There are three main characters in the movie, the fat man in red, the policeman, and the cowardly younger brother. The last 35 years of the fat man in red are entangled with the first 35 years of the police, and the last 35 years of the police are entangled with the first 35 years of the cowardly younger brother.
The real life trajectory of the red-clothed fat man has been shown in the video: a dispute with the police mother after the highway, a breakup, alcoholism, depravity, and suicide.
In fact, his mind has been stuck on the day of the road: he thinks that he caused the allergy to the little girl drinking Coke, and then broke the little girl's medicine, which caused the police mother to think that he was clumsy, resulting in a quarrel and a breakup. Although in the real world he lived his own degenerate life, in fact his mind was stuck on the day on the road until he died, for a full 35 years.
The policeman is a character throughout the whole play. The film finally shows his real life in the first 35 years of happiness and contentment: falling in love, graduating, learning to shoot (being a police officer), getting married, having a daughter, and having a good family. But he also had a predicament in his mind for the first 35 years: he had been blaming himself for not bringing backup medicine to his sister that day. Climb up the mountain every day, keep throwing medicine, keep blaming yourself.
The real life of the police in the last 35 years is as follows: he shot and injured his brother, seized the two brothers, went home and found Pharaoh next door, shot, was imprisoned for 35 years, was released from prison, and committed suicide.
After 35 years, the policeman's mind has been trapped in the corridor: why did he shoot and hurt his brother? This time, the shooting opened Pandora's box. His mood and mood have changed, so he shot and killed directly after returning home. It would be nice to have never fired a gun.
The first 35 years of the cowardly brother's real life are: arrest with his brother, repentance, love, marriage, family fun.
But he also has his own predicament: he confessed everything to the police, and then his brother was shot again when the police chased the two. His brother must have spent a few years robbing the store, which is why he blamed himself for the first 35 years.
The predicament of the police 35 years before escaping was that the fat man in red said that it was his responsibility before he died. This is probably also the relief that the fat man gave to the police before committing suicide in reality. Not letting him get into the police car is a metaphor for the predicament. In reality, what the fat man expresses is that the plight of young people is only small, and they are still happy when they wake up every day, while the plight of the elderly will follow for life until death.
This is also the police's advice to his cowardly younger brother before he dies: it
is better to be bothered by the small predicaments of youth than to enter into bigger predicaments, because the predicaments of the old will follow to death.

Add: In reality, the little girl and her brother are not dead, so what the film tells us is the first half of the policeman’s life, and the first half of the younger brother’s life, in fact, young people are entangled in it For some trivial things, you can always find out and blame yourself, and then you can go out and continue a happy life.
In the second half of his life and the policeman's life, the entanglement is actually small matters, because the fat man is so clumsy, even if there is no incident on the road, the police mother will still break up with him; even if the police did not shoot his brother, it is still possible to go home Murder; so what the film wants to express is that it is difficult for the elderly to get out of their own predicament, and in the end, they all end up committing suicide in reality.
Fatty should have advised the police before committing suicide, but the police forgot that he was still stuck in a predicament he created for the rest of his life and could not extricate himself. When he was about to commit suicide, he finally remembered the fatty who committed suicide, so he gave his brother another piece of advice, but it was very difficult. Obviously, the second half of my brother's life will fall into another predicament.
