Feminism trapped by love

The old drama bone Glenn Cross was pressed by Myrtle Streep every year in the awards season. This year, she used her strong acting skills to accurately interpret the role of the wife of the Nobel Prize winner in "The Good Wife". In fact, I think that the heroine who should be given to her this year should be her.

This is the story of the American version of "The Aardmans", which is different from the sharp, free and easy French film. "The Good Wife" interprets this similar story, and it will appear more lifelike. In an absolutely patriarchal social order in the publishing world,

No matter how talented Joan is, he can't speak for himself. She met Joe, and she was willing to be silent for this man. He even did not hesitate to join her husband behind the scenes and became the most effective assistant in his career and life. But the scumbag husband, who is dissolute by nature, brings her infidelity in love, dependence on career, and care for life.

Joan is a standard literary woman, she believes in love, she takes care of the family, and can give everything for her husband and family. Unfortunately, in front of her husband's vanity, he was hurt again and again. The role of Joan is extremely complicated. She longs for the honor of literature, but she also has an attitude of literature and art. For love, she can ignore it, and she always takes into account the decency of intellectuals. This kind of forbearance, like an unhealed old wound, will always ache because of her husband's irregularity. Love has become an obligation at the top of her heart. Although she is injured, she instinctively wants to maintain the harmony of the whole family. Glenn Cross and Jonathan Pryce, the rival scenes of the two old actors have become the most enjoyable part of the whole movie. I always feel that they really seem to have lived a lifetime, and their god-level lines skills are inadvertent. The momentary ups and downs of emotions are completed in time, making the plot extremely real. A good movie worth watching!

The Wife quotes

  • Joan Castleman: I am a kingmaker.

  • Joan Castleman: I can't do it anymore, Joe. I can't do it. I can't take it. I can't take the humiliation of holding your coat and arranging your pills and picking the crumbs out of your beard and being shoved aside with all the other wives to talk about some goddamn shopping trip while you, while you say to all the, the gathering sycophants that your wife doesn't write! Your wife, who just won the Nobel Prize!

    Joe Castleman: So, if I'm such an insensitive and talentless fucking piece of shit, why the fuck did you marry me?
