Post Mona Lisa Smile theme

The theme from, Mona Lisa Smile, that I favored the most was the fact that it was ironic how someone that you could hate so much would be the one that you love. Throughout the movie, Betty despised Ms. Watson, writing hateful newspaper articles about her and towards her teaching. She would always try to make Ms. Watson feel bad and take over her pride. In the end, she missed Ms. Watson and wanted her to stay with her. She realized that Ms. Watson was a great teacher and friend, helping herself to find her true self. This theme portrayed a lot of hatred and then love towards the end of the film.
