I assume the light sensitivity was due to her head injury

I think she was addicted to morphine which could contribute to light sensitivity also lack of sleep can also create more sensitivity

Her aversion to light starts early in her life. I think it’s a metaphor for her desire to stay hidden and secretive.

Alcohol helps loosen things and when you're creating an intricate web of lies etc that is very dangerous

In the book, the narrator says that Faye made sure none of her girls ever got sick and they had checkups regularly, so not sure I buy the syphilis thing either

I think it’s important to note in her relationship with alcohol that when she becomes violent and cruel, it is with a person who wanted to force her to drink alcohol. I am not sure that that behavior would emerge if she ever chose to serve herself alcohol in another setting.

I feel like her fear of the light is because it exposes her dark nature ….goodness will go towards the light she is almost repelled by it which is another way of demonstrating that she is evil by nature

It’s less about looking “old” and more about not looking like a child anymore. The “sweet dollface” was a very effective weapon.

I would also think that as a sexual assault victim (in the movie), alcohol makes her less able to defend herself from repeated assault/rape

she was abused in the darkness. maybe a symbol for sometimes we become what hurt us.

I know in the book she starts wearing gloves specifically because the arthritis in her hands makes them look old and deformed, which she is trying to hide. One of her biggest tools to manipulate was her beauty

She has arthritis and with that systemic inflammation comes light sensitivity.

Cathy's aversion to alcohol, is because it lets her guard down and starts acting on impulse when influenced by it. It ruins her image to be secretive. Her aversion to light is a metaphor of shame built up through the course of time. She was fine before, but killing Faye disturbed her peace of mind more than she thought she could handle. Stop reading everything literally.

not syphilis- she does have arthritis and there are types that do affect eyes

the type of arthritis that she has, with the swelling and the redness visible on the skin is most likely autoimmune which explains alcohol intolerance, light sensitivity, etc. I also agree with others who said that she may have had syphilis

The black brothel reminds me of a Norwegian black cathedral: mysterious, secret, but also feeling more a part of the earth, terrestrial, dark-natured, and base.

Elizabeth Crocker :
alcohol is called "spirts". As it brings out who people truly are. some are aggressive, some happy, and some sad.I think the vlack represents her hiding from the truth, the light. Light exposes and light doesnt conceal what is hidden. In the middle episode. Lee gave us the understand in simple terms. "The greatest terror a child can have is that he isn't loved. Rejection is the hell he fears. And with rejection comes anger. And with anger, a need for revenge. And that is the story of mankind." thus line tells you about the whole story here.

Would you ever perhaps be open to a discussion in the DMs over Cathy’s character?😭😭 I just have so many things to say and chat about with someone else who actually knows what they’re talking about.
