The movie tells the story of an alien Prot claiming to be from K-PAX who tells psychiatrist Mark that he wants to bring a patient back to K-PAX before the end of the summer, and all the patients in the mental hospital are scrambling to go back with him. The stories that happened in between.
On the one hand, after watching the movie, we can use all kinds of evidence or phenomena to prove that the alien Prot, who claimed to be from K-PAX, just experienced the rape of his wife, and the murder of his daughter. Painful, the brain of Robert, a middle-aged man who survived suicide by throwing himself into the river, is to protect himself from the illusion of past pain. On the other hand, we can also use various evidences or phenomena to prove that Prot from K-PAX star really exists. He does not want his friend Robert to be forgotten and disappear, and the parasite makes the psychiatrist Mark believe by learning about his friend Robert’s unfortunate past experiences. Its existence, so as to take care of the remaining body of a friend, and take away Bess, the girl who was accused of burning her family and never talking to anyone again, a girl who is homeless and has no bonds. Whether or not Prot, the K-PAX star's desireless alien exists, he has taught us to accept that everyone has the right to escape the despair of the past in their own way, rather than forcing everyone to go in the name of social values. To face and accept the pain that human beings cannot bear, choose not to reconcile with your past self.
Just like the actor Lee Chandler in "Manchester by the Sea", he did not give up in the end the punishment for his own mistakes that burned his daughter to death and destroyed his family, reconciled with his past self, forgot the pain, and started anew; "Confinement" In Island", Ted, played by Xiao Lizi, was forced to remember the cruel fact that he was the murderer who killed his wife who drowned three children under severe depression and set fire to his home in the isolated island lighthouse with the help of doctors and others. , but still chooses to pretend that the treatment is going backwards, accept brain removal surgery, forget the pain, and be a worry-free human being.
In the final analysis, all the past pains and cruel facts in this world, some people always choose to face, some choose to escape, or not to choose, but in any case, we should respect, instead of judging everything with some fixed values, Because tolerating and accepting these different paths means retaining hope instead of despair for each of us who may be sick in the future.
Like Prot said at the end of the movie I'm going to tell you something Mark, something you don't know yet, but something we people on K-PAX discovered a long time ago, the universe expands, then shrinks back into shape, and then Re-expanding, and so on, but what you don't know is that when the earth expands again, what is happening now will repeat itself, the mistakes you made this time, the next time you experience it, you will still repeat every mistake you made, It will appear again and again, again and again, never ending, so my advice to you is to correct it immediately, because once, it will be your forever.
So please cherish the good times now, because good times are always fleeting and never come back.
