some guesses

Stories are always stories. Who can learn the truth at that time through stories?
Camille's life is the result of her own choice. She was expecting Rodin to marry her, but was miscarried by his wife. She hated him for ignoring her and couldn't understand her pain... But Rodin actually loved her. He had his own responsibilities, his responsibilities to many people, and his own pursuit of life. It wasn't wrong that he didn't want to be tied to Camille, he did sacrifice her, abandon her. And Camille suffers from persecution delusions, perhaps because his wife often threatens to beat her, she feels extremely insecure, and suddenly thinks that Wang Xifeng killed Second Sister You unconsciously. She may have died of her own innocence and innocence, but Rose could endure, accepting Camille on the surface, threatening to hurt her behind her back, provoking her, Rose was the victim, but she managed to destroy Camille in the end , became the winner.
And Camille also felt that everything was because Rodin wanted to hurt her. Rodin had no position to hurt her. Doing so would only make him feel more guilty. Ruining a girl's youth is not enough, should he start destroying her life? Even if Rodin was narrow-minded, he should have understood that it was not her fault that he had failed her. There is absolutely no need to hurt her.
Camille herself bears the greatest responsibility. When she saw that Rodin didn't want to marry her and decided to become a sculptor like him, she just didn't understand that it was not the art itself that determined the achievement of art, but whether it was necessary to make a living from it. businessman's needs. Her brother and his family are actually using her for a better life. Camille traded the happiness of her life for her younger brother's diplomat, a famous poet, and a period of her parents' life in Paris. Rodin may have felt from the beginning that he had bought her youth. Maybe he really only loves her youthful beauty, until many years later he would rather cry at her sculpture than go to the old and broken side of her to warm her. What he loves is only the young, beautiful and innocent her at the beginning.

Camille is too hard and lonely, does not eat well, and sleeps too badly, which will lead to mental fragility. She is indeed not an ideal lover, on a spiritual level. Perhaps artists are most afraid of loneliness and intolerance, and need to make friends, like Rodin.

The power of art comes from the artist's own physical energy and spiritual energy. It is expressed in a wonderful way. It is not so great, nor so profound, nor so snobby, just a simple hobby. After watching this film, I decided to never sell paintings or give them away.
