i said before, too, that i think the torture was so excessive, as far as what was shown, so that the viewer is tortured as well. a couple of minutes and a startling picture of what she looked like in the end would have sufficed in getting across that she was beaten really badly for a long time, but showing it happen for that long makes the viewer feel like they've gone through it with her, i think
Life is a bitch, but she's totally doable.
