This will undoubtedly be Glenn Close's performance appreciation film. If there is no accident, it should also be her Oscar-winning film. The film, both from a narrative point of view and photography art, highlights the unbearable character for her husband. great wife. There is no need to say much about the plot of this film. The brief introduction is a writer who is about to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature. The actual work was written by his wife. The wife guards this secret with her whole life, but she cannot bear it because The husband finally broke out in the face of deception from the whole world when he accepted the award. Joanne, the heroine played by Glenn Close in the film, is a female writer with extremely high self-cultivation and outstanding literary quality, but because of the discrimination against women in the literary world, she has to choose to remain anonymous and hide behind her husband to complete herself. dream.

The heroine in the film is of high quality, good at taking care of everything in her husband's life, and carefully observes her husband's every move, and even tolerates her husband's endless extramarital affairs. In the film, it can be said without hesitation that every scene where Glenn appeared is a moment after the movie. The director deliberately used a lot of close-up shots, a small amount of medium shots, and timely close-ups to let the audience magnify Glenn’s outstanding acting skills, especially It was a few highlights, Glenn's control of facial muscles, every expression was very skillful. After all, they are also the older generation of actors who have mentioned seven Oscars. Of course, with the exception of Olivia Colman, if this year's Venice actress loses the Oscar, I can only say that the difference is in playing time!

From my analysis above, you can also see that apart from Glenn Close's outstanding acting skills, this film has almost no special highlights. The plot is biased towards fiction and literature, and the chances of it being able to stand up in reality are very small. On the camera, because of the great effort to reflect every emotional change of the heroine, it is not too prominent. In terms of art perception, it is relatively comfortable. After all, the scenery of the Nordic town is beautiful no matter how you take it. In the truth of life, the film actually has the idea of ​​​​promoting feminism, but because of the name of "good wife", it seems to have insufficient stamina, but in general, it looks good.

After watching this film, I also suddenly thought of the discussion on Minglan's concept of marriage in "Do you know if it should be green, fat, red and thin". In fact, there is something in common between the two. Their husbands love them deeply. Their husbands are very naive. They use their wisdom and forbearance to maintain their husband's reputation, and their fate cannot really be returned to their own hands in the end. I recommend this film to girls, not because I want them to follow suit, but I want them to choose which way of life is comfortable for themselves and their loved ones.

  • Joan Castleman: I can't do it anymore, Joe. I can't do it. I can't take it. I can't take the humiliation of holding your coat and arranging your pills and picking the crumbs out of your beard and being shoved aside with all the other wives to talk about some goddamn shopping trip while you, while you say to all the, the gathering sycophants that your wife doesn't write! Your wife, who just won the Nobel Prize!

    Joe Castleman: So, if I'm such an insensitive and talentless fucking piece of shit, why the fuck did you marry me?
