The movie starts with a rape scene, well, our heroine Michelle is raped in the beginning. And her attitude towards rape is astounding. Michelle, who was raped, calmly packed herself, changed all the door locks in the house, and dressed up to have dinner with relatives and friends. During the meal, she announced to her friends "I was raped" in a flat tone, When her friends were stunned for a moment, she casually flipped through the menu and started ordering, turning a blind eye to the uproar caused by her news. This is Michelle's self-destruction of being raped, and it is also a unique mockery of her rapist.
Michelle's way of dealing with rape was unheard of. The mainstream values in society generally believe that after a woman is raped, she should cover her head and cry, hide from others, and at least seek help from the police, relatives, and psychiatrists to bring the perpetrators to justice and treat their physical and mental trauma. This is in line with the victim. settings. And Michelle is probably the most powerful rape victim. She doesn't even bother to call the police. She talks about a rape case at the dinner table as a trivial matter such as "the neighbor's bitch gives birth to a puppy". Huo Da, why doesn't this heroine follow the rules of society at all? If Michelle wants to abide by social rules, she can't bear the reputation of satirizing patriarchy and raping life. She is the pioneer of the times who dares to challenge social rules and trample traditional bad habits.
Of course, ordinary people like us would definitely call the police in case of a rape case. Michelle didn't call the police because of her dark background. When she was a child, her father made a social murder case, killing 28 people in a row, so she grew up with the infamy of "the daughter of a murderer". Such life experience may explain why her heart is so strong .
Michelle has lived in the shadow of her father for most of her life, always fearing and fleeing from her father. During the years when her father was in prison, she did not visit her father once, and the only time she decided to see her father, but saw his father's body in prison, Michelle took a deep breath and approached the face of her dead father, Gently said, "Because I came, you will die." This sentence is equivalent to declaring that she finally broke free from her father's shadow and escaped her father's control, and no one can affect her life since then.
A rapist can't affect her, a murderous father can't affect her, and even his own son can't affect her. As a mother, Michelle does not play cards according to the routine. She is not a good mother in the traditional sense. She does not objectify herself because of maternal love. As her son's ATM machine, she naturally tries her best to provide her son's house and car with three meals a day, but other than that, she has no motherhood. and lose reason.
We know that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a worldwide problem, and Michelle also encountered this problem. The son's wife is an aggressive woman, and she goes mad at her son in front of everyone when she disagrees. What's even more outrageous is that the two white people gave birth to a black-skinned baby. That's right, the son is happy to be a father. The self-deceiving son was unwilling to face the reality, but Michelle revealed the truth to her son in front of everyone. She forced her son to face "This child is not your son!" Yes, Michelle still maintained a detached attitude in front of her son. Sober and rational, she knows the cruelty of life, so she must let her son accept the cruelty of life as soon as possible.
All the cruelties of life we can imagine happened to Michelle. Her life was tragic, her parents were not responsible, her son was useless, her marriage was broken, she was raped... Any of these things can be written separately. Tear-jerking lyric can even create a tragic protagonist. And Michelle, who has gathered all the tragic stories, has turned these things into an exercise of self-resilience with her indomitable and humble character. She sees the world as her own playground. Even if she was born with a tragic fate, she wants to have as much fun as possible, even with a selfishness of "I'm not happy with you, don't want to be happy". This kind of woman is not likable and will never please others, but the onlookers will be attracted by her. She has a kind of magic in her, which makes people curious and sadistic to watch.
No one in the world can resist pressure better than Michelle, and no one can learn from her character of "turning everything on the ground", and no one can be more free and willful than her. This is the reason why we watch her. She has shown the world her tenacious vitality and female tension. No one is better at fighting against the secular world, against life, and against patriarchy. The audience can even sum up a "Code of Conduct for Independent Women" or "Ten Commandments Against Patriarchy" from Michelle. Most of these women are labeled as "strong women, Li Mochou, and Shi Tai" in daily life, because few men can control them, but what does it matter? They don't care about men's opinions, Wei Wei With a smile, he raised his middle finger to the world gracefully.
Michelle's life cannot be replicated, and her experience is not comparable, so "Her" is not an inspirational film. We can still see hope in Michelle. She tells women that there are infinite possibilities in your life. Being cheated is not the end of life. If you are raped, you can go back and rape. If you get divorced, you will come again in spring. , it's not a big deal if the son is not filial, the most important thing is that the heart must be strong enough to be a bastard, until you can kill all the bastards.
