The British really treat TV dramas as dramas. In this abused theme of derailment, they did not see the hysteria of the betrayed party in front of others, nor did they see the plastic feelings and justice faces of the people around the woman, and more I haven't seen the picture of tearing the little three by hand. On the ethical level of orthodoxy, gemma of course prevails; but in the specific situation in the film, the betrayed goes to a desperate situation that is denied successively by loved ones. Even Mary, who she trusted the most and regarded as the last straw, said to her, Be careful, you always know how to hurt people. For gemma's desire to be treated gently, this warning made her step in without hesitation. The icy sea; but in the end she could not end everything in such a weak way, her vitality must be shown in a rational extreme way.
From the beginning, she has been the one who bears everything. As the backing of the family, she is so strong that she doesn't know how to be gentle. It's not that she doesn't have the charm as a woman, it's that she doesn't do things that she doesn't think are necessary, and she has no way of accepting gray areas. Gemma is a completely unlovable person, she has no time to see the emotional demands of people around her, because she herself is unaware that she has these needs.
All the conflicts Gemma faces are inward, no matter how she tries to throw her choices out, hoping that the betrayer will come forward and be as sincere as she says she is about her feelings. But not only once, the other party denied it lightly. Faced with such a response, she was miserable, and she knew how embarrassing it would be if she dealt with it, but she would only do that, like the betrayal who gave the same answer no matter how many times.
Her strategy was as neat as a kebab, planning everything a few steps in advance, her son's emotions, her own body, all tools to be manipulated. Everything serves the moment when the steel balls are finally placed in the warehouse, and everything is comfortably in its place.
For women who can't rub the sand in their eyes, they will recklessly hurt themselves, hurt the people around them, and make the world show a normal order again. This is a desire, a desire to destroy everything as much as they want everything.
And gemma's biggest harm to herself is to completely erase the sincere and weak self. She doesn't pity herself, and she doesn't want others to pity her. When encountering an accident, her first reaction is to obtain information that can be used to make further inferences, and to continuously formulate implementation strategies. She is a strong person, and there is no one around her who can be with her. This kind of loneliness will break out because of a little wave. It is a kind of vitality, but it is a cruel face in the eyes of the people around.
Even the scene where she finally saw her ex-husband and his pregnant fiancée was cruel. Her eyes were full of a victorious attitude, just like the kind of demeanor she had just finished cleaning.
All value judgments are untenable here.
