two duels

One concern is that the contradiction arising from Barry Lyndon's biased treatment of Brindon finally ends in the same form of the confrontation at the beginning, but it is different. Barry Lyndon at the beginning seems to be standing in the struggle, willing to sing praises of love, carrying Cupid's bow and holding a gun - since you love me, I will never turn back... First duel It seemed to be very smooth, but it was revealed after the fact that it was an empty bomb, which became the trauma of Barry Lyndon's life, and his subsequent behavior became worldly but not blind, still calm and shrewd, which can be seen at the end. Since Brynden is looking for revenge and wants to duel, he agrees, and his expression doesn't seem to be afraid at all. The funny thing is that this duel also went wrong. Brynden went away because of fear and lost a shot. Barry Lyndon did not take advantage of the danger, and also fired an empty gun, hit the ground, and startled a group of white pigeons-although Barry Lyndon wanted to reconcile, but the white pigeons flew away, and the two were destined to die. Brynden is still young after all, but compared to the young duel between Barry Lyndon and Brynden, Barry Lyndon is fearless, he accepts everything, he can stand up even after suffering, and he will not hang his wounds on it. Mouth, he is a child and will forget. This is not to say that Barry Lyndon has no character flaws, it's just that Barry Lyndon seems to be more courageous than the son of a nobleman when it comes to dueling, and he also has his own firm beliefs. Brynden, who has gone into trouble, vomited, was asked for peace, but still asked for a second duel.... He also has his courage, he has to achieve his goal even if he is afraid, everyone has the first time, right? , jumping even if scared - Barry Lyndon's shooting in the foot is not a redemption for Brynden, and Brynden will not accept it, Barry Lyndon owes him more, or he thinks that Barry Lyndon is saddled with three "debts" - Brynden's mom, dad's, Brynden's own - that can't be repaid, never will be repaid, regardless of Barry Lyndon's forgiveness. Several times, Linden will continue to choose to duel, load, shoot, until he hits, and shoot hate from the barrel of his heart until he hits the target.
