I watched a movie "Woman of the 20th Century" today. The movie is set in the United States in the 20th century. The protagonists are 55-year-old Dorothea and her 15-year-old son Jamie, as well as their guests and friends. A mother gave birth to his son at the age of forty. This should be regarded as an advanced parturient. She was born in 1924 and her son was born in 1964. They are 40 years old, and they have a good understanding of the world. Vastly different. With the arrival of her son’s puberty, Dorothea will find that the gap between her son and her is getting bigger and bigger. She doesn’t understand his rock music at all, and he doesn’t understand what her son is thinking. She thinks she can’t. Enter his world, so she asked tenant Abby and Jamie's good friend Julie to help him get to know the world. In such a process, Abby has been helping Jamie understand feminism and let him understand the world of women. She thinks that this can actually help him become a better man. In the end, many things have changed, but it seems that everyone has a good home. Actually, I didn’t understand what the film wanted to express. Maybe it’s because I didn’t know much about the United States in the 20th century, so I didn’t want to judge the film as good or bad in a half-bucket state. , I can only say that I will express some of my own views and opinions at the moment. Maybe one day in the future, after I have this experience, when I watch this film again, I will have a different view. ! I think what this film wants to express is probably that under the changes of the times, there will be a big generation gap between parents and children, especially when children continue to grow up and their sense of self-independence is awakened, just like a drama. Jamie in China, when they want to change from a boy to a man, they will experience a lot of things, both mentally and physically, they will usher in tremendous changes. So in such a process, what should parents and children do? Think about it, do you want to give them independent space, or participate in it to help them through this period? It seems that there is no standard answer to this question. But in my opinion, I think parents still have to communicate more with their children and try to understand their world. Perhaps their experience can inspire children and guide them to grow in the right direction. In this process, you should no longer treat them as children, but treat them as adults who can talk on an equal footing. Perhaps in this way, an effective communication can be achieved.
