Lost in the dark night again and again
"I've been living in a quagmire for so long, I forgot how to struggle.
You just appeared out of nowhere, maybe that's love? Come
close to me, warm me, melt me, and the
downpour will also make this filth-covered heavy shell layer upon layer. Peeling off.
Everyone spurns me, despise me,
what am I worth?!
I hate this world!
All men who look down on me, all who think I'm damned, should go to hell,
I want...

A fascinating movie that really touches on human nature, and the instinct of survival. The subjective perception of monstrosity is often the result of survival. Like most monsters, Aileen acted upon her instinct to survive for the sake of love, which ultimately became her downfall . Incredible performance by Charlize Theron, a role which eventually landed her an Oscar, not only is she able to transform herself physically, her soul transformed with her as well. The bulging eyes of Aileen is not...

I downloaded a movie a long time ago and watched it only two days ago. When I watch it, I don't know the genre or the plot. Affected by the Chinese translation, I thought it was a fashion film about strong women in the workplace. After watching it, I was surprised. The life of the heroine is so unbearable and even disgusting, but it is understandable.
Although it was such a tragic childhood, there is a desire to become a star that everyone is watching. Maybe it's the price of unrealistic...

If she hadn't met her, her life might not have been humbled to the surface and grown happy flowers
Maybe her life wouldn't be so bad if she hadn't met Hill. The most terrifying hope in the world is the hope before despair, which makes you hallucinate for a second, but ruthlessly tramples your fantasy into dust. The whole drama is not only the tragedy of society, but also the tragedy of love. For her, the only good thing. I don't want to dig too much into the pit of social tragedy, I just want to pay attention to the main line of love. Thank you director for making her death less grievous and...

In 100 minutes, we witnessed the whole process of a woman who was abandoned and trampled on by society and became extreme and crazy in order to seize the little love that never appeared in her life. But the audience didn't hate Lin, but felt that society had turned her into a monster, even though it was just a Ferris wheel that she never conquered, which is precisely what female directors are brilliant at in this type of subject...

Horton: You don't have to. You're just having a hard time.
Aileen: No! I can't let you live!
Horton: Oh God... my wife... my wife... my daughter's having a baby.
Aileen: SHUT THE FUCK UP! Oh God... oh God I'm sorry...
[She shoots him]
Aileen: Everybody just thinks I'm this bad shitty fucking person, and all I'm fucking tryin' to do is survive, you know?
Thomas: I know. I know what you do for a living. It doesn't bother me. I know you didn't dial it up on a goddamn telephone. That's where you landed. That's what you had to do. What you're feeling right now is just guilt, over something you had absolutely no control over. You know how many of us came back from the war? And almost killed ourselves because we felt exactly the same thing you do, right now.
Aileen: Yeah?
Thomas: Yeah. And they'll never get it. They'll never get it now, they never got it then, and they sure as hell won't get fucking circumstance!
Aileen: Fuck, man, circumstance, that's exactly it, that's exactly it. You know I feel like I never even had a fucking choice.
Thomas: You never did. But you gotta live. You gotta live.
Aileen: [points to the bartender] You owe me change!
[pause]
Aileen: Fuck it. I'm outta here!
Selby: Oh, are you sure-
[touches Lee's shoulder]
Aileen: [rises from chair and pushes Selby off] GET YOUR FUCKIN' HANDS OFF ME, YOU DUMB DYKE! I'm not gonna fuck you for a fucking beer, alright? So, stop wasting your fuckin' time!
