script for Macaulay against the sky looks hurt in my opinion. Is the film trying to express Henry's jealousy and evil due to falling out of favor (this seems to be understood by many film critics), or is he born with him?
If pure evil is the former, I don’t think the film has enough space to describe how parents love other children while ignoring Henry. Except for the yellow duck, this point can be used by the audience to make up for it: "Oh, maybe after the birth of the younger brother, my mother ignored it. Henry’s feelings"
Well, suppose Henry’s malice is out of jealousy, what is the situation of killing a dog with a crossbow arrow? (Actually, he aimed at the cat when he tried the crossbow arrow for the first time. Partial)? What is the situation of a serial car accident caused by throwing a dummy from the bridge? These two things again seem to have no cause for Henry's evil, which was mentioned when Mark was talking with the psychiatrist in the park. After Henry did these two things, I immediately thought of "The Omen" (a trilogy in which the child is a demon reincarnated, born to do evil).
Said it was pure evil, Henry appeared to be very impulsive and irrational when he snatched the little yellow duck from Susan in the cabin. The biggest bug is that he can clearly deal with Mark first, and then implement the rest of the plan. In fact, he has almost succeeded. Both the psychiatrist and Henry Daddy have firmly believed that Mark has psychological problems and tends to be violent, but "I am not. Keep you, tease you." Of course, it can be said that Mark's "protagonist" halo played a role, and finally appeared on the scene to destroy Henry's plan. And finally when she asked Susan to save him, she dropped the chain again and said excitedly, save me, save me, save me, leave me alone Mark, hey, your mother was just pushed down by you! It's easy for your mother to relent when you say something else. So it seems that he has no long-term evil plan.
Generally speaking, the character Henry is more like a semi-finished product. Some behaviors seem to have reasons to follow, but some behaviors are unreasonable.
In addition, I have seen many comments saying that Susan did not save her own son but saved other people's sons. I can't understand why there are such comments. My son killed his other son, and he was just about to put himself to death, and he might save him someday when he would kill him in another way. Of course it is more reasonable to save Mark, because she just saved her life.
