"Scale" is actually divided into physical scale and psychological scale. The former is related to the parts that directly cause physiological reactions, such as physical nudity, violence, and profanity, while the latter is more related to the subversion of the three views. For fans who are accustomed to large-scale American dramas, this special theme of "Calling a Girlfriend" has a glamorous part, but it is not too much. More importantly, it presents a deep excavation of the cold psychological landscape.
To put it simply and rudely, this is a story about a woman who supports dating. However, unlike those works that use this theme to express social care or search for marginal occupations, "Calling a Girlfriend" has more perspectives on the heroine Christine. personality. This girl is a peculiar existence, suspended in this world. She lives in this space, but she has a downward perspective on all people and things. Sex has become her microscope. Through this secret profession, she analyzes men, women, love, friendship, family, and the ambiguity and subtlety of all human relationships.
Christine is a girl in law school, juggling heavy studies and an intern job at a large law firm. From a mundane point of view, she belongs to the kind of young people with great prospects who are about to enter the mainstream society and become a Busy, decent, and bored worker bees, living a life of self-righteousness and unfinished mood swings. However, her life was accidentally changed by a word from a best friend, who worked part-time in a private agency that provided escort services for the rich, and she introduced Christine into the industry. But what's interesting is that the role of girlfriends has become a transition and contrast, because of her out-of-control and self-destructive tendencies in her character, she was quickly thrown out of that circle, while Christine became like a duck to water. After she became familiar with the field, she kicked out the middleman and began to deal with different men on her own.
When the plot gets to this point, everything starts to get interesting. Those men are almost perfect samples of the backbone of this society, only this time, people can see the other side of them that is inspired by sex and usually hidden. Those lawyers and businessmen are all decent gentlemen. Some of Christine's needs are to relieve loneliness, and some are emotional projections. In short, they are all mixed with physical desires, and they also regard girls as emotional entrances and trees to express their feelings. Hole.
At first, it was those men who were admiring the girl, but later, in fact, the perspective has quietly changed, and those men who are calling for wind and rain in the daytime have become objects in the girl's hands without knowing it. Among them, there are men who have lost their wives and are at odds with their children, and Asian hotel owners who regard this illusory emotion as a real emotion. Their physical attraction to Christine has turned into an emotional attachment. The high-priced escort she provided was, in fact, only a part of sex, but more of a piece of the emotional puzzle that was missing in their usual life. The gravitational force of the flesh and the comfort of the emotions are intertwined, and the men who were originally penetrating everything were caught in the net. Among them, there is one detail that is really sad. One of the men's wife died and was estranged from her family, and suddenly died of illness. His lawyer told Kristin that the other party had amended his will not long ago, leaving her with $500,000. During his lifetime, he never confided to her. Because of her identity exposure and threats from her family, she did not get the money. But this is enough to make people lament some kind of unspeakable emotion. In the last moments of a man's life, is this woman's presence a stain or a ray of light?
This kind of moral torture runs through this drama from beginning to end. The heroine does not exclude or fanatical treatment of this special profession, just like other people treat any ordinary job, dedicated, devoted, and withdrawn. She is the same for her several identities, whether it is an intern, a student, Or as a friend or daughter in life. She has an air of being alienated from the world. She's acting out intimacy in that particular job, but in reality, she doesn't have any real intimacy. This has become a subtle irony, a cruel mirror image. Only in an illusory performance situation can she become intimate with others, and when she returns to reality, she will only return to a cold and protective color.
The temperament of alienation and indifference is the special tone of this show. What's even more ironic is that this girl's only enthusiasm, to some extent, helped to ruin herself. She discovers a scandal in the law firm and thinks her justice can turn things around, but finally discovers her naivety.
If we say that the first half of the plot is about Christine's easy climb, the second half is about the inevitable fall. Ambition made her, and ambition destroyed her. In the end, watching her become self-sacrificing always gave rise to something indescribable. The actress Lily Keough, who plays the heroine, is the granddaughter of Elvis Presley. Her delicate face and slack body language make the girl floating in this indifferent world extremely real. The girl thought she had grabbed the throat of fate, but she was still ruthlessly thrown off by centrifugal force. The same is true for many people.
