Like Seven Pounds, Reigh Over Me tells the story of a man who lost his entire family in an instant. The difference is that the former is an irresistible human tragedy, while the latter is the death of the moment. Therefore, the former can have the possibility of rebirth after sinking, while the latter can only die.
This way is Tim's way of repentance, and this way is Tim's chosen path of redemption.
The literal discussion of Seven Pounds is based on "a pound of flesh" in "The Merchant of Venice", seven people closest to him are ruined by his own hands, and seven people who have never met have been given a new life. These seven new births are by no means the flesh given by Tim. As simple as wealth, Tim is not like the anonymous organ and property donors who are praised. He uses persistence and belief to maximize his wealth and energy. He is no longer the usual benevolent philanthropist. He has exchanged his death for so many vibrant and meaningful lives. He has abandoned the symbolism of death for redemption, and engraved it on seven or more. in human life.
The meaning of life, ever since human beings entered a civilized society, its discussion, like love, is destined to go on endlessly. Atonement can save one's soul, but it cannot undo the damage that has been done. Death is a relief, and Tim leaves the happiness behind in the world. This is enough to add a whole new footnote to the atonement. It is not only a model of atonement not only to free the soul that has been imprisoned, but to make the past happiness shine again.
