I'm a bad woman, what's up?

"I'm a bad woman, what's up?"

I used to call this woman Harley Quinn because she and the Joker seemed like a match made in heaven, but now that I've watched Birds of Prey, I prefer to call her Harley Quinn.

She is who she is, I believe she is not crazy because of the clown, she is so true in her nature. She didn't become a "bad woman" because of the clown. She had the charm of a "villain" who dared to do anything wrong.

That little brat thief asked her in the supermarket, how can I be you? I like the way you look.

She said you're going to be a psychiatrist after your Ph.D. in psychiatry, then fall in love with a mental patient, help him escape, fall in love with him, and then break up. (The original story is longer and more complete)

She was already a superior woman by the standards of the middle class and the elite, with a decent education and a decent job, but she had to get out of it and become a bad woman, rob supermarkets, and openly step on parties at parties. Break the knees of people who offend her, go to improvised bombing of chemical plants, go to single-handedly overturn the police station.

I love this bad woman to death.

Her iconic exaggerated expressions are unique in DC, like bringing her own BGM, walking like a wind, like a drama actress who has to live so dramatic.

Cute, right
This contrast

I have been disciplined too deeply by society, and I am covered with the shackles of public order and good morals. Even if I deliberately broke my shackles before, I have not been able to be as unrestrained, so free, and arrogant as Harley Quinn. I don't dare and don't want to do what the outside world says is hurtful, and Harley Quinn almost symbolizes the righteous and evil, sexy, hot, daring, and neurotic personality in everyone.

Why is she sexy?

God, unleashing the villain's nature is the sexiest thing in the world, okay?

Don't be afraid of the villains doing bad things, just be afraid that the villains have principles. In the end, she didn't bully the thief child or take revenge on the old restaurant man who betrayed her and whom she regarded as a friend in her wishful thinking (I thought she would rush up to give the old man a headshot).

In this way, she handed all the audience a business card, "I'm a bad woman, how?"
