彩虹艳尽半边天

一部好的电影总是能够给予在黑暗与痛苦中生活的人们坚强的希望。“人生正是因为有裂缝，阳光才能照进来”。生活的苦楚不能因为种种的失败与磨难就让人生消极，总是要面对的生活，总是要继续前进的人生脚步，只有当我们真正坚强起来了，真正独挡一面的时候，真正敢于勇敢的直面生活的失意与困苦时，那裂缝的人生才能发散出彩虹般的光芒。
这部片子其实不仅仅是对黑人女孩有极大的鼓舞作用，放到任何一个人种身上都可以，因为它鼓励的是那些生活不尽如意的人，是那些需要帮助却无法得到帮助的人，是那些需要支持却临崖独立的人。电影被称为艺术，是因为一个艺术的东西正是因为能够给予人带来希望才被人所肯定。
生命是脆弱的，生活的多舛的，人生的冷暖只有如鱼饮水，冷暖自知。外人给不了你什么具体的，只有靠自己才能真正站起来，当软弱的你独自蜷缩在沙发上伤心欲绝的时候，可曾想过撩起那遮挡阳光的窗帘？只有我们自己的内心站起来了，那属于自己的一闪窗才能打开。只有这样才能真正的被认为是坚强。
一部好电影之所以是公认为是好电影，并不仅仅局限于它的摄影多么多么的好，它的色彩多么多么的好，演员表演多么多么的好，更重要的是，它给予了看这部电影的人多大的心灵感触，给予了人们多大的生活希望，给予了人们多大的生活鼓舞，让我们在直面惨淡的生活困苦面前能够永旺直前，不畏困难迎难而上。
正是因为有了这么多的不如意，正是因为有了这么的苦难，我们才有如此坚强的心。感谢那些在人生命运上给予我们制造困难的时光，正是因为有了这些才让生命如此多彩，焕发青春。

sing a righteous gospel
let her be born
let her be born

（因为电影改编自戏剧 所以找了写原文的部分诗 贴出来）

我是看了”the hope “和”the color purple“两本书, 对这些colored women and girls的故事有了很多兴趣和感慨。电影可以给四星，给这些演员们精湛的演技，尤其是那大段的台词功力。但总感觉导演用力过猛，把它往舞台剧的方向导了，过犹不及是我对全片的感觉。

“for colored girls, who have considered suicide but are moving to the ends of their own rainbows" 影片最后用彩虹的色彩打出了这段文字，意在用片中8位黑人女性的浴火重生告诉我们 “阳光总在风雨后”吧。

之所以想写这个短评，是因为我在观影后接到了一个闺蜜的电话，话题不轻松，我们的心绪也更DOWN。 也许我们一直在执拗的遵循自己的价值观做事，想追求一种尽可能pure的状态。殊不知，跌跌撞撞的过程让自己身心俱疲不说，到头来，还成了世俗眼中的 “colored girl". 这就回到了我的心理医师说到的问题 “你面临的选择是继续走下去，还是寻求改变，避开这个坎？”。当然，心理医师只是一语中的的指出问题所在，不会给出答案，只有自己才是自己的上帝，如我这几日的座右铭“只有自己的双手才能撑起自己的腰杆”。 其实这样的谈话，在我们的inner circle里不知道进行了多少次，不是说此题无解，其实答案早在我们的心中。虽然闺蜜叫嚣着“当初遇人不淑，现在悔不当初，我要打破旧世界，建立新世界”，其实我笃定，明天的太阳照常升起的时候，她还是那个她。跌到不怕，爬起再跑呗，失去了自我才是最要我们命的事情。

所以啊，骂一骂，过过嘴瘾，好歹修补下心理的缺口。我们没有影片中那么悲怆的人生，但every girl deserves her own rainbow。 炼丹炉里走过一遭又一遭，风雨来了一波又一波，我就不信我们用青春耗不来彩虹。

与姐妹们共勉！

All girls around the world are psychologically similar regardless of their ages, races and colors. They are always striving for beauty, elegant life and dreams. But life is always that hard and gives you unwatned things. We should always remeber that Yourself is the most import person in the world. Always to be yourself. To read, to travel, to do whatever your like and finally you will grow into someone who cannot be hurt by any man, because you can live a better life on your own.
