In a movie with a unique theme, when you isolate other contacts, you can only get information from a single channel, and all that remains is to verify and strengthen that information, you are not far from being brainwashed. As a normal person, the heroine was almost brainwashed into a mental illness by her husband, which shows how powerful psychological violence, repeated indoctrination and discipline are. The male protagonist, a guy with a very gloomy expression from the beginning, a crumpled face and a half-smile fake show that he is a very vicious, unscrupulous evildoer. His way of brainwashing is very clever. When the heroine is very relaxed, he will suddenly come out unprepared: Paula, your xx is lost again. Paula, you're cranky again, take a break, don't go out. The happy occasion suddenly became troublesome, and I may wonder if it is not for a day. The human mind is inevitably in tension and self-doubt. Under the hypocritical tenderness of the heroine, everything must be persecuted according to his will. The heroine's normal emotional fluctuations in this repressed atmosphere were also used by him to reinforce the impression that "the heroine is really neurotic and unreasonable". Deprived of the opportunity and right to speak up and debate normally, everything is seen as "indecent", "hysterical", "crazy", "neurotic" when you're going to say something about your feelings. Suddenly thinking of the "mad woman in the attic", the woman's aphasia and arbitrary judgment are really pathetic. The story of the male protagonist in the movie is set against a popular background of making money, and there is also an upright male 2 who helps the female protagonist get out of the sea of misery. Mentions of psychological violence and brainwashing in the movie still exist more or less in real life. Thanks to the movie for letting me know that there is such a terrible existence in intimate relationships, no matter how intimate a person is, you should also pay attention to what he says to you, which ones are sincere advice and which are essentially domestication.
