The female protagonist is very typical, and the women in the patriarchal society are timid and struggling. Have self-seeking and fear the cruelty of reality. Her profession is very special, as a painter. So she is sentimental and emotional. But apart from painting, she rarely communicates with others and expresses herself. Perhaps it was because in the social environment at that time, the education she received from an early age made her subconsciously devalue herself. In other words, she is just a housewife who knows how to paint. She is talented in art, and she can keenly capture her inner feelings. However, she is not confident.
She will only make a decision when there is no way to endure extreme circumstances. She is not brave. The two divorces were because they really couldn't bear the way their husband treated him, so they ran away from the house with their daughter. In the end, it was faith that gave her the strength to make her first courageous decision in her own life. Take back what belongs to her, accuse her of hurting her and use her, and face all the previous evasion and self-deception. Live back to what you are.
However, there is one thing that must be admitted that without her speculative and selfish ex-husband, her works might be like those famous artists, who have been obscured but will shine after the author's death. At least based on her character, it is impossible for her to sell her work so quickly. However, her success is indeed what she deserves.
The whole movie shows the heroine's inner changes very delicately and very attractively. Other roles also have their own characteristics and vivid images. The actor who played the teenage daughter at the end is indeed a bit like the big eyes series, a bit weird.
