If there is no Larta, there is no simple John to bring his beloved woman Larta to this noble manor, there will be no point of view of this film, and there will be no "resurrection" of John's father at all. Larta is a pebble that stirs up the ripples of conflict that upsets the balance of a boring aristocratic life.
The biggest highlight of the film is the conflict between Larta's free personality and the environment. "Spontaneity" is an ethical derogatory term for Larta's behavior from aristocratic positions, mainly from the image of Larta in the eyes of John's mother, the head of the family. But this just shows Larta's daring to love, dare to hate, free-spirited personality, her adventurous temperament and her passion for life. Even though her marriage has been unfortunate, the brimming vitality of her body is hindered. No - yes, racing, riding, and living independently. In that era, when a woman was able to stand shoulder to shoulder with men, she was challenging male power and fighting for equality. She just wanted to come out of the haze of life and prove her worth. John's youthful simplicity can comfort her past wounds, and her unconcerned and unscrupulous love can make her free from the many intrigues, from the many temptations and traps caused by jealousy, rumors and possessiveness. Get spiritual liberation, keep a straightforward and simple.
In fact, people should be frank with each other in the first place, and there is no need to live in the mask of symbols, even if people can’t take off such a mask for a while - just as socializing has become an expedient that people have to do, and people are subject to social regulations and become a social role - but people can at least have a completely natural and casual living space in the way of life they choose.
