multiple pauses

17:57 I can't bear to see half of the evil in the American countryside. It's too hard to


watch. Everyone can do anything to her, and in the end she gets hurt a lot and no one gives her a hug. Human nature is inherently evil and has no bottom line. Never test human nature.


18:24 There is no way out of being abused, I should have known. Whether it was rescued, blocked, saved, or sent to parents, everything turned out to be false. How could there be such a smooth, bullied person, how could it really help her.


18:28 Even wanted to blame her sister, why she didn't help her, why she was so cowardly, but what else could be said.


Sylvia, who returned to the midnight soul, wouldn't blame her, so why would she.


18:31 The

wicked girl who was abused and died even put on makeup when she appeared in court, and calmly said that because of her psychological and physical problems, she has too many children, sick


18:34 There is no reason, no stimulation.

Becoming a serial killer requires a source of excitement, and Sylvia is so innocent.


18:36 guilty!guilty!guilty!


18:39 just jail for first degree murder

even though I'm not religious I still hope they go to hell

and the girl who was tortured to death doesn't know how painful she was before she died, she just wants to get calm.



After watching the whole movie, I couldn't watch it because of the discomfort and nausea many times during the period. The child is innocent, soft and weak, in the face of any force.



19:38 In the three years of college, I have seen 300+ movies, not only 400+, but none of the movies made me pause and calm down. Many people say that hard candy is the antidote to the sins in the American countryside, but I think rational people are very clear that the two cannot be compared, let alone the antidote. "Beauty" is sin and truth. And "Water" is yy, the strength and strategy are ten times different, and it is difficult to compete, not to mention the psychological factors of age. There are too many bugs in "Water", it's just yy, it can even be said that it is the yy of the girls who are bullied, and they want to compete.

And "Beauty", not to mention it is an adaptation of a true story (the facts are even more cruel), all kinds of people in it, their appearance and character, are so "real", everyone can find a template, in our Beside them, in the psychology books, their behavior, one after another, in that dark basement, Sylvia was indeed tortured to death on 1956.10.26.

everyone is guilty God is right, at least in this movie.

    8 points. Based on true events. It is precisely because the love for the eldest daughter cannot be released that the boarding mother in the play transfers her hatred to the innocent protagonist. Countless adults and children ignore the abuse and even enjoy it. Their selfishness and indifference are outrageous! The movie presents the evil of human nature after the enlarged consciousness of group sex nakedly in front of every audience, torturing everyone's heart!

    The film is based on real events that happened in Indiana, USA in 1965, and the filming is mainly based on court records at that time. Cruel evil, very shocking! The actions of the children, in particular, are pathetic and horrific. Catherine Keener as the villain did a good job.

  • Sylvia Likens: Reverend Bill used to say, "For every situation God always has a plan." I guess I'm still trying to figure out what that plan was.
