"sex and the city 2" opens in Japan on June 4th.
On the morning of the 3rd, Z excitedly tapped his iphone in French class, expertly entering a series of credit card numbers. et voila, the ticket is so booked.
The fourth arrives. On the way to the cinema together, S danced with excitement. She said in lovely Chinese with a Singaporean accent, I've been waiting for it for half a year!
As soon as I was reminded by her, I also remembered that I seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Continuing the friendship line of the first film, the two-and-a-half-hour movie ended faster than expected. The few brief flash backs at the beginning were a little sentimental in addition to the hilarity. Zhijiao people lamented that the years are not forgiving, the four people in the play have gradually lost their youth, and we watching the play have also changed our faces in the rush of time.

From season 1 all the way to the movie version 2, what kind of affection is involved in SATC and the women in the world? I don't know how to explain it except that SATC knows women better than women.

S said, think of our mothers and grandmothers, who can have such a vast world like today's women, can control their own work, love, and travel alone to distant countries... Indeed, as a woman , we were born in the best of times. Along with happiness, we also have our own troubles. So there is SATC to interpret the life of modern urban women. The beautiful and ugly, the happy and the sad, all the experiences of you and me, the experiences of friends, and the experiences of friends of friends, have been truly reflected on the screen. Even in the movie version 2, when the heroines have reached the age of motherhood, I saw the shadow of the elders and felt the responsibility of family and marriage in advance.

I was impressed by Charlotte and Miranda's alcohol-fueled knee-jerk chat. There is also the scene of C hiding in the storage room and crying - outside the door is the crying baby, and inside the door is the silently crying mother, who loves her child, but her love is not enough to support her stress. So does M. She wants to balance her career and family, but she can't give up her love for work. However, in front of the world, they have no way to talk about their feelings. Because they are mothers, and the responsibility given to mothers by this society is to no longer start a sentence with I, and everything must revolve around the kids and the family.

but after all, it's like the women of Abu Dhabi hide this season's new collection under their head-to-toe black robes, women are women, in addition to performing social duties, while maintaining the natural pursuit of all good things, Find the perfect balance between tradition and reality. You can't disagree with men, this is the wisdom of women, it's a girl's thing.
I would like to see this kind of wisdom of women in SATC to the extreme every time, in my opinion this is the center of the whole drama, more dazzling than those bright and bright clothes. And the happy ending of Carrie and Mr.Big may be the gospel given to women by the times. The story doesn't end in the rules, and women are no longer the victims of human reproduction.

Rumor has it that there will also be a movie version 3, but I think that's enough for now. In Charlotte, I finally found a safe haven to enjoy my own leisure, in Miranda, I have a double harvest for my career and family, in Smantha, I used countless pheromone pills to resist menopause and embraced sex, in the fairy tale of Carrie and Mr.Big "me and you, just us two" Draw a perfect ending. Six seasons of TV series, two seasons of movies, that's it, no more or no less, the rest of the story is left to all urban women to continue to write together.

vive le SATC, vive les femmes.
