Helena: You are a godsend, Patrick. bye.
Patrick: Is that Mirabelle?
Amanda: Annabelle.

Girl mother : You are a godsend, Patrick, bye. Patrick: Is that Mirabelle
?
Amanda: Annabelle.

Patrick has always been a morality Struggling in the dilemma, in the end, he made a choice between the dilemma. He was not sure whether it was right or not, but the right part should always be a little bit more than the wrong part, he might think so. (Unfortunately, the standard of right and wrong is invalid in this case) Tangle like me, in this case, I can't make a choice at all. Just because I can't choose, I can't judge the choice of the actor. (Although I think it is better for the child to leave the child to the old sheriff to raise, but I can't help but admire the hero's behavior that pays a huge price to adhere to the principle), until. . . . . .
Until these last three lines. The drug dealer’s mother is of course dereliction of duty as always, but this does not prove that Patrick is wrong, nor can he be sure that Patrick is wrong. When Patrick leaned against the wall with a melancholy expression, looking at the mother and daughter who influenced him the most but actually had nothing to do with him, he was lost, he was eager, and eager to find proof that he was right. Evidence, because he doubted it very much, and because his choice made too many people pay too heavy a price. So when Helena praised him as godsend before leaving, his heart felt a little better. After all, he fulfilled the promise to this woman that day, brought back her daughter, and even gave her a brand new one. Life. As a result, his serious expression eased slightly.
He sat on the sofa with the little bit of joy just now. Perhaps because of being praised as godsend, he smiled like an angel at the angel he saved next to him (the male protagonist’s most beautiful and heartfelt smile in the whole film). At the same time, he started a casual pick but was once The topic of the news focus-Amanda's doll.
"That's Mirabelle, right?"
Amanda replied tenderly "Annabelle." in a heartbreaking voice.
Then, the male lead's smile solidified, and the angelic brilliance in his eyes was fleeting. Because, he suddenly understood that those groups of people who came forward and succeeded, those reporters who came in droves, those entangled neighbors, those policemen guarded by layers, those so concerned national audience (the same place did not have four people dead. Does anyone care? Even the male protagonist himself. All those who claim to follow Amanda and claim to work hard to save her. From the beginning, even the name of the doll that was used to enhance the tragedy and seditiousness was wrong. of!
Are they really here for her? Do they really care about her most? Are they the ones who love her most?
The person who loves her the most and who truly spares no expense for her happiness, one who left her beloved boyfriend, some went into the cell, one lost her husband, and moved out of the district, unable to see the child again, and one, Died on the rooftop, saying: I love children. (I love children).
And all of this is actually the result of the male protagonist's hard work.
Is the choice you made for her or for you to be able to make it right? Really, just like you never knew the name of the doll, you never knew Amanda, and you didn't really think about it from her perspective. You found all the answers, but you did the questions you shouldn't do. Your logic seems to be right, but like you said life is a motherfucker, it doesn't speak logic. Is it true that getting right is more important than Amanda's happiness? So many people don't think so, even though the price is so high.
So he turned his head to watch TV, and didn't move.

    Too dramatic. Although the social significance and moral thinking are worth recommending, the performance techniques are too straightforward. Both the director and the screenwriter have dealt with it too hard.

    The ups and downs and the ups and downs of the plot made me feel good about the director who didn't have much love for the predecessor who was a handsome actor. And the seemingly leeway ending is actually the director's position, even though this position is so clever that you still can't figure out your own position. Behaviors that take kindness as the starting point sharpen unexpected changes because of differences between people. Who has never been young, firmly wants to change the world by relying on self-righteous principles.

Gone Baby Gone quotes

  • Officer in Procession: [approaching Patrick and shaking his hand] Mr. Kenzie. Nice fucking job on Corwin Earle.

  • Patrick Kenzie: I'm calling state police in five minutes. They'll be here in ten.

    Capt. Jack Doyle: Thought you would've done that by now. You know why you haven't? Because you think this might be an irreparable mistake. Because deep inside you, you know it doesn't matter what the rules say. When the lights go out, and you ask yourself "is she better off here or better off there", you know the answer. And you always will. You... you could do a right thing here. A good thing. Men live their whole lives without getting this chance. You walk away from it, you may not regret it when you get home. You may not regret it for a year, but when you get to where I am, I promise you, you will. I'll be dead, you'll be old. But she... she'll be dragging around a couple of tattered, damaged children of her own, and you'll be the one who has to tell them you're sorry.

    Patrick Kenzie: You know what? Maybe that'll happen. And if it does, I'll tell them I'm sorry and I'll live with it. But what's never gonna happen and what I'm not gonna do is have to apologize to a grown woman who comes to me and says: "I was kidnapped when I was a little girl, and my aunt hired you to find me. And you did, you found me with some strange family. But you broke your promise and you left me there. Why? Why didn't you bring me home? Because all the snacks and the outfits and the family trips don't matter. They stole me. It wasn't my family and you knew about it and you knew better and you did nothing". And maybe that grown woman will forgive me, but I'll never forgive myself.

    Capt. Jack Doyle: I did what I did for the sake of the child. All right. For me, too. But now, I'm asking you for the sake of the child. I'm begging you. You think about it.
