14、human.”友情面面观埃伦古85受1 从多方面看来，这是一部不足挂齿的小制作电影.平淡无奇。没有大成本制作的追逐员面,没有血相的枪战.故事结尾也没得出什么意味深长的结论.2 然而她还是觉得克劳迪娅R尔的电影女华友？温婉动人。它缓缓地向我们呈现了友俏的全貌一一它的脆斑、生命力，以及它连接两个年轻女子人生的纽带作用。3 电影放完了，她回想起这一年看过的几部电影一一茉莉亚机4转折点还有现在这部女挚友h似乎电影作品镜头这一特别视角已经大大变更了聚焦对象。一转瞬出俩好的电影已经被反映出蜜友情的影片所泞代。4 这并不仅仅是另一场时尚狂欢,而是一种实录电影的潮流.就这一次电影反映一种转向，不只是从男性转向
