McAdams' performance is undoubtedly overwhelming. She succumbs and despises. She fulfills the expectations of the public and is spiritually independent. She witnesses the desolate world and accepts the hopeful world. It is deliberate and natural. It is joyful, full of freedom without sadness, ready to release nature to do what must be done. This character is very bright, swift and overly repressed, forbearance and eager to move, like a hand that wants to touch and then withdraw sideways, and that is the key to this film. She is married and pregnant, what should she do. You can simply forget the past and make a dewy love affair, but feel free to review those temptations that you came and went on the side of the bluestone road, the soft palms under the birch tree, the lingering deep kisses by the blue brick wall, you still I have to admit, when you see her, you know that you have been thinking about her.

Disobedience quotes

  • Ronit Krushka: Esti, do you think I should go back early?

    Esti Kuperman: No... no. No, I don't think you should leave at all.

  • [first lines]

    Rav Krushka: In the beginning, Hashem made three types of creatures, the angels, the beasts, and the human beings. The angels, He made from His pure word. The angels have no will to do evil. They cannot deviate for one moment from His purpose. The beasts have only their instincts to guide them. They, too, follow the commands of their maker. The Torah states that Hashem spent almost six whole days of creation fashioning these creatures. Then, just before sunset, He took a small quantity of earth and from it He fashioned man and woman. An afterthought? Or His crowning achievement? So, what is this thing? Man? Woman? It is a being with the power to disobey. Alone among all the creatures we have free will. We hang suspended between the clarity of the angels and the desires of the beasts. Hashem gave us choice, which is both a privilege and a burden. We must then choose the tangled life we live.
