I specially read the original book and then commented. Obviously, the essence of the text could not be fully presented in 2.5 hours. But in the story, the deformed mother and daughter are also well expressed. A control freak mother and a repressed, twisted daughter. Meet a quirky handsome student.
Like Erica in the book
, her delicate shield, her mother, are all locked together in a cheese dish with a glass lid. The glass cover will only open when someone outside grabs the round handle on top of the glass cover and lifts it up. Erica is a tiny insect in amber that is eternal and never grows old. . . .
She thought she could control Kramer's lust because of his love, but the truth was she couldn't, just as she couldn't control her own love and lust. She longs for eroticism but hates eroticism because of her long-term self-isolation and her mother's imprisonment. She longed for holiness but was utterly destroyed by her fantasy of eroticism. In the end, all conflicts will break out, and the knife she stabbed at herself is an outlet for pain and a determination to break free.
