Francis - a boiling, loving soul

Hollis 2022-11-10 15:30:02

Soft, sweet voice, hard, strong character, in her eyes, these mundane, rude, and even vulgar people who use tricks happen to cause her to be insulted and hurt. And they called her "a blond maniac", noble but crazy, the beautiful embodiment of their fascination, and the object they were ready to cast aside and destroy. "I refuse to be who you want me to be - dull, ordinary, normal"

The lover, the patron who had tried to save her, took her from the nursing home, from the mental hospital, and left her sadly because of her 'lost'. A brilliant career, a wonderful husband, a beautiful movie star, the mother's desperation is that she never had what she ardently longed for, and the daughter's desperation was to get everything she didn't want. So she threw everything away and tried to be a happy, carefree, no-one, but she couldn't get it. I really want to scold - what a bunch of hypocritical bitches, sanctimonious bastards.

Frances quotes

  • Harry York: Frances, you're crazy.

    Frances Farmer: [softly] Don't tell anybody.

  • Lillian Farmer: When you get well, you're going to thank me.

    Frances Farmer: No, you are not talking now! You listen. Now you can send me away and pretend I'm crazy and you can pretend I'm still your little girl who can't take care of herself. But Lillian, there is one thing that you cannot pretend any more and that is that I love you. Because I don't. I can't. Not after what you've done to me. Because I am still me. I've been trying real hard all this time to be me. And you, little sister - you haven't been any help at all.
