It's a "Crash"-style ideological movie

Because many people who have watched the movie before can't understand the movie Crash, I will write a movie review specially. It contains a lot of spoilers. I hope you know.

At the beginning of the film, the male and female protagonists talk to each other about their views on their spouses, and some of the contents of the female protagonist's letter have been withheld.

During the mediation between the two parties and the consultant, the heroine refused to read her letter, which laid a foreshadowing for the attitude of the heroine who hesitated to speak.

The perspective is on the male protagonist's side. What he sees is that their relationship is okay, but when he switches to the female protagonist's side, she applies for a divorce as soon as she arrives in Los Angeles.

She knew exactly what she wanted. She is also very clear that the male protagonist can't see it.

The male protagonist went to see her at the female protagonist's house. Her friends and mother liked him very much. In fact, the male protagonist has many advantages and is very popular, but when the camera reaches the female protagonist, she still loves him, but insists on divorce.

At this time, the male protagonist was always in a state of confusion. He didn't understand what happened, but many details began to show that he couldn't feel others with his heart. He was very polite. He found a nice lawyer. He never noticed what the hostess was thinking, and the hostess was also very polite.

He asked himself what his child wanted to wear for Halloween, the child wanted to wear it with friends, and he wanted the child to wear it with himself. He asked the kid's friends in New York to play with, and the kid told him that those people didn't like him and that he liked the friends he met in Los Angeles. Including the family guardian who came to visit later, he hoped that the child would learn mathematics well, and the child likes sports the most. He's never been able to know his own kids, but he's loving, he's polite, he's talented, and he just has a hard time feeling others.

To quote a line they later quarreled about, he was very selfish, he merged with his selfishness, and he didn't even feel that he was selfish.

Well, here comes the clue to the slack.

He was at odds with his parents. When arguing that he was like his own father, he became furious. At the end of the hidden part of the female lead's letter, when the male lead read it himself, he read a few words when he was a child, paused and skipped it.

Yes, this is the part of the film that is veiled and not directly addressed. Those who were unable to love when they were young, grow up to be incapable of loving.

This is also a male ego passed down from generation to generation. When the male protagonist scratched himself, the family guardian kept asking him, are you ok? He still did not seek even a little help. The heroine and her mother also had obvious differences, but she chose to reconcile and her heart was released.

Until he finally moved back to Los Angeles, went to the room and read the letter, the heroine stood at the door crying, not knowing what to say.

At the end, he is holding the child, and it is very interesting for the heroine to tie his shoelaces. In fact, what he lacks is him when he was a child. There is a mother by his side. Seeing that his shoelaces are loose, come over and tie him quietly. .

Besides, the old man in their theater is very interesting. He is very similar to the male protagonist. He became famous at a very young age, and then he became a Madaha who was chattering and couldn't feel the people around him. The female lawyer is very sharp. She admires the talent of the male protagonist, but when the selfishness of the male protagonist is out of control, she said something, when you want what you want, it becomes a decision, and when she wants what she wants became a discussion. When she described that God didn't descend to earth, but let a virgin give birth to a child, and then took care of the child, and the man had no good things in the past 30 years, I was directly facing the screen. Fuck, it's too sharp to burn.

So the whole story, from the perspective of several women, the heroine, her mother, the female lawyer, the female family guardian, and the relationship with the male protagonist constitute a very harmonious and heart-wrenching scene. Respond with tolerance. And the father's love he lacks can't be solved.

Later, the male protagonist still doesn't love animals and still can't listen, which constitutes the explanation of the whole conflict, that is, only the male protagonist can figure it out.

At this point, the whole movie is over.

As for , I'd like to quote from a conversation I had with a beanie I explained to him about discrimination. For example, discriminating against the poor, those who scold the poor and complain about the poor are just an appearance. The real discrimination is that you live well and get along well with every neighbor. One day your home is suddenly stolen, and the first thing you suspect is the poorest neighbor.

In the end, I really hope that Marriage Story can win the Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress at this Oscar.
