Amy has always lived in a world of half truth and half falsehood. When she was a child, she was the prototype of the story The Great Amy created by her parents.
She has been exposed to the public since she was born, and everything she did and said will be exposed by the media. She didn't have a 36-degree camera with no dead angle in The Truman Show, but her heart was fitted with a camera by herself, and no mistakes were allowed.
As an adult, she met Nick, a handsome magazine writer. She fell in love with him at the first sight, and smart Amy knew what kind of girl she liked.
she pretends to be what the other person likes. Dress sexy, gulp down coke and dance to be cool. Confident, she successfully captured Nick's heart.
Soon they got married and started their married life of "torturing" each other.
Amy said, "We are the happiest couple. If we are not the happiest couple, what are we doing together?"
she is very strict about the purity of love. During the economic depression, both of them lost their jobs. Amy wanted to pay off her parents' 1 million debts with her own money. Nick tried to stop it. Amy looked at him and said, With you, everything is a thing apart.
As the money was used less and less, Nick had to take Amy back to the country. Nick and his sister opened a bar in a small town, and Amy was at home.
Amy is a romantic. She says that every wedding anniversary gift should be meaningful. In the first year, the gift should be related to paper. Amy bought Nick a beautiful notebook and asked him to write novels (Nick is an amateur writer). Nick gave Amy a kite, but Amy never let it go. In the fourth year, Amy said it was a flower-and-fruit wedding. She led Nick to the backyard, where there were carefully cultivated rose bushes (Nick described them as a group of withered roses). The fifth year was a wooden wedding. Nick complained to his sister that he didn't know what to send, and his expression was unbearable boredom. At this time, he was divorcing Amy.
What Nick never expected was that Amy disappeared when he got home. A pile of glass in the living room looks like someone broke into the house and kidnapped Amy.
Before the kidnapping case was confirmed, Nick's motive for murder made headlines. Neighbors publicly accused him of indifference and cold violence to his wife; His house and bar are under his wife's name, and he is in financial difficulties, so he suddenly signed up to raise his wife's premium. His affair with a female student was also dug up. The public opinion was overwhelming, and one side thought that Nick was cheating and was afraid of losing everything after the divorce, and then murdered his wife.
As soon as the camera turns, it's Amy driving in the open wilderness. She pretends to be a village woman and thinks about her seamless plan.
It snowed heavily that night, and she saw her husband looking at other women with loving eyes in the snow. She was angry and decided not to pretend to be herself. Since you can't keep love, you have to bind each other to death.
She planned a murder. In advance, she made a lot of preparations, crying to her neighbors about the unfortunate marriage, increasing the insurance premium, keeping a diary, creating a full-blown kidnapping scene, including finally committing suicide and framing Nick.
A perfect revenge begins. Nick has a hundred arguments. No one believes his suspicions. He has no choice but to beg for mercy. He repents in public and prays for forgiveness. At this time, Amy's money was robbed, and she found a rich second generation who had pursued herself. She smiled when she saw Nick confessing on TV, and then Amy, who was superb in acting, forged a scene in which she was kidnapped and abused by her ex and couldn't bear to kill each other by mistake.
Amy escaped and went back to Nick. Just when Nick wanted a divorce, Amy got pregnant with the sperm he had left in the hospital. She left her husband by almost cruel means and kept her marriage. From then on, their lives were only performances.
Amy said that she loved Nick. She said, "I forgot all the qualities I didn't like about myself. Maybe that's what I love most about him. He made me a different person. He didn't give me a new feeling, but made me a different person. "
She didn't know until later that Nick's love would make her want to be a better person and turn her into the most horrible demon, but she wouldn't be allowed to just be herself.
She kept crying to people: Nick took away my pride and dignity, as well as my hope and property. He kept asking me for it until I no longer existed. Later, she stopped talking, hiding her true self and feelings more deeply.
This Gone Girl makes many people feel the horror of women, and makes many men shudder at cheating. Imagine how your wife will tie you up even if she kills you, in order to keep you.
After more than two hours of movies, Amy never showed her true side. Before marriage, she was a charming and lovable cool girl. After marriage, she was a wife who kept asking her husband for security and lack of love. After killing, she could calmly face the camera and fabricate her own bad luck.
Maybe at first she just wants a lover who can make her happy, but in the end, she doesn't want to love, as long as someone is here. How bleak.
