In the simple characters and environment settings, the audience sees acute social problems and tangled love stories. Martha's intimacy with Karen was first laid out in the film. Director William Wyler also took care of many details. The issues reflected in the film point sharply at Catholic conservatives in the United States. In the 1960s, such an issue seemed quite brave. In order to achieve a satirical effect, the creator of the rumor was designed by the director to be a child. The character of Dr. Cardin in the film is somewhat patriarchal. It can be seen that the director still has expectations for male rescuers. Audrey Hepburn's sweet smile is cute, but Shirley MacLaine's performance is even more exciting

Kino Lorber released Blu-ray (disc dealer SJ) in 2014. The 8.8-point child's lie exposes the repressed emotions that have to be hidden in the heart under the rules of the adult world. The unfathomable human nature cannot withstand even a little bit of temptation. Lies and truth are like The same face of the double-faced god of Janus, the handover of twins is the ultimate code of good and evil, heaven and hell. A powerful and excellent script, as well as the interpretation of heaven and man by the actors, even the acting skills of children are so amazing . Hepburn's performance was suppressed by MacLaine, one of the two sisters, but it can also be called equal; the addition of Hopkins and Bernt makes this closed town's masterpiece on taboo topics full of more. So classical and nostalgic (it was very emotional to see Hopkins holding a photo of herself when she was young). It's a pity that the video quality has not been restored to the highest specifications

The first half was drowsy and almost gave up the film, but after watching it, I was very sad. In the end, Hepburn leaned on the corner, and I guessed at that moment that she went back and told her that I love you too, but the reality is indeed more cruel, and I think this ending is better.

Mrs. Lily Mortar: [about Mary] Oh, what happened? Did she fall?
Karen: No, I was disciplining her.
Mrs. Lily Mortar: And you finally hit her?

Dr. Joe Cardin: We can't go on like this. Everything I say is made to mean something else!
Karen: I guess every word has a new meaning. Child, love, friend, woman. There aren't many safe words anymore. Even 'marriage' doesn't have the same meaning anymore.
Dr. Joe Cardin: It does to me, and it should to you, if
[he pauses]
Karen: If what?
