I give this movie four stars. In this society that preaches "being thin or dead", being fat seems to be a mistake. I hope there will be more movies to guide the correct aesthetics. Why didn't you give five stars? Because it is a pity, the film does not dig into the psychological barriers of people with eating disorders, nor does it give a way to get rid of eating disorders. I am not against those who say that movies are boring, because they have never felt the same way. This is their luck. And I cried when I watched it. Ellen was so thin that he counted calories, exercised frantically, and measured the dimensions of his arms. He knew that his body had issued a warning, but he smiled when he lost his weight. Ellen knew that something was wrong, but couldn't stop. The family didn't understand why Ellen became like this. but I know. Because Ellen is too conceited and too inferior. Because Ellen feels that controlling his diet means controlling his life, which is the pleasure of overcoming the pain he brings. Because Ellen felt that no one would like Ellen if it weren't for the thin, beautiful and good Ellen. Who can help Ellen? Psychologist? Ellen received a lot of psychotherapy, but they all failed. Admirer? Luke fell in love with Ellen and tried to get Ellen to eat, but failed. family? Ellen's mother, stepmother, and sister care about her, but still can't help her. Ellen made a cocoon for herself, a cocoon that only she could break. I want to say to Ellens, and I want to say to myself: Don't expect someone to save you, only you can save yourself. Let go of yourself, weight is not the subject of life. Even if the whole world doesn't like you, you must like yourself!
