eat buns

Many times, watching a movie is like eating steamed buns, taking one bite on the left and one on the right, accumulating the feeling of the dough and waiting for the meat filling. Just when I took a bite of the stuffing, my feelings about this bun finally came to a complete: Oh, this bun with cabbage stuffing! Oh, it turned out to be stuffed with chives! Oh, and there's a lot of meat. and so on.

North Country. The subject of sexual harassment, however, started from the failure of marriage and the blow of puberty, which made me have expectations for meat. A woman's way? A liberation of life in a broad sense? Single mother and child, father and daughter, friend, lover, love-hate contradiction, intricate human relationship, continue to live while reminiscing. Speaking extremely skillfully, methodically. However, the feeling has been lingering in the face, one bite at a time, accompanied by chaos. In this way, I watched the last court play, and when I saw those people stand up one by one, I remembered that classic joke: the stuffing is over.


It is said that Charlize Theron won the Hollywood Actress of the Year for this film, I am really surprised.




BTW In the part where Sammy was taught "just like she didn't give up on herself, she never gave up on you", I found that I left out the fifth kind of emotion: completely ignore this phenomenon when I'm crying, and continue Immerse yourself in the plot.

    The clue of the confrontation between father and daughter is the most important to me, because this part was shown on the day I was not absent. Sure enough, the cry of family affection is still the lowest, and all of a sudden, my nose is sour and my heart is wrinkled.

    Combined with the news that a president sexually assaulted his underage 14-year-old adopted daughter for four years, I was even more angry. The most unbelievable thing about news and videos like this is that there are always a group of women as women who, instead of being on the right side, speak out for male power. For example, the American TV series "Unbelievable"; for example, the female congresswoman in "Shame of Japan" "I think men are the ones who have been greatly hurt"; I thought everyone would be on her side." Another example is the female lawyer in the film. Women are just asking for equality. It's not that women shouldn't be in the job because of hard work, and it shouldn't be used as an excuse to sexually harass women at work. The last "Sweetheart Like You" sounded too warm, Bob Dylan's song was very healing, and the ending of the story was happy. The real adaptation makes me feel that the world is really full of evil, so I really hope that such a fairy tale will not be just an exception.
