The life of the despised Catherine

After watching the three seasons of "Dark", I have to ask me which character is the most memorable. The first thing I remembered in my mind was not the protagonist Jonas or Martha, but Katherine.

In the first season, the screenwriter didn’t pay much attention to it, and more of the scene was placed on her husband Ulich. We watched Ulich cheat, watched him investigate the missing child, and watched him find his son. , Watching him travel back to 1953, but we ignore Catherine.

Even in the first season, her image was a bit annoying. When she was in middle school in 1987, her image of a big sister who bullied others made me dislike her.

In the second and third seasons, she knew the truth of time travel. The first thing she thought of was not other things, but traveled back to 1987 to find her son and husband. It can be seen that she really loves Ulrich. Even if Ulich cheated on her first, she still wanted to save him, so that she died at the hands of her mother. But Mikael’s disappearance was not a pain of losing a child to Catherine, and she had to endure her husband’s derailment and betrayal.

The role of mother is another complicated image for Catherine. She herself is a mother. He wanted to give the child the best care and the purest love, but she did not find solace from his mother, who gave birth to her when she was unmarried and regarded her as a demon.

What impressed me the most was that in the fifth episode of the third season, after my mother killed Katherine by the lake, she returned home and vented all her anger on little Katherine, scolded her as a demon, and scolded her as a bitch.

I saw this scene both angry and sad. What is angry is that for a girl like Catherine, it seems that birth is a fault. What’s sad is that this “error” is deeply imprinted on a girl like Catherine. The children are deeply written in their tragic fate.

This reminded me of Xiaowen's being violated by the principal in "Carnival". Not only did her mother not comfort Xiaowen, but she cut her hair and scolded her for wearing inconsistent clothes.

The more you think about it, the more sad you will feel, like a scalpel separating your throat, letting the blood drain and the cold wind into the bones.

Like a pine nut, Catherine has been deceived, betrayed, and disliked all her life. Even if she is an independent woman like the head of a high school, she has been repeatedly hurt. Isn't her destiny a portrayal of many women in reality?

She was Li Xingxing who was violated by Bao Yuming,

Jiang Ge, who was brutally murdered, was also her.

In this society in which prostitutes are persuaded to behave while scolding victims of sexual assault for dressing up, men are hurting women and women are hurting women.

Catherine's life is like walking in the dark fog. She is doomed to a tragic fate. Isn't it circulating again in other women?

The life of the despised Catherine is also the life of a woman who is despised.

At this time, the more I think about it, the more sad it is. It is not easy to be born.
