Unexpectedly, tears shed silently in the gentle singing at the end of the film...

Even though it seems to have returned to the original point of being with flowers, the protagonist who has experienced all this and us who have gone through it with the protagonist have experienced some kind of wonderful chemical reaction without realizing it.

One of the most impressive scenes in the film is the appearance of Earl driving a pickup truck and sing-song across the land of North America. The uninhibited and indulgent soul of freedom loves his emaciated figure and the old-fashioned style of Don Quixote. contrast and dramatic tension.

Love this poster! ! !

However, this is the manifestation of its strong vitality, so that the drug gang who led him to monitor him and us off-screen were also deeply infected and sang along.

Earl is also very honest with himself and with the world. Because of "honesty", we can truly and freely be ourselves. Whether it's a lone ranger galloping on the highway, or finally sincerely and frankly apologizing to his family, reconciling with his family, or making a neat and straightforward confession in court... It is precisely because of this that he in the film repeatedly shows the younger generation. some disdain. Maybe he is right, because the world is changing so fast and dazzling, it is easy for the younger generation to get lost in the "complex" and forget the essential "simplicity" of being human. Finally, I hope that the rest of my life can be like the last song of the film, going through prosperity, returning to the original, simple, gentle, and bright, revealing the most genuine joy of life.
