Shooting Pianist

Although I see that "Four Hundred Strikes" is my favorite now, "Shooting the Pianist" is also moving.
I don't know if it's because I am a person who often deviates from the theme, so the most fascinating place to watch is in the farm, where the pianist and the two young and dangerous brothers reminisce about the past. He was taken off the farm as a gifted musical child, but eventually he came back as a murderer, whether in self-defense or something.
As if everything was doomed to bring you back no matter how far you fled. And it's spring-loaded, the harder you earn, the more thoroughly you'll come back.
On the road you take, it seems that every step is away from your hometown, but in fact, every step is leading you back to your hometown and back to your mother. Really.
