Feelings of that year

Kramer vs. Kramer is anything but bad.

Well, not all films that can be classified are commercial films that exist for the purpose of box office, not all non-mainstream films that cannot be read have absolute artistic appreciation value, not all films that are unsuccessful, Golden Lion, Golden Bear and Golden Palm have to be released. To be Oscar-like, not only big-budget movies are worthy of first-tier theaters, and not all emotional movies are to deceive tears, gain sympathy, and play with emotions. There are no surprises, at least there are old feelings. After the whole movie, I didn't see that the director or screenwriter was doing the most sensational work, so I couldn't conclude that this movie was a plot to flatter, a hypocrisy, or a quick success. It can only be said that the mind of the scolders is a bit distorted. What kind of mood did you use to watch this film, because the seventh art is high above the ground, and the reality, the truth, does not need to be put on the screen at all.

Firstly. I have no problem with the writers of Kramer vs. Kramer. The script design is good. The bright line is deep love, the dark line is women's liberation. It fits well with the social dynamics and family tests that emerged in the United States in the 1970s. Although the American adult education seems to be limited to the scope of family ethics, people are still very careful about their emotional grasp. Ted's unbridled lines are very authentic, with a New York accent and a melodious tone; and Joanna, in fact, marks the young mother's beginning to take a feminist road with her own characteristics; it reflects social care and is easy to resonate with. This is the confusion of America, as a country, as a whole, a realist pragmatism. Now it seems that it even has a taste of classical beauty. It's just that the happy ending is a bit... The screenwriter is a little confused about the situation, the dialogue is too full, the space is not enough, the two couples made a half-tone, and it is as bad as an aunt's "nineteen years later" at the end of HP- - "Great reunion" always feels a little flattering. But things like this are often not the end of the story. At least the ending won't affect most of your viewing.

Second. The director chose such a theme, it is sensitive and it should be. It's not that the ideas are naive, or that the material is vulgar, or that the subject matter is not deep enough. To put it simply, it is one of the seven-year itch, that is, marriage... There are many contradictions that cannot be reconciled. A marriage out of love is not necessarily the best marriage. Once Ted and Joanna's love fades, both parties will find that each other is not suitable for marriage. Joanna's runaway is still selfish, but because the entire civilization is the civilization of the strong, not the civilization of the weak, such a runaway will finally have the courage to be respected and commendable in the future.

again. The film is very mild and does not see any special technical and tactical. Many scenes are more orthodox and honest. We are all ordinary people, looking for some lost beauty is simple enough. There is no need to use too much rationality, intelligence, and logic to look at it in detail. Otherwise, professional film critics may be oversaturated. No matter what the director's original intention is, the most real and warm side of that single-parent family is directly directed at people's hearts. I have to admit that there were a few scenes where the old lady cried, and she was really moved.

then. I like it.

    Ted Kramer: Come here. We didn't have diet soda. We had egg creams - which is a little bit of chocolate syrup and a little bit of seltzer water and a little bit of milk and you went Shoooosh! all swooshed up when you drank it and it was de-licious. We didn't have the Mets, but, we had the Brooklyn Dodgers. We had the Polo Grounds. We had Ebbits Field. Ah, boy, those were the days. And we didn't have the Volkswagens; but, we had all those different kind of cars with the funny names on 'em. We didn't have any Burger Kings or McDonalds. We had automats where you went inside and you put a quarter in and you get, you know, a piece of pie or a sandwich that you see through a window. We didn't have any graffiti; but, we had this guy, Kilroy, and he went down the street...
