the girl on the train
2017.1.2 unfolds
with the memories and stories of three women, the progress is very slow, they tell their stories ramble, rachel indulges in alcohol every day, and sits in those two The train is just to see the most ideal couple in her heart and the married life she dreams of; the observed megan looks happy, but hides a lot of things on her mind. She spends a long, long time talking with the psychiatrist. More than halfway through the movie, Rachel recovered her memory intermittently. After being repeatedly stimulated by the words of the policewoman and Anna, Rachel's memory was so confused that she was convinced that she killed Megan, and Anna gradually became suspicious of her husband. Rachel met her old friend on the train and learned that she didn't do the horrible things her ex-husband told her when she was drunk. She didn't become violent. Blame it all on the drunk unconscious Rachel. The misfortune of the three women is all due to this one man. Rachel's life trajectory is because a man has undergone a major change, and she has doubts about herself, from an ordinary woman to an alcoholic and troubled shrew. Anna is a third party who intervenes in other people's marriages. When she finds out about her husband's affair, and faces Rachel's exposure, she says it doesn't matter, it's not the first time he cheats, and she also wants to strangle Rachel when her husband rapes Rachel. Just stand there blankly. I was very nervous when I saw Rachel's last escape, my heart was beating in my throat, and when I finally stabbed the aorta in the neck and anna slowly pressed the cork down, I felt a sense of disappointment that it was finally over. On the whole, the tone of the whole movie is rather sad. The actress's acting skills are very delicate, and the way of presentation is a little messy. In some places, the people who watch it are in a fog, and it is indeed more similar to the disappearing lover. Maybe people in marriage feel more deeply about this movie.

    I can't watch it anymore, I don't know if it's a problem with the resources or the film itself. The color grading is as black as a piece of shit, and often no details can be seen in the picture, and the narrative is messy. The only bright spot after watching it for over an hour was Hayley Bennett's bare-bones nudity.

    Unexpectedly, women's rights in the United Kingdom and the United States also have works of this kind of struggle in the initial stage of feminism... This film is full of women's grievances against the patriarchal dominance of the society. In the film, the man is turned into a symbol called "scumboy" by Facebook, and the heroine is portrayed as a feminist martyr. Women can save themselves only by killing the scumbag. I don't think that antagonizing men and women is a mature idea, it's just a one-way vent.

The Girl on the Train quotes

  • Rachel: I need to remember.

  • Tom: Jesus Christ, Rachel, what the hell is wrong with you? I spent the last hour looking around for you. You scared the shit out of Anna, do you know that? She thought you were gonna... she wanted to call the police. So just... leave us alone. You can ruin your own life if you want to but you're not going to destroy ours. I'm not going to protect you any more.
