Everyone is escaping this world in a different way

There are many forms of escape, such as death, but not everyone has the courage to choose such a thorough path, so there will be countless different escape modes.

Julieta has four different forms of escape that manifest themselves in different people.

The first is Julieta's father, most obviously, from the very beginning, in a way of betrayal, as a husband, he betrayed his wife, as a father he betrayed his daughter, who dares to say that this is not a kind of escape, I I thought that escaping was not only an escape, but also a rebellion against the people around me and against the world.

Later, Julieta's husband died in the sea after having an affair with a friend. This is what we originally called escape. Of course, this is passive. Sometimes life is helpless. God will help you escape from this damn life. .

Julieta's daughter, perhaps the person who best fits our definition of escape, escapes the world and then disappears, but here I don't want to think too much about Julieta's daughter, her disappearance may be a lack of faith, and finally found Faith and eager to get rid of the original life, to be human again, or something else I don't know. However, the protagonist Julieta is the person who I think fits the theme of escape the most. What she escapes is actually herself. The betrayal of her father makes her dependent on her husband, and the death of her husband makes her dependent on her daughter. Until the disappearance of her daughter, she seems to have lost the whole world.

She never reconciled with herself from beginning to end, she always relies on others to live and escape from herself

    I agree and admire Almodóvar's trend of simplifying the story, but the story of this film is too weak. To some extent, it is supported by the sets, costumes and colors, and the places that can highlight the delicate emotions are those three. Elemental snatching is a bit annoying...

    Almodovar's way of telling the story this time is much more straightforward, and it is also much less mediocre. The performance is rigid and rigid and uncomfortable to watch. It's better to say some things, even if you quarrel, but you can only choose to stay away when you are bored in your heart.
