A life full of power

The master's suspense-thriller begins with a catchy, estranged cat, shattered china, Huppert's hollow and indifferent eyes, and torn clothes form a strong punch. What happened?

This is one of my favorite feminist films. The charm of Michelle lies in her indifference and wantonness, she controls her own life and does not let herself fall, and she does not hesitate to break the rules that the world thinks of (Tomio, Ex-husband's new relationship), she can accuse her mother, target her ex-husband's new love, and reach out under the dining table to evoke a handsome new neighbor. In the world of secular thinking, this is bad, and yet does Michelle care? Whether it's a cowardly unmotivated son, a cowardly and cheating ex-husband, or a guy in the company who fantasizes about her, or a sociopathic father who gradually emerges with the plot, does she care about the mother she thinks is absurd? The world she faced was stereotyped from childhood, but she was born after death. A strong personality can penetrate the shackles of the world, and Michelle's tough core has not been built since childhood. The unknown violence of her father caused several murders. She was at a loss in the bloodstained chaos. The vulture and hyena version of the press used her, and who else could protect her except herself.

I think she came out of such a difficult situation. She learned to face herself openly, so that she could separate her father from herself; and she had to be full of control, so that she could live well. Michelle is contradictory and arrogant and unreasonable at the same time. The best friend's husband sleeps because he wants to sleep. The cheating husband has to be a solid spare tire after leaving. The cowardly son is not obedient, then the economy is under control. And then have to clean up the mess for him.

And the childhood father who gave her a lot of damage, she has been unable to deal with it, and the rapist who broke into her life made her relive the process of being broken, traumatized and incapacitated, so she was capturing and constantly recalling Stop the simulation to catch this guy.

When Michelle's sexual fantasies about her handsome neighbors and her hatred of rapists are overlapped in reality, it's absurd and I think the unbelievable process is very short, about 0.0001 seconds? This strong woman is so familiar with fate that she doesn't care, and it's pointless to carry a kind of pungency that she loves whoever she loves.

In the cat-and-mouse game with the rapist, she relived the huge trauma of her childhood, and Michelle, who was unable to struggle or protect herself at the time, was finally able to slowly regain her sense of control through the heavy trauma of the rapist. , the entrapment of rapists can be described as self-salvation for childhood accidents. He even managed to cure his son's cowardice by using two things, which made people applaud!

After this incident, she could finally face the father who was inseparable by blood but in fact hurt her hard.
