First Wellness Day of 2021

I was watching the drama Gloria (Silver Bear at the 63rd Berlin International Film Festival 2013) while reviewing my Value Framework Coaching course.

Gloria hummed to the rhythm of the speakers while driving, boldly breaking the pitch and out of tune; I freely switched...

Rightly tapping into the cliché of middle-age solitude, GLORIA, the up-and-coming Chilean filmmaker Sebastián Lelio's Golden Bear contender (rightfully won its leading actress Paulina García a coveted BEST ACTRSS gong), is a brutally honest take on our titular heroine's stagnated status quo and her...

The story of a middle-aged woman's single life Hunting for love

In addition to her daily work, Gloria's middle-aged life is hanging around the same bar and dancing with different men every day. When she returns home, she is faced with endless silence and emptiness. The relationship with her daughter...

Aging is a scarier thing than death. What you will face is ugliness, loneliness, vulnerability, sensitivity, helplessness, disease, weakness. More separations, and their own separations. Gloria is a lucky old woman who immerses herself in twilight romances, attends old age parties, has a good sex...

The difference between Westerners' attitudes towards life and Easterners' attitudes is obvious in this film. When they fall in love at such an age, they are not bound by age, but by the personality defects of the parties themselves. Rudolph is an unscrupulous coward, he longs for a new life, but...

Sebastian Lelio is, in my mind, a director who is very good at representing women. The first work I saw of him was Ordinary Woman, which was screened at the Berlin Film Festival. (“Una mujer fantástica,” which translates as “wonderful woman,” would be more appropriate.) “Ordinary Woman” is slow,...

I was attracted by the poster to watch this film. After all, it is difficult for a Chilean niche film without big-name directors and actors to arouse my interest, not to mention that it is still based on the love of the elderly. The only thing that can be regarded as a gimmick is Ben The heroine of...

This is a relatively interesting movie, and I say interesting doesn't mean you think it's interesting. I mean, the way I watch movies is interesting. After watching the trailer, I've been wanting to go to an academic movie theater in the basement to see this film, which is silently labeled "What If...

1. There seems to be political innuendo: the dancing skeleton villain, the heroine's life that she wants to change but cannot change, the man who loses weight with gastric bypass surgery, etc. 2. Seemingly enlightened family: the daughter is pregnant before marriage, and the son is a single father,...

Unlike films that try to grab the audience's attention in the first three minutes, this Berlin Silver Bear Gloria gets better as it gets closer to the end. If you are fortunate enough to endure the lengthy, flat story of the first half, from the second third of the film onwards, you can encounter...
