Live Yourself

After watching the movie for three hours, I can say a few words.

This film is about marriage, with a gorgeous robe on the outside, uncovering the lice, especially in the middle step by step uncovering the various contradictions in the relationship between the two and the various ties of human weakness intertwined, separated and close, close It hurts and hurts, it's heartbreaking.

However, apart from showing the reality of married life, the most impressive thing is the author's exposure of the innermost psychological activities of the hero and heroine.

Heroine: Reunited after six months of separation from her husband, she reads her diary to her husband (who fell asleep...) and admits that she has been taught to be a woman who is obedient to others since she was a child , including low self-confidence, choosing a career according to the wishes of the family, and habitually pleasing others. In the scene where the two were about to sign the divorce agreement, she said hysterically that a big problem with failed marriages was that she paid too much attention to her husband's every move and emotional changes, which easily made her emotionally sensitive, and vice versa. To further stimulate the contradiction, on the other hand, it is easy to lead to a lack of self-awareness, and how can a person who does not care about himself let others care about you? So the husband had an affair. . . (The profound lesson is that groveling can't get respect and affection!) But after experiencing the male protagonist's extramarital affairs and bizarreness, she has the freedom of life and a more self-assured claim to life.

Actor: The interview at the beginning showed his "confidence", successful career and happy family. He not only has many hobbies, but also is very considerate of his family. Only "perfect" can be described. (Don't judge people by their appearance in the future.) Similar to the heroine, he has been playing the role of an adult man according to social expectations, and is also suppressing himself and pleasing others. And he is undoubtedly fragile in his bones. He cannot accept the evaluation of his poetry by his colleagues, and feels that he has been humiliated; he cannot understand the needs of his wife (in fact, he should still think that he is incompetent), and he cannot endure the long-term repression in marriage and choose to be with him. In fact, he knew in his heart that this was just a temporary escape. When he finally found that he couldn't bear the emptiness of being with his lover at all, he became restless and even irrational, unwilling to divorce, which fully demonstrated that he did not want to be divorced. Home, extreme fear of no home! In the end, he calmed down and admitted that what he did was not according to his own wishes, but the expectations of his parents!

In the trend of this marriage, the psychological states of the two are opposite. Divorce makes the female lead from weak to strong, and the male lead from strong to weak. After experiencing this change, no matter what, when they face themselves , at least more comfortable.

So, do you feel like living your life?
