Speaking of Indian movies, we have seen a lot of gods over the years.
"Uncle Monkey God" is warm and tearful, and love is boundless; "Starting Line" pays attention to education and pinpoints current malpractices; "Wrestling Dad" father and daughter are deeply affectionate and inspirational; "Fang Cun Zhi Love" criticizes housing prices, and laughs with tears...
The ability to tell a good story in the beautiful melody of singing and dancing is indeed the foundation of the success of Indian films. But the more important reason why these films have become popular is that Indians regard the camera as a sharp knife, cutting through all the stereotypes and bad habits under the surface of the glitz of society.
If the movies just mentioned are sharp social scalpels, then this 2016 film "Cry Pink" is like the mighty Machine Gun, directly blasting the foul feudal thoughts of India into powder.
The movie started with two parallel edited storylines, which drew the audience's appetites——
In a car are three girls who are still in shock, one of them is raining, as if he has been greatly wronged;
In a car were four boys in a hurry. One of them was bleeding, as if he had suffered an accidental injury.
Based on their continuous interlocking dialogues, the melon-eating people suddenly realized.
It turns out that these couples of men and women have a late-night friendship. I never thought that the boys stretched out the salted pig's hand through the spirit of wine. One of the girls picked up the wine bottle in desperation, injured the tall and mighty brawny, and then pulled the little sisters. Escaped in a hurry. The boys who failed to cook the raw rice for mature rice had to rush to the hospital with the injured.
If this is the case, then the behavior of the girls, no matter how they look at it, is a normal and legitimate defense; and the boys are undoubtedly scumbags after drinking.
It is a pity that this incident took place in the magical India, so the following story will unfold even more magically.
The assaulted girls are like wrongdoers, hiding in the apartment all day long and dare not go out;
But the boys arrogantly called, asking the girls to apologize, even they bite back and framed them as unscrupulous women and threatened the landlord to sweep them out.
The panicked girl was scared because the boy she injured was a second-generation official who claimed that his uncle was Li Gang, but he was more like Indian Li Tianyi.
However, the three independent and self-improving girls did not blindly give in. They were irritated by the boys' foul language, and on the phone they rebuked this despicable act of splashing dirty water.
But the girls soon saw the darker side of Indian society, which is more sordid.
The girl was kidnapped and kidnapped in the park first, and several boys abused her body in every possible way. In desperation, they chose to report to the police, but as victims they were rigorously educated by the police. Serious women should not go to these places of right and wrong.
What's even more speechless is that the second-generation boy was beaten down and the defendant became the plaintiff. He claimed that he kindly invited the girl to eat and drink, but was almost blinded, so he sued the girl for deliberate murder and was suspected of engaging in illegal sex trafficking.
In this kind of no-fuck talk, the girl goes to jail and is about to face ten years in prison, and her two good girlfriends, as accomplices, also have to serve half a year each.
Fortunately, this human tragedy, even worse than Dou E, was seen by a mysterious old man.
This old man who needs to wear a gas mask when he goes out, dressed quite like a Naruto, is an ace lawyer who has been washing his hands for many years. As a neighbor, seeing the girls being pushed to the brink of collapse, the old man could not bear to finally re-emerge and stand on the court.
The story in the second half of the movie is completely focused on the trial. The prosecution and the defense are as exciting as the American dramas we have seen.
The prosecution bald lawyer invited countless witnesses just to prove one point. The girls voluntarily walked into the boys’ room that night to drink and have fun. Considering their financial constraints, the girls undoubtedly looked for a suitable target with a strong sense of purpose. Then, using beauty as a bargaining chip, he proposed a transaction of using money in exchange for the body.
And a white-haired old man relentlessly fought back. Does it mean that as long as the girls dress stylishly, smile, and accept invitations, does it mean that men can do whatever they want in the future?
He even complained about the straight male cancer thinking in Indian male society. In real life, once girls perform the above behaviors, they are labelled as "prostitutes" in their hearts.
One of the most shocking words penetrated the bodies of all the men present:
No, Means No!
No, not a word or a word, but a complete sentence. When a girl says no, it means that the boy should stop immediately.
The girl has the right to smile at you, to accept the invitation, and to chat and drink with you, but this does not mean that you have the right to continue to violate her body when she says No.
Gu Meimen said that "the winner is justice", then in this movie, the victory of the final acquittal means not only justice, but also a cry for awakening hundreds of millions of Indian women to stand up and fight.
There is no one second of singing and dancing in the story of "Fright in Pink" for more than two hours, and it is not as serious as an Indian movie.
It started from an accident caused by a friendship between men and women, and reached the most unbearable pain of women in Indian society, and at the same time nailed Indian men on the pole of shame. Perhaps the film’s narrative rhythm is a bit slow, and the emotional incitement is too long, but this unparalleled courage alone is worthy of a hundred stars for "Horror in Pink".
Girls can learn to protect themselves in this movie, but I think it’s all men from all over the world, including China, who should watch this movie.
Only when a man stops a hand that shouldn't be stretched out, the girls can be truly safe and respected!
