Sofia is very tenacious, resolute, and has a unique personality.
Three films have been screened. If "The Bicycle Thief" is a typical neo-realist style, then from last week's "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow", including today's one and next week's "Second Moon". ", De Sica's three films have all turned to comedy and relatively mild realism, which is called "rose-colored realism" by some foreign researchers; The film has also begun to use big stars - the three films are all starring Sofia Loren and Marcelo Mastroiani, who are absolutely top brands. Audiences who like Sofia Loren can enjoy her 5 out of the three films in a row. Brilliant performances by different characters (including three characters in last week's piece with three short films). Today's film Sofia plays Ferumena, although she is a prostitute, she is fighting for her legal rights or basic rights as a wife, a mother, or a dignified woman. Still very tenacious, resolute, but also has a unique personality, and sometimes even some tricks. The character image is established, and there is the work of the director, but Roland's performance or artistic shaping is full and very successful. We dedicate this year's female "March" to Sofia Loren by watching De Sica's film. Today, Mrs. Wang took the initiative to take the record of the discussion. She is not very healthy. We should thank her first. Please share your views on the film below.
Women are always in a disadvantaged position
Yang Yuehui: The world is full of wonders. This story also has its rationality, as long as the shooting is good, I think it will be fine. I watched the Iranian film "A Parting", which won this year's Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. I felt that it was not easy for such a country to make this film, and it was very good. Watching today's film, the general feeling is: women are always in a disadvantaged position, so society still needs certain guarantees for them.
Fan Daming: There can be no Women's Day.
Women can't rely on men all their lives
Pan Siyue: From a woman's point of view, the film still has a good result at the end, which is considered a good death. But this film is actually sad, because in the end, the male protagonist changed only because he learned that her child has a son of his own, and the story also had a turning point. Women are tragic characters after all. So, I don't think women can rely on men all their lives. Of course, it's okay to put hope in love.
If I knew that I had three sons like this, I would be very happy
. Fan Daming: From the point of view of the film's insistence on safeguarding the rights and interests of women, this film is still a bit feminist. Of course, the director himself is not a woman. He expressed it from his male point of view, after understanding the rights and interests of women. In fact, from the standpoint of the hero, if I am the hero, when I know that I have three (or even one of them) dignified big boys all of a sudden, he or they are my own sons. , what a joy this must be! If I knew I had three sons like this, I would be very happy, or rather happy.
Sofia Roland is similar to our Chinese Pan Hong
Wang Xiling: these three sons, for both parties, can actually be said to be windfalls. Speaking of Sofia Loren as the heroine, you all like it, but I don't really like it very much. I think she is similar to Pan Hong from China. She has a strong personality in life, and she goes her own way.
Material, the stipulating role of marriage is undeniable
He Ji: In fact, the male protagonist still has a somewhat tolerant mentality. In the end, the more sons, the better, not just for that one son. The movie talks about the status of women. But here, there is always something that can be turned into matter, such as a house or something. I think it is undeniable that there is no super-material pure spiritual love - material, to have a defining role in marriage.
Fan Daming: Thank you for staying for the discussion. Time is running out, and that's all for today. I hope you will see the "Sunflower" starring their two male and female protagonists next week - that is, "The Second Moon".
