20th century women
The reason for watching it is to see such an evaluation when browsing a website: 2016 high score plot.
The title may seem grand, but it is, reflecting the musical, social, economic background of the 20th century through the eyes of single mother D... Dorothea and son Jamie.
Throughout the film, is the narration. I really like the lines in the movie. While watching this movie, I actually cried like an idiot in front of the screen.
Any thoughts on the film itself?
One, every shot and every picture in the film is beautiful, and the photos taken by Abbie are all cute little details that make people want to take screenshots. The director used a lot of slow-motion push-pull, just... like it?
Second, Abbie, a man with red hair, likes punk music, and likes to record his daily life with a camera. It is both assertive and delicate, which I think is her character trait. In a gathering of friends, the word "menstruation" was boldly spoken, which still had a certain impact in the 1980s.
Third, regarding "feminist rights", there are many words "feminist rights" in the second half of the film. Maybe the director wants to express some point, but I don't think there is a clear and good expression here.
Fourth, Julie, not much to say here. Always abide by the bottom line with Jamie, which is what I admire about her? btw , she said friends can't still be friends after having sex.
Fifth, I appreciate and feel distressed about Dolucia.
When an adolescent son is dissatisfied with what his mother does, he will explain to the people around him: She came from the depression. This inexplicably touches me. When I think of the rebellious period, I always cannot understand and resist the kindness of my mother.
The end credits feature a small plane(?) and Jamie's narration: "I thought this was just the beginning of a new relationship with her, but maybe we haven't been this close since then." The film ends.
The film may not have much substantive meaning, or the director showed what he wanted to express and I didn't get it. For the time being, is it a literary chicken soup slice?
