At the beginning, both of them had great expectations for this adopted daughter, especially Kate, who has been struggling to come out of the grief of the death of her third child, and having one more child has always been the way to change her life. It may also be the unique delicacy of women that made Kate discover the abnormality of the adopted daughter very early, and these were indeed ignored by her husband.
The accident in the park and the story brought by the nun have all aroused Kate's vigilance. It is undeniable that this vigilance is more caused by concern for her family. Because I have enough love for my children and my husband, I can't allow them to take a little risk and get hurt a little bit, so Kate wants to send my adopted daughter to a psychiatrist. What I never understand is why the husband does not trust his wife and trusts a stranger (adopted daughter and psychiatrist), this may also be the instinctive expression of men, and it is also because the husband's love for the family is far less than that of the wife. The plots that can prove this point of view can be seen everywhere in the film. The most obvious
one is that the son was injured in the hospital. At that time, there were only two people except the injured son, one was the younger daughter and the other was the adopted daughter. The police should have found that someone set the fire, and normal people who are in love with their son would also suspect the person at the scene. The youngest daughter is too young, it is impossible, so the biggest suspect is the adopted daughter, so Kate's suspicion is reasonable, But my husband has no such idea at all. Even the sedated Kate's pleas for her husband to protect the youngest daughter from her adopted daughter were ignored.
Another point is that the adopted daughter tried to seduce her husband. After her husband discovered her dark side, in fact, as a normal person, she could basically judge that the wife's words were not made out of nothing. Then he should be worried about another member of the family - the youngest daughter, but unfortunately, until the husband was killed by the adopted daughter, he did not discover his tendency to seek the youngest daughter, which had to surprise and chill me. On the contrary, Kate received a call from the mental hospital, and after knowing the horror of her adopted daughter, she rushed home regardless of her own life, and she did not hesitate to die with her adopted daughter to save my youngest daughter. I was very moved.
I think this film can be summed up as the sense of family responsibility of men and women reflected by the different expressions of husband and wife to protect the family and family when a mysterious stranger breaks into a family.
