"Roma"

By the way, there is no order.

Cleo's boyfriend Fermin played naked in front of her and said: "My mother died since I was a child. I lived with a relative of mine. The relative's children beat me every day. I gave up on myself and went astray until I met Martial arts." At the movie theater, Cleo told Fermin that she was pregnant, Fermin declined to go to the bathroom and disappeared. Some time later Corio found Fermin, who threatened Corio with force and insulted her in front of her. In the end, when Corio was shopping for a crib, there was a riot in the street. A group of people took the opportunity to kill a young man. They pointed guns at the people in the store. Corio found out that the person pointing at her was Fermin. I cried seeing this scene, is Fermin going astray? No, he's a total asshole.

The hostess returned home one day and grabbed Krio's arms with both hands and said: We are both alone, and women are always alone. "The hostess said several times at the end of the film, "Life is an adventure". Yes, no matter what life does to us, we still have to embrace life. But the film itself does not show bitterness and hatred, but a kind of "Plain." At last they hugged on the beach, and Cleo cried, "Actually, I really, really don't want this baby. "However, when the child was born and died, Cleo still hugged the child and cried bitterly. The hostess hugged Cleo and her child and said, "We have always loved you."

This is a female elegy, expressed by Alfonso Cuaron in the most personal way, and there are many contrasts in it. For example: when the hostess watched the host drive away, a symphony orchestra happened to appear, and finally the hostess took the child and Cleo home, and the same symphony orchestra appeared in the same place. There are many similar contrasts. Photography is also a highlight.

As long as a director speaks out what he thinks deep in his heart, the film will definitely not be bad. Alfonso Cuaron officially stepped into the ranks of masters with this film.
