Bringing the theme back to "The Women", this is a new era film developed based on the classic black and white film "The Woman" in 1939. The difference is that "The Women" revolves around everything about women.
In less than 30 minutes of the opening, I clearly felt that the protagonist was Mary played by Meg Ryan. She has everything a woman wants, a luxurious suburban villa, a successful husband, and a well-behaved daughter. She doesn't need to worry about life. , but she encountered the marital problem that most people will encounter, her husband is having an affair. At first, Sylvia, a good friend who was single-minded and focused on career and work, went to listen to it. Later, a good friend in common, Alex, a lesbian who spoke and acted sharply, and her mother-in-law had personalities but liked art, and vowed that the fourth child would spell a boy. After Edie knew about it one after another, when she was about to tell Mary, she didn't know that she already knew about it.
Betrayed by her friend, she turned to her mother for help, but unexpectedly learned that her mother had experienced the same experience as herself. Shopping on the street, I can't think of the person who happened to meet her husband in an lingerie store. The object of an affair is wearing hot underwear. The ordinary Mary maintains her self-cultivation and shouts to the other side. the missing part.
Facing the betrayal of her friend, she avoided meeting and came to the experience camp. A stranger who had never met before said, "Don't give a shit about anybody. Be selfish." It made her wake up like a big dream, It's time to stop the life I've been living for my family, friends, and parents for the past few years.
A simple What do I want? Restart your second life. Picking up the abandoned camera to take pictures, embracing the expertise of designing clothing again, reconciling with friends, new flowers blooming in the clothing business, the husband who is in the middle of separation sent a congratulatory card that said "I want to get to know you again, do I still have a chance? ', making Nianyou's daughter proud. The storyline is as clichéd as the Apocalypse Now that we read in our hearts, "When you really want something, the whole universe joins up to help you get it done."
If you are careful enough, it is not difficult to find that there are no male shots in the whole movie, except for the baby boy born by Edie at the end of the film. I arbitrarily classify this film as feminist, even though her characters are similar to "Cashmere Mafia" or "Lipstick Jungle", not to mention "Sex", which is also famous for four different styles of women. and the City", of course, this film is to maximize Mary's personality, Sylvia's appearance is to prove that women need friendship, Alex makes up for the lack of male presence in the whole film, is mother-in-law's Edie with us? Most married women who go into marriage in life are similar.
Maybe it's time for us to pick up those over-exaggerated urban romances, and learn about future life textbooks, such as the well-packaged questions in "The Women", and think about what do I as women. want?
