As soon as she saw Kyomachiko, she was automatically brought into Rashomon. The role of her sister was so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In this movie, women are so miserable, right? ? ?

The first female character, a good wife and a good mother, her husband went out in search of wealth, she waited for the family alone, raised her son, and finally died of exhaustion. It's so painful.

The potter's husband was thinking of making clothes for his wife when he saw the cloth on his front feet, but he couldn't walk when he saw a lady and a beautiful woman taking the initiative to show his favor. In the face of prosperity and vanity, few people can stop it, right? But he was deceived by the monster, and he didn't want to make a fortune anymore. What is this?

The second female character, a woman who accompanies her husband to work in a big city, do you think it will be fine to fight with him? too naive. When he arrived in a big city, his husband wanted to be a warrior, so he abandoned his wife directly, so that his wife was spoiled, and he had to become a brothel girl as a last resort. At that time, what would a woman do without her husband. Just like the rich aunt in Little Women said, there are too few ways for women to make money, except for brothels, which are acting, although the essence is the same.

This husband only thinks about himself, and has never thought about what his wife can do without him. . . No sense of responsibility at all. . . If the latter two people meet and can be together again, the woman is a complete compromise. . . What can I do if I can't be with him. Going to a brothel to work is better than finding a husband who once abandoned him. . . Harmful. . . so sad

The third female character, the female ghost, was originally the daughter of an official. Because she wanted to experience the love of a man and the joy of fish and water, she refused to reincarnate and insisted on pestering the honest and useless potter. What the hell is this? If you want to be reincarnated, you have to experience a few better young and beautiful men. Why are you looking for an honest and ugly old woman and man? Still have to take him away with you to the underworld to be a ghost couple? What's so good about being a husband and wife? When encountering idealistic ghosts, there is really no way. OMG

In short, the female characters in it are all too miserable, and the men are also miserable, none of them are not miserable, or not. ?
