When I learned that the screenwriter of this show was the screenwriter of Sex and the City, I immediately said: I must watch it!
I still remember the revelation that Sex and the City brought me about gender, about feminism, about my own life.
I've always thought of Carrie as a jerk and Miranda and Samantha as role models.
So, I clicked play with the expectation that this is another spiritual treasure of my life. . . After only half an episode, what the hell is this? ! !
This is the world of obscenity from the Americans. .
As I have lived in France for a few years, this is not the Paris I know, nor the Europe I know.
Episode 1: Will the French feel threatened? And, who gave you the courage to dress like this in Paris?
Emily is targeted by the office crowd, and sits on the banks of the Seine feeling grief-stricken. Po a beautiful Ins, her French colleague LUC happened to pass by and said the following words:
We are actually afraid of you because your new ideas make us feel like we need to work harder and make more money.
. . . . . . . . .
The French, will they be threatened by the aggressiveness of a new and unruly newcomer who has just arrived?
Did the screenwriter see a Frenchman in a parallel time and space? Is that the French guy who spends 30 minutes drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes at work? Is it freedom first, strike first French? Is it French with a strong sense of national pride?
Maybe it's the French the writer knows, but it's definitely not the French I know.
Speaking of France, speaking of Paris, everyone will think of the word Fashion.
Once Sex and the City was a collection of enlightenment for many people's fashion, so I also saw the same ambition of the screenwriter and director in this drama.
However, what the French appreciate is called effortless chic. It's effortless, but you feel that there is a sense of fashion everywhere.
Rather than the use of large-area color blocks and bright colors.
In the dark Europe, you think you need a big color block to brighten your life, but it just feels out of place.
Episode 2: No matter how the French have a bad reputation, they won't flirt anytime, anywhere! And, Paris Jia Ling, you don't seem to speak Chinese.
Many people think that French men are romantic and affectionate, in other words, French men are casual.
So our Emily arrived in Paris and was first teased by the brokerage brother and said that you should have a French boyfriend. Call me if you have an idea.
Then at the work party, the charming client asked again, you need a French boyfriend, this is the best way for you to learn French, especially in bed.
Although the French are romantic, they are definitely not lewd. Only Teddy can be in heat anytime, anywhere.
I don't know if the screenwriter intends to exaggerate Emily's beloved Mary Sue or hear the 419 stories of some French men.
This plot, in my case, does not hold and seems superficial and vulgar. Please, we are in 2020, do we still have to do such a cute story of a silly white sweet girl?
Emily accidentally picks up a good friend who claims to be the daughter of the Chinese zipper king, also known as Paris Jia Ling.
However, the "Chinese madarin" that this lady occasionally pops up doesn't seem to be real Chinese. It is said that this sister is of Korean descent, okay. We Chinese are still not good abroad, can't we find a real Chinese to play it?
. . . .
Episode 3: Americans are keen to bring their standards to the world and their views on women's rights are too shallow
Emily thinks "vagina" is masculine rather than feminine and feels violated, and she thinks that an advertisement for a woman who is naked and feels a man's admiring eyes is discriminatory, and she slaps a huge "politically correct" for her prejudice. hat.
Define freedom in the "political correctness" of the border, the screenwriter of "Sex and the City" who wrote the game world and believed that women and men have the same enjoyment of sex and admiration. After so many years, are you progressing or regressing? ?
Emily is like a stereotypical preacher of love and justice, teaching the French how to respect women. As everyone knows, when American women didn't know what feminism was, Beauvoir had already published "The Second Sex"; French government letters had long used the goddess headshot of "liberty leading the people", and the United States just recently appointed an objector. Female conservative justices who had abortions.
An American who came to someone else's territory just verbally said that I love France and Paris, but he couldn't let go of his superiority to point fingers at other people's culture. It seems a bit ridiculous, and it's a very standard American double standard.
Episode 4: To be continued. . . .
I don't know when I will continue to pursue it, but my interest is not really high at the moment.
