This is marriage

First of all I want to say that the cinemas in the Indian and Pakistani area near the school are so small that people can lie down in their seats and take out their student cards and give an outrageous discount.
Secondly, I want to say that watching a movie doesn’t require any English level. Anyway, I understand about 60% of the lines. affect the understanding of the plot.
I've seen this poster hanging on the subway for half a month, and I'm still wondering if it's not a good idea to take advantage of my broken love. After all, I need to move on quickly and don't want to be stuck in useless emotions for too long.
But I was stunned. I noticed that the director was David Fincher, so I watched it with confidence.

I don't know why I really don't like "The Social Network", and "Zodiac" is inexplicably the only movie I have watched halfway through and never watched again. But with my paranoid and fervent love for Fight Club and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, I still believe in the quality assurance of David Fincher.
As an extreme uselessist of the marriage system, I was secretly excited when I realized that this was a movie about marriage relationship at the beginning. This excitement was the excitement of seeing my constellation black again.
I have to say that the most wonderful thing is actually the echo of the close-up at the beginning and the following text, so wonderful that I feel that this echo should be included in all film study textbooks. The feeling of powerlessness that the white cloud cang dog is changing, makes people want to high-five and congratulate all the people in this world who have doubts about the marriage system.
In fact, Gone Girl is a story of dog bites dog. No one is innocent. They hurt each other with their despicable humanity in the name of marriage.
Another cool thing about David Fincher is his attention to detail. When Amy saw her husband being criticized by public opinion on a TV show, she jumped up like a happy little girl, which made people feel evil and sick. And later, when she pretended to be pitiful and appeared in front of people, every time she held hands and hugs with her husband pretending to be affectionate was a huge irony again and again. Not to mention the description and characterization of Amazing Amy's bizarre and indifferent character, the well-organized post-it notes on the calendar, and the color changes of the pens in the diary. I always believe that it is not without reason that the real young women of literature and art can exterminate all human beings. They Emotionally fragile and loves to go to extremes, I would like to believe that one of the writers or directors must have encountered a female Wenqing and was severely tortured.
Of course, it is undeniable that the characters are set to extremes. Soft fans tend to be violent, cheating men, and cold-blooded women who engage in artistic pretentiousness. The supporting role is still a thousand-year-old perverted loser. Any such extreme character can be a movie of its own. Not to mention the explosive effect of three lunatics thrown into one story.
As for the ignorance of public opinion, the ulterior motives of the media’s tendentious reports, and the judiciary’s eagerness to close the case and deliberately ignoring doubts, all of these have become outstanding chapters in this exquisite article that criticizes and ridicules society.

As someone who has always been skeptical about the existence of the institution of marriage, this movie seems to find more arguments than "Revolutionary Road". Not to mention that when the male protagonist asked "Why do we want to destroy each other and hurt each other", Amy answered "This is marriage" indifferently and expressionlessly. When the role of women in marriage finally breaks out of the fixed image of the little white rabbit and the victim, the distorted human nature they burst out is also more powerful and terrifying because of the excessive presence of sensibility. Everyone has a hideous face, and every word has ulterior motives.

I love this ending so much. Originally, I had been thinking about how this story would end, always fantasizing that either of them would kill the other, but what I didn't expect was a peaceful and happy ending. David Fincher threw a dark humorous joke to the world, and the seemingly happy ending could almost classify this film as a "horror movie".
But no matter what, I still insidiously want to believe that this is the truth of marriage.
