"It was you who acted like a princess"

"I wouldn't throw slippers at him, I would throw a soldering iron at him." "Now, remember, you didn't just dance with the prince last night, you acted like a princess. ." It's really cool here, and it's also there to throw slippers, which made me really feel that this is a feminist film. Professor Wuwu's mother is really nice, she likes it so much, and she is very open-minded. It doesn't matter because she is a flower girl. She doesn't take it as a bet like the professor, and she doesn't even know whether she loves it or not.

I also don't see the professor's love for Eliza. He just enjoys the thrill of winning a bet, or the convenience of a woman taking care of everything for him. He once relentlessly sang "Why women can't be like men", but he was not firm enough in the assurance that "I can live normally without you", he is just a tragic product of the era of machismo. And I can understand Eliza.

A slum girl who even thought she would not marry. But through hard work, he won the professor's affirmation - even if such affirmation was just the professor's unintentional act and Eliza's misunderstanding, he was just happy for the winning trend of the bet. But poor Eliza, she misunderstood, how could Eliza, who has never been in contact with love, not regard it as love?

I also don't like the kind of stories about changing classes and making people fall in love with you, and I really think that the man before really liked Eliza, he liked everything about her, much better than the professor. Let me really have the urge to get married and leave the professor alone with no regrets. Made dog straight man, he should, deserve to be single!

And the fact is that she prefers to be ordered, prefers the inexplicable professor. Hey. Even if the professor saves Eliza in the end, I can accept this ending, but unfortunately it doesn't, hey, this dog. But why not, the professor has changed even a little bit for her, the meaning is "you can throw your slippers at me". Doesn't it mean that art is subjective? So why not make yourself comfortable? It is my powerless self-comfort.

By the way, I personally think that Audrey... Hepburn's performance is very good, and it is unreasonable not to receive an award for it. Because at first I didn't even recognize the goddess, she seemed to be that rude and rude flower girl. fantastic.

The fair lady, "It's you who act like a princess". It's a pity that she, who is elegant enough to be a princess or even a princess, is still only willing to be a flower girl who picks up slippers by a professor who will never treat her equally. A living tragedy of the times. But I am willing to give four stars for Goddess Hepburn + that short feminist vent.
