Generally 2.5

The plot is relatively bland, and how abortion constitutes the contradiction of the film, but the resolution process does not reflect too much waves, as if it is logical. There were some surprises in the Q&A session. The whole plot revolves around the journey of abortion, and does not give an in-depth portrayal of the heroine's living environment and social relations. The appearance of the cousin is also a bit abrupt. Most of the audience can only understand the heroine's situation by guessing.

The heroine has fewer lines, less expressive expressions, less attitude and mood, and the image is not as vivid as the second female lead. And her attitude towards others is not pleasing (when my cousin was trying to solve the ticket, she played with her mobile phone as if it had nothing to do with her, and even told her to get out of the way and I was drunk). The image of the cousin is relatively three-dimensional, and the resolution of many contradictions is driven by her activities and decisions, which reduces the presence of the heroine. The biggest problem is the male and female images that the film potentially instills. The male characters who appear in the film are all negative, or appear as controllers, such as male classmates, female protagonist's father, supermarket manager, chat-up brother, subway perverts, security personnel, subway management personnel, etc. The female characters, however, are invariably gentle, sympathetic, or appear as servants and talkers. I don't know what the director's intention is for this arrangement.

The camera lens is ok, but the field of vision is narrow, and the description of the environment is less, and always loves the big face of the heroine.

    The sense of oppression created by a large number of close-ups and close-ups is as ubiquitous as an invisible wall. This is precisely the predicament women face: suddenly one day they have to face the world, but they find themselves completely powerless to deal with it. Although the overall mood is calm, but the "never, rarely, sometimes, always" is still hit when it appears, the title should never be mispronounced again.

    This is the first time I watch a movie that conveys the physical pain of a girl in such a subtle way. Although there is no specific scene, my hands are shaking as I watch it. The males in the film are basically negative images, but the doctors and nurses are really gentle and humane. . The pain of moving boxes in the subway really resonates too much... These old subway stations always have no barrier-free elevators, and the escalators up are always closed!
