Molly's Game is based on Molly Bloom's autobiography. When she was young, Jasmine devoted herself to skiing, and her level was among the best in the world. However, in the Olympic selection, she unfortunately lost her name. After that, she decided to give herself a year off before going to law school, so she went to Los Angeles to work as a waitress. As a result, she became obsessed with opening gambling games. Open gambling games and make millions of dollars.
What kind of woman is Jasmine? She was hungry for success, and her teenage years were all about being taught how to be a champion.
What if you lose? Wash away with a victory.
This is Jasmine's line when she is kicked out by the mysterious man X (player X, the prototype is Toby Maguire).
It is conceivable how much the failure of the Olympics hit her when she was young.
So when the god of luck favored this woman again, how desperately she seized all this.
After Molly failed in the Olympics, she lied to her family that she found a job as a coach in LA and went through a gap year, but in fact she was doing it and being a 24-hour babysitter for a Hollywood industry.
This Hollywood industry, although unhappy all the time, mocked the bagels that Jasmine bought him for the poor ("poor people bagels"), but it was this industry who called her a number of celebrities and asked her to organize card game.
From that moment on, Jasmine went from an outsider who knew nothing to a well-known poker princess step by step.
Is Jasmine an ambitious woman?
Not necessarily, at least not reflected in the movie.
All of Jasmine's actions were subconscious reactions to the existing situation.
She was fired from the Hollywood industry, and she went to the Four Seasons Hotel to lead a game; Hollywood A-list (player X) no longer supported her, and she went to New York for a bigger game.
However, Jasmine does enjoy controlling powerful men. In the movie, there are too many times the same shot of Molly sitting in the corner, staring at the game of cards.
In that moment, she was in control.
But why Jasmine is so desperate for control, the movie attributes to his father.
Jasmine's father was a strict person, and he was much stricter with his daughter than his son was loose.
What made Jasmine even more stressed was that her two younger brothers were much more successful than her. One is a doctor, and the other is a two-time Olympic champion.
Although at the end of the movie, Jasmine's father explains why.
When she was five years old, Jasmine caught her father cheating on her. From then on, Jasmine's father and Jasmine couldn't get along well because of shame.
Even though Jasmine and her father reconciled in the end, the shadow of childhood eventually affected Jasmine.
But it also made her a poker princess.
At the end of the film, Jasmine chooses to plead guilty in order to protect her reputation (my name is what all i left). .
In the end, the judge ruled that Jasmine's community labor was a benevolence.
To sum up the whole film, Jasmine's Game is a neat and excellent commercial biopic, but the opponent is too strong, this year's Oscar is hopeless.
But it is enough to give the model worker an Oti, and Alan Sorkin can be considered a successful transformation.
Now it's time to see if the box office can make a comeback.
