This movie often leads me to wonder what is going to happen to "sleeping beauty"? The movie leaves you hanging with no ending. What exactly happened there? Is she dead? Does she want to die? But it clearly shows that she was alive that next morning with Clara trying to wake her. Or was it just a dream? A dream she never want to wake up from because of what she has committed herself too.
She's doing everything she doesn't want to do. Inside, she knows it but nothing is holding her back. She has no support, no one really to be there for her. And I think her missing friendship, that spark of love was never there for her to realize all the mistakes she is making.
Her quick way out? Make enough money to live. The fancy brothel is her way out. The title of the movie, "Sleeping Beauty" symbolizes her "job" in the movie. She sleeps through some kind of a mild drug while old men do what they please with her. I don't think she knows exactly what they do to her because she wakes up screaming towards the end. But what could that really mean? Why did the movie end with her sleeping still and not waking up? Overall, the movie is mysterious, causes you to think throughout. I rate it a seven which is pretty high for my taste, but if a movie makes you think, it deserves a higher score.
