Zeena question
I haven't read the book, so I'm not sure how Zeena is portrayed. Does she have a physical illness or is it one of a psychological nature? Is she a hypochondriac?
I am asking because it seems that at certain times in the movie, her coughing seems to appear when she feels a loss of control or becomes uncomfortable in a situation.
It sounds like she doesn't want to get better. If I recall correctly, she and Ethan were going to move to the city where he would get a promising job. However, Zeena's illness kept them on the farm. Would't a move to the city be more beneficial for her, as the options for medical care be greater?
I really liked the movie and do have sympathy for all characters involved.
