      While sympathizing with the heroine's experience, he seems to understand the behavior of the old man's family

      You said that you have been married to the opposite sex for most of your life, and you have two children. When you are in your fifties, you suddenly like "men", to be precise, transgender women. Who can stand this situation? Besides, the plot should be an affair of the old man's marriage. His family didn't bother them, but the old man was a little rough on the heroine after his death. Therefore, we can't kidnap the old man's family with too much morality.
      As for the heroine, she and the...

      The most powerful counterattack is to counterattack quietly

      If the Danish girl is a self-exploration of an adult's inner gender consciousness awakening, then this movie is how to survive in a world full of prejudice when you switch genders.

      Danish girls are also actors who need to perform for their roles. Here, even the heroine herself is a transgender person in real life, but she is more comfortable.

      I didn't notice this in the process of watching the...

      Ordinary woman to ordinary you

      The video I'm going to recommend today is the one I watched during my last few days in college. Because of graduation, I can't find time to write about my feelings.

      The film is called "Ordinary Woman" - A Fantastic Women . I don't want to be too entangled in the name. Anyway, this translation method is familiar to everyone. If someone explains too much here, the film review will be meaningless.

      It was first learned when its script won a...

      Women are better

      The first half of watching ordinary women makes my heart hurt. Many people who watch LGBT movies will say that if you change the character to heterosexual, no one will like it. Why should you change it? Emotions happen because you are you and I am me. It can't be like Carol's look back. The tenacity of women is the jokes of life over and over again, and still walks silently and staggeringly with a fearful heart. Also as a woman I may never be able to. Calmness and arrogance will always...

      The power of ordinary women

      Compared with watching the cremation of the remains in "Family Suffering", this time, the emotions are more restrained, and it is more compassion and awe for this transgender person who has been discriminated against. It seems that the director did not deliberately portray the emotional bond between the two. He has the forbearance and persistence of a man, so that I can see the dawn of human nature in a series of worldly experiences. When her beloved dies, she has no chance to respite and...

      6/10. Before the end, there is a scene where Malena puts a mirror on the sofa where her sexual organs are. She looks resolute and calm in the mirror. This mirror corresponds to the prosecutor's humiliating physical examination. The more the audience holds the curiosity The mentality wants to explore the naked body of the transgender person, the more the director turns the camera away with respect. Malena has endured all kinds of unreasonable discrimination and threats, and portrayed Malena's...

      A sentimental film that can be considered a Spanish film in production. The plot is simple, a young transgender woman (played by a real transgender) loses her elderly lover and falls into discrimination and suspicion from the other's family. And feel the aftertaste of love in loneliness. There are several fantasy shots: the body leaning in the wind, the self dressed and dancing, the protagonist who frequently throws his fists maintains a defensive posture against the world. Of course, the...

    Evaluation action

    "A Fasntastic Woman" continues the theme of " Gloria " and continues to explore the spirit and life of a woman. It's quite finished, Bastian Lelio is skilled, and doesn't have any sympathy or over-explaining about transgender people, but treats them as normal people, without tinted glasses, let alone biased. The film stands out among a bunch of transgender films, with a quality that stands out from the crowd, on every level, with an...
