First off, I've watched Travel TV's "Bright Talk" TALK SHOW a long time ago. Wearing a fat jacket and a pair of flip-flops, Ms. Hong Huang danced and discussed with Zha Jianying: Beijing may add "pink cars" (that is, women-only cars) in the subway to avoid or reduce the number of female passengers in the subway. Sexual harassment during rush hour on the subway. This proposal is not uncommon, and some large cities in Japan, South Korea, and Europe and the United States have also made this move. But how feasible is this, that is, how reliable is it? Relevant data shows that the ratio of males to females taking the subway in Beijing is almost 1:1, which means that the extra one or two carriages are simply in short supply. Among the Chinese people who are not easy to queue, girls who cannot squeeze into the pink carriage are more likely to be sexually assaulted. Some might even think that the girls who don't ride in the pink carriage are willing to be violated. The vast number of satyr comrades can share the delicious meal delivered to their mouths as a matter of course even when there are more wolves and less meat. Or from another perspective, is it true that there are so many perverts in our ancient country with a history of 5,000 years of civilization? It's absolutely not surprising that this measure is in place in Japan. Anything related to sex can be easily remedied in Japan. Like what Zha Jianying said, many salty pig trotters in Japan even have special clubs to share their experience and countermeasures with each other. It's really not good, in order to satisfy their alternative sexual orientation, they also find a lady to do role-playing (really TM is perverted). But not so much in China. After all, it's not the best way, or the most efficient way, I think.
I admit that I am definitely not a beautiful family, but I have also encountered a salty pig hand incident more than once on a crowded bus during the rush hour, and even shared a seat with an exhibitionist. Every time I follow a principle, I will never give these people a habit. In fact, this kind of thing is completely unnecessary to show off, but their bad sexual orientation makes no sense, so I am unwilling to play with them. This should also be related to personal character. Some girls are shy and hard to tell, so they have to swallow their anger, which is inevitable. But no matter what, if there is something you don't like or can't accept, please express your opinion. The way of expression can be weak but must be firm, it can be strong but must be wise.
Next, let's get to the topic and talk about this road movie with a female as the protagonist, which is also exciting - "The End of the Road". Road films in the general sense are full of masculine colors, and the fixed audience of such films is even dominated by men, but Ridley Scott's "The End of the Road" chose two women as the protagonists, and had to One is a bold innovation. Such innovations not only made the movie a hit and a hit, but also won a large female audience for the road movie.
Selma and Louise are close friends. Selma is an ordinary but naturally beautiful housewife. She has only talked about one boyfriend, and this man has naturally become her husband. Louise, on the other hand, was a somewhat masculine, plain-looking restaurant waitress. On this day, the two met for a driving trip. On the road, they seemed much happier and more relaxed than usual. Selma, in particular, was completely different from the usual housewife's state. She, who has never smoked at ordinary times, held an unlit cigarette and gestured sexy and provocative to her lips. At this time, she seemed to be closer to the true self in her heart. From the beginning to the present, Thelma and Louise's journey has only been an escape from the boredom or helplessness in real life, so the reason why the journey excites them lies in the unknown front. Of course, everything that has to do with the unknown carries some danger. But what Selma and Louise didn't expect was that the danger led them down a completely different path.
In a bar on the side of the road, a man accosted Selma, originally just wanting to dance happily, but the man tried to rape her. Louise arrived when she was in a hurry. Although the man let Selma go, he still spoke rudely and showed great contempt for women, which completely angered Louise and shot him to death. Since then, they have embarked on a road of no return. If it was an accident, their later robbery was a deliberate crime. But this was not their intention, and the fuse that led them to do so was a cowboy (played by Brad Pitt). He had a one-night stand with Selma after taking Thelma and Louise's car, and stole their only travel expenses. Thelma's experience plays another pivotal role in the film. To raise money again, Thelma robs a roadside shop. This time, the two innocent people really became wanted criminals. The pair then smashed the truck of their driver who sexually harassed them, and mercilessly teased the policeman they were supposed to avoid. In the process, Thelma and Louise slowly discovered that they were happier as women warriors against the entire patriarchal society. At the same time, they also realized that only the other party is the one they can truly rely on. But choices often come at a price, and for Thelma and Louise, the price may be beyond their lives. Because this society is still a patriarchal society after all, the resistance of Thelma and Louise is like a flash in the pan. Although beautiful, it is destined to be short-lived.
The police, representing the power machine of society, finally come after them, and Thelma and Louise are cornered at the end of the road. In front of the army of police officers with live ammunition, the two made another choice at the cost of their own lives.
The two clasped their hands together and said: Let's keep going! Drive the car towards the cliff. I can fully imagine what will happen next, but I don't feel sad in the slightest. Because such a leap allows them to completely transform, become free, become themselves, become strong, and always move forward.
Naturally, there are also male characters in the film, such as the husband who makes Selma obey orders, but he does whatever he wants. Like the bar guy, the tanker driver, the cowboy who teased them. Like Louise's boyfriend. Like the cop who really wanted to help them. These male characters make the two heroines in the film more aware of the whole world.
Although I also get hooked when I see Thelma and Louise blow up the tanker and tease the cops. When I saw the two of them take turns driving through the canyon late at night, my heart was sour. But I'm not a feminist, and I don't want to judge subjectively how men and women are equal or unequal in today's society. I just want to say: girls, whenever and wherever, be a brave, wise, and powerful woman. Live your way, Let's keep going!
