Every man has a lily in his heart

In this way, watching an artist couple's happy sexual life was ruined by a pair of sexy stockings, killing themselves.

The little freckles are really beautiful in women's clothes. During the viewing process, I was constantly amazed by the acting skills of Little Freckles. Every move made me feel very ashamed as a woman. Of course, I also feel that the name of "freckle" is worthy of the name = =.

Watching the part between Lily and Henrik, I had a very aggressive physique. I thought I would play a straight man with soy sauce, but I never thought that it would be Homosexual in the end, and sighed while holding my forehead. . .

The most emotional part of the whole film should be what Lily said to Henrik.
Body and spirit are separate, especially for transgender, that feeling is like living underwater all the time, pretending to deceive all the time in life, deceiving others is also deceiving yourself, consciously playing a certain role, knowing deeply. That's not the real me. Lily is like that, trapped in Einar's body all the time, or rather, Lily has been playing the role of Einar, Lily has been there, and the sexy stockings wake Lily and get out of control and eventually "killed" Einar. Every man has a lily in his heart, and everyone has a heterosexual self in his heart, but few people will pursue their true self as bravely as the male protagonist (I can't tell the difference, I don't know whether it is EInar or Lily) , and at a time when no one had undergone sex reassignment surgery. However, if the ego of the opposite sex is not strong enough, it will not take that step. As for the strength of the opposite-sex self, it is related to many factors. Lily may never wake up, or she is willing to pretend to be deceived due to the pressure of the social environment, or she struggles to pursue her true self.

Of course, the relationship between Gerda and Einar/Lily is also the focus of the whole film. The more Gerda accompanies and takes care of Einar/Lily, the more pitiful he becomes after he loses Einar.

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.
