Forced to marry a landlord, under the surveillance of servants and neglected by her family, this story is more or less a bittersweet drama or a plot setting of a house intrigue in the East, while Lady Macbeth plays a violent drama.
The first encounter between the groom Sebastian and the hostess Catherine sparks, and the relationship progresses like firewood. Catherine's suppressed emotions burst out during her husband's business trip. All this was seen by the maid Anna, and gradually by the manor in the manor. People realize that the secret can no longer be hidden. In this simple story, passion explains all the motives, but what I find interesting is the delicate relationship between the hostess and the maid. Catherine rescues Anna, who was molested by the groom in the stable. Anna is grateful but trapped in the feudal atmosphere of the manor and her black identity. She is fearful, vigilant and silent to Catherine. When she is picking mushrooms, she meets the groom. Sebastian's words were full of contempt for the relationship between the two of them. It was like the embodiment of the obedient and even the guardian under the system. Catherine once asked Anna to sit next to her to try to win over her father-in-law. In the end, he did not cross the psychological threshold of servant (slave) and even stood on the opposite side of Catherine as an informer at the end of the story. Catherine's background is very little, but we can see her desperate attitude from the censure of her father-in-law, the contempt of her husband and the discussion in the town, and her desperate attitude. She repeatedly rushed out of the house and walked in the wilderness. Above is her resistance to this silence suppressing the world.
Knowing a little about the mentality of criminals, you can see that most crimes are desperate and desperate, and the stories of enlightenment often make criminals subdue the law, but Catherine successfully escaped the punishment by planting it, which is intriguing. Anna and Sebastian left with shackles, a submissive, a coward, their thinking did not break out of the society's stereotypes (dare to cheat, not to elope). The vulgar and oppressive environment made Catherine, who longed for freedom, reduced to a prisoner-like existence, and Catherine launched a serial assassination in the most violent way. Some people say that this is an allegory of gender politics. I prefer to understand it as a short story of violence and violence. The heroine Katherine is an opportunist from beginning to end. She tries to cover up the only things she desperately wants to keep, including men. At the most dangerous moment, she even killed the innocent and betrayed the man to save herself, and she also tried to survive. From this point of view, Catherine seems to have a little shadow of the country Lady Macbeth.
It is worth mentioning that the performance of the actors in it seems to be very good. The black maid Anna is impressive. Anna is a tragic character. The description and plot about her are all to the point, but she plays a role in the promotion of the plot. To a great extent, as a black slave, being oppressed and indoctrinated with feudal ideology, from peeping from the bedroom to trembling at the murder scene, Anna shows us the dark reality of society beyond the main line of cheating. Rather, we are more like this maid Anna when we watch the film. We don’t say anything when we encounter problems. We obey the rules. We judge others from a moral perspective. sacrifice for this era.
