The reversal is not thorough enough

Strictly speaking, the three protagonists in the whole movie use morality to demand that there is no "good person"!

Emily: I killed my father when I was young, and I killed my sister when I was older! Directly violated the law!

Stephanie: It was a bit silly at first, but as the plot goes deeper, you will find that she is actually much more complicated than her appearance. She has a relationship with her own brother, and she is still in love, which indirectly caused the death of both her husband and brother! After that, he found out the secret of Emily's life experience and the truth about his death, and finally arrested Emily and put him in jail! If the movie had a reversal at the end, she designed to kill her brother and husband because she was greedy for insurance money, and deliberately seduce Sean, the plot would be even more exciting!

Sean: On the surface, it is suave, but in fact, he has been weak in his marriage with Emily! After going to bed with Stephanie, she still had some confusion with her female student!

The overall tension of watching the plot can’t let go of it!

    The whole crew is rude, yeah

    Anna's acting is too pretentious. Queen S looks down on the world's aura, she should be matched with a restrained opponent, how could she lose to such an obvious green tea as Anna! The boring and noisy Anna can actually become an internet celebrity, as well as male fans... It seems that it is not only our country that has been degraded in aesthetics...

A Simple Favor quotes

  • Diana Hyland: She never let me paint her face except for this one. I've never seen such a beautiful girl want to be so invisible or just completely vanish. But you know what, it takes money to vanish, and so she took everything that she could from me. You know how I would paint you? Beautific. Like, like a fucking saint.

    Stephanie: I get that a lot.

    Diana Hyland: You should embrace it. People love saints.

    Stephanie: Yeah, after they're dead.

  • Stephanie: [Referring to Davis and Chris dying in the car crash] It's my fault. I'm the reason they're both dead.

    Emily: No. Hey, don't do that. People, people do terrible things for their own fucked-up reasons. That's on them, not on you.

    Stephanie: Yeah. I miss him.

    Emily: Which one?

    Stephanie: Both. I'm lonely. I think loneliness probably kills more people than cancer.
