First of all, let's talk about the plot. The heroine Jasmine has been inexplicably distrusted and irritable with the society under the inhumane way of getting along with her father since she was a child.
The story really begins after a game accident in Molly's childhood, where Molly goes from being a nightclub salesman to running a super high-end membership gambling club.
During this period, we can see her intelligence, wisdom and indifference. The success of her career is by no means a fluke. It is not listed here, only her character is mentioned. She is strong and lonely and indifferent. This kind of indifference stems from a lack of human nature in childhood. In a word, the vast majority of people are not psychologically healthy, and most of the unhealthy ones stem from the lack of heart in childhood.
Later, Jasmine suffered blackmail due to her growing career. And because her member was involved in a crime, she was threatened by the government by first framing her and then forcing her to be a tainted witness.
And Jasmine's choice was that she would rather go to jail than betray her members, even though none of her members thanked her in the slightest.
And all this, just because of a kind of chivalrous spirit.
"Honor is our name"
She was going to defend her name, the name her grandmother gave her, a character from a famous novel, "Jasmine Bloom," which meant defending that name for life.
In the end, Jasmine chose to admit her trumped-up charges, but after a turnaround, she was acquitted by the judge.
What I want to say here is growth and redemption.
Jasmine's lifelong loneliness all stemmed from the father's love that she didn't get in her childhood, and her cheating with her father.
Therefore, Jasmine could only find one spiritual support for herself, which was her reputation, but she didn't know what she wanted, she didn't want to be convicted, and she didn't want to betray her own reputation.
Finally, at the climax of the film, her father tells her that you have these elements of your character, distrusting marriage, society, heroic humanism, because she accidentally saw her father cheating when she couldn't remember. And her father was very strict and inhumane to her because of this.
At this moment, my father told her that all this has happened until now, and he only thinks that my daughter is doing so well in her career. Then, my daughter was bullied, which is no good, no one can bully my daughter.
This was the first, and then the last conversation between the heroine and the lawyer. The lawyer and the government reached an agreement that as long as Jasmine was a tainted witness, she could get the best result for her. And it mentioned why you should help the heroine at the beginning of everything.
Because his daughter read Jasmine's book, his daughter takes Jasmine as a hero. Lawyers need to maintain the hero in their daughter's heart. It is not good for the child to break the hero image in a child's heart. It's that simple, Father.
Jasmine also saw a hero, a hero a father should be for his children.
This redemption was finally completed, and Jasmine finally changed her twelve-year-old's view. There are heroes in this world. Then she knew what she wanted.
"I've decided to plead guilty."
