Speaking of the recent hit show "He Doesn't Love You That Into You" by iQiyi, I always think of another classic movie "He's Just Not That Into You". Movies and TV series are all about the relationship problems of several urban sisters.
Why there are so many female-themed film and television dramas in the first half of the year
If you follow the drama seriously in the first half of the year, it is not difficult to find that there have been so many female TV dramas in the past six months.
The best seller of "Settle Down", He Fanxing, the middle-aged lover in "The Next Stop Is Happiness", Stella, the superwoman in "Perfect Relationship", and the gold broker in "Blame You Too Beautiful" Mo Xiangwan, Gu Jia, who is more ambitious than her husband in "Thirty Only", and even Liang Shuang, a female college student in "Twenty Do Not Confused", is doing business as a carrier with goods, and she is so mixed up in the society. .
Liang Shuang, a female college student in "Twenty Do Not Confused", positioned herself as a "tempered beauty blogger" and her career ambition was not a little bit
can't help but raise questions: Why are there so many female-themed movies and TV shows in the first half of the year?
In fact, there are never a few female subjects in film and television dramas.
In the traditional sense, female images in film and television can be divided into four categories. One is with the help of well-known beauties, such as Yang Yuhuan, one of the four beauties in "The Story of Yang Yuhuan"; the other is the weak girl who is in danger and is eager to be rescued, such as the bullied by stepmother in "Cinderella" Cinderella; the third is the flawless and submissive lady, such as the good wife Feng Wanyu in "Return", the hardworking orchid in "The Ordinary World"; the fourth is the witch who opposes all high-quality female images, the common Su Daji, various Fairies and Xiaosan are all representatives of this type.
Fan Bingbing's Su Daji, although extremely beautiful, she represents the "demon girl" who harms the country and the people
But whether it is a beautiful woman, a weak woman, a lady or a witch, it is a classification standard from a male perspective. As the famous film theorist Laura Mulvey said: "Hollywood movies are rooted in three kinds of'watching'." In fact, it is the viewing of female actors by the camera, the viewing of female characters by the male characters in the film, and the audience watching on TV. Watching female actors in front of the plane.
With the gradual awakening and budding of female consciousness, women are no longer satisfied with the stereotypes of female roles in traditional film and television dramas. Therefore, there have been female stories other than "Mother-in-law's family trivia" and "Silly and sweet love story", and strong women began to appear on the big screen.
It is not difficult to understand the proliferation of female subjects in film and television dramas in the first half of the year, especially strong women subjects.
Stella in "Perfect Relationship" is a typical career woman
The same is true for women in"He Doesn't Love You That". Different from Stella's aggressiveness in "Perfect Relationship", the female image in "He Actually Doesn't Love You That" is closer to reality and more grounded.
Sun Yehe (Song Qian) is the producer who rescued the company from distress, Ren Ran (Li Chun) is the vigorous vice president of DMA, Karen (Lu Jingshan) is a gym partner and an optimistic single mother, Ding Ding ( Zhang Jianing) Although his family is well-off, he is dissatisfied with arranged marriages and dared to fight for his dream of "boy group agent".
But coincidentally, they all have the same problem: relationship problems.
episode, Sun Yehe invited three close friends to drink "breakup wine". But when the person who broke up explained, she fell into the arms of the other party again, and mistakenly thought that the other party wanted to propose to her.
Ren Ran waited bitterly for Lu Hao for six years, only to say "I'm afraid I will hurt you" and leave without saying goodbye. In the last second, she made a vow and stopped paying attention to the scumbag; but after Lu Hao returned to Shanghai, Ren Ran believed him again and decided to marry him.
Sun Yehe, the all-round producer, is obsessed with the gentle homeland of the elite male Sam.
Karen is a single mother. She was shown favor by countless men in the gym. Although she is usually vigorous and unrestrained, she thought about the goodness of the sky for 48 hours before agreeing to socialize with each other.
Ding Ding deliberately acted boldly and coquettishly in front of the blind date in order to block the "arranged marriage" of the right family, but unknowingly he and Yang Sirui sprouted love.
Ren Ran's monologue in "He Doesn't Love You That"
Gu Jia in "Thirty Only" is an out-of-reach all-rounder, and Stella in "Perfect Relationship" is a terrifying strong woman. These two seem to be innovative female characters, but they are too empty: In reality, can anyone achieve perfect careers, relationships, and families?
