Let morality torture the heart and let the law judge reality.

This is a morally oriented film. Every audience is undergoing a psychological torture during the viewing process. With the successful atmosphere rendering and the wonderful performance of the actors, the audience's sense of substitution is even stronger. What the two characters, son-in-law and mother, did objectively did not make the heroine worse, so their repentance depends more on the fate of the heroine. Many people will use hypocrisy to satirize son-in-law and mother. They think that the son-in-law is just lusting for beauty, and the mother is just doing whatever she wants now like a beggar. But the behavior of the son-in-law made the heroine live a relatively happy life. Regardless of her mentality, the mother rescued some people, and she refused to help the heroine because the heroine lied and was unwilling to reveal more details. We can criticize them on a moral level, but do they really need to bear a lot of responsibility for the death of the heroine objectively? Therefore, they excused themselves after thinking that the heroine did not die, and did not prove how evil they were. At the same time, the irony is that the things that make the heroine's life obviously worse are the two characters with high moral sense in the play, the daughter and the son. They repented most thoroughly, but in fact they were also the most responsible in the event, so should they have moral superiority over their mother and son-in-law?
The inconsistent behavior of mothers and sons-in-law is the most criticized. It also proves two points. We will repent for the consequences of our behavior, but we will not pay for the consequences of our behavior. The former point is the flash of human nature, and the latter point is the limitation of human nature. There is a line in the film That's how the law works. It's not wrong, but it always sounds harsh in such a morally tortured film. This is the meaning of the movie, on the basis of the fact, let people torture themselves a little more. Not everything is based on morality, but a little more thinking in addition to rational judgment.
Finally, let morality torture the heart and let the law judge reality.



--------Dividing line--------
Such a film is still suitable to appear in a country with a relatively complete legal system, telling people that there is a morality in addition to the law. At the same time, this kind of reflection is also conducive to the further improvement of the law. In order to avoid the occurrence of tragedies, it is ultimately necessary to rely on the completeness of the law. Thinking on the moral level is to remind people that there are still these omissions, these injustices, and to urge people to make progress. Instead of being misunderstood by people as having good morals and good morals, as long as we wholeheartedly improve our ideological and moral standards, the world can become a beautiful world...
