The first is first love. The battle to lose Weiwei's first love, this blow to Weiwei is extremely painful. It can also be said that Weiwei's later life has been influenced by this accident.
The second is the relationship between husband and wife. Weiwei is married, of course not her first love. She couldn't escape the shadow of losing her first love, which was so unfair to her husband. But she met a man who loved her so much. From this point of view, Wei Wei is lucky and her husband is great. Her husband endured a lot for the marriage.
Again, the relationship between mother and child. The film mainly reflects the relationship between Weiwei and her eldest daughter, while ignoring the influence of Weiwei on other children. Weiwei's mental out-of-control has had a negative impact on her family, especially her children. The film mainly shows that her eldest daughter suffers from severe fear of marriage, and the crux is the psychological trauma that Weiwei, who is out of control, has brought to her children.
There is also the relationship between friends. The film reflects the friendship between women, and it is the kind of friendship that has a "gang" flavor. Although this is the focus of the title of the film, I personally think it is not the focus of the film. This "gang" flavor is just an embellishment.
In addition, the film also reflects religious issues. When Weiwei couldn't control herself, she thought of religion and hoped to be rescued from God. This is an important part of American society. But the film also reflects the limited influence of religion. Vivi's spiritual problems far exceed what religion can solve. Weiwei also had to resort to psychotropic drugs, which also backfired. Weiwei finally went crazy under the effect of the drug.
Last but not least, I want to talk about black people. The film takes place in the 1960s or earlier, when racial discrimination still existed in the United States. The film reflects Vivi's respect for black people.
In short, this film reflects the emotional and spiritual problems of a woman in the United States in the 1960s. The end of the film is heartwarming, the emotional hurt, and the mental mess are forgiven and released.
