In the previous tweet about the 14-year-old loli, who castrated a man , I mentioned that I like the actress Ellen Page , and also mentioned another of her works, which is This movie is recommended to you today.

"Juno"

The name is simple and rude, because the protagonist of the story, the name of the 16-year-old high school girl (probably 16), is called Juno.

Juno, a high school student , is a cute elf who is going through the transition from adolescence to adulthood. After sharing the forbidden fruit with Brick , a handsome track and field team member , the beaded tire turns dark, and the troubles that follow can be imagined .

It's obviously too early to talk about marriage with Brick. Brick himself is a high school student with no hair. Facing the news of Juno's pregnancy, he was stunned. I went to have an abortion, and was frightened by the anti-abortion propaganda at the door and the bad environment inside. Juno discussed with his friends and decided to give birth to the child, and then hand it over to a kind-hearted couple to raise.

However, the parents eventually learned of Juno's secret, but their reaction was not as bad as Juno expected - the family united because of the child in the womb, and shared strategies for her to share the joys and sorrows of pregnancy.

They found a loving couple who seemed best suited to adopt a child, and Juno had a lot going on with them, especially with the husband of the couple.

Although Juno does not plan to leave the child, she sincerely hopes that the child will be happy, so she hopes that she can leave the child to the most loving and harmonious family. But in the end, the husband of the couple confessed that he did not expect children that much, and even started to get tired of his own marriage. Juno fled the couple's home, crying in the car.

After this incident, the girl Juno finally realized that the emotions between people are complicated. After discussing her views on marriage and love with her father, she realized that she had always been in love with Brick, but they were both too young and too young to understand what love was. Juno goes to Brick, happy that Brick, though perhaps immature, still loves her.

In the end, Juno gave birth to the child and gave it to the wife of the couple (they were divorced or separated), watching her ecstatic, knowing that her child would have a mother who loved him. Juno himself went back to school and started a real relationship with Brick.

I have to say, I love Juno a lot. I know that most of the boys around me who have seen this movie don't like it very much, and most of the male viewers on Bean X don't like Juno very well. Of course I can understand. The three points of "pregnancy before marriage, no motherhood, and casual sex life" , each of which hits the boy's thunder point. Of course, it is impossible to like Juno.

But I love this movie.

"Juno" sounds like it's just a trifle about a young girl's unmarried pregnancy, but in fact, it's a film about love and growth. Under the husk of an unwed and pregnancies that is troublesome no matter how you think about it, "Juno" successfully tells a warm youth story.

The tone of the whole film is warm and full of youthful stumbling and immature collision. The warmth of course refers to the fact that the whole family, after learning the news of Juno's pregnancy, stayed by her side to encourage her and spend this uneasy time with her.

The collision of youth is also obvious. Juno and Brick are half-old children themselves, and they tasted the forbidden fruit without even knowing what love is. Juno didn't understand his feelings for Brick in the early stage, but later he realized it was because of an opportunity.

What I like most about "Juno" is that in "Juno", we can really see the unease, imperfection, and life choices of youth, and even the essence of part of marriage and love.

In Juno, no protagonist is perfect.

Juno himself, in the eyes of most Chinese men, is simply impossible. In fact, I don't agree with the casual sex life, because at least in the movie, she actually slept with Brick alone, but she took the initiative, even her family said, "You don't think it's Brick. Take the initiative." It can be seen that Juno was originally a person who was obsessed with smoking.

Even Juno's mother (although she is a stepmother, but very good) told Juno's father, and I think it must be Juno's initiative...

Most men don't know why they always think that a woman should have motherhood and like children, and Juno obviously does not. From the beginning to the end, she never thought about keeping the child, and even if she decides not to have an abortion later, she is sure to give it away. There is no such thing as "the child is born and sees the child, and he is reluctant to send him to bear the humiliation and burden to raise him", as some people's brains make up. They are very neat.

Needless to say, Brick didn't have all the hair. He was just a half-old child. When he heard the news of Juno's pregnancy, he was confused, let alone being responsible. He probably didn't care about having children at all. concept.

But after you watch the movie, you won't hate them at all (well...maybe many male audiences are not sensitive to Juno, I'm just saying my opinion), but you will feel that sixteen is not like this Is it right?

I definitely don't mean that you should have an unmarried child and have an abortion at the age of 16. You can see how ruthless I am when I usually diss domestic youth films as if I couldn't make an abortion without being pregnant. .

