Fans of old dramas know that Starz's American dramas are simple and rough but extremely good-looking, and the very famous "Spartacus" in China is from it.
Today's recommended "Call Girlfriend" is no exception, the title of the play is very straightforward, mainly telling the story of a female college student as a "part-time girlfriend"...
Although the play revolves around the call, and there are various eye-catching plot settings in the play, the screenwriter cleverly added comedy elements to make the whole play both deep and relaxed.
The most important thing is that "Call Girlfriend" explores the "real life" of this group of marginalized people and their mental journey to the call.
It's both brutal and realistic.
Each season of the show is a new storyline, and the word of mouth is the best and it is worth mentioning the first season.
The core of the story revolves around the heroine "Christine", who is a student at a university law school and also works as an intern at a well-known law firm.
To the outside world, she is a typical hard-working, ambitious, and good-looking elite.
But in fact, she has long been overwhelmed by the high tuition fees and living expenses.
So by chance, she tried to enter the circle of "call girlfriend"...
Initially, Kristen entered the industry with a tentative attitude, but soon she found herself at ease with it.
By day, she is a diligent legal intern;
At night, she is the "girlfriend" who is quite acclaimed...
This double life makes Christine constantly test on the edge of morality, and it also makes her inner world full of contradictions and struggles.
The "highlights" of "Call Girlfriend" are very full, not only the conflict between the heroine and various "customers with strange requirements", but also the entanglement between her and her boss during her internship.
The whole plot basically revolves around the heroine's inner struggle and growth.
At the climax of the episode, Christine finally realizes that she is worth far more than all that she does.
She began to use the knowledge she had learned in law and her advanced interpersonal skills to fight for a more dignified and worthwhile life for herself, and this transformation also allowed her to regain her self-esteem...
In general, the theme of "Call Girlfriend" is indeed a gimmick, but the screenwriter did not just rely on scale to attract audiences, and the first season of the show is still worth watching.
