Rebecca Miller uses very conventional methods to show a woman's inner world, sensitive, contradictory, and finally illusory and thorough.
Pippa Lee is a woman who has been pursuing "freedom" all her life. After leaving a repressive family, she took refuge in a gay aunt; the aunt's lace companion released her inner impulse, but was swept out by the aunt; then she started Because of her drug-like indulgence, when she was numb, she met a middle-aged man who became a husband; when she formed a normal life, she did not understand her children, conflicted with her husband, broke with friends, and never died. Her restlessness pushed her to desperation again; at the end of the film, a terrible man who seemed to cherish each other walked into her world... It
seemed that she always jumped from one shackle to another cage, but in fact, as a female inner history, Different people at different stages of her will choose to accept, comfort and contentment, or continue to hollow out their own straight to perish... And she always finds another way at critical moments.
Sleepwalking seems to be the last breath of her self-regulation, but it is a pity that every time she wakes up, the pain is like an abyss. It is not the surrounding environment, but the unsatisfiable desire from the heart.
