The whole film has a retro film flavor, very little dialogue, and uses a lot of shots to express the character's solitude, silence or inner self The state of suffering, so many scenes are very quiet, almost sound.
Although the theme is sports, it has a strong tragic color. The director also deliberately did not make it a competitive film, but rather told the story of three men in a very slow speech rate as a bystander.
It is precisely because of the large amount of blank space, the slow progress of the plot, and the fact that the characters in this film are far away from us, people who are not particularly concerned about sports may have never heard of it, so this film is not easy for people to watch. The director's obscure and condensed plot statement also makes the emotional entanglements and changes of the characters in the film difficult to detect. Take Du Pont's mother, for example.
As for the ending, many people don't understand why John du Pont wanted to kill David Schultz. The reason why John du Pont was interrogated back then was just "I was in a bad mood that day". But from the movie, it is actually very simple. He is a hero and a hero to Mark, and he hopes that Mark can have the same emotional dependence on him as his brother to meet his long-term lack of identity. You want such a prominent family, you earn half the world's money, and everyone thinks you deserve it); but David's true love for his brother makes Mark disobedient to his control, and he hates David for letting Mark Leaving is like hating the liar who kidnapped his child and made the child break up with him from now on.
