British woman Edna (Judy Davis) travels to India with her future mother-in-law, Mrs. Moore. The trip is not only to visit Edna's fiance, Lonnie, who is a magistrate in India, but also to expand her horizons. Edna's mind is not on the communication activities between white people, but more eager to understand the exotic customs of India, so she gets to know the local doctor Ace, who is full of pure admiration for the British, although she is occasionally disappointed, but He still marveled at Mrs. Moore's grace, often embarrassing himself by helping white men out of sieges. In order to satisfy Edna's wish, the kind Ace acted as a guide to lead Edna and Mrs. Moore to visit the Malabar cave in the suburbs. Unexpectedly, the two ladies felt very uncomfortable in the cave, and Edna ran out with all the scars on her body. The trip caused an uproar. The British believed that Ace wanted to do something wrong with Edna and imprisoned her. Ace's fate is now in Edna's hands.

Admitting mistakes and forgiving enemies are both worthy of respect. There is a relationship between Gus and Ace, otherwise how could they have been unable to let go of her initial accusations? Does love or not, forgive or not, accept or not allude to India's relationship with Britain?

Sure enough, it was Maurice Jarre's soundtrack, and several of his collaborations with David Lean left a deep impression on me. The echo can be either a wave of desire or a judgment from God. In other words, the two are originally the same thing, and both come from the desire of the heart. Miss Guth's echo is her shame, fear and desire, and Mrs. Moore's echo is that there are too many unanswerable needs. People demand love, tolerance and responsibility, and they are calling for an omnipotent god. So the physical Mrs. Moore perished because of the burden, and was reincarnated in the spirit of Miss Guss. At that moment, the desires of the two canceled each other out and returned to peace.

Adela Quested: I do so hate mysteries.
Richard Fielding: We English do.
Mrs. Moore: I rather like mysteries - but I rather dislike muddles.
Richard Fielding: A mystery is only a high-sounding term for a muddle. Me and the Professor know that India is a muddle.
Professor Godbhole: Agreed, I am sorry to say.
