Man can save himself only by saving him

I'm basically a gutless person. However, from time to time, I have a bit of a masochistic tendency, and I want to watch a thriller or something, so I have watched "1408", a night that is not bloody but very scary, and I dare not go to the balcony to wash up for several days after that.
I always remember that after an hour passed, my classmates and I were relieved and thought we could be freed, and when the timer started another hour, we felt the same despair for the protagonist, but what I didn't expect was that then What comes is the quiet rationality of the protagonist. At this time, we have a strong feeling that the protagonist has become stronger. And the main reason for him to be strong, I think is his wife and daughter.
If a man still has love, and there are people and things he cares about more than his life, then nothing can knock him down. The protagonist's previous vulnerability was only because the people and things he cared about had not been threatened, but when he smashed his computer angrily and said to his wife in the video, "No, don't listen to him! Don't come here!", All I have is not the worry and anger that accompanies him, but an unknown hope that I seem to see the prospect of his own success in order to prevent his wife from being hurt.
Although the final expression of the film is not very consistent with what I expected, the film did not disappoint me. The protagonist's strength at the end gave me hope. If you can put your own life aside, what can destroy you?
