I have a paper due REALLY soon, I do have a thesis and have done my research, I just can’t seem to flesh out this last detail

that film was very disturbing to me, but very impactful – still don’t quite understand the question though – if anything, the main character (Annie) was a weak female who sacrificed the welfare of her daughter for a man’s love – the daughter (Bone) ended up being the stronger female, because she was able to walk away from her mother in order to survive. maybe something along that line will help you – weak mother willing to accept any kind of man, even one that would abuse her daugther vs. strong daughter who is willing to go without a mother in her life in order to live an abuse-free future.
