end of 2011, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television just issued the "Entertainment Restriction Order". Although the impact on the TV media and entertainment industry is foreseeable, it does not prevent them from continuing to flourish at the moment. The enthusiasm of the audience for entertainment dating programs is obviously a trend that cannot be ignored. Young people of all kinds of literature and art and non-literary art in the new era, especially young women, have to endure the most ancient traditions in the event of marriage. worldly pressure. The young people of the right age who are eager to sell themselves have turned themselves and the other party into commodities. All kinds of innate genes and acquired experiences can be quantified into various chips, and they are publicly placed on the table to weigh transactions.
In 2009, "Growing Up Education", which won the audience's choice award and photography award at the Sundance Film Festival and was nominated for multiple awards, including the Golden Globe and Oscar, is still very meaningful today. The film is adapted from the memoir of British "Times" reporter Lynn Barber. It tells how Jenny, a 16-year-old excellent middle school student in the 1960s, went from meeting a good mature man and dreaming of a perfect marriage life to the end. A story that leads to broken dreams.
Like most girls who fantasize about a good marriage life, the protagonist of the story also hopes that he can have a person who is worthy of him. Jenny is not the ordinary silly girl in the old-fashioned British school for girls - she has real advantages over most of her classmates who are simply not mature: she is beautiful, smart, and can play the cello. More importantly, have a good aesthetic taste that goes far beyond their peers and can relate to adults on a spiritual level. Evidently, Jenny is very aware of her strengths and has a knack for communicating with people she considers high society. When she attends concerts, swims in the exotic places of her dreams, speaks French in high-end venues, smokes and tastes wine in a childish way, and competes for famous paintings at top auction houses - she must be proud of these glorious experiences she has had. endlessly. Showing off in a casual way in front of the classmates is like a bird admiring its beautiful and smooth feathers in the mirror, but never imagined that it would fall into a trap. The price is painful, "there are no shortcuts in life".
Compared with the love blueprint planned by the little girl who hates marrying so much, the 2008 BBC single episode "The Regrets of Jane Austen" is more "miserable", but more real. Marriage matters regardless of age. According to modern people's ideas, the outstanding novelist Miss Jane Austen has been a "leftover girl" in England as early as the end of the 18th century. Discrimination is different. Britain has historically been a country rich in "leftover women". Perhaps Queen Elizabeth set a good example, or perhaps the women of the island country are self-righteous and well-educated; Even so, at some stage in her life, Miss Austin had to face the pain of loneliness and rejection from others. No matter how talented women are, they cannot avoid the troubles caused by social shackles.
But she hardened her heart and did not marry. Because of the arrogance brought by talent. It's not that you can't, it's that you don't want to.
Compared with being left alone, what Miss Austin fears more is the boring and long marriage life. If she really wants to choose one of the two, she is willing to face the pressure around her and stubbornly follow her own path, just to maintain her bottom line and principles.
By the standards of today's girls, Miss Austin's approach has tended to tragic. In a commodity society where everything can be clearly marked, marriage and love, which should be pure emotions, have long been mixed with a lot of secular elements - in fact, this is of course a wishful misunderstanding in the eyes of ordinary people. Marriage, a form of contract, is originally a contractual sale that both parties must properly balance, and the equivalence of money and flesh; it’s just that this contract is also accompanied by some or no emotion, the duration is a long life, and the cost Expensive and ultimately worth investing more than a pure commercial contract.
The term "leftover women" is indeed vicious enough, full of the society's brutal setting and interference with women's social attributes, forming a disguised discrimination to some extent. In such an environment, it is natural for hatred and negative emotions to erupt, which is why everyone is always watching the dating show: he/she secretly sets himself/herself as the competitor on the stage, weighing himself/herself, The position of each other and the group in the overall social relationship. This slightly deformed method has influenced the mainstream values and measurement standards. Most people must conform to this rule, and special cases and heresies must be resolutely cracked down.
Miss Austin finally ended alone. She died as early as in her 40s, which to some extent gave the secular world an excuse to finally attack her kind of aliens - "A life that goes against common sense really doesn't end well", but Who can ignore another dazzling brilliance that she walks on a path different from ordinary people's choices? Like the little girl Jenny, most people pursue the ideal and perfect marriage life in their stumbling growth; but there are always some Miss Austins who stubbornly maintain principles that others cannot understand and are independent. There are various rules in various eras, there is no right or wrong, but in the face of the raging worldly pressure, how many people can have the courage to stand up and clearly express their independent attitude of choice and not go with the flow? Too few people dare to admit that happiness has nothing to do with other people's approval, but only about their own magnanimous choices.
