“Monster” Review :it is adapted from a real story, prostitute kills 7 people in a row, Charlize Theron plays her regardless of the image

Finally got a chance to see Charlize Theron starring in the movie “Monster”, which won the Oscar for best actress, and finally believed that she deserved the award.

Released in 2004, “Monster” swept through major international film festivals that year. It was full of controversial themes and novel and unique shooting techniques, and it attracted wide attention when it was released in the United States.

Among them, the heroine Charlize Theron has won many awards at major film festivals with her superb acting skills!

This woman with freckled, toothy, bloated, grassy blond hair is hard to relate to without telling you she’s Charlize Theron.

Charlize Theron, who gained 13 kilograms in “Monster”, shaved her eyebrows, painted age spots and scars, put on uneven dentures, etc., won her 17 actress titles!

“Monster” is based on a true story. In 1989-1990, Aileen Wuornos killed seven people in a row. She was arrested shortly after, declaring that the men were going to rape her that’s why she shot them.

She is also wanted by a girl named Selby Wall, who was later located by police and who agreed to testify against her gay partner, Aileen.

After her arrest, Aileen said the killing had nothing to do with Selby and told the tragic story of being raped by her grandfather at the age of 13.

Aileen was finally sentenced to death in 2002.

The story based on a true story is actually quite dangerous. The American media called Aileen a “lesbian murderer”. Under the skillful hand of the screenwriter, she became a lesbian who “killed for love”. She was a lesbian until she died. Believe that “love can overcome everything”.

She doesn’t even think she’s guilty of murder, and explains to her little girlfriend Selby that people kill people every day in this world, for politics, for religion, and they’re called heroes, trying to cover up their crimes.

If love becomes the reason for killing, the values ​​of this world will be seriously distorted.

Of course, Murderer’s values ​​are inherently distorted. Although Aileen still struggles when he kills.

But all Aileen’s efforts to convince Selby and the audience come to naught when she ruthlessly shoots and kills an old gentleman who’s willing to give her a ride instead of having sex with her.

“There is love that overcomes everything”, so is there someone who loves Aileen a little more so that none of this will happen?

Female director Patty Jenkins faced protests from many of the victims’ families when she filmed the controversial true story.

They think that filming the “criminal” story will mislead the public. Do they encourage people to do such a thing in order to become famous?

What’s special about the director is that she’s not just filming a crazy murderer, she’s filming why a woman becomes the murderer of seven consecutive murders on American highways.

The director wants everyone to understand why crime is committed, rather than simply resisting crime.

This small-budget independent film does not focus on the plot of Aileen’s violent murder, but spends a lot of effort to describe the homosexuality of Aileen and Selby.

It also emphasizes at the beginning that Aileen is not gay, thereby underscoring Aileen’s desire to be loved.

But Aileen, who was loved, went down the road of destruction step by step, which seemed to contradict the concept that the screenwriter told us through Aileen at the moment of his death.

Charlize Theron, who was born in South Africa, has always been known as the successor of Marilyn Monroe. Her beautiful appearance and sexy figure made her attract attention very early.

But also because of her too prominent appearance, the public ignores her acting strength, and always arranges the role of vase to add color to the movie for her, which makes her suffer from no space to exert her acting skills.

Charlize Theron is not a woman who is willing to be at the mercy of others. She wants to let the world know that there are flowers in the vase!

She fought hard for the show, even though the director had been uneasy about how a sexy beauty could play a murderer struggling at the bottom of society.

Theron still won the opportunity with her determination and acting skills, and she shined with it.

Wouldn’t the audience feel aggrieved when others wondered how such a beautiful woman sacrificed so much?

Theron replied succinctly, “I’ve been dancing ballet for twelve years, and I know the body is just a tool, we just use it.”

It shows the decisiveness that women in the new era are willing to pay for work and self-realization, and her perseverance and independent thinking makes her even more elegant.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that Charlize Theron can hold up the whole movie alone. If it weren’t for her to play the murderer, “Monster” would probably have lost a lot of color.

A world of sorrow and withering, cruel and ruthless reality, admirable acting skills, a deserving actress!
