Watching lie to me is for the shock of the information revealed in those micro-expressions.
those angry. sad. ashamed.
Those raised eyebrows. pouted. wrinkle.
And it's not just for these lies.
In order to maintain his relationship with his daughter, Lightman chose not to expose his daughter's lies. Although he treats colleagues and suspects so sharply, he criticizes their lies mercilessly.
Foster's keen judgment made her aware of her husband's lies long ago, but she still played the innocent and lovely good wife, calm and angry like a child who didn't know anything.
As Foster explained to Lightman's daughter: Because he knows that if he blows up every single one of your lies, he will lose you.
It's these feelings that make this show more than just cold and callous detective drama. Also, it taught me that some lies in life have to be lived with. They choose to ignore the lie, and although they know how dangerous it is to do so, they know that confronting the lie can only cause more harm. Just like the character who knows people by talent, she tells the man who asked her with a little sadness, I can see your every lie clearly, do you dare to be with me?
I remember talking to my dad that day. When I asked him impatiently and directly, "You just want me to do it", he said: You are too smart, and being too smart will keep people away from you, and people will not know how to continue talking to you.
This phrase has been popping up in my life ever since it appeared. Everywhere, when I'm about to blurt something out, I remember it. Then I would stop and think, why isn't what I'm hearing the truth? I debunked the big talk, how can I help? It is better to remain naive, to be alone, to be happy, and to be happy together. Truth or happiness, never both.
I suddenly discovered that maybe lie to me is not teaching us how to expose lies, but teaching us how to live well, stupidly and selectively ignore in this society full of lies.
You believe whatever you want. It's what everyone else does. Many things we choose to believe because i want.
