In order to increase the impact of the film, a lot of plots have been deleted. Is it also a contemptible hypocrisy to fabricate the so-called "truth of human nature" and the so-called "reasonable evil" for oneself?
According to Wikipedia's actual records, this Gertrude was a sadist who was poor, had no self-respect, and had a messed up life. Her abuse is open and dignified, and she will never falsely use the name of "education". In the end, she and her family even prepared to throw Sylvia's body... Sylvia tried to escape after overhearing, and was tortured to death. The so-called upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked. The children raised by Gertrude are used to this kind of abuse scene since childhood. How can they be so scared that their eyes are watery like in the film? On the contrary, the pleasure of sadism makes them very useful.
Such a woman is poor, neurotic, sluggish, and her life is a mess... Someone dares to entrust her beloved daughter to her! ...Parents, oversight so far!
Also, Wikipedia mentions that Sylvia's sister asked their own sister for help, and her own sister made up a lie that they thought they just wanted to live with her. In the film, Sylvia never ran away. Her sister was intimidated by a few words that were unrealistic at first glance. Is there a person as mentally retarded as fifteen or sixteen?
Therefore, why do you need to whitewash the peace, the truth is so simple: the American family is weak! Relatives are like passers-by, passers-by are not people!
