      Wild Horses - The Paradoxical Girl Revolution

      The Bayesian test, which is difficult to achieve in many films, projects gender inequality in mainstream cinema today. The wild horses seen today are not only on the A list, but also reflect themes that are closely related to the status of women. The background of the film is Turkey, which is a Muslim country. Sexism in Muslim countries is particularly serious, but the situation in Turkey, which has been secularized after the Kemal Revolution, is special. That’s why this film has a plot of...

      When I mentioned the Mustang, my first reaction was Ford. . .

      like!
      Let me talk about two details:
      the first tear appeared when the aunt who usually taught girls to cook, unexpectedly and bravely smashed the antenna with a stone in order to prevent them from being discovered by uncles and other men on TV. Regardless of age or concept, these women are still a community. (Maybe with the exception of the ultra-conservative Gaomi aunt. Another interesting detail is that grandma did not wear a headscarf when she went out, but she hurriedly put it on...

      Mustang

      I had an appointment to watch Mustang in the movie channel last night. At first, I really didn’t want to watch it, because the dubbing made me too dramatic, but after I got used to it, it was okay. The film mainly tells about the events that happened in northern Turkey. In a small village, the five sisters made unremitting efforts to get rid of their unbearable fate and pursue their freedom. It turns out that in many countries, women's status and freedom are still limited. They sigh that...

      In the name of "love", become an accomplice of "evil"

      In a small village in northern Turkey, five sisters are seen as a local indiscretion scandal after a fight with a boy. Since then, they have been placed under house arrest, waiting to be married. Judging from the introduction, this seems to be a film from a third world country full of accusations and tears, and the central idea basically does not depend on acting. Adolescence suffering from sexual repression, the shadow of patriarchy, the imprisonment of human nature by backward etiquette...

      Freedom - sometimes near, sometimes far, freedom - when you have it, you don't realize it's lost until you know when the imprisoned girls can find the embrace of freedom like wild...

      Five golden flowers bloom brilliantly, and the heart is narrow to the field. Occasionally, I am unruly and provoke criticism. The angel with broken wings was imprisoned in the cage, and Gu Lian’s figure was worried; forcibly entering the family was not my intention, and I also persuaded the emperor to re-emerge. Youth forgets a few worries, and a thousand glasses of wine are gone in the future; no one understands the silk between the eyebrows, only draws a sword and travels...

      Watching it in the cinema, it felt a little bit time-travel, and the final escape was expected. Five girls, one after another were married, the room became a prison, and there was no...

      There are some depressing and ordinary stories, strange remote towns in Turkey, like the Islamic society in our prejudice, brutal control and oppression of women, and even trampling on their freedom, but they are all too simple, and in the end they only end in escape. Not really. Religion was originally a weapon against monarchy and dictatorship, but later it became an insurmountable shackle. But the story gives the feeling that some are too absurd, more like a fable, and not relevant...

    Evaluation action

    "Mustang" shattered all the civilized imagination triggered by the movie, because it seems not difficult to see that in the big family where the five sisters grew up, there are also the shadows and experiences of female directors themselves. The climax paragraph design of "Mustang" is very interesting. The rooms and houses that serve as cages have become fortifications against intrusions. They were locked in a black room, it was...
