Look at the spaghetti necklace they made for their mother,

She is exhausted. In my room, we drank some green tea together and decided to go to Chatelet to watch the premiere of "Tomboy". We continued to fight along the way. I never thought that I would be able to talk and fight with a Frenchman who was so French and English. At her request, we sat in the third row. The movie would not be too comfortable, but I clearly saw the director and two leading actors who came to the scene. When I was applauding, I also wanted to tell Salome that you must applaud very hard, because after all, this is another excellent work by a female director.

I watched these two little girls play games, watched the spaghetti necklace they made for their mother, watched her make herself boys’ swimming trunks and plasticine as a "penis"-sure enough, no need to eat, no need to kill, still able to Tell exciting stories. This lies in the role setting. The conflict of the story lies in the inner contradiction of the protagonist. Her sister, her mother, her "little lover", and her playing partner, in the first half of the film, all indirectly highlight the inner contradiction of the protagonist, who are basically the protagonist. Show the audience the process of contradictions and conflicts, and show them through the simplest details of life. These details are probably captured through the eyes of female directors.

This is not a new subject, but a new way of telling stories. There is only one piece of music from the environment in the whole film, and the sound of the environment penetrates the texture of life at other times. There are no huge changes in scenes and characters, so the contradictions in the drama become very concentrated. The director has a good grasp of certain scenes. While showing the stereotype, he also challenges the stereotype.
