The movie "Sleep with the Enemy" is an early work of Julia Roberts, and the plot is not charming. The husband Martin in the play is a paranoid, control freak, and a typical mental patient, but he lives as an ordinary person and married a young and beautiful wife. The supposedly good life has evolved into a thriller.
Therefore, the abuse and beating were controlled, and the personality abuse that was added to the heroine escalated step by step until she couldn't bear it. She sought opportunities to cleverly create the illusion of drowning and escaped. She wanted to escape fear and live her own life. He sniffed her with the keenness of a madman, and pursued her until he found her and her lover and raised his gun.
However, the heroine’s inner strength helped her at a critical juncture, and it was her turn to aim the gun at him-Martin who was approaching to persuade her to give up resisting, she reported the case to the police station before pulling the trigger: please get to the XXX location as soon as possible , I just killed an intruder. Then there was a crisp gunfire, and three bullets shot into the devil's body. Her nightmare was completely over.
The words of the heroine's mother are the finishing touches of the play: You will be fine, because you have a talent, and no one can destroy it-you own yourself.
She owns herself. This is such a wonderful gift. No one can conquer her, get her to domesticate her, and whether she has suffered or struggled, she will always be herself. She can be wiped out, but she will not be defeated, and she is the only one who can defeat herself.

    I have forgotten how young Roberts in Pretty Woman is. until I saw this movie. It's really amazing~ Young enough to overwhelm the audience to prop up a film that is too deliberate. Of course, the role of the husband is also very hard~
