It seems to me that Lily and Amanda both ended up in the end because of various family conditions. Let me talk about Lily first, no matter how hypocritical and vain she is, she has a sincere affection for her mother, which can be seen in the argument with her stepfather in the kitchen. There are many details to see that Lily's mother is obedient to her stepfather. If there is no reason, how could she agree to let her daughter go to that kind of chaotic school, not to mention that the stepfather told her mother "he wants to make my color healthier." . The ninth grade funeral may have contributed to Lily's vanity character, but it did not affect the development of the film. Amanda’s lack of emotion may be caused by a childhood experience or a congenital illness. In his memory, riding with Lily as a child is the best memory, so in the last letter to Lily, the dreams she repeatedly dreamed about were related Horse and Lily, the pictures on the wall are also pictures of them riding a horse together. Horse symbolizes freedom, amanda loves horse riding very much, and in her mind only Lily is her good friend. So in the end she felt joy, which is also the growth of Amanda. Lily has gone through a lot of psychological struggles. First, she was dissatisfied with her stepfather, including the stepfather’s restriction of her activities, and the mother’s obedience to the stepfather. She also knew that she had to obey the stepfather for her own financial resources. Lily was in the beginning. Hesitating to commit suicide can be seen in the scene in the swimming pool at Amanda's house. When she knew that she was going to be sent to a school for gangsters by her stepfather, she gradually made up her mind to kill her stepfather.
In fact, Amanda and Lily are very similar. All are obsessed with freedom, all for growth. Lily will bear her kind of false lies all her life, and Amanda has found her own soul. There is a scene where Amanda is wrapped in a bath towel in front of the mirror to imitate Lily's hairstyle and expression. She actually wants to be Lily's kind of person with ordinary feelings, but she can't do it. Maybe she will keep approaching her if she can't do it herself. Regardless of her good or bad, Lily will always be a good friend to Amanda. In the end, Amanda said to Lily before fainting: "I'm just a very powerful imitator." It shows that she has real feelings in her heart, but she can't express it. Finally Lily said that I had thrown the letter away. I think it’s understandable. Amanda and Lily don’t need to meet again. After all this, they both got what they wanted and got what they wanted. Lily didn’t lose her wealth. Status, Amanda smiled from the heart for the first time. These are all things they expect, and for themselves, they are all good breeds of animals.
