In this scene, the performance of everyone in the family is very prominent. The documentary lens that moves back and forth here fully finds a place to be useful.
Rachel has naturally become the center of everyone's favorite, and the groom has a little bit of his face. Convinced, Emma also fully expressed her joy as a sister. To a certain extent, as an "outsider", her stepmother is obviously more willing to hear happiness rather than worry, and the father who is most concerned about Kym is Rachel. While happy, he didn't forget to come back and hug Kym, but he also hopes to change the subject and make everyone happy. The best man, Kieran, who had just had a physical relationship with
Kym, eats watermelon like nothing else but Kym himself. In the midst of yelling, he mumbled feebly, "This is not fair...", and hoped disappointingly. Continue her discussion.
This scene also strongly highlights the theme of the movie, that is, the incompatibility between different lives.
It’s hard to say that Rachel is an annoying person. On the contrary, Rachel is a very popular person in real life. She has a lot of various friends. She treats her sister Kym, unlike Emma. So mean. But it was precisely that, and the damage she caused to Kym was even deeper.
Rachel had an open-minded attitude towards Kym from beginning to end. At the beginning of the film, the two met again for the first time. There is still a lot of intimacy between the sisters. Kym insists on wearing gray clothes, Rachel also accommodates, even let Emma give up the position of bridesmaid. After Kym had an accident while driving, Rachel showed great concern and even helped Kym take a bath. By secular standards, how could she do better?
In the movie, Rachel is set with 4 attributes:
1. She is about to marry her Ruyi Langjun
2. She is a very popular person
3. She is Kym's sister
4. She is about to get PhD in Psychology
These settings are not accidental. The first point shows that Rachel is not in a bad mood. The second point shows that in real life, Rachel is not a lonely and poorly communicated person. The third point shows that there is a real relationship between her and Kym. The real family affection, the fourth point shows that she even has enough theoretical knowledge to understand the obscure psychological problems.
All this shows that it is not that Rachel does not want to accept Kym, but that Kym is such a person that even the life of a person like Rachel cannot accommodate her.
After the argument, Rachel showed indifference and rejection to Kym, and her prejudice was aroused in the hair salon incident. After Kym's accident, on the surface, Rachel seemed to show enough sisterhood.
How to accurately describe Rachel's performance?
People like Rachel are not uncommon in life. They are always able to properly handle various relationships in life. Kym is also a problem that must be handled well for her. In other words, Rachel's final attitude towards Kym was basically a technical treatment. She knows what to do to meet the standards of the secular society. It is not difficult to imagine that this kind of technical treatment has also won Rachel many friends, or rather, many social relationships. But Rachel's life couldn't accommodate people like Kym, even if it was her biological sister.
The most chilling thing is that after Kym finally left, Rachel was so relaxed that he couldn't help but jump. Kym's life is a rock that is difficult to dissolve. She is someone who will spoil her happy life at any time, even though Rachel himself is such a good person.
And Kym had no choice but to leave.
PS: The bad part of this movie is that the background of the character Kym is too narrow. Kym is a man with a history of drug abuse and negligent death of his brother. In real life, people with such a different experience may not necessarily encounter Kym's situation. Perhaps for commercial films, this is necessary, after all, for most people, this film is too exciting.
