The whole film is full of beauties, and Fu Hua Dao is simply beautiful. In particular, some of Julia Roberts's dresses are now back in fashion, and fashion is really a circle.
First, want to say. This is not the women's version of Dead Poets Society. Many people compare the two. But I think this film is more of a female enlightenment film than Dead Poets Society.
Many people stay away from this film because of feminism. But after reading it, I found that people's stereotyped feminist color is not very strong. Instead, the whole film is filled with discussions on marriage and women's self-discovery and positioning.
This movie gave me some ideas. First, our roles are assigned to us by society. Our notions of gender are also shaped by society. Excluding the idea of society, what are we? We are people.
second. We expand our horizons because we can understand what we really want to pursue. Because only when you know your own thoughts will you know how to make the choice you really want. The positioning of women is not only a kind of husband and child, each person's positioning and choices are diversified. Do what you want to do, and if you think that's what you want, do it.
Joan chose family in the end, and Catherine was disappointed. Because in her opinion, a woman who chooses to be a housewife is losing herself. But what if that was Joan's choice? We advocate feminism, not anti-marriage but to choose diversity. The choices of Catherine and Joan are actually quite good.
Even more difficult, Connie also pursued her own happiness. She was willing to take that step bravely. Instead of going with the flow and marrying someone you're not interested in at all.
As for Jasley, it was also her choice. I wouldn't say she's so bad if that's what she wants. Then do it.
I believe that in the end Catherine also understood that it is not necessary for others to follow their own ideas. Her role is to tell everyone that the way of women is not only to be a full-time wife. You can have both or choose one or the other.
If this is what you really want.
