She has no lovers, no friends or any social activities. So the psychiatrist suggested to her: "Living in bed every day will not make you happy, you need to go out and start a meaningful relationship." He gave her a happy list to try to complete.
The female protagonist is obviously not deep in the world, but she is smart but extraordinarily straightforward and simple. She seems to know the dark side of society, but she doesn't fully understand how to deal with it. She tries to start a relationship, but meets a scumbag again. On Christmas Eve, her loneliness and helplessness were catalyzed by events such as a psychiatrist's incestuous relationship and her father's new relationship.
The whole movie is rather bland and has nothing to do with Harvard. The small fragments are connected together to form a girl's growth story. The story itself is not too attractive and creative, but you may find yourself in the heroine. The shadow is not a waste of time.
I often think about the real definition of maturity, because I don't want to become a so-called "adult." After reading it, I got a little enlightenment. I can understand the heroine, because I often have a sense of justice, and I have to tell the truth and black and white. These thoughts and behaviors may be naive, just like the evaluation of the heroine by the two scumbags in the movie (don't act like a child), but they are not necessarily wrong. We can see the darkness, but always look to the light.
I think the best ending for people like us should be: know the world without being worldly, and keep the calendar smooth and naive.
