Philomena's remorse and hesitation should be in line with the real reaction of an old lady of her age, education level, and living and working environment. For ordinary people of their generation, the purity and importance of religion is far beyond the reach of elite figures, or young people today.
Although she can understand her forgiveness to a certain extent, Philomena's accusation of Martin's angry behavior when Martin accuses the nun is a little ridiculous. Although she herself said that her decision to forgive was difficult, not so easy. Perhaps for the sake of his own career, while following Philomena to find her son, Martin did something for his own good, but not so good for Philomena. But when he finally returned to the church where the journey started, should he calmly record that Philomena chose to forgive?
