Including Amanda also said that I hope Lily will do this because she thinks it is right, not just because she feels upset for a while to vent her anger. Although Amanda plays an insensitive, unsentimental psychopath, Lily may actually be psychologically flawed. Because Amanda is at least willing to face her own problems, and Lily's disguise is too heavy, she doesn't even know that she is lying to herself, she thinks that the only option to gain freedom is to kill Mark or commit suicide, and there is no other choice.
I only remember the last letter roughly. The basic meaning is that the houses in the suburbs where the upper class originally lived are turned into ruins, and the horses are running here.
To some extent, they all gained the freedom they wanted. For Amanda, maybe Lily is the wild horse, which can't give her the grassland, but can give her the right to choose. The film is also ambiguously expressing a bond between women, like Amanda is in a crush on Lily, or has a certain affection. It turns out that it was because Amanda had a relationship with Lily when she was a child, and that was a purely beautiful riding companion. In the beginning, Amanda went to her house in the photo frame with only herself on horseback. It was a group photo but only herself, as if Lily deliberately left only herself and completely forgot about Amanda. Judging from this photo, the brains are wide open, it is possible that all of this was planned by Lily in the beginning.
So it is very likely that Amanda likes Lily to sacrifice for her like this. After all, Amanda only killed a horse and killed it out of empathy, while Lily killed a person. So the one who is really cold-blooded is actually Lily.
If Lily didn't read the letter in the end, it would prove that Lily has always been the psychopath with anti-social personality. After all, she really cares about Amanda. Even if Amanda drank the juice of the medicine, Lily would not blame her. This was the choice Amanda gave her. And she finally chose to blame Amanda, just like Lily's stepdad Mark said, the existence of other people in her mind is like a maid, only serving her.
What she wants is not only freedom, but also because she wants to live what she imagined and have an upper class life. Amanda said she despised Mark because Mark is rich, but in fact she just despises Mark. It’s like a fantasy in a spa. At first, I mistakenly thought that she actually had some unspeakable feelings for her stepdad, because the stepdad did not like herself to make such extreme behaviors, but then I discovered that The essence of fantasy is to despise her stepdad as an animal lower than her own.
In the end, her cry may be a real emotional expression, or it may be a test whether she has learned the skill of pretending to cry.
