When George asked Watts what suffrage meant to you, Watts took a second to say I never thought we'd get the suffrage, so I never thought it would make any sense, and the men went crazy. Lol, this scene is really ironic.
Watts was gradually brave. From the first time she saw women smashing windows on the street, she quickly moved away to swearing to set fire with them. At first, she felt that those who fought for rights were too radical. Later, what she saw and experienced The incident made her feel that these things were nothing. If she didn't resist, she would shut up, endure, and even destroy. Her bravery was pushed forward after breaking the silence in her heart.
Most of the women in the film are also gradually brave. Under the ravages of domestic violence, oppression of labor, sexual assault, and the oppression of a patriarchal society, they have gone from burying their heads in silence to slowly resisting with actions. The disparity makes them dare not resist, nor can they resist, and achieving equality is even more delusional. The long road to fight for equal rights requires brave people to move forward. No tears and blood cannot be exchanged for rights, and rights are also the product of violence. No one wants to use drastic means for equal rights, violence is also self-destructing, just because the gentle way is not listened to. Those who fight for this are not to gain more rights than men, nor to please anyone with violence, but to have equal right to choose, to speak, to have freedom, and to respect each other.
The story is good, the emotion is more delicate than expected, but it still feels like a piece is missing.
