I like the solgan on the poster: LET THEM TAlK

(Let them talk! I am myself, you love Say what you want, don't mind me)

but I don't like the English title "Dirty Girl" very much, so I put negative labels on the characters

? The female consciousness that the film wants to convey is somewhat contradictory.



Although it is a 2010 film, the background is set in the 1980s, which is quite meaningful for the times.

I like the sexual liberation in Dirty Girl and the elements of resisting patriarchy. It is

a bit like "Thelma" in 1991. & Louise", both also have road elements in them, the

road itself is already a symbol of the pursuit of freedom, breaking free from bondage,

especially I really love Danielle and Clarke driving on the road and singing their favorite songs ↓
Lovergirl performed by Clarke and Danielle(Teena Marie)

↑This song is really good!

The soundtrack of the whole movie is full of songs from the 80s,

so I went to the western tapes of the 80s at home to find out if there were any, and the result was I can't find a song = =

Either the cassette is missing, or the tape playing machine is faulty...

I hardly listen to old songs, but I think the western pop songs of the 1980s are so good!

Maybe it's a bridge to match the movie Duan, make the music also cute and moving?

Whatever!



Then, the sexuality of the protagonist Clarke has

been evaluated by a psychiatrist. He is 65% gay and 35% heterosexual.

Dr. Kinsey said that everyone will like the same sex and the opposite sex, it is just a matter of the ratio

(numerical value ). 0-6, 0 is 100% heterosexual, 6 is 100% homosexual)

Less than 10% of the people in the world are fully heterosexual or homosexual

For Dr. Kinsey's statement, I completely agree, this is what human beings are truly Look!

Heterosexual hegemony has been around for too long, it's time to show everyone what everyone really looks like

(well, I'll talk to you later on gender politics)

Our protagonist Danielle is also tolerant of Clarke's sexuality.

Even the love and friendship are very close, helping Clarke to fulfill his wish with his own money↓
Your Love performed by The Outfield (acoustic version)

This section is really sensual (stripper), so moving!

I get goosebumps all over, that kind of touching you can Have you experienced it?

A Clarke, who was imprisoned in his father's patriarchal fortress since childhood,

tried for the first time what he really longed for, and also his "true self",

and it was only after Danielle silently paid for him that he could experience it. The precious (long live friendship!)

I almost cried when I saw it!



Later, Clarke's father found them both, and wanted to forcibly bring back

the fight in the car and the fight between Clarke and his father, which also looked good to me. Heartache!!!!!!!!!

Clarke couldn't fight his father and was sent to military school



Finally, Danielle sang on the school stage.

Originally, this song was to sing a two-part series with Clarke, but he was no longer there, so he had to sing alone.

Clarke suddenly appeared and sang loudly for the choked Danielle

. The tears gushed a lot!!!

At the end of the movie, Danielle's biological father didn't accept her, and after tossing all the way back to the original point

, her appearance on the way Changes (when I went to see my biological father and when I sang on stage, I deliberately dressed as the girl next door), which

shows that after all, I still can't resist the patriarchal system, the social framework, and the heroine does not continue to fight. It

is a sad ending. It is similar to "Thelma & Louise" who finally drove to the bottom of the valley to commit suicide,

but the latter is more heroic and unyielding. The

only fortunate thing is that Clarke was rescued by his mother from the army and returned to his original school

The mother also divorced his father? The film did not explain, only hinted

that the mother is willing to tolerate everything Clarke, and get rid of the old husband, which is a little comfort for this sad ending.



Finally, I have to mention the heroine - Juno Temple
super Love her!!!!!!!!!!!! Well I admit she is really super pretty!!!!!!!!!!!

Delicate features, naturally curly brunette like to dye it blond and then Hot straight (actually I think gold is more suitable for her)

a very individual British young actor, speaking with a light British accent (maybe in the United States for a long time, the British accent is not very strong?) with a unique accent

At present, I am acting in many independent producers. Most of them are quite to my taste.

She is very brave to perform. There are several movies that have been exposed to the point.

I have always admired such actors (and many actors too). If you need it, you can do what you want. There is no limit.

Many actors will ask for no sex scenes, no show, or what kind of subject matter they don't play...

Honestly, I don't like this kind of actor! All I can say is Every actor has a different definition and positioning of himself as an actor.

In addition, those very high-sounding words, such as "sacrifice for art", I don't like to hear it either,

I don't think it's sacrifice, I think it's performance, no what sacrifice is not sacrifice
