凡夫俗女

1. 良好的工作环境：一间有落地窗的宽敞办公室

2. 灵感起搏器：酒，给明摆着或者藏到书后面都行，喝完以后六亲不认的那种

3. 着装自由：日常颓里颓气不是事儿，只要一办趴，那必须立刻西装燕尾服洋房二楼请

4. 自信：校领导惹不起我，开除是不会的，最多给我sabbatical

5. 专一：喝多以后谁都可以骂，但还要给喜欢的女孩子买裙子，要到处找她提醒她有考试

6. 真才实学：emmm毕竟，没有谈资拿什么跟喜欢的人调情嘛

This is a film about education as self-transformation, Susan, a working-class girl, becomes Rita (she takes the name from Rita Mae Brown, author of the book Rubyfruit Jungle, which I discuss in chapter 3), through a process of being educated in literature. The narrative dramatizes how becoming civil is not simply about learning to read the right books or learning to appreciate the right objects but is about developing a different relationship to those objects. So in the first instance Rita learns by su>itchinga^ecrions, by learning to appreciate some things, or to appreciate the difference between pulp fiction and literature. But by the end she becomes free from any such affection. She says, “You think you did nothing for me. You think I ended up with a whole lot of quotes and empty phrases. Well, all right. I did. But that wasn’t your doing, I was too hungry for it all. I didn’t question anything. I wanted it all too much so I wouldn’t let it be questioned. Told you I was stupid,” Her hunger for knowledge about x becomes symptomatic of her failure to transcend the working-class habitus that makes becoming educated desirable in the first place.

For Rita to become educated requires that she become free from hunger for things, from insistence on and in enjoyment. Having become free, Rita can now choose, with the capacity for choice being organized through tropes of indifference; “I might go to France. I might go to London. I might just stay here and carry on with my studies. I might even stay here and have a baby, I don’t know. I will make a decision. I will choose.” Becoming civil converts the language of “must” to the language of “might” and eventually to the language of will and choice. We end up with a fantasy of a moral and middle-class subject as the one who is without habit, who will and can choose insofar as they are imagined as free from inclination.

很佩服这个女主演，我一直认为，好的女喜剧演员（不是靠出丑的那种）是演员中的演员，也最难得。

都说这是另类版的“窈窕淑女”，我看这部片子比“窈窕淑女”要深刻的多。虽然同样是讲教育讲麻雀变凤凰，但是这部戏显然超越了窈窕淑女的层次，开始认真探讨教育的目的和本质的问题，女主丽塔因为不甘心每个周末跟家人坐在同一间酒吧里齐齐的唱一只同样的歌而进入大学的夜间部学习文学，她要唱一只better song。

丽塔在接受醉鬼教授弗兰克的教导后，最终在保留自我保留天性的前提下提升了自己，她口音未变，性格不变，知识丰富的同时，找到了属于自己的路，读书思考是为找到滋润灵魂的养料，构建强大丰富的自己，而不是仅仅是为了吹牛炫耀，为了进入某个阶层。

丽塔在读书学习的第二个年头，还在跟她的导师说：“我要变成淑女的样子，我要学会优雅的谈吐。”她的导师说：“那一钱不值，你不过会变成一只different song，而不是一只better song。”

I think most of us is standing in a special place which is like we are not here and we are also not belong to there. We are trying to sing a better song. And we do everything we can do to achieve it. But the most ridiculous thing is. In the end you will find you are singing an absolutely different song.
