A film review of "A Mother’s Revenge" a week, "God can’t be everywhere, so he created a mother." I first heard this sentence in "Please Answer 1988", and I heard it in this film. The feeling I came was completely opposite. 1. This film is adapted from the "Delhi Black Bus Case" that shocked India. After watching the film, people will pay more attention to this type of case. In addition, the only thing that can be experienced is maternal love, or women's Empathy for women. In India, where misogyny is prevalent, women themselves are the original sin. In the film, the first retaliated gangster said a paragraph to another man while drunk. It roughly means that a man can be born into a man in reincarnation for a few lifetimes, and a woman can be born in every reincarnation. Being a female is the most helpless fate. In my opinion, it is not so much a mother avenging her daughter (strictly speaking, a stepdaughter) as it is a woman's struggle against another woman. Not to mention, why is there such a serious aphasia in the middle-class family here? Only from the comparison of the father's and mother's reactions, it can be found that when the father uses all kinds of normal legal means to seek justice for his daughter, and finally to no avail , I can find that my father was helpless in the end, but gradually lost his idea of wanting to regain justice. Even if you love deeply, you can't empathize, and no one wants to live a peaceful life. The action taken by the heroine as a stepmother is the opposite. When she believes that the so-called law and the police are useless after all, she chooses to seek justice on her own. As a female, she can better understand her daughter’s pain. After learning the bad news for the first time, she clasped her arms, grabbed her abdomen in pain with one hand, hoarse, she can imagine her daughter’s pain, and it lies in her commitment to her husband. , She broke her trust, and her strong sense of responsibility and empathy prevented her from staying out of the matter. This is something that my father can't realize, and all his father's reactions reflect a sense of distance. 2. "What is this picture?" "This is Dopati washing her hair with Dusiah's blood, "Mahabharata", the oldest revenge story." The film makes extensive use of red costumes and canvases, etc. It constitutes a visual impact and strong hint: crime, violence, blood, and contrasts with "revenge" and blood for blood. The picture of the mother who went through the dyeing workshop's densely colored cloth during her first revenge is extremely impactful. And before the last climax, the mother stood on the mountain and faced the lightning and thunder with a lonely figure. There was a strong tendency for the rain to come, while the mother seemed to be deified, using hatred as a spear and a body as a shield. In terms of photography and lighting, it is worthy of praise. 3. There are many logical inconsistencies in the film There are many loopholes in the rationale, but only from the experience of watching movies, I don't think it is any worse than the "Three Billboards" of the same type. The intense drama conflicts coupled with unique Indian music is very catching. Even the little friends who must sleep in the movie, it is rare to watch the whole scene soberly, and discuss the plot from time to time (although the discussion is about the logic bug in it, haha ) To talk about loopholes, I would like to mention a few that are too obvious, that is, the detective’s motives only relied on having a daughter of the same age as the heroine’s daughter to give birth to such a big concern about this case, and even ended up being shot and killed. Background The support is too thin. This is one of them. When the police dealt with the case, they faced the four criminals who were about to be killed and the hostess's family. The measures they took were really puzzling and inconsistent with common sense. Can’t help but wonder if the director designed this to make it easier for the heroine to commit crimes, or to reflect the loopholes in the law and the incompetence of the police? Although the saying goes: "Justice may be late, but it will never be absent." Having said that, being late is not a good habit after all.
