There is a difference in approaches between Grace and Mrs.Mills. Grace takes the position that she knows whatis right and wrong. The movie cllmax, is when grace tells her children, "Idon't know, I am no wiser than you." When they ask her, "Where are we?"
All through the movie, and presumably through her married life, Grace always had the right answer for everything. Grace knew the one correct meaning for any passage in the Bible.
Grace told the visiting spirit of her husband, "You did not go off to war to fight, you left to get away from ME!" This seems to be argumentative at first blush, but given Grace's uncmpromising style, there may have been more of a revelation in those words. Mrs. Mills tried to find ways to be lovingly accommodating within general principles of kindness.
