A neglected villain, Carl

The night was as deep as the sea, I quietly lay on the bed and watched the Titanic. I don't know how many times I watched it. It seems that this has become a habit, when I need to cry.
This time, I was moved by a villain named Carl. It seems that the spotlight has been placed on the protagonist. The love between Jack and Rose is undoubtedly reeling. Every time he hates Karl for messing with selfishness, and wasting the chance of escape on jealousy and conspiracy, but this time from From his perspective, I think I have seen something new again, write it down and share it with you.
The first time was at the beginning of the film, when he walked into Rose's room and saw the paintings she had collected. There is no doubt that he does not understand or care about art, he is a thorough businessman, even at the last moment of the film he is still a businessman. I looked at him with a smile and said that Rose liked these paintings, like Picasso. It seems to be full of disdain and mockery, but there is a bit of bitterness in the mockery. He can't melt into her world, he can't understand her, and can't understand art. He went on to say that she would bring these paintings every time she went out. For the first time, I felt that maybe he has love for Rose not only because he needs a beautiful and young wife, but also because he has a strong sense of businessman. This is because he is unable to change and has no consciousness. Arrived. If he just asked her to make a vase next to him, then he would not care about her preferences, would not bother to bring her paintings on every trip, would not understand her habits so much, because he cared about her.
Then they looked down, and they went in and out of high society as usual, until he saw Jack who had rescued Rose on the deck. I don't know if it was because of my too much heart. After his false thanks, I clearly saw him glance at Jack vigilantly, then turned around and hugged Rose and left immediately. That look was complicated and cold. He probably understood what was going on. Out of an instinctive vigilance, he felt that this person was different to Rose, so he didn't care about the gentleman's demeanor and immediately wanted to remove Rose from here. When the crew proposed to give Jack some compensation, he invited him to the first-class cabin for dinner. Personally, he felt that this was simply a trick of love. He hoped that he would be embarrassed, and hoped that Rose would find out that he was good by comparing him with this poor boy. The essence of the businessman is also vivid, and he can thank him without paying a penny. I can't compare which of the two reasons is more important. Emotional factors and monetary factors are complicated. This is Carl.
However, things often backfired. The more he wanted to hit him, the more he wanted to separate them, which instead contributed to their inseparability.
Next is the third-class party, I have to say that Rose did a little too much here. Whether he is a possessive man or not, he can't stand his fiancée blatantly going in and out with another person on the boat. Under everyone's eyes, she took his hand and turned happily, hugging, like a pair of lovers. He still maintained his gentlemanly demeanor, waiting for her to arrive at night, thinking she would explain to him well, but not only did he not wait for him, but the next day she drank tea nonchalantly and said: "I'm too tired "At that moment, he couldn't help it anymore, he couldn't see any sign of regret. When I saw him turning over the table, I felt that he was no different from any young man in love, young and impulsive. Can't find a proper way to restore his woman. But this time he didn't touch Rose. He vented his anger on the table and silently warned her not to mess around.
At night, he came to her again and took out the famous heart of the ocean. He is not someone who can apologize, but he seems to be unable to hold on to her by her side. He wears the priceless gems on her neck, which is a silent apology and weight. He is a businessman, and his apology is calculated. He gave her the gems in advance, just to save her heart. But he really didn't understand her. He doesn't understand love either.
The next thing is getting farther and farther away from his expectations. When he saw the painting, he just wanted to tear it off! However, the nature of the businessman made him come up with a conspiracy. He always wanted to exchange the least price for the most profit. As a result, he succeeded and Rose returned to him. He put her on a lifeboat, but she finally discovered his conspiracy and chose to find the poor boy. He was almost mad and told the servant beside him to go look for her, he still wanted to take her with him. He went back and took the necklace and money. Can you say he is selfish? Still smart?
Seeing that she was on the deck again, she was waiting to get on the lifeboat, still following him closely and wearing his clothes. He was so frustrated that he immediately forced her to put on his coat, but forgot it. Diamonds. She refused to get on the lifeboat because of the poor boy. He was actually willing to lie to coax her to board the boat at this moment. I was moved by him at this moment. When he smiled and comforted her that I had arranged everything, I promised you to take Jack away. I think he really loves Rose, his only purpose of telling this lie is to coax her to get on the boat, of course he knows what it means to get on the boat. When the two men in Rose's life were lying on the railing, looking at her, and saying goodbye to her with a smile, what was the difference between the two men? The only moment they were unified was for her life, and the only thing they had in common was to love her.
When Rose finally chose to jump off the boat and live and die with Jack, Karl's last chance to board the boat was placed in front of him, but he gave up. We often only saw Rose giving up the opportunity to board the ship a few times and choosing to be with Jack, but we didn't see Karl doing the same thing. Rose gave up twice, Carl gave up twice. Rose is for Jack, Carl is for Rose. He was young and vigorous, and emotional, he was finally dazzled by jealousy, and he drew a gun and shot the lovers. If his nature is really so selfish and cold, then how can he be so crazy? He really wanted to fight Jack to the death. The bullets were all shot, but none of them were hit. He was really desperate to hold the gun but couldn't fire the bullets, so he gave up. In the end he found that the diamond had been given to her. In such a ridiculous way, he laughed, laughing at the drama of the matter, laughing at the end that he couldn't keep one of them, his two darlings.
I have been wondering whether Carl went to find among the survivors last, whether it was Rose or a diamond. He had loved Rose madly. He had done a lot of impulsive silly things for her. Diamonds were also something he had never forgotten about, representing the businessman's breath in his bones. He was right, they were his two treasures, two treasures that were lost forever.
