never give in

As I get older, I really want to cry when I see everything. The most touching thing to me is that the father of the female protagonist in the association stood up and sat at the dining table with the family of three. More than ten years passed in a flash. The things that were afraid to say in those days, in the same place, the family felt relieved, just like a flash. It's just a dream, everyone is still sitting here, but the heroine's mother is also very strong, and ran away from home to protest her father's attitude and behavior.

To be honest, it is indeed not as good as "Never Compromise". From the perspective of women rising up, the description of this film is not as profound as "Never Compromise", but the ending feels a little rushed, and was just called The feeling was very instant, the climax was very short, and I felt that the case was over after it started to be difficult. On the contrary, it is more about the role of the heroine as a mother and a daughter, but the heroine has a very good character, dares to love and hate, resolutely leaves the domestic abuser, and also loves her children. real.

But at first, I didn't think she was good-looking. Intuitively, she was so, but when she was with other people, she was more attractive. I felt sorry for her experience. She was sexually assaulted by a high school teacher and gave birth to a child to raise alone. She knows how to tell her parents, and it is true that she can’t argue when sexual harassment occurs. She dares to fight when the right and wrong are clear, but I have always wondered whether there is something unique about people who have always been good-looking since childhood. The troubles, like her high school teacher or more sexual harassment, plus the incidents of bullying beautiful girls that I know, make life difficult for everyone.

The man who works in the mine really sees the woman as if he has never seen it before. Every thing he does is more disgusting. The toilet is facing Shirley, putting his semen on the women's clothes and painting them in the women's changing room. Shit insults, is this what people do? The sentence that the heroine said, "I don't know if I will be raped when I go to work" is really true. It is indeed too unequal in terms of work rights. Even the female lawyer is discriminated against and the management is all male. It's really good to be able to get to this point under the circumstances.

Although I don't like Sam, it's true that the problem between him and his mother really occurs in many families, mainly because of lack of communication, but the friend who enlightened him is really good, the reason is easy to understand and It is easy to listen to, this is very NICE. By the way, there is also that male lawyer, who always feels a little weird. The strange appearance seems to be for the person who appeared in this case. When the latter agreed to take the case and pressed Bobby, he only felt a little bit of emotion. , it will be gone soon, and even the high school teacher, a character who can ignite everyone's emotions, feels that it has been replaced a little faster. After the heroine's father beat the high school teacher and was kicked out of the court, the heroine resolutely walked out of the courtroom. I didn't know what to do at that moment to tell the truth. I felt so inexplicable. After all, walking out like this in life feels quite inexplicably.

All in all, the whole movie is ok, just won't watch it a second time.

    The courtroom drama was unfortunately simplified, and a large part of the disputes between the two sides became the heroine's personal narrative. Maybe also an advantage? After all, it is very uncomfortable to watch under Theron's excellent performance. I saw that the heroine was stupid. It's true that she didn't tell her parents when she was sexually assaulted by a teacher, and she naively thought that the big boss would help her when she was molested by her peers, but she said no when she was oppressed by the opposite sex and rejected by the same sex. of bravery.
