Maybe she should have kept her seventh veil

I just saw this movie for the first time and am no doubt transposing current standards onto 1945-era sensibilities. But what sane woman would choose the guy who battered her fingers with a cane, thereby not only hurting her physically but potentially ending her career as a pianist?

She chooses that loser over the two other guys who may have wanted to marry her? And this is considered to be a great psychological breakthrough in her journey towards sanity and wellness?

Talk about being a victim of the Stockholm syndrome! That is where a kidnapped individual begins to identify with the kidnapper as a friend or as a lover.

That poor woman clearly never got well and the movie ended probably at the point where her life was really going to become a nightmare.
