Girl on the train
The film is adapted from the book of the same name, "The Girl on the Train" by Paula Hawkins
When she first read the name of the movie, she defined it as a girl under the big screen. The train passed the camera. A woman with a familiar face. The train passed through a residential area. Outside the window was a single-family house, which reminded her of a man. : My husband once said that my imagination is too rich and too rich to be able to hold on to it. Rachel was full of curiosity about the life of the residents around the railroad tracks. It was a life she had never experienced before. She was full of obsession and yearning. She was even fascinated by the female residents of 50 Baker Street, but she was no longer the girl she used to be. Childbirth, alcoholism, and finally divorced her husband, watching him have a new family, gave birth to lovely children, all these are the lives of others she spied on through the window of the train. Including her house, everything she carefully selected in the house, she couldn't help but picked up the wine in her bag and took a sip. From then on, the film began to show the woman's drunkenness and abnormality.
Screen switching, Megan, another woman’s narrative, a rebellious girl, a lover, a waitress, a gallery supervisor, a babysitter, and even a prostitute, moving to Azley’s life is regular and boring. Megan is full of anxiety for children. This place is simply a baby factory, but the husband's love for her is manifested in the desperate desire for a complete family. The woman went to the psychiatrist and gradually revealed her heart.
Today, the picture shows a face full of motherhood, Anna, that is the face of the hostess bathing the baby, serene, happy, imagining the time spent in the family, the woman in the last clip appeared and quit her job as a babysitter. The host came home, surprised and persevering.
The film presents us a single woman who has lost her soul, a couple in love and a happy family. The three different states of marriage seem to be irrelevant, but what kind of plot is to be told?
The train came slowly again. The woman on the car's puffy eye bags, slightly drowsy face, trembling hands, put down lipstick, looked through the car window, looking for a familiar window sill, the woman on the window sill hugged the psychologist, wept, and kissed deeply. , This woman is Megan, is it a rebellious girl, a nanny, or just a cheating woman? As the picture stretches, the plot gradually becomes clearer.
A year ago, Rachel failed in IVF attempts with her husband many times, but unexpectedly discovered that her husband Tom had an affair. The object was Anna, a real estate agent in the 21st century. Her husband abandoned her and formed a new family with Anna. As a frustrated woman, Rachel lived in a friend's house, was taken care of by him, took compensation, and drank all day long. In order to spy on her husband's new family, she commuted to New York by train every day until she discovered that Megan and Scot, the loving couple, are so much like they used to be. These couples are becoming more and more important to Rachel, like life-saving straws.
When Rachel witnessed Magen’s betrayal on the train, this betrayal was like her husband was cheating on her back. That scene aroused the purest anger of the woman, even fantasizing about breaking into Magen’s house and grabbing her golden hair. , Smashed his head on the floor. In such an angry fantasy, the woman got off the train, filled with vodka in the water glass, and in the middle of the square, street performers beat aggressive drums, continuing to recall the email exchanges between husband and lover, and the unbearable content became more aroused. The anger in the heart. Megan, as the fuse of anger, leads to the source of the murder. At this time, the plot has just begun.
Megan's disappearance and Rachel's memory gap made the entire incident a huge puzzle. Rachel was afraid and suspected that he had hurt Megan, and took the initiative to find Megan's husband and the sheriff to provide information about Megan's derailed psychologist. At this time, the film begins to interpret the character of Megan in detail. Megan went to his elder brother in his early years, and then left home and gave birth to his first baby with his brother’s friend Mark. Unfortunately, Megan drowned the baby in the bath, and then Mark abandoned her. To go, it caused a great blow to Megan's psychology, as well as her shadow of the baby and fear of pregnancy. Her husband has a strong desire for possessiveness, control, and jealousy. The psychologist became Megan's support. She confided all her fears to him and developed strange feelings.
The presentation of the story in the film is really fascinating. For all third parties, the psychologist should have accepted Magen and left her husband with Magen. However, the development of the story seems to have deviated again, and the doctor has taken hold of the original. Some professional ethics, who took Megan away?
The police heard that Megan was dead. Rachel increasingly suspected that she had hurt Megan. She tried her best to recall her own experience that night, but she always experienced a fault. Another shot pointed to Anna and her husband. Anna suspected that her husband and Rachel were still in a relationship. Trying to search for the computer's unlock code, but accidentally found Magen's mobile phone. It was only when Anna realized that her husband had cheated on Magen when Megan was her own babysitter.
At this time, Rachel embarked on a train and wanted to revisit her old place to find her memories. She ran into Martha, the wife of her husband’s former boss. For a year, Rachel believed that her alcoholism and mischief caused her husband to lose his job. The reason is that he finally separated from her husband. Bearing the fear and guilt of suspected murder, at least for this matter, Rachel wanted to redeem, so she stepped forward to apologize to Martha, but the other party said that Rachel was only drunk and asleep that day and did nothing wrong. Her husband lost his job. It is because of his own romantic flow that he can't control his lower body. Every time Rachel was drunk, she couldn't remember what happened that night, and her husband twisted all the facts and imposed all unnecessary charges on her, causing her to suffer psychological torture. It turns out that Rachel is just a poor woman who has always endured her husband's mental oppression. The real horror is the man who controls the gas lamp, and the husband Tom who gets along with her day and night.
The true self in Rachel finally awakened at this moment. Recalling the day of the crash, Magen got into the car of his ex-husband Tom. Since then, it has not appeared in the sight of everyone. At this point, the context of the story is already clear. A man, three women, the relationship between them is entangled. I think in addition to labeling the movie with plot and suspense, social emotions are also one of the movie's best sellers.
People lose the ability to think independently, cannot judge right from wrong, suffer emotional abuse, endure mental torture, and become mentally ill. The manipulator above the coal lantern has a strong desire to control, distorts facts, and has no moral integrity in order to achieve the goal. Hidden under the curtain, it is unnoticeable, just like all the modest gentlemen with twisted hearts in society, they are upright on the surface. The film finally ends with a dramatic vent of the woman's anger, exaggerated and slightly bloody, recalling the whole film, the plot is meticulous, where the eyes go, where the picture goes, fascinating, it is worth thinking about.
