只是想摘抄几段话
这篇影评可能有剧透
我非常喜欢《丹麦女孩》这部电影,但我觉得下面这番评价也非常值得思考。
What’s remarkable about his performance is the transness, is the way that he’s been able to manifest those feminine parts of himself into a convincing trans performance, but it reduces that person, in this case, who was a real person, to a performance of transness, to a performance of femininity, rather than as a whole person, of whom transness is one aspect of.
临近纪录片结尾的这几段话非常有启发。呈现非常重要,但这只是手段,更重要的是去改变制度性的歧视和偏见,这场跨性别革命还在进行中,因为革命应该惠及更多的普通人,而不只是荧幕上的人。
Children cannot be what they cannot see.
We cannot be a better society until we see that better society. I cannot be in the world until I see that I am in the world.
We always have to be really skeptical when a few people are elevated and the majority of people are still struggling.
Having positive representation can only succeed in changing the conditions of life for trans people when it is part of a much broader movement for social change. Changing representation is not the goal. It’s just the means to an end.
I wonder if people who watch and love these shows, I wonder if they will reach out to trans people in need and work to defeat policies that scapego at us, policies that discriminate against us, policies that dehumanize us. Because until that happens, all that energy from the silver screen won’t be enough to better the lives of trans people off the screen.
