The film was translated into a very eccentric title in some of the bay of islands, PP for The Female Secretary.
Talking about the heroine, to be precise, called "maid" is more in line with the character setting of this movie.
Maggie Gyllenhaal, say that she has acted in "The Amazing Crisis", "Batman: The Dark Knight", "Legend of Fallen Street" you may not have an impression, but he has an older brother named Jack Gyllenhaal, you must know, is the big god who starred in the high-scoring works "Brokeback Mountain", "Source Code", "Nightcrawler".
In the movie "Crazy Heart", a bland character is interpreted with tenacious wisdom and emotion, and this film makes the role of the female secret mysterious and sympathetic.
Maggie plays a character named Nini Hollywood, a person who lives in a discordant family and has "self-destructive" behavior and "abusive" psychological needs from an early age. After a period of psychiatric treatment, she returned home determined to reintegrate into normal life.
The threshold of "secretarial profession" is not high, it is also relatively popular, and there is still a lot of "very marginal" imagination space. So she began to learn typing and found a job as a typist in a law firm.
At the beginning, Nini, who was hairy, frequently had many problems in typing. Finally, the intolerable boss Gray (Grey's familiar name) called her to his office, and in order to make Nini remember her mistake, he made Nini lie on the desk, and then he began to pick up the leather whip from behind and punish her.
Unexpectedly, it awakened the "abuse need" buried in Nini's heart, she inadvertently got the feeling of chopsticks in the punishment of the boss, and since then her heart has been full of strong desire to be satisfied by abuse.
At the same time, it also stimulates Gray's "sense of home and master". Originally, the corporal punishment of the subordinate by the boss inadvertently produced a wonderful emotion between the two, which also weakened Nini's tendency to "self-abandonment" on the other hand, and became a simple enjoyment.
Nini irresistibly fell in love with the quirk boss, but as the boss, Green was ashamed to let people know his quirks, and his career was the foundation, so he fired Nini with pain. When Nini comes home to prepare for the wedding of her boyfriend Peter, she ghostly "escapes" to the office of her boss Gray...
I believe that this is a film that can surprise you, first of all, there is a script that seems to be very ordinary but the angle is very novel. It is as if chewing a sugar cane upside down, from plain to good, to stop the final refreshing. Although the plot revolves around sadomasochism, the theme is not "SaiQing film", "animal", or perverted animal.
The theme of the film is love.
