It's not a feminist movie, but it's a women's movie

Recommended by a friend, I have to say I am a little disappointed after the end, compared to Kate's heroic acceptance speech at Oscar: "Women movies not only can sell, but earn money." This movie seems to be a little far from feminism.
But there is no doubt that it is a female film, and WA also used its rambles attached to the heroine to discuss with a vote of audience the definition of women's success and its social norms.
It is extremely sad that this is a stupid and pathetic woman. There's no way I can't judge otherwise. She's good needless to say, but at the same time she abuses it so easily and ends up destroying everything she has. She was firmly imprisoned by her own poor pride, and she put the shackles on others without thinking. Even in the end, even her son didn't want to see her anymore. Her stupidity and selfishness caused everyone's misfortune. At this time, I began to reflect on whether I had done something similar and ended my own happiness with my own hands. There are some things I can't see results, but I hope I don't.

Unlike "Growing Up Education", Jenny finally recognized the reality and bravely walked out, choosing a path that could preserve her dignity and pride even though it was difficult. I was ignorant before, but then I understand, sometimes, dignity is everything, when everything else seems so fragile and fleeting, This is the last thing you can lose, and the precious thing you can have to hold your back, and the easiest way to get you avoid the hurt from others.

Finally, to borrow Bonnie Berber's comment: What do girls read for? Maybe to make us dignified and stronger. Yes, independence and power may lead to tragedy, but we still have a choice, at least, to bear the tragedy alone. Also: Have the confidence to say no to temptation.

Finally, we can say: Is the Chinese translation of the title going to go against the sky? "The Happy Life of Poor Mouth Zhang Moli", which god came up with the name of such a diaosi. . .

Blue Jasmine quotes

  • Jasmine: But that's all history boys, I met someone, I'm a new person.

  • [last lines]

    Jasmine: [talking to herself] It's fraught with peril. They gossip, you know, they talk. I saw Danny. Yes, did I tell you? He's getting married. A weekend in Palm Beach means I can wear... what could I wear? I can wear the Dior dress I bought in Paris. Yes, my black dress. Well, Hal always used to surprise me with jewelry. Extravagant pieces. I think he used to buy them at auction. It's so obvious what you're doing. You think I don't know. French au pair.

    [Blue Moon begins playing]

    Jasmine: This was playing on the Vineyard. Blue Moon. I used to know the words. I knew the words. Now they're all a jumble.
