The hottest topic recently is "Youth as a Teenager", and I went to join in the fun for the first time. I have to say, the quality of this movie exceeded my expectations.
The director's technical skills are good, and Zhou Dongyu's acting skills are also fully worthy of the honor of the Golden Horse Actress. I wanted to applaud at the movie theater for several of her reactions and details.
And Yi Yangqianxi also got good grades in his first big screen assignment. His eyes are full of drama, and his younger brother's actor career can be expected in the future.
Compared with the acclaimed acting skills of the actors, I think this movie still has some room for improvement in terms of plot.
Although this film is one of the few domestic works that pays attention to school violence, it does not actually discuss school violence itself more deeply. More often, school violence is the background, the introduction, and the plot driver for the emotional development of the male and female protagonists, and it is to serve the emotional line of the male and female protagonists. Therefore, the cause, process and result of school violence are actually taken carelessly, and a very juvenile, intense and decisive painful literary ending has been added to it.
Why does bullying exist? Who is the perpetrator of the tragedy? Why are you being bullied? How can we deal with bullying?
The American drama "Thirteen Reasons Why" that I want to recommend today carefully discussed and worked hard to answer these. You may wish to watch it with me.
"Thirteen Reasons Why" is a teenage suspense drama released by Netflix in 2017, adapted from Jay Aisha's novel of the same name, and has been updated to its third season. Starting from the suicide tragedy of Hannah, a female high school student, the play uses the 13 tapes she left behind as clues to reveal the truth of school bullying at Liberty High School. The truth is painful, sympathetic, sad, and powerless.
PS This story is linked to each other, so it may accidentally spoil the story. I try to keep the maximum suspense, and roughly draw the key points, and leave the rest for you to enjoy.
Compared with the world of the jungle, the school that has always been regarded as an ivory tower is actually not that pure. The smaller the border, the more clearly graded it is, and because the social area is surrounded by the school's railings, there is even nowhere to escape.
Hannah, who just transferred to the school, is beautiful and lively, and she caught everyone's attention as soon as she appeared. Would such a cute girl be bullied too?
Can.
Because, without her knowledge, she was taken privately by her date while dating;
Because she "supposedly" refused to come, but rejected a top student's request for a gun appointment;
Angry because her female friend found out she was "les" after playing the kissing game with her;
Because her other two friends have become lovers, she is superfluous;
Because she told her former good friend the fact that she saw it with her own eyes, but it was difficult for her friend to accept...
Are these her fault? While she was a participant in these events, she was more often a victim. But no one cares about that.
Therefore, in everyone's eyes, she became a "slut", a "fake audacity", a wild "bi" who played with her, and a "bitch" who was jealous of the good life of her friends and wentssips.
There is no hands-on plot in this show, and Hannah is not stopped in an alley every day after school and beaten. However, each person is gossiping, the strange eyes when looking at you, the physical contact that can be avoided, and everyone's invariable behavior, as if you have a barrier around you, which directly isolates you in a cold world.
The closed ring that was originally small, they automatically retreated, and a concentric cage was specially built for you, and they threw you in it, making you feel unbearable.
To borrow a high-frequency sentence from a while ago: "After you died, the world began to love you." When you look at the flowers in front of Hannah's closet after her suicide, you'd think how popular and loved she was before.
Hannah's suicide was indeed the last straw that broke her, but as she said in the 13 tapes she prepared, not a single snowflake was innocent.
Most of the time, we probably don't do much. We gossip like others say, we tell a lie to defend ourselves, and we say a big thing to show off ourselves. Little things add up to a butterfly effect, and we become bullies unknowingly.
Some people will say that she has a chance to be photographed privately if she is not careful, that she has no chance of being bitten back if she does not play kissing games with girls, and that if she had been a little bit prudent, she would not have suffered such a nightmare and there would have been no final tragedy. Is she not wrong at all? she has. Hannah reflected on it well, and even attributed more mistakes to himself.
Hannah's mother also said she was not a "perfect victim". If you asked me, I would also say that some of her actions are really confusing and inappropriate in terms of the story presented in the play. But that's not the reason for her to suffer those things.
There are scenes of sexual assault in "Thirteen Reasons Why", which is so real that it makes people feel angina. The show clearly conveys a defined attitude towards sexual assault. Sex is your wish. Forcible entry without the other party explicitly saying yes is considered sexual assault. A girl is sitting across from you in a bikini. Maybe the pony carriage in your mind has run to 10,000 wonderful endings. When the girl raises her hand, she thinks that she is scratching her head and seducing you. At this time, the overlord is not a matter of love, and when the girl says No, she is not trying to refuse but to play hard to catch.
The so-called dress is the freedom of others, but it is not the reason for anyone to commit crimes.
As the middle school teacher in the second season said in court: " No man can't control himself ".
This drama is not a comedy, you will feel very depressed after watching it. But this drama is really meaningful. He is seriously revealing a cruel world for us, trying to awaken some of our awareness. After watching it, we really have to reflect on ourselves. Ordinary unintentional actions, repeating what others say, and watching indifferently, may be a huge harm to another person. We must not stop at saying "no" to school violence and cyber violence, but also bravely lend a helping hand. Maybe a little care from you can change another person's life.
Let's make the world a better place together. We can.
