The positioning of the protagonist Maud Watts is more like an awakener, so compared to the supporting role, he did not make much contribution, and more focus was on how she became Suffragette.

Men in power never take women's gentle appeals or shouts seriously. They use every means to shut up these "noisy women". In the husband's view, the rights of wives should depend on themselves. A wife who is a worker should live as a worker's wife. The definition given to Suffragette by society is greedy and selfish, so Maud Watts initially denied the identity of "Suffragette" in public, but the reality had to put her into this collective. All gentle exhortations and warnings are not without, but only violence can get their attention, and they fear only absolute power.

Since in the past men were praised for chasing freedom and slaves chasing emancipation, why does it become absurd to go to women? Even so, they never resorted to bloodshed (but they were still abused by those men to the point of being wounded and bleeding), but chose to sacrifice themselves and use the death of one person to draw the world's attention to women.

Judging from this narrative rhythm, it did not reach 5 points. The story is compact but not pushed to a climax. It tells a straightforward story of how a woman was pushed into the path of feminism by life, but this may also allow more women Find your own shadow from it, to arouse self-awakening.

    A movie that all the little pinks should watch. The rights of groups and the respect they deserve have never fallen from the sky. Today, what everyone enjoys is habitually covered with blood and tears of previous generations.

    1. Watching a political movie is really an emotional thing; 2. I don’t like Mulligan’s performance very much, but several big names have been supporting her in this movie, and they are doing well; 3 . Helena is still good to watch, the first scene is so charming; 4. Aunt May's first brainwashing scene is booming, with her eloquent and trembling but passionate tone, plus amiable and mixed with violence. Son, a few expressions and actions will do the trick
