Gone Baby Gone

The question is not what is "good", nor what the "future" is. It has nothing to do with "hope". The key to solving the puzzle lies in a line of dialogue in the middle of the film. Forgot who asked who, what should I do if I want to go to heaven when I die? The pastor quoted God as saying: Be as wise as wolves and as innocent as lambs.

This means: You are not God, you have no right to make choices about other people's lives, and even if her mother is an addict, that doesn't mean you have the right to kidnap her child. If her child is unfortunate in the future, it is also God's will, and you should be in awe. You must be innocent and do not interfere in the will of God, because that is arrogance.

For the male protagonist, he has discovered this secret, so the only option to keep him innocent can and must be to send the girl back to her mother, and he is just the hand of God, unless he never knows about it.

    What is right and wrong in the past can often be seen clearly in the future. The other side of youth is childishness~~

Gone Baby Gone quotes

  • Officer in Procession: [approaching Patrick and shaking his hand] Mr. Kenzie. Nice fucking job on Corwin Earle.

  • Patrick Kenzie: I'm calling state police in five minutes. They'll be here in ten.

    Capt. Jack Doyle: Thought you would've done that by now. You know why you haven't? Because you think this might be an irreparable mistake. Because deep inside you, you know it doesn't matter what the rules say. When the lights go out, and you ask yourself "is she better off here or better off there", you know the answer. And you always will. You... you could do a right thing here. A good thing. Men live their whole lives without getting this chance. You walk away from it, you may not regret it when you get home. You may not regret it for a year, but when you get to where I am, I promise you, you will. I'll be dead, you'll be old. But she... she'll be dragging around a couple of tattered, damaged children of her own, and you'll be the one who has to tell them you're sorry.

    Patrick Kenzie: You know what? Maybe that'll happen. And if it does, I'll tell them I'm sorry and I'll live with it. But what's never gonna happen and what I'm not gonna do is have to apologize to a grown woman who comes to me and says: "I was kidnapped when I was a little girl, and my aunt hired you to find me. And you did, you found me with some strange family. But you broke your promise and you left me there. Why? Why didn't you bring me home? Because all the snacks and the outfits and the family trips don't matter. They stole me. It wasn't my family and you knew about it and you knew better and you did nothing". And maybe that grown woman will forgive me, but I'll never forgive myself.

    Capt. Jack Doyle: I did what I did for the sake of the child. All right. For me, too. But now, I'm asking you for the sake of the child. I'm begging you. You think about it.
