So, let me tell ya ’bout this movie, The Eternal Daughter. Now, it’s a bit spooky, but also kinda sad too. There’s this lady named Julie Hart, and she takes her old mother, Rosalind, to this big ol’ hotel. But here’s the thing, this hotel ain’t no regular one. It’s all quiet, empty, and a bit eerie, ya know? The kind where you feel like somethin’ strange is always ’round the corner.
Julie, she’s a bit lost, like she don’t know what she’s doin’ with herself. She’s supposed to be a filmmaker, but seems like her mind’s stuck, can’t figure out what to do. So, she brings her mama to this hotel where they used to stay when she was a kid, thinkin’ maybe this will help her come up with some ideas. But the thing is, Julie’s also got another plan. She’s secretly recordin’ her mama’s stories about the past, hopin’ it’ll help her write somethin’ about her mama’s life. I guess that’s what folks call a ‘creative block’ or somethin’ fancy like that.
As they stay there, Julie starts seein’ strange things. At night, the place feels haunted, like you ain’t alone even though no one else is there. The shadows and sounds, they play tricks on her. But here’s the thing that got me real confused. The more Julie talks to her mama, the more you start wonderin’ if her mama’s even really there. It’s like, is she imaginin’ all this? The movie doesn’t make it easy for ya to figure out what’s real and what ain’t.
There’s this scene where Julie brings her mama a birthday cake, and you’d think it’s a nice moment, right? But even that feels strange. Like, somethin’ ain’t right. It’s almost like Julie’s tryin’ to connect with her mama, but she can’t. It’s like she’s seein’ a ghost, but not in the way you’d think, more like the ghost of her own memories or somethin’. The hotel, it makes ya think about all the things we hold onto from the past, and how sometimes we get stuck there, not knowin’ how to move forward.
Now, without givin’ too much away, the end of this film, well, it leaves you thinkin’. The story don’t wrap up all neat like you might expect. Julie’s left to face her own ghosts, both in her mind and in her heart. She’s tryin’ to figure out who she is, and what her relationship with her mama really means. The whole movie’s like one big question, but it don’t give ya clear answers. It’s kinda sad, really, like you feel for Julie, but also a bit frustrated ’cause you wanna know what’s really goin’ on.
In the end, The Eternal Daughter ain’t just about ghosts and spooky hotels. It’s more about memories, regrets, and how we deal with the past. Julie’s stuck, tryin’ to figure out her life, but maybe the only way forward is to let go of some of them old memories. But that’s hard, ain’t it? Especially when they’re tied to someone you love so much, like her mama.
So, that’s pretty much what happens in the movie. It’s one of them slow, thoughtful kinda films, the kind that makes ya think long after it’s done. Not everyone’s gonna like it, but if ya like a story that makes ya feel a bit haunted yourself, this one’s got it.
