The film begins with an enviable couple of painters, talented, rich and famous. The difference between the two is that einar is the attention-grabbing and praised painter, while Gerda is a painter who lives in the shadow of einar's talent and an ordinary woman who loves einar deeply.

In the painting exhibition where einar was highly praised, Gerda's eyes showed a trace of loss, and in a flash he returned to the little woman who was happy for her husband. When returning home in the evening, Gerda laughed and mocked on the street, praising Einar for being a flamboyant person at the exhibition, but being able to be intimate with Einar. Gerda has been contradictory, Einar has been very good.

At a friend's party, as a model husband, Einar expressed his love for Gerda unashamedly and straightforwardly. When it comes to the encounter between the two, it was unexpectedly Gerda who took the initiative. Gerda said I was sure, I still am, The later einar also seemed to be moved by Gerda's sureness. From here, we know that Gerda is the one who is sure from start to finish, while einar is more of a passive sure.

The turning point of the story is that einar is asked by Gerda to be her model lili, and the appearance of lili makes Gerda, whose paintings are sluggish, see hope and affirmed hope, completely unaware that the quietly awakened lili is about to replace einar. It wasn't until Einar with women's clothes went to the ball and saw Einar kissing a man that she suddenly changed from a painter's dream to an ordinary woman who loved Einar deeply, knowing that things had changed irreversibly.

After that, Gerda kept contradicting between love and career. She longed for the prosperity of her career, but she also longed for the love of einar. The success of the former must lose einar.

In fact, Gerda was always conflicted from beginning to end. She repeatedly struggled between her career and love. At the beginning, she enjoyed the pure love of her lover, but her career was unhappy; later, she enjoyed the success of her career and loved Einar, who was worried about gains and losses. ; Later, she struggled between loving Einar and Lili, choosing between big love and little love. Until finally, she accepted llili and released lili.

Women are inherently emotional animals, Gerda is always a slave for love, and Lili, who was born as a man, is just a woman, who will look forward to love and marriage and take risks for a possible future. Women, women, emotional and tiring, if you can be free and easy, how can you be a woman.

The Danish Girl quotes

  • Dr. Hexler: Tell me about Lili... Where did she come from?

    Einar Wegener: Inside of me.

  • Gerda Wegener: It's hard for a man to be looked at by a woman. Women are used to it, of course, but for a man to submit to a woman's gaze - it's unsettling. Although I believe there's some pleasure to be had from it, once you yield.
