Marlo had already suffered from postpartum depression when she gave birth to her second child. In order to make her feel more relaxed after the third child, her brother hired a night nanny for her. So Tully appeared. (But Tully is actually A personality from her schizophrenia, representing the free spirit of Marlo when she was young. When Tully first arrived at her house, she took off her coat to reveal her flat belly. It is not difficult to imagine how envious Marlo was. Marlo gave the child to her. After giving her to go upstairs to sleep, Tully used the sentence "And so to bed" in an English classic to say goodnight to her, while Marlo, who graduated from English literature major, was confused. Tully is full of energy, not only helping her to take care of her children , also cleaned the room and even made cupcakes. (In fact, Marlo made the cupcakes by herself. She took the cupcakes to her son's school for the children to eat, and told them that the cakes were nut free, how would they know if they didn't make them by herself) In Tully's Under the care, Marlo gradually recovered. At this time, Tully asked her to go to a bar for a drink, and then made a decision to leave. On their way home after drinking, Marlo had a car accident because of drunkenness and fatigue. The doctor asked her husband Marlo Do you have a history of mental illness, and she also said that she is severely sleep-deprived. Marlo's husband still thinks it is very strange, hasn't her sleep improved a lot since having a night-time nanny? Finally, on the day I went out to drink, I couldn't hold it anymore and caused a car accident. Later, when Marlo's husband registered her information, she said that her name was Tully before marriage. Many people should have realized that the heroine was schizophrenic at this time. Looking back, I think the director did not deliberately hide the fact that she was schizophrenic. In fact, there are traces of this film from beginning to end. When people reach middle age, we always think of the free and uninhibited self when we were young. How good we are, how present, how eccentric we are, in Tully's words: thinking about conquering the world all day long. But when we get married and have children (especially after 3 children), these free spirits, these vitality Everything is gone. The boring days are repeated every day, and the foreign languages ​​and knowledge that I have learned before are gradually forgotten. Every day is overdrawn by all kinds of trivial matters. This kind of life is a dead end. In the end, Marlo was lying on the hospital bed. ,Tully came in and said: Obviously,We can't meet again. At this time, Marlo should have understood that Tully was imagining himself. But Marlo still said: I don't want you to leave (she hopes to keep that free and energetic self). Tully said that she Just accompany Marlo through the hardest times, and then she will be on her own. Then Tully said something to make it clear: "Thank you for giving me life". Marlo said: Me too. It's not hard to see what Marlo wants Only by becoming an independent woman with a balance between career and family can it conform to the “mainstream” of American society. The mainstream society requires women to have inexhaustible energy, to have successful careers in groups of children, and to make time for fitness, makeup and social activities. Like Marlo said, super moms throw birthday parties and make minion cupcakes for little ones, and she's too exhausted to make them. Women like this abound around me, while reading While taking care of several children, PHD went out of the laboratory and went straight to the market every day. After coaxing the children to sleep at night, they continued to rush the papers. In order to prove that they were not inferior to men, we overdrawn our physical strength like Marlo, and we were exhausted in the end. See Many people say that Marlo is widowed parenting. I think her husband is actually a good husband and father. He also cooks with his wife and helps his children with homework. Anyway, my dad never helped me with homework, and more I haven't cooked. My mom has to go to work with our 3 kids, even with a babysitter, I see her always exhausted.While studying PHD, we took care of several children.

    Lifting the post-pregnancy life heavily and then gently lowering it, vaguely saw the shadows of "Juneo" and "In the Clouds". Raising a child is always harder than having a child, and the reversal at the end is a small surprise. The obese Queen Theron with an orange peel is too dedicated! ("After 30 years old, life is a garbage collection truck at 5 in the morning", I'm dead~~~~~~)

    3.5 I thought it was the kind of life sentiment film that was easy to make a fuss about, but in the end, I felt that although the layout was small, the expression should be said to be quite ingenious and unconventional, echoing the confusion and confusion in the previous article, " "turning" is therefore more persuasive; rather than having to prove to mothers who have given birth to two or three children whether the situation depicted in the film is exaggerated, it is better to say that everyone has a different level of "tolerance", and the In fact, it is more inclined to every life state that is almost crushed by the mundane and cumbersome and exhausted after taking on family responsibilities from youth. Who would have never hoped for a elf-like girl to solve all kinds of troubles and get a good night's sleep, Who has never imagined that they can swim with their tails swayed, and the drunken midnight in Brooklyn can't come back after all; the details of the male protagonist who is always playing games are really thorough.
