From the poster, I thought it would be a relaxing movie. White girls couldn't understand people's discrimination against black maids, writing books and fighting, and some interesting stories happened in the middle. The film does not portray the cruelty of racism from the front, and it is full of humor everywhere, but it is really uneasy. Those seemingly short stories in the parents naturally show the helplessness and helplessness of the black maids. They are not all kind and honest, but they appear to be very real. Regarding their stories, there are no fierce conflicts. For example, Minney was fired for using the owner’s toilet secretly, but the owner of the Yule Mae family was in trouble but refused to borrow money, so he stole the owner’s ring and was arrested. Some people may be dismissive. Say, cut, it's such a small matter, and even some people must think that things should be like this. But when a single event like this or similar happens every day, every moment, every family, every black maid in this southern town, and everyone takes it for granted, you will really be They also felt sad at that time.
The main characters in the film have stories in their bodies, which are different and intertwined to form a small climax in the plot, which grabs me tightly. Tears can also be seen everywhere. Aibileen takes care of the little girl and teaches her: you is kind, you is smart, you is important. One day, the little girl actually lay on her body and said softly: you are my real mama, Aibee. And the story of the heroine and their housemaid Constantine, etc., all made me a lot of tears. Me and I really like the story of the white heroine Skeeter and his boyfriend in the movie. From the moment they met in love, the man loved her uniquely. He agreed with her writing and encouraged her to do what she thought was right. As a result, she wrote a book. As soon as it was published, he was furious. Judging from what he said, the difference between him and Skeeter was fundamental. The so-called support and hope of the two people in the past could be obliterated for this difference. This turning point is really wonderful.
This movie reminds me of a movie called Resting Place that I watched a long time ago. It talked about a colonel who was responsible for sending the body of an officer back to his hometown and holding a funeral. However, he found that it was opposed by the local residents and the government. The reason is that the sacrificed officer was a black man. In comparison, the ability to see the big from the small is very lacking in Chinese movies. It usually talks about war directly with war and talks about love with love. So often it is necessary to spend a lot of money, or fall short of conventional wisdom, or both. Both. Well, I just saw the photos of the Berlin Film Festival, so I just wanted to complain about "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".
