If I had seen this movie a few years ago, I would have thought the heroine had a good ending. Even with so many changes in her life, she at least gained the "freedom" that was largely given her by her philosophical training. Yet I watch the movie now and I feel sad for her. I think there are too few things that "reason" can do ("reason", or "reason" in the philosophically defined, non-emotional, narrow sense). Reason does not fully fulfill life. A free life is not as good as a life full of relationships with other people. At least that's what I'm thinking at this stage.
Even, to some extent, the so-called "rationality" suppressed the heroine's emotional catharsis. The husband left ruthlessly. Although the heroine behaved so indifferently, she secretly cried when she was alone. Visible philosophy did not make her aloof. What suppressed her emotions? If the emotion is released, it is probably not decent. How can a philosopher be like ordinary people? So, I want to suppress, to show that I am very detached, very unrestrained.
The heroine is not strong. She just pretended to be strong. A woman who has since demoted herself to the age of 40 can not look forward to love, she has given up even the struggle for her husband's departure, and she does not dare to show the weakness and inferiority of a woman who is about to enter old age in front of anyone.
future thing? What will her future life be like? Is it also possible to live as lonely as her mother? Life in the future seems to be filled with emptiness.
In contrast, the heroine played by Huppert in "Her" may be more powerful.
