And who gets to define it? How much has really changed? And what patterns repeat across generations? In this Watch & Talk \, hosted by BO\, an expert in movie and music history\, we’ll explore t wo bold and controversial films: Shanghai Baby and New Women. Each\, in it s own time\, pushed boundaries\, sparked debate\, and offered a powerful l ens into the lives\, struggles\, and identities of women in a rapidly chan ging China. Through carefully selected scenes and BO’s expert insights\, we’ll unpack how these films portray independence\, desire\, societal p ressure\, and self-expression—and then bring the conversation into today . How do these depictions compare to modern women now? And how did these l ocally made films challenge not just Chinese society\, but also Western as sumptions and narratives about identity and freedom? Expect a discussion t hat’s culturally rich\, thought-provoking\, and surprisingly relevant— no prior knowledge needed\, just curiosity and a willingness to see famili ar questions in a deeper way. Let's sit back with good friends in comfy ch airs and watch scenes from films that reminded the world of China's capabi lity for opening minds and soft power. And\, of course\, let's have a fasc inating\, fun and intelligent discussion about our mutual cinematic journe y! “现代女性”到底意味着什么？又是谁在定义它？这 些年到底变了多少？又有哪些东西其实一直在重复？ 在 这场 Watch & Talk 中，BO 会带大家看两部挺有争议、也很有 代表性的电影：《Shanghai Baby》和《New Women》。它们在各 自的时代都引发过讨论，也提供了一种视角，让我们看 到女性在快速变化中的中国，是如何面对身份、欲望、 社会压力，还有自我表达的。 通过精选片段和 BO 的讲解 ，你会一起拆解这些电影是怎么呈现独立、选择、限制 这些问题的，然后把话题带回到今天。现在的女性，和 当时相比，有什么相似和不同？这些作品又是如何在挑 战中国社会的同时，也在回应西方对“身份”和“自由 ”的一些想象？这会是一场文化层面很丰富、但也挺贴 近现实的讨论。不需要提前了解背景，只要你愿意换个 角度看这些熟悉的问题。 找个舒服的位置，和大家一起 看电影片段，然后聊点有意思、有点深度的东西。 DTSTAMP:20260709T081703Z LOCATION:China\,\, Shanghai SUMMARY:Watch & Talk: New Women & Shanghai Baby - What Is A Modern Woman?
