I think the pills were some kind of anti anxiety pills, just feel like they both were very stressed people, but that Lydia kind of brought it onto Sharon, by cheating and the whole scandal.

About the girl, I just think with that whole public scandal and them breaking up it was kind of logical that the girl would stay with Sharon. But as often happens with divorces one parent kind of wants the child for themselves to spite the other parent. And the public will always choose a side and so will the court or whoever decides that s\*\*\*. There is no father here, but often the father is f\*\*\*ed up in these kind of situation if there still is a big fight between the parents, most of the time the mothers side is chosen even if unfairly so.

I like that this film has so many subtle and unanswered things that are open to interpretation in it, makes you think about it way longer. Don't often see that in many modern films. Feel like Todd Field learned from working with Kubrick in that regard.

Are we sure that the pills Sharon takes are the same ones Lydia takes? They mention the pills Sharon takes by name and they're used to treat high blood pressure and/or a whole host of heart related problems including arrhythmias. I was under the impression that's what she takes them for considering she says, "it's racing."

That could be indeed, I thought the heart was racing had to do with her having an anxiety attack or something, did not notice the name of the pills tbh.

@Marble @ANTI

For some reason I thought the pills was gonna lead to something bigger cause in the beginning when Sharon needed them and Tar had the new subscription she just got from her assistant she told Sharon that she had found them in the drawer when that wasn’t true. Then later she reminds Sharon to take them I’m probably looking too deep into it tho

Brilliant

iirc the book reading/live-streaming scene happens after the tar/krista suicide connection becomes public so olga prolly caught on to what tar was doing w her and just adding fuel to the controversy surrounding tar

also in their first lunch meeting tar didn’t know about some like women’s rights day or some s\*\*\* and that was prolly a red flag for olga/she might have been cautious from the jump.

incredible s***

Yeah she did

APARTMENT FOR SALE
