For those who have been violated and hurt, what is more important than a fair and just outcome is that some people really care about them, and some people are using their own actions to make them have good expectations for the world again.
I liked the end of the seventh episode very much. Marie's desperate talk to the psychologist was interspersed with the scenes of two female police officers who were seriously working on the case. Like beauty and justice in the cracks. Like a voice-over that never appeared: "It's not like this, there are people in this world who really care about you and are helping you."
In the final episode, Marie accepted 150,000, and when the lawyer said there could be more, she said that was enough for her to start a new life. She came to the beach and drew traces with her feet on the beach. She called Officer Duark and thanked her for everything she had done.
“I spent my whole life try really hard to believe that most people are basically good, even the one I knew who is worse. I guess it gives me hope or something. Then the thing happened, the rape. And it became harder for me to believe there was really any good in the world. I think that was the hardest part of this whole thing. Waking up feeling hopeless. But then, I heard about two people in other part of country looking out for me, making this right and…. It’s more than anything else, more than him get locked up, more than the money I got. It changes me completely. I wake up now, I can imagine good things happening.”
I watched "Killing Eve", "Big Little Lies" and "Why Women Kill" in the past two years. They are all great dramas that portray women. Compared with these films, "Unbelievable" personally thinks it will be more profound.
