the crazy love in Beloved by Toni Morrison

Hi, rasshion. I have read the book , but failed to watch the movie for its gothic atmosphere which frightened me a lot. however, I have so many questions in the book that I can't understand it at all. Is Beloved Sethe's real daughter who was killed by Sethe??? Why Beloved disappeared in th end??? And she is pregnant??? Paul D's child??? what's symbol of this???

I think Beloved was the like the spirit of Sethe's daughter that had been haunting them. She wanted to know her mother but was angry because she killed her. When Denver told the lady she worked with what was going on, a bunch of the people in town came to the house and performed something like an exorcism and got rid of her. And she was pregnant by Paul D, although I have no idea what that would have led to. The movie may be easier to take since you read the book first. I didn't know what to expect going in. I had to watch it more than once, and I still haven't figured everything out. The movie is kind of long but It's good once you get past the weird stuff. It follows the book pretty closely, I've heard, but I'm sure some parts are cut out. If you get the chance, you should see it.
