My Fair Lady's aftermath (some thoughts)

The tension is good, but personally, I don't like the heroine so simply like the male lead, and I want to see the plot where the female lead starts to be a pronunciation teacher independently and then goes against the male lead. Moreover, the final ending, I can think of a reasonable explanation is: the heroine was transformed from the slum to the hero, and she was under a lot of pressure during the period. She could be seen crying secretly, tossing and turning in the middle of the night, in a new environment except for two The professor does not have contact with the outside world, so she has no friends, teaching her and the people she is in contact with are very rough and strict with her, so she is very flustered and helpless, she can only learn as much as possible, and then from the later episodes Seeing to be doing the same job as a servant and enduring the bad temper of the male lead, here she is still the slum girl. There is an identity positioning. So what I can understand, the reason why the heroine returned to the hero is: she can find an identity around the hero, and she can know who she is. She was shaped into a noble and elegant image, and lived in a completely different environment for a long time and cultivated. At this time, she could no longer live in the original slums, but when she went to another new world, she was again A false identity, just like the young man with high intelligence quotient played by Xiao Lizi in the movie Tom and Jerry, he finally returned to fbi because he had nowhere else to go, where he had a sense of belonging, so even if he could go a lot No matter what, he won't be caught, and he won't leave with a lot of money. In his heart, he only identifies with one place, and that place has a sense of belonging.

The female lead is the same, the male lead is rude, treats her as a servant, disrespects her, she is always ignored by the male lead and the professor, she lives in a completely unfamiliar world, and is uneasy, the original savagery is also offset by the fear, the surrounding The people instructed and scolded her. Thinking of it this way, the heroine really seemed to be in prison. On the night she decided to leave the male lead, taking off her gorgeous evening dress, changing into clothes and walking down the steps, I felt like the female lead was escaping from a spooky castle.

Outside she met the male partner who had been pursuing her, and then she asked him to kiss her. The male partner was a little hesitant at first because he felt a little offended, but the female lead felt that any girl had the right to be loved and cared for, and then she accepted his kiss. Here you can see that the heroine has begun to pay attention to herself. She has started thinking from the end of the task, from the party, or earlier. She used to be a flower girl, but she only sells flowers. She has always had herself, and her commodity is flowers. . But after she was transformed, the product is just "me", so if it looks like this, the heroine may add another item when she returns to the male protagonist, she may still think that the product that the male supporting role likes, and the attitude of the male protagonist makes She felt that the flower girl still existed.

It actually feels like a tragedy.

The dialogue of the movie deeply thinks that there are actually many things. The last climax of the heroine says that she has found a way to deal with the male lead. She can be a teacher, teach students, and marry a male partner after she has a salary, so she can find a way to deal with it. A happy life broke out because of fear for the future, and finally saw a future. But at this time, the male protagonist said something that impressed me deeply, "independence", everyone is independent at any time, the female protagonist wants to be independent at this time, but when does the female protagonist not independent, she has always been an individual . Yes, but can the heroine return to her original life? Every independence is different. When the independence of the flower girl becomes the independence of a manipulative object to complete the task, the independence that is sought after by everyone at the dinner party but is actually driven, becomes the independence of teachers earning wages, and the independence of marriage.

After the heroine left, the hero and the professor went to the street to find her. The professor, the housekeeper and the male protagonist's mother all think the male protagonist is strange, and the male protagonist's response is, look at her changes, translate it, look at her changes, is she the same as before, she may encounter danger outside .

When the male partner kissed her, the police obstructed it. If it was a flower girl in the past, it would not necessarily be true, but the female protagonist is now a noble and elegant image. If you change your clothes, change your tone, and change your temperament, will you make people around you respect you? I feel that from this level, it is more like respecting myself and winning the respect of others. (Of course, there are others, but I'm not going to think about it right now)

In short, there are a lot of thoughts, but at the end, the male protagonist doesn't know if it is the illusion that I want a happy ending, and the male protagonist speaks more politely.

But it's still the meaning of calling, so I still say it's a tragedy.

My Fair Lady quotes

  • Professor Henry Higgins: Eliza, you are to stay here for the next six months, learning to speak beautifully, like a lady in a florist's shop. If you work hard and do as you're told, you shall sleep in a proper bedroom, have lots to eat, and money to buy chocolates and go for rides in taxis. But if you are naughty and idle, you shall sleep in the back kitchen amongst the black beetles, and be walloped by Mrs. Pearce with a broomstick. At the end of six months you will be taken to Buckingham Palace, in a carriage, beautifully dressed. If the king finds out you are not a lady, you will be taken to the Tower of London, where your head will be cut off as a warning to other presumptuous flower girls! But if you are not found out, you shall have a present... of, ah... seven and six to start life with as a lady in a shop. If you refuse this offer, you will be the most ungrateful, wicked girl, and the angels will weep for you.

  • Eliza Doolittle: [singing] Lots of chocolate for me to eat! / Lots of coal makin' lots of heat / Warm face, warm hands, warm feet / Oh, wouldn't it be loverly?
