How long does it take to truly be yourself

I'm a big fan of horror movies. When I first saw the title of the movie, wow, it's a murderer, and it's still a friend! Ok! It will definitely be a film that challenges people's limits with blood, but I think too much about it, it's actually a drama. I was waiting for the reversal to turn black, watching the passage of time, until the end, I didn't wait for the mad killing.

The male protagonist is a poor child who is not valued and paid attention to in his original family. His parents love his younger brother more, and give almost all their love to this younger brother. In order to cater to his father, he had to give up his hobby of biology and his fascination with bones, and worked hard to be what his father wanted, so that his father could love himself a little more.

When everyone disliked the food made by his mother, the male protagonist said he liked it in order to get his mother's attention and love. He originally liked to eat chicken legs, but in order to cater to his mother's partiality, he gave it to his younger brother. Just because my mother could love him and not hate him.

One day when he was called to answer a question in class, the male protagonist found that acting stupid could attract the attention of others. A little transparent like him instantly fell in love with this feeling, and later he verified the idea. As long as you play silly and funny, everyone will pay attention to themselves, and if they like themselves, they will be loved by more people. The male protagonist successfully made a few friends and formed a small group. It was the first time that the male protagonist was recognized and praised by so many people, which made him extremely happy. Therefore, in order to maintain such a feeling, he caters to everyone, keeps being funny, and pretends to be stupid with all kinds of ideas, just so that everyone can be more willing to approach him, like him, and love him.

When the male protagonist thinks that he has become what his parents want, there is a change in the family, and the parents want to divorce. I thought that I could finally get the love of my parents, but I got this result. Then the male protagonist finally realized that he was just a joker who made fun of him in the eyes of his friends. He thought that everyone really liked him, but it turned out to be his wishful thinking. In the end, the male protagonist tried to get in touch with girls, trying to solve his confusion of being attracted to the same sex. However, he failed completely at the dance. He had no feelings for girls. For him, girls were not as delicious as fast food...

In order to cater to everyone, it is either empty or a big joke. Suppressing the true self, just for the extravagant desire to get humble love, anyone will collapse and collapse, and people will be perverted if they are humble to an extreme. From then on, the male protagonist fell in love with drinking and fell in love with trance. Since this time, the seeds of sin have been planted, and one day it will grow into a towering tree...

Another point is that if the male protagonist got the attention of his parents at the beginning, he would definitely find out why he didn't date a girlfriend. If this time can be channeled to make him face up to his obsession with the same sex, maybe there will be no future...

In short, this film is not to whitewash the murderer, but to let everyone read other people's stories, to experience, to feel, to reflect, to gain something, to do something to the people around you...
