This movie does not mean to be morally judged. To borrow a phrase from the old writer "life just comes across you", life is just like this, it is not planned. Of course, life cannot escape the judgment of value. Mimi's disappointment and helplessness towards Tom is "they won again...they corrupted you". Life is always tossing about, and when you find peace in your heart, it will stop naturally. In a seemingly balanced family, everyone has their own entanglements and confusion in their hearts. Reluctant maintenance can only suffocate everyone; "go through it" can relieve difficulties and achieve true balance.
ps: This movie is a book written by an old writer with the same name, and it is not explained until its identity is revealed. For this old man, this is the only one among all the boys in New York that has something to do with him. In his eyes, it is "the only living boy in New York", so the starting point of the movie can also be said to be the constant theme "love".
