"The Queen of Offline": The Selfish Limit of Old Leftover Women

Devon 2022-09-07 21:14:53

An elderly leftover woman who is running for four has been working as a ghostwriter of books for teenagers in the metropolis. Despite her lack of fame, her life can be considered a happy life. A chance encounter with a childhood sweetheart from the school days, the old love rekindles, and immediately decides to return to the hometown that has been separated for many years to regain the old love. However, in the vicissitudes of life, the world has changed, and the family has already started a family and has become a five-good family leader who adopts a wife and loves a son. The unmoved older woman insists on her own way, thinking that she can capture people's souls with her charisma. Unexpectedly, at a party named for the child, when she came to prepare for a big show with her elaborate dresses, she was strongly stimulated by the words and actions of the ordinary group that she had always looked down on, and she couldn't help herself, in front of everyone. out of control. The high-spirited plan to win love came to an abrupt end and left in embarrassment.

The film is directed by Jason Reitman, the director of "Juno". Charlize Theron, the glamorous actress, subverts the interpretation. It focuses on the relationship between family ethics and family ethics. It can be regarded as a high protein of plain knowledge. To say it's a comedy would be a stretch. In fact, there is not much humor, but a lot of depth. If you're not a really sophisticated adult, you probably don't even know what the director is trying to tell and express, and it's just an R-rated comedy to watch the slightly vulgar and avant-garde things about hot girls.

In fact, the film is about selfishness. The extent to which a 37-year-old single woman's selfish state will reach is fully interpreted in the film. First of all, knowing that the other party is married and having children, he has to forcibly seduce Gan to be an adulteress; secondly, he came to his hometown where he had been separated for many years, but he did not know that he would return to his own home to pay homage to his parents, and he was forced to go home for an embarrassing meal by his mother. ; Once again, I went to the party with no love, but made a rude remark to the heroine and made a mess of it; finally, after taking the initiative to embrace the disgusting man, the director still felt that it was not enough, perhaps because he was afraid that everyone would not watch it. I understand, I added a "sincere dialogue" to make the flattering girl praise and tout the older girl to the extreme, thinking that she would be able to climb the high branch and broaden her horizons, but the older girl poured a basin of cold water into her heart. This is the true meaning of the entire film, allowing the world to witness an unparalleled selfish performance of selfish objects. It is selfish to think that everyone and things are despised, but in fact, everyone treats them the same way. It's just that honest and honest people don't act as domineering and domineering as they are selfish.
