When I first encountered this movie, I thought it was a very mysterious film. After watching it, I found it was a surreal social life film. The main line of the movie is actually the protagonist being hired to investigate a bizarre disappearance 40 years ago. Since it is a detective film, the logic of its plot is more difficult to capture. Here, leaving aside the entangled plot and relationship between the characters, only the heroine starts to see what message the film conveys to the audience.
The heroine in the film, Salander, is an ordinary girl with a miserable fate. However, the whole film does not introduce the girl’s life experience. Only in the second half of the film did she tell from the girl’s own mouth that she nearly burned her biological father to death due to "mental" problems when she was a child. Since then, she has been wandering around and frequently changing guardians. life. But in fact, the guardian is only in name. S has been asking for a living on her own since she was 10 years old. That's why she likes getting tattoos and earrings everywhere on her body and protecting herself in this way. I think she is strong enough from this point of view. At least she hasn't been overthrown by life. Instead, she gets up again and again and wants to ride on the head of life to let the world see how independent and wonderful she is. As we saw at the beginning, S appeared in front of the audience with an extremely different dress and mental state, which made people unbelievable that this is the protagonist that this movie is about to introduce to us. However, after watching the movie and looking at the film reviews, I found that the selection of the heroine has also waste a lot of energy. Obviously, the director intends to make this character stand out and shine. Sure enough, the starring Rooney Mara was nominated for Best Actress in the 11 Golden Globe Awards for this movie, and Rooney himself often shoots some strange-looking roles, which may be related to her aloof and arrogant temperament. . Anyway, this kind of girl, whether in reality or in a movie, there will still be many people who want to explore, understand, and appreciate. For example, the actor Blomkvist in the film is one of them.
Blomkvist probably had the urge to learn about S at first sight. Because of his outrageous sense of justice and curiosity, he almost ruined him. But it was precisely in this way that he was taken by his employer to investigate the disappearance 40 years ago, and he was able to meet a mysterious girl like S. But in the end he didn't cherish it. At the end of the film, the scene where S rode away on a motorcycle is unavoidably disappointing and regrettable. I thought that S was going to live a normal life. There was a boyfriend who knew how to cherish himself, but he did not expect it to be another fantasy. Disappeared, which made S rekindle his anger towards life, and then the second "Girl Playing with Fire" appeared. . .
In short, no matter what the fate of this girl is, what the audience should see is this girl's unyielding attitude of challenging life, which is worthy of the optimism of the majority of innocent young people. There is a saying that goes well: "Life has pitted me thousands of times, and I treat life like first love." Even if you have a temper to let people know you exist, don't bear it and be silent. Make it different! This is the true meaning of life.
