May the world be consensual

[The Accused 1988]? The Chinese translation of the name is rather disgusting, it is called [Bao Jie Li Hua] at first glance, you will think it is [Bao Jie chrysanthemum] or [Destroy Pear flower]?

This is Judy Foster's first Oscar-winning work at the age of 27. The plot still touched me several times. It's about Sarah, a young girl from a commoner background, quarreled with the male ticket and went to a bar to relax. As a result, because he was too beautiful and sexy, three men gang raped in front of everyone. And instead of stopping them, the surrounding witnesses booed, clapped their hands, applauded, and encouraged them. So the climax of the trial was to send the onlookers to court, not only prosecuting them on deaf ears, but also characterizing the crime as rape.

Naturally, obstacles and obstacles were encountered several times in the process of deciding a crime.

I still want to raise a few questions here and ask myself,

1⃣️If a girl is too beautiful and too sultry, then for others to commit crimes against her, is it right that she deserves it?

2⃣️If this girl is gang-raped, then his boyfriend doesn't feel the same way and thinks that things are over. She is depressed, very unhappy, and refuses to have sex. Is she really annoying if she does not come out?

3⃣️When the girl was gang-raped under the eyes of everyone, all witnesses did not stop or stop, and even encouraged this behavior, believing that it was the girl who caught fire to her upper body, completely ignored her refusal, her body was bruised and bruised, then the onlookers are innocent ?

May the world be consensual. May all the wicked be brought to justice. Everyone will pay the price.

    The court scenes are still not good enough, and the conflicts of questions in the process are not enough. Judy's performance has an inexplicable feeling. The victim teased a man after she was drunk. At this moment, she was given the consciousness that she wanted to be hacked, but after she was hacked, she expressed her resistance and rejection. At this moment, there is a default sex between both parties. The conversion to rape. PS. How could I think that the victim has its own reasons for being assaulted? ? ? This is essentially a double standard and discrimination, and I feel sick to myself.

The Accused quotes

  • Kathryn Murphy: Ladies and Gentleman, Mr. Paulson has told you the testimony of Sarah Tobias is nothing. Sarah Tobias was raped but that is nothing. She was cut, bruised, and terrorized but that is nothing. All of it happened in front of a howling crowd and that is nothing. Well, it may be nothing to Mr. Paulson, but it is not nothing to Sarah Tobias and I don't believe it's nothing to you. Next, Mr. Paulson tried to convince you that Kenneth Joyce was the only one in that room who knew that Sarah Tobias was being raped. The only one. Now you watched Kenneth Joyce, how did he strike you? Did he seem specially sensitive? Did he seem so remarkable that you said to yourselves, "Of course. This man would notice things other people wouldn't." Do you believe that Kenneth Joyce saw something in that room that those three men didn't see. In all the time that Sarah was pinned down on that Pinball machine that other people didn't know? Kenneth Joyce confessed to you that he watched a rape and did nothing. He told you that everyone in that bar behaved badly and he was right. But no matter how immoral it may be, it is not the crime of criminal solicitation to walk away from a rape. It is not the crime of criminal solicitation to watch a rape. But it is the crime of criminal solicitation to induce, or entreat, or encourage, or persuade another person to commit a rape. Hold her down, stick it to her, make her moan. These three men did worse than nothing. They cheered and they clapped and they rooted the others on. They made sure that Sarah Tobias was raped, and raped, and raped, and raped. And tell me, was that nothing?

  • Sarah Tobias: What time is it?

    Kathryn Murphy: You just asked me that.
