Delicate and tough, that's how I would rate such a film. I couldn't write anything for a long time after watching it, just like the movie itself has a lot of things left unfinished. Black nail polish, yoga balls, apple seeds, very stream of consciousness, all of which are connected later, from the complete nail polish that gives birth to a warm child, to the tearing and shattering of the nail polish after the child's death; On his wife, the yoga ball that was slowly deflated by her cigarette butt; the apple seeds spit out from the apple gnawing on the subway, and the apple seeds that finally sprouted from the refrigerator when the dust settled. Martha's character is very gritty, she doesn't seem to need anyone during the whole self-healing process, and no one actually helps her, which makes her feel a little indifferent, but I really appreciate this kind of Almost inhuman self-immersion, how many people in real life can do it, how many women can do it? Almost impossible as long as you are connected with people. At the same time, she is also very firm in herself. From her dispute with her mother, she expressed in court that the death of her daughter was not the fault of the midwife. I do not agree with saying that this is forgiveness or redemption, because everything from the beginning to the end is only about herself. In contrast, the image of the husband is much weaker. He was meticulous and quick to meet the needs of his wife when giving birth, and he was grief-stricken and tolerant of his wife when he lost his daughter. At this point, I think he is a good husband, but the situation has changed rapidly. Re-drinking, lying, cheating, not a single shot showed that he felt guilty, not even the slightest pause when he took his mother-in-law's check. At the same time, the wife went to the bar to drink and dance and kiss the men, but when she got further, she stopped and took a taxi home. There's no need to compare who is more grieving, but the wife has always been in the concept of doing the right thing. Another thing that touches me in the whole movie is that we are a team, maybe the true meaning of marriage is like this, not just husband and wife, but also partners. Sometimes when we get together, some scars are too big for us to overcome together. This is not even just a value. You can't find a specific reason, and you shouldn't deny it. It just happened, and you can only go on your own way.
