Don't just say that fat girls will have low self-esteem, everyone in the competitive social environment will have low self-esteem, and there are differences in degree.
The film is too ideal for fat girls to be noticed by others, and their figure is directly proportional to their sense of existence. This is unrealistic and makes it easy for people to play. I used to be friends with fat girls in the student stage, and tried to date with fat girls. In retrospect, it doesn’t feel good to me, because they don’t believe that the friendship or even love with you is real, and they show it. It's too obvious that I will feel hurt. Of course, this is a separate person, regardless of fat, thin, beautiful or ugly. It's a pity that I met people with a deep inferiority complex.
Of course, people with a fat body and a normal appearance need self-confidence. This film promotes this positive energy and it is understandable. The biggest problem is that it over-beautifies the politically correct choice. At first, the fat girl said that she wanted to revolutionize the beauty pageant, anti-high heels or something, but in the end she thanked her for the existence of the beauty pageant. It exercised her self-confidence and did not change. On the contrary, it emphasized that this beauty contest must exist. . Her so-called growth occurred in such an ideal, and real life will become cruel indifference.
So how should the story of the fat girl's confidence be filmed? "Hairspray" is very good. The fat girl recognizes her talents and is full of justice against apartheid. The story of her growth is more inspiring.
