Such a ＂goddess＂ is the most embarrassing!
Special feature of 1905 film network "Women also have thoughts, souls and ambitions. I have long been tired of everyone telling me that love is the only thing women should pursue."
As early as more than 100 years ago, Joe, played by Saoirse Ronan, made such a cry in the movie. This independence and persistence also inspired countless girls to break free and bravely pursue their hearts.
For women, work and career are not only the source of economic income, but also allow them to gain equality, respect, confidence and confidence while demonstrating their self-worth.
On the occasion of International Women’s Day, let Xiao Dianjun pay tribute to female workers from all walks of life through movies. "You work hard, really!"
Earn respect with dedication
During this special period, we got to know many ordinary and extraordinary female workers.
They are retrograde angels in white, fighting in the front line of anti-epidemic, bearing heavy work pressure but without complaint. They said: "The patient’s happy smile on his face when he was discharged from hospital made everything worthwhile."
The same is true of Lu Wenting, an ophthalmologist played by Pan Hong in the movie "Man to Middle Age".
At that time when medical talents were scarce, Dr. Lu was paid a meager salary of 56.5 yuan.However, she often has to face the pressure of working 24 hours a day, but she has no complaints and always puts the needs of patients first.
Under the long-term overload operation, Lu Wenting suddenly suffered from myocardial infarction and was dying. On the morning of her illness, she completed three operations in succession.
Lying on her deathbed, Lu Wenting recalled her life, and "curing the patient" became the most gratifying thing in her life:"Every time an eye is cured, it brings me great happiness. The most important part of my life belongs to you (patients)."
When she recovered and was discharged from the hospital, the door was full of her former patients, and I believe that was the happiest moment for doctors.
Nice da Silva, the hero of Nice Crazy Heart, is also a female doctor.She is a student of carl jung, a famous Swiss psychologist, and the only woman among the 158 graduates of Bahia Medical College that year.
In that era when female doctors were weak, she bravely stood up against the mainstream "inhuman" psychiatric treatments such as frontal lobectomy and electric shock, and advocated giving patients humanized care and guidance.
Nice teaches patients how to use canvases, paints and brushes, and works with dogs to treat mental patients.
Through colorful and unrestrained paintings, we can see the patients’ incomparably rich inner world and human dignity.
"All chaos, madness and trauma need to be listened to and appeased."This is not "the benevolent heart of the doctor."
Educational moviesAdapted from a true story.
Lv Huihong, played by Miriam Yeung, was originally the principal of a prestigious school. She originally planned to retire early and travel around the world with her husband. However, a news that "suburban kindergartens are on the verge of closure and students are about to drop out of school" has aroused her heart of educating people.
Simple school conditions, only five students, plus a salary of 4,500 yuan, many people question that Lu Huihong is "putting on a show" and making a name for herself. However, she resolutely refused the advertising endorsement of the tutoring institution with an annual salary of 10 million yuan, and ran wholeheartedly for the five children.
She said to the students:"The headmaster’s dream is to be a good teacher, and he can stand at the school gate and wait for you to attend classes every day."
In reality, Lv Huihong is still the principal of Yuantian Kindergarten.
Under her hard work, in just five years, the number of students has increased from the initial five to as many as sixty, which has affected the fate of countless children and families.
This also fulfilled Lu Huihong’s initial intention of education."Being a teacher is doing a very meaningful thing and affecting life with life."
In the movieChinese and female journalist Sasha is a member of the "Focus" investigation team.
Together with her colleagues, she overcame many difficulties and exposed the dark side of church members’ long-term molestation of children and collusion between local forces.
In the face of threats and inducements from officials and the church, Sasha was humble and stuck to the responsibility and bottom line of journalists: digging the truth and reporting objectively.
Regardless of occupation, the dedicated and professional women in these films make us awe.
Break prejudice with strength
In a special era, women should not only cope with work pressure in the workplace, but also always fight against discrimination and defend their hard-won right to work.
What happened to ruth bader ginsburg, the heroine of Gender-Oriented, is also a microcosm of the unequal treatment suffered by thousands of professional women in Qian Qian in the United States in the 1950s.
She graduated first in Harvard and Columbia Law School, but she couldn’t find a job as a lawyer.
The boss refused her for various reasons. "Female lawyers are too emotional." We hired a woman last year. "You are so beautiful that the wife of a male colleague will be jealous."
Although she had to put her dream of becoming a lawyer on hold, Ruth never gave up fighting for women’s rights and interests with the law.
