The whole film has a neat structure, and the number of times the meaning of apple echoes is just right. Inheritance and transformation do not make people feel deliberate, and the subject matter focuses on middle-aged women: mothers, birth attendants, daughters, sisters. It also resonated with me, a 20-year-old woman.
Every turn is almost predictable, but not boring. The whole film is two hours and seven minutes. It can be said to be procrastinating, or it can be said that the director's long shot wants us to feel the kind of depression and aggrieved. Several times the tears will not let the tears flow out, and the atmosphere rendering is well balanced.
The ending of the trial was as expected, and the final half-open happy ending also gave a proper blank, so as not to worry about where Lucy came from, and there is room to imagine the later happy life of the protagonist Martha. I like it, very moved.
