Drama criticism is also self-reflection
What is the meaning of women's existence? Is it to be a good wife, a good mother? Alicia once thought so too. She returned to the family during her career advancement, maintained her family's dignity outside, educated her children inside, and cooked and cooked for her husband. Her husband is a state attorney, with an iron fist, and is young and promising. They have both children, and the husband and wife are in love. No matter how they look at it, they seem to be samples of the happy middle class.
However, Alicia, who is routinely shopping in the supermarket, suddenly saw her husband caught in lustful news on TV one day, and was even accused of embezzling public funds and going to jail. She had to come out to deal with everything and take on heavy responsibilities within the high wall. After more than ten years, he entered the workplace again.
Afterwards, he fell in love with his former classmate Will. Life is always weird, and Will is shot in court by a collapsing client. I remember crying when I saw this scene for the first time. Now that I think about it, although I call myself a woman in the new era, I am still bound by traditional thinking, thinking that the happiness of women lies in the union with men after all.
Human nature has always been complicated, men will cheat, life will have accidents, and no one can protect you comprehensively.
Even, in the end, the pair of children that Alicia fully protected also opened a chapter in their life, and the son went to France for love. They are also independent individuals who have their own lives.
So, don't bind your life meaning and life value to others. Aside from wives, children, parents, these identities and roles, you are a unique individual after all, and I hope women can discover their worth.
