Charlotte has a lot of troubles.
Charlotte is a pitifully mournful widow, mother, wife. Her whole life must have been unfortunate, right?
Although we can't understand the first half of her life, we can see clues from the details after she became a widow. First of all, the daughter is obviously a person with a particularly serious Electra complex, and she often disagrees with her mother's words, which shows that the father is the stronger party in their family. This can also be seen in the later marriage relationship between Charlotte and the professor. Charlotte has become accustomed to playing the sensible and virtuous party in the marriage relationship. Second, her husband is a gun user. On the one hand, it can be seen that her husband's strong character, on the other hand, it also shows that Mr. Watts is a person who is extremely insecure. It is difficult for such a person to completely trust the people around him, even the person next to him. In the end, during the period after Mr. Watts passed away and before he married the professor, Charlotte and her daughter lived on their own. Charlotte didn't have a formal job. Obviously, the two of them had a tough time.
Let's take a look at the image of Charlotte interpreted in the film. The first time I felt pity for Charlotte was when she went to say hello to the playwright. She entered the stage cautiously, reaching out to say hello several times and retracting her hand several times, and finally carefully grasping the raised hand of the writer. She was too cautious and humble, and every temptation made me feel more compassionate towards her. When she came back from the dance, she even brought a big piece of cake for Hang - obviously to please. In the evening, she played music, opened champagne, and wanted to attack Hang with a flattering face. Hang didn't appreciate it at all, showing resistance all over her body, and Charlotte still twisted her waist enthusiastically and without dignity. As everyone knows, the gentle and elegant writer on the surface, the professor calls her "cow" in private. When her carefully planned "Hongmen Banquet" was interrupted by Lolita, she was even a little embarrassed, planning to send her daughter to summer camp, and asked her beloved Humbert "Aren't I smart? "Humbert was already absent-minded, and used the toothache as an excuse to escape. She thought that she could spend the season with Humbert by sending her daughter away, so she hurriedly expressed her feelings and wrote a letter full of friendship to Humbert. She would never have imagined how loudly Humbert laughed when he received the letter. She is so humble that her husband lives in her house and writes a diary and wants to lock the door to her; she sleeps in the same bed but thinks of her daughter; she has been puaing her verbally and mentally; she even planned a perfect plan to murder her. Only "clumsy seals". Maybe she would turn to the diary and see Professor Hang's true face, she would wake up, but she didn't expect that she would end up with such hatred. It was only after her death that we learned that this tragic woman had always had only one kidney, and that only one had long since broken.
Charlotte is pitiful and miserable, but compared to many other women in the world, she still has a good fortune and can wear beautiful dresses, and her life does not seem to be too bad. So it's not just Charlotte that's not easy, it's not easy for thousands of women. So I hope that in the future society, women can receive more fairness and kindness.
