1. Daughter who has lost the ability to love
Eva and Charlotte have a high degree of resemblance, which subtly constitutes a continuation of the story, the endless cycle of reincarnation. Both are equally deprived of childhood affection and thus have an inability to love, which is imposed on those who love them.
But the two coping mechanisms are different: Charlotte wears a mask, she knows how to show love to hide her actually cold heart, and win the love of others by doing so. This is the most dangerous way of what can be called hypocrisy, causing many people to delusion and willingly fall into her trap.
Why does she need so much love?
At the beginning of Eva's diary, she wrote "I need someone who loves me before I know what I am" (generally). The love of others for you proves that you are not worthless. At the same time, the trauma caused by childhood neglect also triggers the pursuit of love. She needs love to live by it.
However, as a person who has lost the ability to love, is he sensitive enough to be loved? Are they empathic?
In the end, when the bubble of love's abundance burst, her ego was still hollow. Love, if understood according to Zhu Zi's approach to morality, should be overflowing from the love in one's own heart. If you live by the love of others, you still have nothing.
The image of Eva suddenly reminded me of Eileen Chang.
The girl in a white dress opened the huge door with a cup of coffee, and the camera shot outside the door to form an embedded picture-like scene. The girl was expelled by her mother's gentle words, and she closed the door without saying a word. The love that comes from the expectation of love and the adoration of the mother turns into doubt. She looked at her body in the mirror and was picky in every possible way.
Eileen Chang always loves to mention her mother's favorite girl image in "Little Reunion", and she also reveals a bit of irony and sadness: she is not what her mother expected.
They were troubled by inferiority complex, and became more and more eager and anxious for perfection, and finally realized that it was only their mother who didn't love her.
Love is endurance, including enduring your flaws. Daughter can't recognize what kind of person she should be to satisfy her mother, and then she can't recognize herself, and even resents herself.
In the movie, the two pretended to be affectionate mother and daughter at the beginning, then tore off the masks and gave each other a monologue, blamed each other, and finally ended in sorrow.
Like repressed prisoners, a fierce indictment before the death rack, both are walking dead, living in endless pain and struggle.
Living and acting have become burdens.
