What impression does Indian film usually give to the audience?There are quite a few Indian movies and dramas with great morals and satire. I believe you have all seen them in the past - Three Idiots - Children from the Stars/The Little Star in My Heart - My Champion Daughter 《Wait, it will always give the audience a strong inspiration and inspiration, and there are many Indian movies that are like this (I will recommend some good Indian movies to everyone at the end of the article) ~ What I personally like is actually Indian movies and TV seriesThe works always combine their social values ​​for discussion and reflection, so the plots are usually very in-depth, and this time - The Lost Bride - is no exception!Let me talk first - The Lost Bride - are the reviews good?Fun and beautiful!Recommended for everyone to watch!

》The Lost Bride《The plot outline is about two couples getting married, because the husband has to pick up the bride from a distant village and get the dowry. On the train, the two brides wear the same traditional wedding dress and veil, because they need to be in publicThe occasion required covering one's head, so one of the grooms accidentally brought the wrong bride home, and thus began a journey to find his wife. The lost wife, of course, went through a process of growth and independence.

》The Lost Bride《The trick is not to show “women” in a particularly bloody or pitiful way. Even though the film is “female-centered”, its power will not be overdone, but in aThis gentle approach focuses on the female protagonists in the film, describing their methods and processes of escaping from the patriarchal hell in rural India.The audience will see the strength of the female characters in the movie. Faced with various traditional female values, they are not a weak and humble group, but in fact they will also see the deep-rooted Indian traditional culture imposed on them.traces and shadows.

》The Lost Bride《 gives the audience an unexpected journey of emotional catharsis. The plots designed in it will make the audience think about whether they agree or not, especially since a large part of the film focuses on Jaya and Bull.On the journey, Jaya's mystery and Burr's helplessness seem to have lost their reliance on the little white rabbit that accidentally wandered into the forest. The screenwriter and director skillfully depict the various patriarchal values ​​​​and indifference to women in Indian society.

Bull is a very innocent girl. We can see in her that she has been trained to be obedient and a dutiful wife. But what is also very sad is that she actually knows nothing about happiness. Interestingly, Bull's name is aIt means planting“flower”. This name alone emphasizes her innocence, kindness and beauty. During her journey as a girl, she was trapped in a train station with a group of hard-working and self-sufficient people, learning to hide her personality from her parents.Self-discovery.

The other heroine in "The Lost Bride" is Jaya, which translated means “with strength and victory aura”. In the plot, she is a cunning person, but she is not a bad person, and she isA woman with education and knowledge, so in this traditional Indian society, she longs for and pursues freedom, so in the life of Deepa's family, she brings some different concepts to other women in the family, that is, women can have their ownValue, not necessarily obedience.》The Lost Bride--The way Jaya's story line is handled is particularly interesting. She knew as a child that if she wanted to take the path she wanted, she had to stand firm, so she was mentally prepared to know that speaking up for herself was necessary.The price to be paid and the various difficulties to be faced. In this film, Jaya faces a dangerous world. Through the character of Jaya, the director reflects a woman's efforts to resist the patriarchy.

The screenwriter and director cleverly connected the root of the social issues to be satirized in the plot with the dowry system in India. Regarding the etiquette and customs of dowry, the satire seems to be “commodifying” women, especially - the lost bride. There is another point in the story.The sub-story line is about the men in the village who want to gain greater benefits through the life experience of Jaya, a woman. The screenwriter and director use the most ironic way to show how humble and dangerous women are in such a society.So - The Lost Bride - is not only to make a statement about female empowerment, but also to show the various ugly human nature that arises from third parties such as vote-obsessed politicians and money-hungry police officers on these issues, satirizing such patriarchy.All kinds of insecurities and injustices that society brings to women.

I personally like "The Lost Bride". The director uses the most life-like dialogue method to show the appearance and feelings of these women in this society. There is a scene in which four women are talking about themselves and jokingly talking about how they contribute to the family.The sacrifices made, one of whom said she couldn't remember what she liked before, because she had spent her whole life remembering what her husband and son liked best, there was no particular cinematography or aesthetic used in this scene or dialogue.to present it, but the feeling it gives the audience will be particularly tense!Because this does not mean that this woman has internalized the pain and endured it, but that she has a sense of loss that she has completely looked away from this situation. Of course, she also has a desire to pursue happiness.

《The Lost Bride》What's great about this film is that it doesn't use heavy flavors or a gory way to show the social issues it wants to satirize, but instead shows these satires at a brisk pace that's a bit warm but full of humor and drama.!So overall I thought this movie had a comfortable feel to it, and the writer-director lovably depicts the journey of two heroines discovering their own sense of independence without downplaying the serious issues they face in a patriarchal society.The story in such a specific cultural background is a great viewing experience. If you are still waiting to watch this movie, I would personally recommend it!Worth a look!