Until the 1970s, when the social environment was mature, she began to challenge the unequal laws involving gender discrimination with one wonderful defense after another.And eventually became the first Jewish female federal supreme court justice in American history.
At the end of the film, she said hit the floor in court: "There are 178 laws concerning gender discrimination.This will be a thorn in our children’s future road. Our children are being turned away by various opportunities because of the so-called assumption of their abilities by the law …No matter how much effort it takes, we must amend these laws one by one. "
At the same time as ruth bader ginsburg, there are such a group of women in the film. Although they are superior in IQ and ability, they have to endure double discrimination because of their "black+female" status.
It takes half a mile to run to the bathroom to find a toilet for people of color; If you want to participate in training and obtain the qualification of an engineer, you must first go to court and go to court; Because of skin color and gender, promotion and salary increase have been delayed.
Faced with these tangible and intangible discrimination, they chose to fight back with courage and strength, and proved that sentence with actions."NASA hired us not because we wore skirts, but because we wore glasses."
It is these pioneers’ struggles and efforts step by step that make women in the space system no longer "computers in skirts" but have the opportunity to walk to the stage and enjoy the applause and respect they deserve.
Gender discrimination faced by Indian women is equally heavy. In the subconscious of many Indians, women are still the accessories of men, and they can get married at the age of 14 and teach their children for life.
But the father played by Aamir Hussain Khan chose a completely different path for his daughter. Despite the cynicism of the people around him, he insisted on letting his two daughters practice wrestling, and finally sent them to the podium of the international competition.
What he said to his daughter before the game made many people cry: "If you win tomorrow, it’s not your victory alone, but the victory won by thousands of girls. They are forced to be confined to housework, and the value of their lives is only to get married and have children.Tomorrow’s game is the most important game, because tomorrow you will play not only Australian players, but also all those who despise women! "
In the comment area of "Hidden People", there is a highly praised short comment that reads: "All the equality and not-so-equality we enjoy today are the result of the struggle of countless female predecessors. Never take what you have today for granted. "
This is the meaning of these films, and it is also the most touching place for this group of women.
Regain self-confidence with independence
Maybe we can’t be "heroines" who change history, but we can also gain respect and confidence through a job we love.
In the movie, Josie, the heroine played by Charlize Theron, decided to become a female miner in order to get rid of her abusive husband.
You know, at that time, the ratio of male to female employees in American coal mines was 30: 1. Female miners not only had to bear heavy physical labor, but also endured male harassment and social strange eyes.
But Josie never wanted to give up. After getting her first salary, she broke down in tears: "For the first time in my life, I can earn money by myself and support my children.For the first time in my life, I feel like I’m alive."
This is the meaning of work for Josie. She can stand up and stop swallowing her husband’s violence and give her children a better life with her own hands.
Nicole in the movie has a seemingly perfect life, but only she knows that in order to maintain her marriage, she has gradually become the "shadow" of her husband.
Forgetting her taste, dreams and pursuits, Nicole confided to the lawyer:"I have never lived for myself, just making him more and more glorious."
After waking up, Nicole chose to bid farewell to this marriage that made her lose herself. In Los Angeles, she finally realized her dream of directing and found a second life in Hollywood.
More importantly, she realized that what she really needed to get rid of was not the marriage relationship, but the self-contempt and self-limitation.
Little Women’s most touching passage is not the happy ending and the sad and tactful love, but Joe’s persistent running figure for getting closer to his dream every time.
When the publisher agreed to publish her story for the first time, when she organized her sisters to rehearse a play, when inspiration came in and she worked hard, Joe’s eyes sparkled and his face flushed with excitement became the most beautiful splendor of the film.
In today’s society, the physical obstacles faced by women in the workplace are decreasing, but the intangible prejudice still exists. Marriage and family are still important criteria for many people to measure women’s "success".
Maybe we can’t change society overnight, but at least try not to set limits on ourselves first. Every woman has the right to pursue happiness, but happiness means more than marriage and love.
Only in this way, when decades of marriage once broke down, can you calmly say, like Natalie, a professor played by Hupel,"My life has not completely failed. I have a full intellectual life, which is enough to make me happy."
Or like Aunt March, played by "Aunt Mei" in Little Women, proudly said:"I don’t need to get married, because I am a giant!"
Finally, I quote the speech delivered by the Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adiqi at the graduation ceremony of Wesleyan College in 2015, and give it to every struggling girl and woman:
"We may not be able to change the world, but we can try and work together to make tangible and real efforts. At least we worked so hard.
Never use gender as a reason to do or not do something. Never, never do or give up anything because you are a woman. "
