2/10
No way to treat mental illness
13 June 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The last part of this movie was a total disappointment. Lucy was preparing to go away to college and leave her hoarding mother. However, the movie took a dark turn after mom had an asthma attack. Lucy found her mother passed out on the floor. Instead of calling 911, she decided to try to clean up at least nine years of hoarding. She kept saying she didn't went anyone to know the secret. But all I saw was selfishness. She placed hiding her mother's hoarding above trying to save her life. Her sister came over in response to her emergency call to her, and she lies and says that mom's alright. Why didn't she tell her sister the truth snd ask for her help. They could have called 911 and dragged their mother outside. Instead Lucy decided to burn down the house with mother inside. During all this time she's telling her mother how much she loves her. This was not my idea of love. All three children failed their mentally ill mother. Lucy may have let her mother die because of her own shame. This wasn't love. This was selfishness.
