Women, brisk jumping rhythm, smart high heels, neat steps in groups, gossip flying all over the sky, quarrels not to be outdone, and last but most importantly, shopping! What jumped into view was another typical Fifth Avenue department store, full of shiny counters and women with D&G bags in their hands. Rows of bags, perfume, elevator corner, another woman's paradise, beauty salon. Sylvia was going to get her nails done just before lunch, as she often did, but this time the girl who received her would spoil the pleasure she would have had from working alone on a Saturday morning. Mary, the organizer of the charity luncheon and the quintessential New York celebrity, worked for her father's clothing empire; her husband was a prominent figure; and she had a precocious teenage daughter who was always dissatisfied with her weight. Sylvia walks out of Saks restless when she learns that her best friend Mary's husband is having an affair with some perfume slut in the mall. Now her choice is whether to tell her friends or not.
This reminds me of something that every friend goes through. If you knew something that would break your friend, would you tell her? First of all, you know she would prefer you to tell her the news rather than someone else, but if you do tell her, can you deal with what's going to happen next? Especially when you see her so ignorant and happily looking forward to the next vacation with her husband, would you really have the heart to do this? As someone who understands, you probably know that the woman he's seeing may be nothing to him, so your friend can act like nothing and he'll eventually come back to this woman he's loved for 13 years, a woman who wants to give birth to his second child at this moment. Of course, the best way to treat this woman as if she doesn't know anything is that she really doesn't know anything. But if she knew now that she could have done something to save her, to the point where her husband really fell in love with the woman outside, to the point where he was going to divorce her, and it was too late, would she complain that you didn't come sooner? Tell her this you already know.
When a woman can't make a decision, she usually reaches out to her friends, and Sylvia certainly can't consult Mary, so she tells another woman, another of her four best friends, Edie. She is an artist's wife. She is a housewife. She just gave up pottery and started to learn oil painting. Her house is full of children; girls, four. They are named after the months. This is fascinating; may, April, January, and June. But she is pregnant again, and she will not give up until she has a son. She was a little timid, nervous, and excited, and she was a typical woman. The result of the discussion between the two women was not to tell Mary, in order not to hurt her. But she knew it anyway, from the gossiping manicure woman...
Mary's life stinks; she's been copied by her own dad; her husband is having an affair; then her edgy mother shares her experience with her; that's why we need moms. Women of the older generation have experienced more. It is very coincidental that they may have experienced the same experience as you, but it is not a last resort. They will not reveal to you that your father is also the same as the bastard in your mouth. Some slut who sells clothes. The mother calmly reminded her not to act rashly, but I don't know if this is still a good idea in modern society.
The sisters aren't so peaceful, and the last to hear the news is Alex, a lesbian writer who hangs out at nightclubs in search of passion. Four! It seems to be the magic number of a female society. Various movies look at the world through the eyes of four women, as if women can be divided into four categories at various levels. Sex and the City, the summer of jeans and women, if you reluctantly count Barcelona... Movies about women have made their way to the screen time and time again, and they are all about women with successful careers and power in Manhattan. After watching so much, I think I should have reached the point of aesthetic fatigue. What is the reason for me to be attracted to it again and again? As a woman, I guess that feeling is called empathy, putting yourself in your shoes.
The three sisters found the so-called Perfume Girl, and she is charming, but I admit to having a personal bias. I don't like wild women like Eva Mendes, and her role makes her even more annoying. With Sylvia's intelligent provocation, Edie's hysterical roar, and Alex's contemptuous eyes, they got the effect they wanted. But unfortunately, this Christie did not buy their account at all. Even when she met Mary in a lingerie store, she was still not to be outdone, and her words were domineering. In this regard, I admire this woman very much. She can bravely face such a strong enemy; she is fearless; she even feels extremely good about herself. She seems to believe that she will win.
Mary and her husband are divorced, and the conversation between the housekeeper and the nanny is equally witty and wise. One of the man's compromises is that one of the woman's words is too much. There is one sentence that impressed me the most. The nanny said: "I heard Mary tell the husband that the woman was looking for him because of his money." Butler: She must not say that; you must not make a husband believe that his wife is the only person on the planet foolish enough to fall in love with him.All men want to be needed, and they want to be loved. That's all.
Sylvia made a serious mistake as a friend. In order to keep her career, she betrayed her friend. It was too much to say that betrayal. But anyway, she did it wrong. Mary was very angry. She is discovered cheating on her husband.The order in which she mentioned it was always: my husband left me, and worse, my best friend betrayed me. The whole thing evolved into a serious crisis of trust between the closest husband and the best friend. Men talk about brotherhood, and their relationship is dead. But like I've always believed, women are more intimate, they're really talkative, they're on call, volunteering, well, even risking their lives, they really can. They will really take each other's affairs as their own, they will feel each other's pain, and they will cheer for their happiness. This kind of relationship can't be ended by playing a small game of betrayal. Go see his ghost, for friends, we don't care. Are you still hating your brother's betrayal all your life? Learning from women, I now trust sisters more than lovers.
There is always a bright light when there is no way out, and so is Mary. This name is, sorry, I can't remember her name, a female agent. She has been married five times. Like the woman in the Jane Austen book club, she was married five times, like Elizabeth Taylor, eight times, and their explanations were the same, and their happiness was obvious; love more, love more. This woman told Mary to be selfish, and when it happens, think about what she said about me. It's easier. And you have to remind yourself from time to time, "What do I want?" What exactly do I need?
The independence of a woman is inspiring, and I love episodes where a woman struggles from a mess to start a better life from scratch, where everything is getting better and better than before. The film still has to reflect this theme at the end; independent women are the most beautiful and self-reliant because, in the end, Mary's husband came back when she had a successful career. The ingenious part of the woman's film is that, in order to highlight the female theme, there is no man in the whole film. Whether it's Mary's husband, father, or Sylvia's boss, boyfriend, or Edie's husband, they only exist in phone calls, notes, and conversations with women. In this world, men don't even count supporting roles.
Sylvia is obsessed with her career. I don't know why, even now, many people are still noncommittal about strong women. A woman with a hard-line style is always frightening and unapproachable. Have you ever thought that she is just a woman? Like Andy in The Devil Wears Prada said, if everything Miranda is doing is done by a man, you have no problem at all. Women's career success and the desire to pursue success are too strong, but they are disgusting. Why are men and women not equal? Mary is a happy married woman. Her husband has money and status, and her daughter is very gratifying. But are they okay? "Happiness is in the eyes of others." How many times do I have to repeat this sentence? Marriage and love are like people drinking water, knowing whether they are warm or cold.
Alex is a social freak, but she always has a place for her, and she lives happily in her own world, defying worldly prejudice. She was a decent woman, married and had children, but she was the one who cheated, and her husband forgave her because they still loved each other. Women are an eternal topic; endless gossip, endless tears, laughter that makes you cramp, and always warm support behind your back.
