由于自身的局限，我们也只能对那些适合自身局限的电影深有体会。
"Marriage Story" is a broken story. It looks like a family that is not struggling. The cracks in the family are hidden under the sea. Charlie has a cheating lover in his marriage. Nicole feels that he and his life are held in the palm of Charlie's hand. I'm getting lighter and smaller~ In this marriage, Charlie and Nicole are not satisfied, Charlie is frivolous and dissatisfied, and instead pursues the additives of life, Nicole is the one who can't breathe, is If you have been in the water for too long, you must stretch your neck to breathe.
When Nicole filed for divorce, they were still in love (at least they felt that way in each other's hearts), so their tacit agreement was not to ask a lawyer to negotiate a divorce. But the brilliance of the film begins with the lawyer's intervention. When Nicole's friends recommended her a lawyer, when she went to see the female lawyer played by Laura Dern, and even when she told the female lawyer about her marital problems, she still didn't understand the meaning of a lawyer and the possible direction of things after getting a lawyer. From the standpoint of lawyers, it is to strive for the best interests of their clients. After seeing a lot of divorce, lawyers know in their hearts that they have reached this point, and all roads are dead ends. Instead of being a peacemaker, talking about " one-day husband and wife one hundred days of grace " won't solve any problems. Emotions cannot solve rational problems. Once the relationship is discussed, Nicole, as a woman, has to return to the weak side. The
video uses the words of a female lawyer to say "Heavenly Father doesn't even have fxck", which can be the best contemporary feminist speech, and it should anger a considerable number of fathers, especially those with Christian/Catholic beliefs.
The idea of a good father was only invented like 30 years ago
Before that,fathers were expected to be silent
careless, unreliable, selfish and absent and unreliable and selfish,
of course we want them to change and can all say we want them to be different
But on some basic level, we accept them.
Emotionally also don't accept it spiritually
Because the basis of our Judeo-Christian whatever
is Jesus is Mary, Mother of Jesus, and she's perfect.
She's a virgin who gives birth,
unwaveringly supports her child and
holds his dead body tenderly And the dad isn't there. He didn't even do the fucking.
God is in heavenGod is in heaven.
God is the father and God didn't show up.
So you have to be perfect
No impact, and Charlie can be fuck up and it doesn't matter
You will always be held to a different, higher standard.
fucked up, but that's the way it is.
Charlie pleaseTwo lawyers, the first is an elderly moderate, his attitude is: arguing over details will cost more money and energy. However, time will be on your side. These words can soothe the soul.
Charlie's second lawyer is very strong, pushing their divorce battle to the point of tit-for-tat. "How did things get to this point?" With similar feelings, they tried to sit together and have a good talk, but the subsequent development proved that it was only a vain attempt. The ten-minute quarrel hits the soul directly, and all the small details are transformed into big resentments.
Nicole's wishes are completely ignored, they can go to Europe for half a year for Charlie's work, and they don't think about going to Los Angeles for Nicole's work for a year. Charlie's wish on the strong side will become a deal, and Nicole's wish on the weak side can only stay at the "discussion" stage. In Charlie's story, Charlie becomes the vehicle Nicole uses to escape Los Angeles and try a new life.
When talking about the child's feelings, Charlie always believes that the child's choice to continue living in New York is Nicole's instigation, not the child's real thoughts. After peeling off the skin of intimacy, there are disgusting interests left. Charlie slammed the wall and broke out, using "YOU" in all languages, and he even convicted Nicole with insulting words and cursed Nicole. And Nicole is relatively restrained and only talks about his own feelings: I can't believe that I have to know you for the rest of my life. I think at that moment Nicole recognized her lawyer's correctness from the bottom of her heart.
The performance of this period of realism is extremely sharp, real and wonderful. There is never a real empathy in the world. Two independent individuals can never truly understand each other. They are bound to each other in their own narrative. is their own story. It's hard to be objective.
The only thing that strikes me as unreal is that Nicole still reassures a broken-hearted Charlie after being cursed so maliciously. Charlie politely said sorry, and Nicole's soothing should also be interpreted as purely polite. She should have completely given up on this man in her heart, and her love has disappeared.
Scarlett's acting is phenomenal. I just watched her "Jojo Rabbit" a few days ago. It is a completely different mother image from this film, and each has its own charm. Adam, who plays Charlie, once starred in "Drunken Country Ballads", he is not impressed, and it is also a good film.
Intimate relationships are never equal: one side gives silently, the other enjoys it for granted and justifiably.
