"Chick movies" were for a while the "traffic code" of domestic films.
For example, "33 Days of Lost Love", "Breakup Contract", "Get Out! Tumor Jun", "The Five Years That Were Stolen"...
Let Bai Baihe become the head of the "chick movie".
But this is not a domestic limited name, in fact, in Europe and the United States has long been a fairly mature type, out of a lot of high scores.
Like the well-known "Legal Lady", "Notting Hill", "Queen in Prada", are typical "chick movies".
What Crow wants to recommend today is the highest quality "chick movie" in recent years.
Authority media scrambled to list it as a "film of the year" list, and Norway chose it to compete for "Best International Film" for this year's Oscar: "The Worst Man in the World"
Northern Europe, The capital of Norway, Oslo.
Yulia, a college student, her life is a mess:
In order not to waste good grades, she enrolled in the demanding medical profession.
But I found that the boring human anatomy class, like a carpenter, was not interested at all, so I ran to study psychology...
When brushing ins, I thought it should be good to be a photographer, directly took a student loan to buy a camera lens, and immersed myself in creation...
Later, he went to the bookstore to work part-time, and he became passionate about writing...
Confused Yulia, completely unable to sink into the study, everything is 3 minutes of heat.
Love life is also the same arbitrary, once it feels wrong, it is quick to get out, and there has not been a stable and long-term relationship so far...
At one party, Yulia meets a well-known local cartoonist, Ak.
This man is in his 40s, talking funny, artistic creativity makes him a contradictory synthesis of temperament uncle and wayward teenager.
After a good night's sleep, Yulia falls out of control with him...
But when the passion cools, people must face those real problems caused by individual differences.
Yulia is no exception, and Ak, who has entered a new stage of life, hopes to have a child to fill the gap in life and become the "gregarious" one in the circle of friends.
However, Yulia, who was still looking for herself in a fog, did not consider the issue of fertility at all, which caught her off guard...
During an argument, Acker said: Many people have children before they know that they have children, and they will always have a way.
Yulia said that she hated this, and the decision-making power was always on the man's side.
She has never resisted having children, but her experience at this stage is not enough to support her and play a good role as a mother.
One day, Yulia, who was home alone, came across a party halfway through, and she went straight in.
Even she herself did not expect that what happened at this party would bring her another turning point in her life...
Released in 2021, the "Worst Man in the World" was directed by the Norwegian director "Joachim Tyre", "Renate Reinsv" as Yulia, "Anders Danielson Lee" as Ak, Douban score 7.9, IMDb rating 8.0, the reputation is very good.
In the just-announced 94th Academy Nominations, the film received two nominations: "Best International Film" and "Best Original Screenplay".
The 3 lead actors celebrated the film's Oscar nomination
The heroine Renate, an unknown actor, Douban introduced her to only 5 words, "Norwegian actress".
But with this film, she won a post-film trophy at last year's Cannes Film Festival.
In fact, before meeting the character of Yulia, Renate herself was the "worst person in the world".
Because her acting career has not improved, at that time she had decided to give up the profession of an actor and change her career to become a carpenter, but she still insisted on finishing this play, and she did not expect to get the Cannes film queen...
The male protagonist Anders, an old face of European films, has a wonderful performance in films such as "Ensemble", "Norway's 7.22 Explosion Shooting", "Summer Inspiration" and so on.
But many people may not know that in addition to acting, Anders is still a general practitioner for 15 years, and he is still on the front line of vaccination during the epidemic, which is really excellent across industries...
The title of "The Worst Man in the World" is a summary of Yulia's living conditions, while the French title "Twelve Rhythms of Yulia's Life" directly points out the narrative structure.
The film is divided into 12 chapters, focusing on the confused Yulia, the impact of several choices on life, with love as the incision of life, showing a 30-year-old woman, in the process of seeking self-worth, those bloody scabs growth experience.
If judged according to the values of the current countrymen, Yulia is definitely a representative of the "scumbag".
She has a lot of sexual encounters, changing boyfriends such as changing new clothes, partying with her model boyfriend, and as a result, she sparks with Ak, and when she is with Acker, she meets another man at a strange party...
But she never avoids or hides, her deepest desires, and chooses to be honest with everything.
Yulia is bold, wise, does not pander or accommodate, but her bad intentions are stubble after stubble.
Yulia lives in Norway, one of the best countries in the world for equal rights and welfare, and even so, 30+ women are still plagued by acute fertility problems.
Acker feels that at the age of 44, the friends around him have already had a happy family, and he is still alone, and whenever he gathers, the topic around him is always inseparable from the child.
Marital and childbearing anxieties, rooted in age anxiety, were transferred to Yulia.
But she was different, she was still hesitating about the question of "self", so she didn't think that she would be a good mother at this time.
Acker said that this mentality of Yulia, very immature, kept persuading, trying to convince Yulia...
Isn't this a disguised "emotional kidnapping"?
When Acker's friend first met Yulia, he asked, "Is there anything you want to do?" The kind of profession?
Yulia's words were slurred, and her plans for the future were indeed vague, and such questioning made Yulia feel offended.
More than that.
When Yulia shared her female perspective, she was described by Acker's male friend as "motherly preaching":
Yulia said that as a woman, she knows many male problems, such as premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, always obsessed with young girls, etc. In the books and movies, these are talked about everywhere...
But there is very little space to talk about women's menstruation, orgasm, desire, these naturally existing, should not become "unspeakable" taboo topics...
She is indulgent and willful, but she sees the crux of the times and the social pain points thoroughly.
Ak indulged in comic creation, snubbed Yulia, so that the relationship between the two, become dull and boring, Yulia directly wrote a "wisdom Viagra" in one breath, figuratively narrating her inner desires, po online and other women to share...
No matter what she does, she is only loyal to herself and never shy away from anything.
There are two places in the film, which use a surrealist approach to expression, and are also the crow's favorite two scenes.
The first one, early one morning, Yulia turned on the kitchen light, the world fell silent for an instant, and everyone stopped...
She rushed out the door and ran down the street, a long-lost smile hanging on her face again...
She ran all the way to the man she met at the party, holding hands, kissing, sitting on a park bench, looking at the city of Oslo at sunset...
Then I went home, turned off the lights, and everything was back to business...
A few minutes later, she told Ake to break up.
In the second scene, Yulia hallucinates after chewing on "psychedelic mushrooms".
She was naked, smearing two scarlets under her eyes, just like the battle angel Alita...
This is Yulia, the silent confrontation against the suffocating male power.
Later, going around, Yulia discovers that there is no perfect lover in the world, someone who is willing to tolerate your stinky temper, someone who is willing to listen to all your thoughts, someone who can fulfill your desire to go far away...
Desperate to leave the man that Ak was running to, she was not a perfect object of love.
Yulia came to the hospital to visit Ake, who was suffering from terminal cancer, only to find that what she cared about most had already been...
Acker said: If there is anything I regret, it is that I never let you see what a good person you are...
Yulia couldn't help herself, and maybe it was at that moment that she finally understood something...
"The Worst Man in the World" reminds me of a saying: Missing out is worse than fault.
No one stipulates that at what age, something must be done.
Like Yulia, everyone is rampaged in confusion and grows up slowly.
Perhaps, at some point in my life, what happened to you and me will bring about the feeling that "I am the worst person in the world", this feeling of sadness...
The crow wants to say: Don't worry, take your time, remember, always be true to yourself, never regret the choice!
