"What's your specialty?" "My specialty is, believe." Believe, the most common word, sometimes pays an immeasurable price. I have been very confused recently, doubting love and questioning the marriage system. There is nothing that lasts forever, but it is the secretion of dopamine, how does it last for a long time, and what does it rely on to maintain a life-long relationship? The answer is trust, although that is almost mission impossible. The lovely, pitiful and somewhat neurotic woman, for a far-reaching request from her husband, embarked on a road of no return, which is also the road of redemption. Where people can go with trust, and what the so-called religion of salvation has given those who believe, the film's interpretation is unique and profound. When Beth was covered in blood, lying on the hospital bed to meet her death, she was not afraid of death, but that everything in reality would delete her, remove her from her name, and be completely abandoned by the environment and people she lived in. Even Beth, who can sacrifice everything for love, is bound by the environment in which she lives in the end. It may not be those huge concepts and events that change us, but the habitual concepts and life, so ingrained that they are almost carved into our soul.
The power of faith is so powerful that it can make a fragile and neurotic woman desperate. Watching Beth serve strangers on the bus, watching Beth being ravaged by the crew on the boat, my heart is shaking, what makes such a humble and timid little woman who often plays God and talks to herself bravely move forward , watching Beth escaped from the boat and being cast aside by everyone, the pain of not being able to be herself, and finally resolutely deciding to use her own death in exchange for her husband's peaceful eyes (even if this logic does not hold at all), watching Beth in the She once said that she liked to take off her clothes in front of the doctor but was rejected and cried bitterly. The absurdity of the content further reflects the power of belief. Of course, greatness is not love, but love is only a catalyst for choice.
