Today we're not talking about survival in the wilderness, we're talking about transgender painters.
Today we don't talk about small plums, we talk about small freckles.
During the opening week of school, I was busy in circles, but I basically watched all the pictures and details of Xiao Lizi's award in the circle of friends. I didn't know until yesterday that the best female match went to Alicia. Alicia's maroon eyes in the film are really beautiful, and the eyelashes are so good that I am bent, but it seems that Alicia's makeup at the Oscars ceremony is not as delicate as in the film.
The basic plot of The Danish Girl is that Einar, a male painter who actually has a female personality in his heart, has completely stimulated female hormones under the provocation of his wife Gerda, who has worked to death. Then it got out of hand and became a real woman through two sex reassignment surgeries.
Wasn't there a rumor about the transformation process of Venus in QQ space before, and then the comments were all kinds of saying, "Oh, it's really not easy. Changing personality is like reincarnation."
Indeed, the hero of our film finally died on the way to become his true self, Lili.
Before watching the film, I always thought that this film is about love that transcends gender. It is a story of a husband and wife. First, the wife breaks her husband into a female personality, and then the husband changes sex and then bends his wife into a lily. With such expectations, I have been looking forward to the warm waiting and tolerance of each other throughout the film.
To see is to see, but in one direction. Although Gerda was genuine at the beginning, she later showed a true love that transcends gender and personality towards Einar and Lili. It also made people feel that this girl really deserves a husband who loves her wholeheartedly, no matter whether the "husband" is male Still female, obviously, at first Einar was, but later Lili, not.
What was different from what I expected was that, from the very beginning, the little freckles tried their best to show Einar's hidden female personality, the excitement when touching a woman's skirt, secretly wearing Gerda underwear, etc., but to be honest, Einar transformed inexplicably from the back. Lili's plot changed a little too quickly, including that Gerda didn't have any actual resistance or acceptance, so he happily accepted Einar's change.
Gerda asked Lili to change back to Einar. Although Lili said sorry, she still tried her best to wipe off her lipstick and mascara (not in the modern sense), which I am still very moved by. Although it is difficult for Lili to be Einar who is out of control, his subconscious Einar still makes him willing to try for Gerda, whom Eianr deeply loves, so that Gerda can feel better.
But, to be honest, it may be that I don’t quite understand the feelings of people whose hearts and biological genders are inconsistent. I just think that the little freckles are good at acting, maybe they stick to the script setting, and there is really no entanglement in the performance of Einar. I dare to speculate that this is This type of person should be somewhat similar to multiple personalities, that is to say, when switching to another personality, it requires constant struggle and a painful process to adapt to their different personalities. No one will instinctively Believing that you are a multi-personality, people will always struggle with the inner self that does not quite fit the outer self. The film only shows Einar's entanglements and struggles by constantly seeing a psychiatrist. The rhythm is a little too fast. Einar seems to be accepting her hidden female personality easily.
I watched a few snippets of the novel. In the novel, a lot of space is devoted to the story of three people. Einar, Lili, and Gerda coexist. This is a gradual process, not Lili at the beginning. Occupies the entire personality of Einar.
I don't want to say that Lili is a very selfish person, but everything he did means that he abandoned Einar, abandoned all of Einar's original life, including Gerda's life, Gerda to Lili, maybe really Just a Cousin's wife, but Gerda isn't accompanying the transgender Lili out of a sister-in-law's feelings, and she'll never be able to actually watch Lili find a new lover—and a man. In all Einar's life that Lili denied, there are Gerda's married life for the past six years, sweet memories with Einar, shamless girl, attractive ankle. For such a change, Einar didn't show the guilt and worry he should have for Gerda, and he didn't even show his love for Lili. Compared with Gerda's accomplishment, Einar seemed somewhat disregarded. And Gerda could only seek comfort from Einar in Hans' arms.
I still liked the beginning of the film, Einar and Gerda, a professional dog-abusing couple, Einar who was soft-spoken, Einar who was willing to do anything for Gerda, Einar who folded her pajamas for Gerda, to be honest, I was all blown away by this. Dog food moved.
The film has some bugs in the plot, and the plot is a little rushed. For example, when Gerda found out that Einar was wearing his pajamas, he didn't have any doubts. I really admire the little girl's brain. I'll know right away that he's gay, the kind that he likes. (The premise is that I can find a gay, oh, keen insight may be one of the important reasons why I can't find my husband.)
The film is based on the true story of Lili Elbe. In the real world, the story goes like this, after Einar's transition ended, she divorced Gerda, and Gerda later remarried, but after Einar died of a uterus and ovarian transplant, she divorced her second husband and returned to the one who used to live with Einar. Denmark.
This may be the story in the real world. Gerda is not strong and great enough to accompany his former lover to change sex, and watch him leave his world step by step. Gerda might still have to run away, to start a new normal life with someone else, and to have the arms of a man like Einar.
It's hard to be who you really are, it's hard biologically, transgender plastic surgery or whatever, changing your appearance and gender is only the first step physically. A new body or face does not guarantee a new life. It takes a lot of courage to overcome your inner fear. You are not you, you are not the person you have known for decades, and you are not the person you have shown on the outside. How can you find yourself, how can you be sure of what you want The one you find is the real you. If the change is irreversible, are you still willing to change it at all costs?
Not everyone has the courage to make a change, so we admire those who strive to live out their true selves.
Finally, I just wanted to ask if Lili stands for "lesbian" or not from Lili's story. Ulla would be honored to know that her bouquet of lilies brought a new symbolism to Lily.
In the end, no matter which man is kissed by Ben Whishaw, he will doubt his sexuality, okay?
