Who's youth is not rebellious.
This is a rebellious teenage girl movie.
I don't know how to appreciate this kind of film, maybe it's the delicateness of the film that expresses the embarrassment, rebellion, trying, and searching of youth in the film.
It seems that Hollywood loves this type of film the most.
Obviously there is a lovely girl's name given by her parents, but she doesn't use it. The stubbornness of the little girl, she named herself Lady Bird, perhaps the implication is that she wants to fly, yearn for freedom, and fly out of her parents' control over her.
The little girl uses all means to approach people who are not of her own class, her vanity, she wants to be rich, she wants to live in a big house, she wants to have sex with rich boys.
In fact, there are also some fears in the film. For example, before she wants to have sex for the first time, she asks her mother what age is the age to have sex. Her mother said that if she wants to know how to protect herself, she still recommends that she start going in college. try. In this section, I think that if the mother shows a little more concern, the girl may feel safer, and feel that the mother really loves her and cares about her, instead of criticizing her endlessly all day long.
The relationship between mother and daughter is the most difficult relationship for us to articulate. Mom loves us and wants to protect us all the time because she wants us to be our best selves. In the scene in the fitting room, lady bird told her mother, what if I am the best me now? Mom didn't answer. In fact, no matter what kind of selves we are, mothers will always welcome us with open arms.
When lady bird went to college in New York behind her mother's back, her mother was really angry and she ignored her daughter. No matter what her daughter begs her, no matter what she says. . Mom's heart is struggling, just like the pages of letters, she wants to tell her that she loves her, and she doesn't want her to leave. Although she is angry with her, her heart still hurts. Like she could feel it driving back to the airport and crying so hard.
It was only when we left the house that we realized that it was for this reason that my mother said these words. When she goes to school, when she goes to the hospital drunk and no one cares, she goes into church, the God she never believed in. When she walked out of church to call her mother, I thought of us who were rebellious.
Perhaps writing here, I understand the director's intentions. Maybe this is a good film showing the rebellion of young girls.
