Maybe it's too old

In the replies about the plight of women in marriage on the Top Ten Shuimu, there will always be someone mentioning this movie, so I looked for it, but it was not as good as I imagined. Maybe it was good for the year?

What I am angry about is probably that the whole film shows the awakening of women from a male perspective. Mr. Kramer did well after his wife left, probably better than most men in real life. But if Mrs. Kramer hadn't left, those touching scenes would never have happened. The film one-sidedly exaggerates the sacrifice of men, and it is not easy for men, but Mrs. Kramer's five-year-long dedication, there is only a small scene in the first film, the comparison between the two is inevitably reminiscent of "The sound of prostitutes is good in the evening, and the fireworks of a lifetime are no problem. ; A virgin woman loses her head, and the pure suffering of a lifetime is not a thing” and so on. Even if he runs away, he seems to be very guilty. He only dares to take away the two thousand dollars before marriage, so as not to anger public opinion. Countless Mrs. Kramers who have not run away are still suffocating in the trivial details at home. Except for being regarded by their husbands as resentful women and forming the image of "women are troubles" in the whole society, no one pays attention and no one cares.
