbor’s boyfriend willing to help take care of the children, and the company employees who came to chat up;
She is a low-class woman. The irritable temper, the foul language that burst out from time to time, the revealing clothes that still do not change even when working in a law firm, the film critics continue to portray and emphasize this social attribute of the protagonist (actually, I am still a little puzzled, why does one person She can't change her character and way of doing things after starting another life), but it may be such an identity that allows her to get along with the victims more closely, and it is easier to gain trust;
She is a soft woman. She pretended to be fierce and threatened the lawyer to give her a job, but she had to say "don't force me to beg you" under the strong insistence of the other party. On the way home from busy work, she heard her boyfriend mention And the first sentence that her daughter said, she shed tears of guilt; when she said to her boyfriend that the respect this job brought to her was still unable to get him to stay, this woman who had always been strong and outgoing unexpectedly showed fragility and tenderness. helpless;
It has to be said that the power of the heroine's halo and the deep interpretation of the actors make this drama full of brilliance.
In the process of watching the drama, I remembered "Knock When Happiness" and "Focus". They are both the bottom people who have fallen to the bottom and the same uncompromising elements against the huge forces. This is probably an inescapable literature and art. Or the most touching theme.
When Irene took her boyfriend to visit one of the clients and showed him "the cause she fought for", and the client hugged her and cried, she couldn't help but be moved.
This is probably the power of persistence. Only those who do not compromise easily can finally get what they want.
