"Mona Lisa Smile" is a deep, thought-provoking film about women. After reading some of them in the past two days, I also have some small insights. First of all, the film was shot in 1950, which is a good era recognized by Americans. Because in World War I and World War II, the United States was not destroyed by war, especially in World War II, the United States vigorously developed its military industry, which made the US economy develop unprecedentedly. And under the huge impetus of the Marshall Plan, the American economy in the 1950s was in a "golden age". The living standards of the people were very high, and there was room for ideas to develop. Self-confidence and optimism infiltrated the personality and temperament of this generation. In this context, although the status of women in the United States has obviously improved on the surface, traditional ideas are still deeply rooted. This film is about Katherine, an art history teacher full of avant-garde ideas, who went to teach at a women's university of her dreams. This university seems to be beautiful, and it has nurtured many excellent and high-IQ women. In fact, it teaches girls to improve their education and marry better. And Catherine's arrival broke the stereotype, she encouraged girls to pursue their dreams and become an independent woman. At the beginning, I thought these girls were very sad. They obviously have excellent academic qualifications, better abilities than men, and also have careers that they want to do, but their biggest dream is to get married as soon as possible. What those professors taught them was fixed, conservative and traditional thinking, women should be family-centered and husband-end. Seeing this, I was very saddened, but fortunately, the appearance of Catherine brought a ray of light to their lives, allowing them to learn to think independently, become themselves, and look at life and the world from a new perspective. At the end of the movie, I was very pleased, because the girls did it too. When Katherine left, I was deeply moved by the scene where the girls rode their bicycles to pursue. In my opinion, their crying and chasing is a deep regret and gratitude to Catherine, and it is also a quest for their re-established attitude towards life. As female characters, we can pay attention to family and care about family. But if you have your own dreams, you should also pursue them. People who love you will also support you to do what you want to do. I think the meaning of starting a family is that two people who love each other walk together and have a warm nest. Caring and caring for each other and having something to do is support each other. It means another kind of love and a good life in addition to parents, rather than bondage and cage. After having a family, two people should also have the meaning of life they want to pursue, the height of life they want to reach, and then achieve each other and bring new life experiences to each other. The final picture quality of this movie is really hard to make people feel I don't love it, it's very textured, and the real picture quality perfectly shows the beauty of each character. Unlike some current movies, filters and beauty are too heavy, but the characters lose their own characteristics. In addition, in this school full of girls, each girl's appearance is very personal and highly recognizable. It is amazing that beauty is never unified.
