The translation I've seen could be better. Setsuko Hara (also translated Noriko) said that her father's friend's remarriage was "really ugly" instead of "unclean", and she thought it was a shameful thing for a man to renew his character and a betrayal of his daughter. In addition, the father's student apparently had a fiancée, and he came when Noriko got married, and told the location of their honeymoon. It should be said that this film is about the loss of her mother at an early age, and the father and daughter are dependent on each other, which makes Noriko have a serious love father plot. This psychological tendency made her feel very happy and perfect living by her father's side. At the same time, she hated her father's remarriage very much. She couldn't allow her father to live with other women, which took her place in her father's heart. On her last trip, she finally confessed to her father that she wanted to be with him forever, that she could not have found greater happiness in any other family—what a morbid experience, and what a depressing experience it was Heartache. Here, her psychological barriers are dug deep. I believe that all those who have an Electra/mother plot will feel the same way when they watch this film, and they will burst into tears.

However, the father could detect his daughter's psychological problems, and he resolutely refused. When his daughter asked him viciously if he wanted to remarry, every answer he answered was affirmative, which was very powerful. Here, the audience began to doubt. , Is this father really so cruel, knowing that his daughter has an Electra... But the film later gave a very convincing explanation, because the father was lying! He just wanted to force his daughter to marry off and find her own happiness. He told his daughter that marriage does not mean happiness. The first year or two is used to create a new life. It takes a lot of hard work. Only by enduring the past can you create your own happiness. And he is 56 years old, and it is impossible to live a happy life with him.

Noriko is not afraid that the status quo of life will be changed, but the serious Electra plot is at fault. The most impressive part of the film is her anger and depression, the glaring look at her father when she learned that her father was planning to remarry (betraying her love). This film should be said to be an excellent psychological film. Noriko's words and deeds vividly portray the state of a girl with Electra when the conflict erupts.

So, what is the Electra? Some children develop a strong Electra (also known as Oedipus) at the age of 3-6, which, if not corrected in infancy and allowed to develop, becomes a hindrance to self-establishment in adulthood Severe psychological disorders in new families. Freudian psychoanalysis has a very detailed account of this problem. We can also observe many such children around us, and they need timely guidance and proper education.
