The heroine Thelma was hanged because she killed a policeman, so should the policeman be killed? He stole the money she had saved for a long time to treat his son's eye disease and slandered her, but he just loved his wife too much, in order to pay the mortgage, he was afraid of her leaving; Selma wanted to kill the policeman, no, She just wanted to get her money back, she was weak, she was desperate, the police refused to let go of her money, they gave her a gun that they didn't dare to commit suicide, and if they wanted to get the money back, they would kill me. She was out of control and couldn't control herself.
Besides, she lives in her own fantasy. She is born with a talent for music, and all sounds can be turned into notes in her heart. Because of her mother's love, for the sake of her son's light, she worked hard to survive, saved a little money for surgery, and it happened again. In an accident, the pure and kind wishes of an American Czech immigrant were ruthlessly crushed by fate.
There is no villain, no good or bad, I even think all the characters in it are so warm and kind. Even the cop and his wife were so kind-hearted at the beginning, giving her candy and buying a bicycle for her son, the cop was really greedy, but you can't blame him, because you can also see his helplessness and despair . Just a bunch of little people struggling at the bottom of their destiny.
Selma is too kind, innocent, innocent, and strong in appearance, but still powerless against fate. She is blind, but her ears are still good; she beats her son because she loves him too much; she daydreams, imagining the musicals she performed, thinking of her favorite actors, paranoid simplicity, with a beautiful yearning for music, Step by step towards death, the death is a bit unclear, but it is inevitable.
In fact, such a good movie cannot be described, nor can it be watched a second time. It is a little beautiful, but it is extremely true and cruel. Every time Selma sang in it, it was so heartbreaking and touching, especially the scene before her death, which was so cruel that it was impossible to watch it any longer. But it's still a rare good movie.
