What Moscow Believes - From a Women's Perspective

I thought that a film from the 1980s would have a big gap with our lives today, but it didn't. Or if I were to give an exact assessment, from a women's point of view, I would say this is my current favorite movie, bar none.

After watching this film, I realized that the problems encountered by women in every era are similar. In the past, I accompanied my good friends to the temple to pray for marriage, and found that as we grew older, we started to feel shy or even hated for others' liking, and now we are eager to express ourselves, and even blind dates that we once sneered at began to feel like Not bad either. It was also discovered that not only this society is placing restrictions and pressure on women, but women themselves are also placing pressure and age restrictions on themselves and the same sex.

I remember Wang Xiaobo said in "The Golden Age", that day I was twenty-one years old, and in the golden age of my life, I had a lot of extravagant hopes. I want to love, I want to eat, and I want to turn into a half-dark cloud in the sky in an instant... Just like the heroine and her friends in the play, a girl of this age always wants to find someone who will make her eyes dizzy. People who worship the stars live their lives. Or to brag and disguise so that the people you like can also see it. The heroine and her friends do just that, pretending to be the professor's daughter, and then in their plans, there are partners who make them happy and satisfied. As Zweig said in "Queen of the Beheaded", all the gifts you think are given by fate have already been marked with prices secretly. In an interview that the heroine was accidentally arranged, her identity as a female worker in the workshop was discovered. Even though she was already pregnant with that man's child at that time, the person who once claimed to like her left her with such just reasons.

The film does not describe how the heroine survived those difficult years. After a few line drawings and large blanks, the female worker who used to do the dirtiest and most tiring work in the workshop became a woman who manages 3,000 people. factory manager. It is conceivable that a woman is dizzy in the workshop during the day, and at night there is a crying child who needs to be taken care of, while insisting on her college dream of chemistry. The material conditions are already so embarrassing, and the heart may still hold the loneliness of disillusionment with love, but even so difficult, the heroine still survived.

I have to say that this is definitely not because she is the heroine, so the director gave her the aura of Mary Sue. Personally, I think the heroine can achieve such an achievement for the following reasons. The first is because she has faith. From the beginning of the film, we can notice that when the other female workers in the workshop were busy calling and applying masks to gain more leverage in love, the female protagonist clearly knew that she could not stay in the workshop for the rest of her life, even if she failed the college entrance examination. , she has to take the test again. Her belief is herself. Even if she faces setbacks and difficulties, only she can become her own god and change the status quo. Second, being a mother is strong. She knows what the status of teaching her daughter has brought her. Even for her daughter, she will work hard to become a better version of herself, so that her children will have a better life in the future. Opportunity for more choices. Third, is the power of pain. Anyone who has experienced grief knows that the heart really hurts when the pain is not enough. But at the same time, whether it is out of unwillingness or disgust for the current situation, when the uncomfortable emotions fall to the bottom and the Jedi rebounds, the force will support you to move forward, and sometimes it is a kind of morbid behavior and psychology. Help you sing along the way.

At the end of the film, I remember the heroine whispering to the returning Guosha,

: "Do you know how long I waited for you?"

:"eight days"

: "I've been waiting for you for a long time"

At that moment, I felt as if I really resonated with the heroine in the play, I could fully understand her mood, and even felt that when I met my own Guosha in the future, I would say the same thing as her. In real life, we girls always fantasize that one day my sweetheart will come to marry me on a colorful auspicious cloud, and even think of how many children will be born in the future, and what kind of fairy tale picture books to read to them. At the same time, the reality is that it is very likely that you will never meet the person who knows you and understand you in your life, or when she/he appears, you are past the age of hope for love. And the great thing about this film is that he tells you that no matter how late that person appears in your life, when it does, you can feel the passion and beauty of love. And we can and should hold on to hope for a better future, wipe away our tears, and move forward bravely.

Good love and marriage are extremely important to a woman. "Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears", it made me see what women really believe in the face of the unknown in love and marriage.

    I went to the Russian Cultural Center for the first time. I saw Moscow and did not believe in tears. The boy next to him asked after the release, the subway station just now was Aleksandroskiy Sad, right? Is it the White House when Katerina meets her lover? The two girls stay together. That's the cultural man's apartment, right? I asked him, did you go to school there for many years, and he said: "I really want to go, but I just borrowed this atlas and looked at it and recognized it." What a genius!

    I've heard the name "Moscow Don't Believe in Tears" for a long time, I always thought it was a war movie, but I found out that it was a love movie after I ran into it on the CCTV movie station recently! And it's a great romance! ! Forty years ago, the Soviet Union was able to make a film with this modern concept, I am amazed, or, "amazing" to be more precise. Scumbags exist in any era, and there are countless women who have been abandoned by scumbags. There are always a few women who can constantly improve themselves and live out themselves like Katya. Her insight on life "life begins at forty" resonates deeply with me. It is inspiring to meet true love in middle age! She is like a role model for us single middle-aged women. She doesn't force or settle for relationships, and she doesn't give up easily when she meets the right person. "Why didn't I get married?" "Because I didn't meet you." I hope that one day in the future, I will be able to say this decades-old line to someone I love. ——2019/01/24, TV
