A woman's play

Devyn 2022-01-22 08:04:51

The film arranges the different destinies of 8 women living in the same building. The tragedy of similarities and minor differences was just as scarred as the old building where they lived. The perpetrators are all men.

When watching Christona’s alcoholic husband use two innocent children as weights and threaten to marry him, he prayed silently in his heart, screenwriter, is it okay? We must keep those two children! However, the tragic scene still happened unstoppably. Women, must keep their bottom line, once a man crosses that bottom line, no matter what, he must give up.

Only when there is a gap, the sun can shine in. Even though it is a story of a woman of color, is it different from what we encounter around us? The rainbow exists in every woman's heart. After the hard years, there will be hope in life!

    A sad and deliberate film. It turned out that I always liked to use movies to observe life. Later, I gradually realized that movies are movies. Life is more difficult than movies, and life is happier than movies.

For Colored Girls quotes

  • Juanita: Frank, open the door! I know you're in there! You got a woman in there? Fine, I am sick of your mess! Without any assistance or guidance from you, I have loved you assiduously for 8 months, 2 weeks, and a day. I been stood up 4 times, left 7 packages on your doorstep, 40 poems, 2 plants, 3 handmade notecards, and I had to leave town to send them. You call at 3 am in the morning on weekdays... charming, charming! But you have been of NO assistance! I want you to know what this has been an experiment... to see how selfish I could be. To see if I could really carry on to snare a possible lover. To see if I was capable of debasing myself for the love of another. To see if I could stand not being wanted when I want to be wanted and I can not, so without any further guidance or assistance from you, I am ending this affair!
