The heroine doesn't trust others and is not good at caring about understanding others. It can even be said to be selfish. Use others to accomplish her own goals. Workaholic enjoys the power brought to her. She likes to control everything and let everyone around her act according to her preferences. man is a jerk

But in the face of her daughter's disability and the huge setbacks she suffered physically and mentally, she felt very painful, but her ability to empathize was poor, and she felt powerless and guilty. Seeing that horse was like her own daughter, its death also meant that part of her daughter died. She hoped that through healing Ma in a sense to heal her daughter She has bold ideas and is desperate to get what she wants, but she will eventually understand that rampant power will never achieve the effect of communication and understanding. How to communicate language with your daughter

I think the main line of the film is that she learns how to consider other people's feelings gently and eliminate indifference by learning "horse language", a non-verbal way of touching and communicating. Rational becomes emotional

In the "Zen and Motorcycle Maintenance Art" I recently read, I also mentioned that although big cities are densely populated, the communication relationship between people is not as close and friendly as small towns. Being more patient while facing the vast space people unconsciously deepen their relationship with each other

I have to say that the photography of the film is the best western movie I have ever seen. It should have used a very large aperture to get this oil painting-like texture.

In fact, I feel that the second half of the love scene is a bit redundant. Maybe she found peace and tranquility here, eliminating anxiety and impetuousness. For her, it is a kind of comfort that she has never experienced, but it may not belong to her life. Maybe it is also because of being tied up by the family. The responsibilities and obligations keep her from doing this. Maybe it's all too responsible for her to face.

    Tom Booker: You get born a bull you have a 90% chance of being castrated. Served up as hamburger. So on balance, I reckon I'd choose bein' a cow.
