My thoughts were crushed by the heel

I carry your heart
I carry it in my heart is

like a poor love poem. People who have never watched this movie will not know how warm and touching she can be.

This is not a purely female film, relying on the fact that the man almost degenerates into the background; in front of the scene, the woman’s thoughts fall to the ground; but it is not a rivalry between rivals or a close friendship — neither , But Mo Ruo said both. Wandering between the polarities of family and friendship, trust and betrayal, forgiveness and redemption-sensational, but not abusive; the theme is big, and the movie is small. I think the beauty lies in it. It's really a small movie.

Sister Rose has a beautiful name, but it's a pity that she is not as good as her name, so she looks really sorry. In contrast, sister Maggie is like a natural star, in Rose's eyes, it is a never-ending "trouble maker".

The eldest sister is like a mother. After the death of her mother, her father married another. Rose left home and started living independently. Maggie couldn't stand her stepmother's dominance and moved out to live with her sister. She ate and lived for nothing in Rose's apartment, hit her car, and stole her. Shoes, the man who robbed her...until Rose couldn't bear it and went straight out-half of the story was told here, but the half is like a prologue.

Yiren double-sided. For example, all girls have a treasure chest to store their thoughts, and every woman has a back wardrobe that she does not want to show to others. That is the garden deep in her soul, where all the secrets she has hidden with her heart. Opening Rose's back wardrobe, we were surprised: this staid old girl was crazy in high heels, and a cabinet full of happy days, but never walked out of the house; and in Maggie's secret drawer, no one would have thought, There are only two things: her dyslexia, and her unobservable low self-esteem, loneliness.

Movies adapted from novels always have solid scripts, but they are often slightly inferior in form of expression, which is not enough to surprise people. The world constructed by female writers + female screenwriters is sensitive and subtle, with humor and exaggeration only to be tasted, too much will cover the main heart of the story. Two of my favorite scenes, one is Rose’s ex-boyfriend confession: I hate you, not because you hooked up with my sister, but because of you, I lost the only contact with her; and echoed it Yes, it was Maggie who stubbornly finished reading in front of the hospital bed. For the first time in her life, the professor asked her what the poem was talking about. She interprets it as "lost", what is missing, is it a lover? Maggie pondered for a long time, and said sadly: No, it's a friend.

As every individual who lacks courage, we are used to escape from narcissism; but forgot that the twins are blooming and stalked, and can snuggle in each other's existence.

Finally, I want to talk about Camero Diaz's sexy, sweet and sly. Just like a little girl will grow up overnight, time is for a woman, and the corners of the eyebrows and lips of beauties have shallow wrinkles. Toni Collette, who plays Rose, is an old drama. If you have a sharp eye, you will immediately recognize that she is the mother in The Sixth Sense. Although the drama is small and the weight is not reduced, this time, she did not use it as expected. Superb acting skills robbed all the scenes. This is a work produced by Camero Diaz. She proves that the proper use of qualities is not the actor's fault, but can be perfectly integrated with the character.

In fact, it’s really hard to explain why I like this movie, In Her Shoes (slang: put yourself in place), maybe just because: I’m a girl-so even if I don’t wear high heels, it’s okay.
