The fine line between persistence and stubbornness

When she encounters unspeakable insults at work, when friends stay away from her, when children "hate" her, and when her father and co-workers look down on her, perhaps, she should endure it silently and find someone to marry based on her pretty face. Live silently.

And she chose to insist on what she thought was right. In the end, her friend testified for her, the child returned to her, her father chose to stand by his daughter in the labor union that thousands of people cast aside her, and the factory gave her corresponding compensation.

In the process of perseverance, the cost is too high. If she fails, everyone will laugh at her stubbornness. So many people compromise on their sophisticated insurance choices. There is only a fine line between persistence and stubbornness. But I think the first person to eat crabs is always admirable.

Charlize Theron starred in this film, and my impression of her was extra points. I was very impressed by her performance in "The Clouds of Paris".
