born a woman

It's a 1999 movie, incredible.

All the female characters in the film are full of personality, and the scale of the subject matter is also very large, but they are handled in a compact and harmonious manner. There are trans women on drugs, there are prostitutes who stand on the street with confidence, and there are soulful lesbian actors. They all have one thing in common, they all dare to be their own women. The group photo is always missing half, but the lines can be memorized clearly. Nuns are not religiously imprisoned to conceive transgender children. The chest is filled with silicone but the words are the most sincere. In the film, the scene of four women sitting at the hostess' house talking and laughing naturally presents a particularly harmonious female power to the audience.

The plot paved the way for a deeper meaning. The relationship between the nun and the heroine changed from helper and beneficiary to beneficiary and helper. The deeper connection between them is that they have two children with the same woman. , they all show the strong side of women as mothers without exception. A Yue's highlight moment is in the theater, the spotlight shines on her, she can still speak her past experience calmly, she is a free and easy woman.

The only one who appears to be weak is the heroine alone. The heroine's expression is not well-prepared many times. She was originally a character with a very rich level, but her performance is very flat.

    It is not only the reality on the timeline, but also a stage play with a series of events compressed, and there is also the possibility of a play in a play. The suspiciousness of the text always exists, and it has become a unique pleasure. They all arise from men (the death of the son, the illness of the father, the escape of the boyfriend), but they are only related to women. Their identities change among daughters, lovers/wifes, and mothers, and they are actually "sisters." The red design looks like a flower in full bloom.

    Vigorous women, suffering and dignity flow through them like a red river, whether it is a daughter, a mother, or a mother or a daughter. Gender is a kind of performance, and this postmodern consciousness is used lightly in a story like this about fertility and inheritance, guilt and forgiveness, and when I watch it, I constantly reflect: Is this a 1999 movie? Ashamed of my originality. The play is so charming. The father's character is missing throughout the film, either abandoned or forgotten, until he becomes a feminine word to return.