I mean, after watching the movie, you understand the protagonist. Because anyone's sixteen is childish, full of restlessness and stumbling. It doesn't have to be an accidental pregnancy like Juno, it can also be because of the endless homework, the crush who likes but doesn't like it, the 800-meter run is always failing when no one else runs... It can be all kinds of things .

It's just that Juno's troubles happened to be an unwed pregnancy.

As for my saying that in Juno you can see life choices, I also appreciate it very much.

One of the episodes that left a deep impression on me was when Juno was about to go to the hospital for an abortion. There was a propagandist against abortion at the entrance of the hospital. She advised Juno, but when she saw that Juno was still in the hospital, she just felt Unfortunately. Later, she saw Juno running out, and she happily shouted thank you for your decision from behind.

There is no moral kidnapping, no coercion, just expressing your own views and giving others a free choice.

I remember that there was a street interview in the United States or the United Kingdom. A man took the video of the abortion procedure (you don’t have to search for it, it’s really uncomfortable to watch) video to ask passers-by about the video. Of course, most people will say It looked uncomfortable and cruel or something.

That's when men ask them if you're in favor of banning abortion right now. An interesting scene appeared. Most men said yes after watching the video. This is really cruel. We should probably ban abortion, but most women still firmly insist that women should have the right to have an abortion.

Are women crueler than men? of course not.

It's not very pleasant to say, the fundamental reason is that if the pain is not on you, you just stand and talk without back pain.

Full of benevolence and morality, but in essence it is an act of generosity to others. I believe that everyone has seen it in their lives. This is one of them. Of course, I believe that these male interviewees didn't think so much. They just said this because they just watched the video and felt that it was really inhumane. But I always believe that the parties to the event are the only ones, or at least the ones most qualified to make decisions and choices. Such rights are inalienable.

So I'm glad there are very few countries that have banned abortion so far. Because sadly, most of the countries that ban abortion are the least concerned about the identification of children born out of wedlock. Their "kind" women do not allow "vicious" women to shed their children, but they don't care about the life after these unblessed and expected lives come to the world.

I think the correct attitude of those who truly sympathize with the unborn, but at the same time respect human rights, is like the girl in front of the hospital in Juno—

I pity every life, including the unborn, so I will advise you. But this is your body, your choice, and if you really insist, I will never think that I am qualified to stop you.

And in the end, the risk of pregnancy is 100% borne by women. In this case, shouldn't women have the full right to deal with it? (For married women, issues such as negotiation between family members are discussed separately. Women who are pregnant before marriage should have the right to choose 100%)

And Juno, though an immature girl, was resolute and determined. In the eyes of many men, she is a person without motherhood (in other words, I still don't understand what motherhood a 16-year-old girl wants), after giving birth to a child, she has no nostalgia, and she gave it away as soon as she said it. But she did not choose a family casually. She doesn't love this child, but she really wants this child to be happier than anyone else. Isn't this choice also responsible and kind?

From Juno, you can see a girl, or another form of a woman, which is also a kind of woman that some Asian boys strongly deny: women are not inherently "loving children and longing for family", women can not Motherhood, which in no way means they are not kind, they may even be more responsible than others. They are used to make choices to preemptively control their own lives. Their attitudes towards sex, marriage, love, and fertility may be immature but absolutely sober and independent.

In this world, there are women who yearn for a family and want to raise children like the wife who later adopted a child in the movie, and there are girls like Juno who have no interest in getting married and having children.

It's the same with us. By my side, there are a few close friends who grew up together or knew later. Among them, there are college classmates who fell in love and longed for marriage and children, and will enter the marriage hall early next year. There are also unexpected pregnancy like Juno, but they did not disrupt their plans, and decided to be alone. of high school friends who went to the hospital for surgery.

They are all normal people. They didn't get brainwashed by chicken soup, like many male netizens on Weibo Zhihu satirically, to marry Gao Fushuai with exquisite life. On the contrary, they hardly read this chicken soup, and they are not as easily brainwashed as you think. They are the most normal people in our lives.

On the contrary, many people point fingers at other people's choices and make up for the miserable lives of these girls who do not desire marriage and family. There are men and women, old and young, but they all don't know how to respect the choices of those who are different from themselves among the countless people in this world.

"Juno" is a youth film with the theme of love and growth in the shell of a young girl's unmarried pregnancy. good interpretation. I recommend this film to everyone. I hope everyone can see their own shadow in Juno, and then, like her, bravely face all kinds of episodes in life.
