"Convince people with strength" instead of later "convince people with morals"

I like this scene. Including the chattering conversation. In the past, gangster men always said nonsense in every sentence like this in movies. Now that women do the same, the effect is different.
I was a little disappointed in the previous paragraph. But the fusion of music, dancing, and bar elements in Quentin's movies have always been so authentic, so even if they are disappointed, they are mediocre. A bit of returning to the essence of watching movies, seeing a girl with long legs and long hair as beautiful as Barbie, everyone is willing to forgive her for being rude or mentally retarded.
It is very interesting to compare the two parts before and after. The previous one was very boring, but it brought out the main relationship: a male stuntman, driving a car with King Kong, and targeting a swaggering hot girl. Death brings pleasure and escapes responsibility as much as possible. But the same elements are completely different in the second part. It seems to be saying that as long as women evolve, men will not continue to succeed, and they will die as badly as stupid women. Being killed, this matter is just a food chain.
The section where the swaggering hot girl actress wears boots in front of the yellow car is so cool and really makes me like it, so I thought, it must be her main goal to become a stand-in man in the end. Because of her bare feet, her tone is the most ostentatious.
The three actresses are waiting for Zoe at the entrance of the supermarket. This is the plot, which also brings out their identities. When Zoe appeared, the camera surrounded four people in the restaurant chatting (that is, chattering), I found myself still paying attention to the black girl in boots and the black girl in curly hair. When they evaluated the Australian female stunt Zoe, we still couldn’t see whether she had any What material. At least, the girl in pink T looks plain and good-tempered. But at this time, the blonde cheerleader actress Lee has clearly fallen into the pure blonde beauty type in the first half of the plot. When she was left with the car seller, I really thought it was funny. The relationship between these four women is very real. It seems that some people around me have concise but interesting conversations. (Of course, we don’t have such wild and hard-working car skills. We don’t even have the strength to crush a man)
Until the 1970 white paint car appeared in the second half and Zoe decided to convince everyone to let her fly solo, I still didn't know that Zeo was such a wild. People shouldn't look good. When her long legs are flying on the car hood and the wind blows her clothes under her chest, compared to this, anyone can think of the coolness of Barbie Black Girl's posture, the stupidity of drug abuse and crappy love. The coolness of adolescence... is fake, ridiculous, powerless, and it's easy to get killed.
The three women in the second half know at least how to protect themselves with guns, avenge revenge, and drive a car well-this is a major factor in confronting men. When Zoe rode on the car door like an ancient Roman fighter and waved a long iron rod, I was already laughing. It's really Quentin's kind of prestige, but this time there are no guns and knives, but a car.
The man cried bitterly, like a doll. But the three women didn't plan to let him go at all. When the car chasing scenes, the brutal fight scenes, and THE END freezes, I really find it super fun. The so-called retro filming recalls the purity and exaggeration of Hong Kong films in the 1970s, and worships Bruce Lee's era of "convincing people with strength" instead of later "convincing people with virtue". What could be more straightforward than this freeze frame.

Death Proof quotes

  • Abernathy: The answer to your question, is no, of course not.

    Zoë: What do you mean "no of course not?"

    Abernathy: The reason Cecil hasn't had a girlfriend in six years, is because girls will fuck him. And if you fuck Cecil, you don't become one of his girlfriends. Not to say I want to be his girlfriend, but if I did want to be his girlfriend, if I fucked him, I wouldn't be his girlfriend, I'd be one of his regulars. And I'm getting too fucking old for that shit.

    Zoë: Have you let him do anything?

    Abernathy: Yes! I've let him give me a foot massage, and when we go to the movies, I let him hold my hand.

    Kim: Bitch, you might be acting like you're twelve years old, but he is acting like a man. You need to break the nigga off a piece.

    Zoë: Let me get this straight, you're not fucking him, you're not sucking him, you're not giving him any tongue, but Darryl Hannah's stand in is?

    Abernathy: Okay, can we just take my sex life off the table?

    Zoë: Actually, it was Cecil's sex life that was on the table, and your lack of one.

    Kim: HAHA.

    Abernathy: Okay, fuck both of you and your little high five.

    Kim: Before you can claim a nigga, you got to claim a nigga. And you can start by giving the mother fucker a hand job on the back of the van on Tuesday.

    Abernathy: I'm not gonna do that.

    Kim: I know you won't, but you know who will? The bitch that ends up living in that big ass mansion of his.

    Lee: Now I gotta say, I haven't agreed with everything that Kim's said, but it is true, if you stretched it out what you have with Cecil, if you suddenly get dirty on him, it blows their minds...

  • Zoë: So what's your story, Abernathy?

    Abernathy: I had a set crush on Cecil.

    Kim: Set crush? Nigga please, you were his set wife.

    Abernathy: Were and Had being the key words here.

    Kim: Bitch, you two are still into each other, and you know it.

    Abernathy: Oh yeah? If he's still into me, then why did he fuck Darryl Hannah's stand in? Yes, men are dogs, oh it's so funny, oh it's so funny!

    Kim: Oh, stop acting all hurt, your ass is just mad.

    Abernathy: Yeah, he's a stand in fucker.

    Kim: Bitch, you need to get over that shit, that was two weeks ago.

    Abernathy: Oh, well now when you put it like that. Oh I haven't told you the best part, he fucked her on my birthday.

    Zoë: Oh, that's a horse of a different color.

    Abernathy: Thank you.

    Zoë: Did he know it was your birthday? I mean, he's the director, he's kinda busy.

    Abernathy: He ate a piece of my birthday cake, and he got me a present. Yeah, I think he knew.

    Zoë: What'd he get you?

    Abernathy: He made me a tape.

    Lee: He made you a tape? Wait, he didn't burn you a CD, he made you a tape? Oh, it's so romantic.

    Abernathy: I know what you're gonna say so don't even go there.

    Kim: That sounds like the test of true love to me.

    Abernathy: Look, I know you guys like him, he's likeable... but he fucked another woman on my birthday. How can you not be on my side?

    Zoë: Well, I admit, that sounds bad.

    Abernathy: It is bad!

    Zoë: It just sounds like there's a little more to it than that. Were you two fucking?

    Kim: Hell no!

    Abernathy: Hello, is your name Abernathy?
