The rights we think we deserve today were exchanged through such great sacrifices hundreds of years ago. Hundreds of years ago, it was unimaginable that the Western society, which experienced the baptism of the Industrial Revolution, was at the forefront of the world, the oppression of women, in the patriarchal patriarchy In the dominant social system, women have little status, no right to vote, no custody of children, and work longer hours than men for lower pay. When women start to try to change this social inequality, they have to pay. Paying the price of life, in the so-called civilized society, imprisoning, beating, intimidation, threats are all over the place, "If we have a daughter, what kind of life will she have" "Like you" Like her, she was born in the capitalist Growing up in a factory, being molested by the factory's rights owners when we were young, and doing overworked jobs with meager wages in our youth... "We occupy half of the population, and we are one of the must-have members of every family" so simple A real cry cannot wake up those in power who enjoy the welfare of the social structure, nor can they fight for more voice for themselves in the family. Instead, it is a tougher blow, the fate of being expelled, but always fight and never surrender! In our social discourse system, when the country was founded, women have the same rights as men. Women and men are both newcomers to socialism, and they are an indispensable part of building a country. Therefore, we have not experienced such tragic women. The liberation movement, in our opinion, those rights that are not really cared about in other parts of the world are very difficult to obtain. At the end of the film, instead of using the conventional technique at the end of the film, fading draws the audience away from the screen, instead, it uses the film technique that often appears at the beginning of the film, the picture gradually brightens, and cuts the real historical fragments, subtitles The time when women's suffrage was established The list of nodes is even more moving. In the history of nearly 100 years, are women really liberated? I think this is also what the film wants to ask.

    Tomorrow is Women's Day, I think of this movie. Seeing the atmosphere of Girls' Day in the ticket circle, I feel sad. The essence of Girls' Day is age shaming, which believes that "women" means "old women" and mean women's "value loss". Many girls are also happy to be consumed and exploited in the illusion of Zhongxing Pengyue. Girl, is your value only a young face and body? What is the difference between us and pets? In fact, I didn't want to be five stars for this movie. The plot ratio is a bit wrong, and the protagonist's light is overwhelmed by many supporting actors. But at this moment, I am willing to give it full marks. I hope that movies with this theme can open the door to a new world for more people, and hope that it is a small force on the road to world equality. Hope me too.

    The film is plain and powerful, neither plague nor fire, the dialogue is beaded, the heroine is both virtuous and artistic, and it's a bit awkward for my brother to play a straight man. The data at the end of the film is shocking. For example, in the early 20th century, the law still considered that the ownership of the child belongs to the father. For example, in 2015, women in Saudi Arabia gained the right to vote. Thanks to the persistence of these seemingly paranoid women at the bottom, today we have the opportunity to show our excellence and self-confidence.

Suffragette quotes

  • Sonny Watts: I took you on, Maud. Thought I could straighten you out.

    Maud Watts: What if you don't have to?

    Sonny Watts: You're a mother, Maud. You are a wife. You're my wife, and that's all you're meant to be.

    Maud Watts: I'm not just that anymore.

  • Maud Watts: [voice over, letter to Inspector Steed] Dear Inspector Steed. I thought about your offer, and I have to say no. You see, I am a suffragette after all. You told me no one listens to girls like me. Well I can't have that anymore. All my life, I've been respectful, done what men told me. I know better now. I'm worth no more, no less than you. Mrs. Pankhurst said, "If it's right for men to fight for their freedom, then it's right for women to fight for theirs." If the law says I can't see my son, I will fight to change that law. We're both foot soldiers, in our own way. Both fighting for our cause. I won't betray mine. Will you betray yours? If you thought I would, you were wrong about me. Yours sincerely, Maud Watts.
