In her speech, she summed up the unfair treatment she suffered as a child:
"When I was eight years old, people said I was overbearing because I wanted to be a director of a stage play; At the age of fourteen, the media began to emphasize some of my gender characteristics. When I was fifteen, my female friend began to quit the sports team for fear of becoming stronger. When I was eighteen, my male friend couldn't express his feelings. From then on, I decided to be a feminist. "
it seems to be destiny takes a hand.
When Emma was 5 years old, her parents divorced, and Emma and her brother followed her father. She saw with her own eyes how her mother lived independently.
Because she became famous too early, she was scrutinized by the media and the public at an early age.
In the 211 documentary "Women in the Harry Potter Story", she admitted her distress:
"I think I will look under the microscope better than boys, just because I am a girl, no matter what I eat, what I wear or where I go to school. I think the public is always more harsh on women in various senses. We all know that feeling, the feeling of being examined. "
her childhood experience laid the foundation of her life.
to tell the truth, all her roles are feminists.
In p>21, Emma first played Hermione in the movie Harry Potter.
smart, hardworking, humble but not afraid of power.
J.K. Rowling, the author of p>131, said of Hermione:
"As a girl, others will always ask you to sacrifice, but Hermione will never give in to intelligence. She won't compromise and play dumb. She never hides her abilities to make Ron feel good. "
a typical feminist image.
In p>27, Emma starred in a TV movie "Harry Potter" between filming.
She played the orphan Pauline. She changed from a stage actress to a movie actress. When the work was about to be shown, she cried in bed:
"Tomorrow night, my face will be enlarged to the size of a house, and everyone wants to find me."
This is what Emma calls "strict scrutiny".
Ballet Shoes tells the story of three girls chasing their dreams. Because the structure is like the novel "Ballet Shoes", some netizens call it "the ballet version of Little Women".
And Little Women is a novel that emphasizes feminist consciousness.
In p>211, after Little Women finished filming, Emma starred in Harry Potter.
She plays Monroe's assistant and falls in love with freckles.
"Freckle" refers to the actor Eddie Redmain.
Later, Freckle fell in love with Monroe and cheated on her, and Emma left with a smile without any resentment.
There are not many role-plays, but her beauty, independence and perseverance are impressive.
This film is also labeled as "feminism".
In p>212, I starred in My Week with Monroe.
There are two male friends in the film. Their similarity is "don't say". The first friend was injured when he was a child, so he was introverted and shy, and was called "wallflower boy".
The second friend was gay, but he didn't say it was because the environment was homophobic.
These two characters are just as Emma said in her speech: At the age of eighteen, my male friend could not fully express his feelings.
why can't I express myself?
Because society requires men to be strong in appearance and never ignore their hearts.
31 seems not to talk about women's rights, but touches on the essence of women's rights-equal rights.
Even men have fragile rights, and homosexuality should be respected.
In p>213, Emma starred in The Wallflower Boys.
It's a story about a group of young people stealing from Hollywood stars' homes, becoming addicted to glitz and finally being caught.
It satirizes the common girls who worship money in society.
In order to get a light sentence from the court, Emma Watson played the role of trying to be a good person. She said:
"This incident taught me a lesson. I want to be a noble person. I want to lead a large charity organization. I even want to lead a country. "
The reporter went to his house and asked her if she was doing something good. She said:
"Yes, we have done a lot of good things through the church. Now my sister has gone to build a house with the church. They go to Africa every year, dig wells and build schools for children. "
But at the end of the movie, she said to the camera,
"For more information, please visit my personal website."
Emma used this role to satirize ignorant women who are mindless, independent and self-centered.
She said:
"Everything about this role makes me strongly disgusted-she is superficial, materialistic, vain and has no sense of right and wrong. I found it interesting and gave me a new perspective to look at what my career can do. "
further back.
In p>214, Emma played an infertile woman. She refused to go aboard to avoid the end of the world, because she felt that it was worthless to be infertile.
The topic of fertility is a cliche of women's rights.
from p>131215, Emma sneaked into the former Nazi base in Chile to save her boyfriend, and finally escaped.
this is about human rights.
In the same year, "Jewellery" was about a girl who was sexually assaulted by her father, and it was also feminist.
By this year's Noah's Ark, the protagonist Belle is still a feminist.
She is smart, independent and loves reading. People call her a "strange girl", but she doesn't care at all.
Emma not only plays Belle, but also "pulls her into reality" to explain her ideas.
Recently, there was a comment on the Internet that Belle's animal fetish was Stockholm syndrome.
It means that because the beast imprisoned Belle, Belle had feelings for him. This kind of psychology is also called hostage complex, just like the dependence of hostages on robbers.
Emma disagrees:
"I read a book about Stockholm syndrome, which means that the prisoner lost his personality and fell in love with her captor, but Belle took the initiative to debauchery.
Animals quarrel and put forward their own opinions. She doesn't have the characteristics of Stockholm syndrome because she retains her independence. "
constantly plays the role of women's rights, and explains his ideas through the role.
Therefore, Emma will choose films because of her feminist image, which has shaped her in reality.
this method is very successful.
if you search for "feminist actress" in Baidu, you will be "blocked" by emma watson.
Her contribution to women's rights can't be summarized by "putting on a show".
In fact, more people know emma watson than Beauvoir (French writer and feminist).
She really played a propaganda role in feminism.
There is such a video in "bilibili who fell in love after 9s"-"emma watson talks to Malala".
Malala is a famous feminist in Pakistan, who is famous for fighting for women's right to education.
She was shot by the Taliban government in 212 and won the Nobel Peace Prize in 214, but the name is still unfamiliar to people who don't care about women's rights and politics.
But in bilibili, which is dominated by the secondary culture, there are actually many praises for Malala.
"Malala is amazing, what an energetic person."
"They are both my goddesses."
When someone satirizes Malala's appearance, someone stands up and stands up for justice:
"Don't compare the looks of two people, okay? Does it make sense? "
To be honest, if it weren't for emma watson, I wouldn't even know who Malala was.
In Emma's Baidu Post Bar, her fans recorded her words and encouraged everyone to be confident and work hard.
Another high school student talked about The Wallflower Boy.
Emma went to Mavila, Africa to visit her newly liberated child bride. Fans posted her photos, praised her beauty and said that they would learn from her.
If the post is full of children, I believe that when they grow up, our country can be more tolerant of homosexuality and better understand equality, freedom and fraternity.
These are all promoted by emma watson through her films, public images and practical actions.
I can't help but think of my own feminist enlightenment-not Beauvoir, but the cartoon Mulan.
Many people may not read Beauvoir's works all their lives, but such entertainment movies will still tell them that you can live in the way you like.
I think such women's rights are also great.
