But aside from that, this movie is really hard to make people laugh about.
I don't want to elevate the film to a political point of view. What I want to say is that it only expresses the involuntary and unwilling persistence of a few people in a big environment. Sins may not be justly judged, but this does not mean that the injured person will forget it; love may not be expressed in time, but this does not mean that time is enough to wash its concentration. The purpose of this film is not to punish evil and promote good, not to redeem oneself, but to persevere.
Is it really good to forget? But who can really forget it?
Morales may seem like an unimportant supporting role at first, but in the end, he is the real center of the film. When he told Esposito about his life in the past 25 years, his face was cold, as if the scars in the past had been diluted by the years, and his tone was also cold, as if those anger and unwillingness had been frozen early. But the look in his eyes betrayed him - it was a calm look that truly had no regrets. Perhaps there is only one thing that makes Esposito unable to let go. When Liliana's clear smile photos are still in close proximity to him day after day, how can a person suffer the torture of memories to forget? So the mystery expands, the clues are restored, and the truth is revealed - the lost love can no longer be recovered, but Morales, after all, he has returned the true justice in the way he always believed.
Maybe you want to say that in the past 25 years, he has never really let go of his heart, and can only live in a self-constructed cage, trapping the murderer and locking all his exits at the same time. However, at least he is worthy of, at least has no regrets, at least does not have to pretend to be happy.
What's more, it is impossible to forget at all, at least Esposito can't forget it. As he said repeatedly to Morales - it's not just your life, it's mine too. The trauma left by this case is already the same as the unforgettable feelings for Irenre. No matter the time, the location, the identity and appearance, or the experience of several relationships, there will always be an irreparable piece in my heart before the final conclusion. regret.
The ending may have some reunion, but from another perspective, everyone just continues to be trapped in their own memories. To hold on to the past or to let it go is originally your choice.
El secreto de sus ojos, I thought carefully when watching the film, who is this ambiguous sus (Spanish third-person possessive adjective, his/her/their/their) referring to? Is it Liliana who died without closing her eyes? Isidoro staring silently at the unreachable goddess in the corner of the photo? Is it the Irene who never spoke affectionately at the station where they said goodbye? Is it Esposito who is helpless because he has compromised with reality? Or Morales, who has hidden true love and revenge for 25 years? All are explanations, yet seem incomplete. English is easy, a straightforward their, everything is in it, but they don't understand the enigmatic inquiry process.

Finally, a digression, there is a sentence in the film that touched me very much, that bar Argentine fans here said that everything will change, but the love for the team they support will not, there is no reason, this is a kind of passion.
I think maybe this speaks to some of my inexplicable insistence on the country and the city I am in, everything I am doing, a certain name, and a certain person.
