Recently, there has been a lot of news on gender issues, whether it is the N room incident in South Korea, or the death of Peking University girl Bao Li, as well as Bao Yuming's sexual assault of underage girls, or the latest development of many Mitu incidents, which have constantly caused us new anger, new thinking and new changes.
This time, let's not talk about the recent topic, let's talk about a recent American movie that also deals with gender topics, "Breaking News", which is co-starred by Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman and Margot Robbie, telling the story of the sex scandal between executives and several female anchors in fox news stations in the United States.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="01" > overall feeling</h1>
The film's expression is simple and crude, and the effectiveness caused by it is useful for American audiences, but it may be ineffective for Chinese audiences. Audiences who need to explore gender-related issues can actually have more alternatives than less need for such films. But at the same time, women's films are very rare genres in Hollywood, and to put it mildly politically correct, the participation of several leading actors is still positively helpful for the spread of such a genre. For many ordinary people, when they receive the expression of a film and television work, they may first substitute their own identity, if they have not done what the film criticizes, then they themselves may have lost the opportunity to deeply contact the work. Everyone is good to see this movie, and although it is not as intense, it may provide an opportunity for self-reflection.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="02" > the advantages</h1>
The acting skills of the three heroines are excellent
The overall costumes, costumes, taoisms and actors are very well coordinated, and they are no less than the real people. Several people can see real people on TV every day being reproduced by actors, which is very enjoyable. The state of the characters is rich and three-dimensional, and the performance state is very good.
At the same time, three different women represent three different mentalities and different reactions to the same thing, except for Robbie's slightly weaker character, the other two characters survived the real and rich.
The theme does not deliberately focus on topics such as sexual harassment in the workplace
In addition to the issues about the workplace, the film also lays the groundwork for the relationship between the internal structure of the entire FOX news station, which seems to be relatively simple and superficial.
There is a certain degree of representation of the American judicial system
Because the film is an adaptation of real events, the psychological description of the parties has a more vivid reproduction of how the institutions and departments act, how to handle the case, and so on. And the film compares the Presidential Election in the United States to a reality show, which is a very intuitive and interesting expression.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="03" > disadvantages</h1>
Compared with the American drama "The Loudest Voice" with the same theme, this film is relatively sloppy in the vein of male characters. What kind of workplace situation did he suffer, and how did he become what he is today? In addition, if this film can describe the so-called capitalist symbols more clearly. In fact, capital has a characteristic of chasing interests, that is to say, what kind of views are needed in the market, there will be what kind of views capital produces to seize that part of the audience, and the lack of description of this characteristic is a very regrettable part.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="04" > some other thoughts</h1>
At the practical level, in order to change the status quo of women's existence and bridge the contradictions between the two sexes, both men and women should maintain normal communication with the opposite sex, and this issue cannot be changed by women alone. Although the way of thinking and speaking that everyone adopts is very different, the reality is that there is male oppression of women, but many times, many men are not full of malice, and even you can see the unconscious behavior of some men as the result of their oppression by patriarchal culture. If women do not communicate, ordinary men who may not have woken up will never be able to understand the most basic feelings of some women. For example, last year's hit movie "Jin Zhiying in 82 Years" mentioned that this communication is actually a two-way street, and the male protagonist in that film talked about colleagues and his mother's opposition after proposing to take children at home, which may make him realize the daily life he once suffered as a woman.
So, communication is very important! Please keep communicating moderately with your loved ones, family, friends, and co-workers.
