Miller's Girl Ending Explained
Cairo gets very angry when she's rejected by Miller. As payback, she sends a copy of their short story to the principal. This leads to Miller being questioned and things going against him. He loses his job, and his wife leaves him when she finds out how close he is with Cairo. The movie then jumps ahead many years, showing Miller visiting Cairo at university. They both realize how they've changed each other's lives, and there's a hint that Miller might use their story for a new piece of writing. The movie ends with this idea.
The main point of "Miller’s Girl" isn't clear. It seems unsure whether to show Cairo as someone seeking revenge or to blame Mr. Miller for his actions. The movie tries to add complexity to what could have been a straightforward situation. However, it also reinforces the idea that teenage girls are often blamed for relationships where there's a power imbalance, which can be harmful.

Miller's Girl Plot
Cairo Sweet is an 18-year-old girl living on her own in a grand mansion in Tennessee. Her parents, who work as lawyers, are currently on a business trip while she finishes her final year of high school. Cairo is enrolled in a creative writing class taught by Jonathan Miller.
She impresses him with her extensive knowledge of literature, including familiarity with Miller's book. Cairo needs to write an essay for Yale University's college application. The topic is "the greatest accomplishment so far," but she's having trouble finding something important to write about.
And it's causing her a lot of stress. A friend suggests that Cairo should try to get closer to Miller, the teacher, to add some excitement to her life and maybe find something meaningful to write about in her essay. Then she write an essay about the relationship between a teacher and a student.
Miller says Cairo's story is not okay and asks her to write it again. She feels hurt by Miller's decision, so she sends the story to the school's vice principal, Joyce Manor, to get back at him. She wants to show that there might be something wrong going on between them.
The vice principal talks to both Cairo and Miller separately about their relationship. Then, miller, being the adult, takes all the blame and gets suspended. This makes Fillmore, Miller's friend, upset because he thinks Miller doesn't know how to set boundaries as a teacher. Miller also argues with his wife, Beatrice, about the situation, and it makes him realize and express his long-held frustrations about their marriage.
At last, Cairo decided to speak at a school board meeting. The movie doesn't reveal what happens afterward, but she aims to harm Miller's reputation further. She sees this act as a significant accomplishment and uses it as inspiration to write her Yale admission letter, highlighting Miller's wrongdoing.
