The director used typical black humor to describe how women survived in the society at that time.
Also subverting tradition, which reminds me of Dead Poets Society.
The absurd and dramatic plot twists perfectly reflect the acting skills of the mission. The women here are sad. They haven't realized that they can't rely on others. Only when they master the power can they have the initiative and happiness.
And Betty obviously didn't understand this truth at first. She was of noble birth and thought she was superior to others. She didn't allow anyone to be as happy as her. She was jealous of others and thought only herself was worthy of love. She thought that she came to school just to She came from marriage, because of this, she despised Teacher Watson, despised the discipline of the classroom, and deliberately avoided her dormmates many times, making herself look very noble and different. The woman who fell into bed collapsed, the world collapsed, and she couldn't accept this cruel reality.
The film is very interesting from two places.
One is that Betty and her mother have a very interesting conversation. Look at the Mona Lisa, she is smiling, but is she happy? It doesn't matter, she just looks happy. Also, don't just see what's on the surface.
The second part is that when Mr. Watson taught Van Gogh's paintings, he taught students to think about the painting methods and lines in the paintings, and to think instead of appreciate them; when he was about sunflowers, he told the students that you can follow the instructions above. , also draw a sunflower like Van Gogh, but it is only Van Gogh's sunflower, not yours. What you have to do is to draw your own sunflower. This reflects Watson's idea of teaching students to think independently.
At the end of the film, Ms. Watson also achieved what she wanted, what she wanted to change, and the sunflowers with their own characteristics at the end were enough to prove that although she could not change the school, she changed the students in this class. Make them solve problems with new perspectives and thinking, and re-plan their lives.
This is Ms. Watson, an independent and admirable communication thinker in order to change the place and not let the place change her.
