to die as a good man

Many people gave me Amway in the early days of this movie, and I started watching this movie with full expectation. But until the movie was halfway through, I felt that there was no progress in the plot. Teddy was still at a loss, and I was confused. Until 1 hour and 45 minutes, the plot reached a climax when Teddy opened the top floor of the clock tower. I thought the truth was finally about to surface. However, the story has just begun from this moment.
When I was told that Chuck was Dr. Sheehan and that Teddy had imagined all this, I refused. Teddy and I refused together and firmly believed that this was just a means by which they wanted to keep Teddy. In the next direction, I vacillated between conspiracy theory and therapy theory. At the end, when he finished saying "to live as a moster, or to die as a good man", when Sheehan called him Teddy and he did not look back, when the final picture was frozen in the clock tower, I just Knowing that he chose "to die as a good man".
After watching the movie of 2 hours and 18 minutes, I am truly qualified to judge this movie. The long foreshadowing in front is for the final surprise. Every shot I thought was boring before has its own meaning. He was afraid of the water because his child was drowning and his gun was not a real pistol. What his wife said, "This will really be your end. "The real meaning of "The previous interpretation was so good that I almost couldn't convince myself that he was really a mentally ill person in the end." Looking back at this movie now, it is true that my heart cannot be calm for a long time.

    When you are in a mental hospital, how do you prove that you are not mentally ill?

    It's a bit old-fashioned and wanting to make it mysterious... the plot is really procrastinated and too long...
