Maybe movies always magnify the unfortunate things and ignore the good things in life, so as to win the public topic. But there are girlfriends who can see through human feelings and sigh at me. Among the friends I know, no family is truly happy, and there are scars that cannot be seen in the distance. But I think that perfect happiness may only be found in fairy tales, but imperfect happiness can also be found. If perfection and happiness must be equated, then life must be only pain and misfortune.
Unfortunately, not everyone thinks this way, so there will be many people who are dissatisfied and tired of family life because life is so imperfect. So, everything has a reason and a beginning.
As a mother, Sarah is a woman with a high self-esteem, and she does not want to identify herself with other housewives in the community, she always feels that she is different from them. Although, there is nothing special about her, and because of her aloofness, her daughter is also particularly lonely. But people are always reluctant to admit their ordinary, admitting their ordinary is a very disappointing thing, most people will attribute their mediocrity to being born out of time or underappreciated, and Sarah is the same. She started teasing Brad not because she liked the man, but because the other housewives liked him. She wants to win among women, and she wants ordinary women to admit their differences.
Of course, as the story develops later, Sarah was stimulated by her husband's behavior. She had the behavior she wanted at the bottom, and she seemed justified to buy a red swimsuit to seduce a man. At the reading meeting, Sarah's admiration for Madame Bovary was actually an excuse for her derailment. She turned herself into Madame Bovary. She hoped that her derailment was not just the pursuit of desire, but a higher level. struggle for life. This is a very hypocritical but also very real human nature. People always find reasons for their mistakes subconsciously.
Strictly speaking, Sarah is not a good mother. She pays more attention to herself than to her daughter. She ignores her daughter's feelings for her own pleasure. In the end, she even wants her daughter to leave her superior living environment and be displaced with her. . But after all, she loves her daughter deeply, but the short-term burning passion made her ignore her daughter's feelings. In the end, it was her love for her daughter that awakened her and allowed her to return to the family.
Kate Lewinsky's acting skills are quite skilled, and she plays the mentality of a derailed woman profoundly and smartly. Especially in some detail performances, I am very optimistic about her among the actresses of this generation. Although she has been nominated for the Oscar for five times, but she missed her, but I believe that in the near future, the golden statue will definitely belong to her.
Brad in the movie is a "prom prince", a man who has not grown up and lacks responsibility. He has a super-excellent wife, and in the light of his wife, he appears useless and insignificant, and he has no authority over his son. He is reluctant to read books to prepare for exams. I think on the one hand, he is not mature at all and refuses to take responsibilities in society. On the other hand, because his wife's strength makes him feel inferior, so he rebelliously resists his wife's expectations, just like a child Mother's rebellion. His dependence and rebellion on his wife may be related to the early death of his mother, who left his carefree teenage life too early, so after he became an adult and married, he took the family that he should have taken up as a safe haven and continued to My unfinished teenage dream.
With Sarah, he got a valued satisfaction that he couldn't get with his wife. It's the satisfaction of winning cheers on the football field, making him feel like he's not so useless. In fact, he couldn't leave his wife at all. Without her, he was like a child leaving his mother. How could he live? He wanted to elope, but it was also out of impulse, like a child who wanted to go on an outing on a whim, and said it without any plan or arrangement. It's funny enough to run around the street with luggage when you elope. What's even more funny is that you forgot your purpose during the elopement and played skateboarding with the teenagers leisurely. This is really a child who hasn't grown up. A useless man who can't figure out the seriousness and the seriousness of things. But he is not a bad person. He is kind and friendly, and he is very careful with children. He is also very frank and candid. Except for the cheating with Sarah, which makes him feel a little guilty, he can be very calm about everything else. face, including their own soft rice. So, in this respect, he is a very lovely man, no, it should be said that he is a very lovely big boy. It is precisely because of this that women like him.
The love between Sarah and Brad may not be called love. This kind of relationship arises not because of how attractive they are to each other, but more because they are both too boring and they both need the stimulation of new things. This kind of stimulation will make them feel the fresh air again, and feel the joy of mutual temptation. They were in a state of being ready to cheat at all times. If Sarah met Peter or Jude instead of Brad, the story would have the same development, so they didn't have a deep emotional foundation, more More is the fanatical illusion of burning passion. I believe that after that special night, they will calm down and realize how ridiculous they are, and then slowly return to life until the next time the loneliness is unbearable.
I am not very familiar with the actor who plays Brad, and I feel that his performance is relatively ordinary, and there is nothing particularly surprising to me. This actor has a bit of British flavor, and it always reminds me of Jude Law, maybe because Jude Law is also good at playing such small white faces.
The characters that moved me the most in the movie were the pervert man ronald and his mother. Ronald is a very tragic character, as his mother said, you have done wrong, but you are not a bad person. However, the eyes of society are not as tolerant as his mother. When he swims underwater with fins and diving goggles, his expression is very special, like the happy expression of a child when he steals food. Unfortunately, this kind of happiness is not recognized by the world. Tolerable, because of the wrong things he had done, he even lost the right to cool off in the swimming pool.
Because of the world's eyes and hatred, Ronald completely lost confidence in himself and began to give up on himself, so he did that on a date with a woman who clearly had a crush on him. Maybe he was thinking that instead of spurning him when she knew the truth, it would be better for her to spurn him now. For Ronald, hope is a pain. The only person in the world who loves him unconditionally is his own mother. When his mother left, he was very helpless, he lost his support, but his mother left him a last word to be a good child. Ronald didn't know how to be a good boy who was recognized by others, so he chose the most extreme way. When he picked up the knife and rushed out, I didn't expect it to end like this. This ending shocked me. Does mistrust between people have to be solved in such an extreme way?
Ronald's mother is the greatest mother in the entire movie. In her eyes, her son will always be a boy, a lovely boy. Although he has done those wrong things, she still loves him and understands him. Every time someone wanted to hurt her son, she would spread her weak wings like an old hen to protect her child. Although her strength is very weak, she has never been afraid or flinched. Every time I see her lying on the ground with white hair wiping paint and fighting against people, I am very moved. What she needed for such a move was not courage, but love, her love for her son, the greatest love in the world. This kind of love, I think, can be experienced by every mother in the world.
I think it is inappropriate to change the Chinese translation of "little children" to "Being a Mother". I think Little children has such a meaning, these characters in the movie, Salad, Ryder, ronald, are all little children in this movie, they all live under the protection of their families, and then experience setbacks and life to grow. Sarah and Brad grew up when their elopement failed, and Ronald grew up when their mother died. And "Being a Mother" weakens this meaning and focuses on the mother. I think it is not as meaningful as the original name.
From the movies back to life, we all have childishness in each of us, but fortunately, we have our parents or lovers who love us tolerantly, and at the same time, we are also loving our lovers and child. Love is mutual, but whether it is as little children who are loved or as mothers or fathers who give love, I think this is a kind of happiness.
