It seems as if he knows she's having a rough time and only wants to help her as she seems lost and uninterested in anything in life but the mention of death.
To others she may seem as if she is a normal person without a chemical imbalance in her brain making her struggle internally but do not dismiss her as if she is faking or just wants attention.
I know many people from this 1950's era would disagree with this statement but mental illnesses should be taken more seriously and should have a fragile approach.
At the next part of the scene they show this woman's wrists that are covered in bandages but the interviewer does not ask about them right away only later in the film.
He goes onto ask questions about her personal life, what she does in the day, how she feels, and if she eats enough.
When explaining how she hurt herself she does not seems to feel embarrassed nor feels any guilt for inflicting pain on herself.
The way this woman speaks as if she is empty minded and just feels no excitement on any subject she talks about not even the hobbies she does during the day.
The only time she ever smiles is when she explains how she wants to try a new place, which means to see what life is like after death.
My heart truly breaks for this woman and I hope she got the help she needed back in the 50's era and if not. I hope she is in peace in heaven.