In contrast, "He Actually Doesn't Love You That So" is more eclectic, which is equivalent to building a bridge between dream and reality, allowing the image of women who have been suspended to truly fall to the ground.
Why people in love always like to ask for a "promise"
In the movie "He’s Just Not That Into You (He’s Just Not That Into You)" in, married mad Beth meets her boyfriend Neil, who doesn’t want to jump into the marriage grave. Beth yearns for marriage and desires to make a promise of "love forever" with Neil. However, Neal is afraid of the shackles of this oath and is never willing to give Beth a "promise of love."
Beth once questioned Neal because he didn’t want to get married.
The TV series "He Actually Doesn't Love You That So much" also has a similar plot. Lu Hao, who once hurt Ren Ran, wants to marry her after his divorce. After Ren Ran’s best friend, Sun Yihe, knew that, because he was afraid that Ren Ran would be harmed again, he first strongly opposed it, and then asked Lu Hao to "guarantee that he would love Ranran forever."
Lu Hao smiled, noncommittal. Another best friend Ding Ding asked in a rhetorical question: "Then he promises you to believe it?"
"He doesn't actually love you so much" golden sentence
Whether it is an American movie in 2009 or a Chinese TV series in 2020, women seem to be uneasy about their feelings and want a strong commitment to continue their current passion and protect their lives in the future.
However, it is just like what is said in "The Later Us": all the people who love each other say when they are emotional, the promises they make are also true, and the passion is also true. As for who later failed others, It's all later things, who can predict it in advance.
is not a guarantee that love will last a lifetime, and promise is the most useless thing in a relationship. Firm feelings don’t need promises to add to the cake, and fragile feelings can’t be helped by promises.
Regardless of the opposition of his mother and best friend, Ren Ran decides to believe in the sincerity of the moment and marries Lu Hao
Compared with the traditional female image who blindly believes in eachother and will never change until death, Ren Ran in "He Actually Doesn't Love You That" has taken a qualitative leap. The promise to guarantee the future is no longer important to her. Enjoying the present with the loved one, not thinking about the past and fearing the future, is the essence of happiness.
Why do you know the truth about marriage, there are still people who marry one after another
Nietzsche said: There is only one kind of heroism in the world, which is to still love life after recognizing the truth of life.
Karen became a single mother after divorcing singer Wang Marco. She is not only an excellent fitness coach, but also a partner of the gym.
Karen who longs for a practical life, with a dream-seeking, bohemian singer, married life is destined to be bad. After experiencing a broken marriage, Karen's life creed became: make money, make more money, and make countless money. For her, material is the necessities of life, and love is just the spice of life.
"He doesn't actually love you so much" golden sentence: The only thing in marriage is to know
However, even though she had experienced such marital setbacks, she fell in love with Yu Tian, a young guy in the gym. Karen once said a golden sentence similar to Nietzsche: true heroism is willing to marry after knowing the essence of marriage. She is such a warrior.
"He doesn't actually love you that much" Karen's summary of marriage
we will always seeSome "how to grasp the object's heart", "ten tips to save the object" and so on. It seems that emotions can look for patterns and opportunistic. In fact, it is not. There are no so-called emotional skills. Even the same person, at different times and places, will make different choices for the same problem. Those who are still happy after entering marriage must be those who have seen the essence of marriage, accepted the dark side of marriage, and are still willing to exchange their sincerity for their sincerity.
"Children who have been burnt still love fire". Love is fascinating. Marriage is just like a feather, but marriage is not so much the end of love, as it is the starting point of another challenge.
Beth and Neal finally entered into marriage under the blessing of everyone
At the end of the movie "He's Just Not That Into You", Beth accepted Neal's unmarriageism and decided not to make any promises, just spend a happy time with him.
But at this moment she found the diamond ring in Neal's pocket. In order to realize Beth's dream, Neil, who was afraid of marriage, secretly bought a diamond ring and decided to marry her.
movie "He’s Just Not That Into You (He’s Just Not That Into You)" golden sentence
Childish love is to love oneself by loving others, and when you put down your guard and give your heart, mature love will come.
As said in "Love at dawn": When you start to get tired of a person, it is the beginning of your true love with him.
