There is no hero without a sense of tragedy, but for the birth of a hero, human beings have endured things that he cannot know and their own abilities have grown together - but the speed of the latter far exceeds the world of the former.
Bill finally said calmly that everything in the city of "Stopping Water" has changed - the daughter thinks that it has not changed, considering that the father's previous sentence was "life is cruel", does "everything has changed" mean that the water has stopped Already have "Weilan"?
No, the change Bill felt was a reaffirmation of cruelty, and it was a decisive confirmation, so "change" here means that the glimmer of hope and fluke that he still had for a cruel life has completely subsided. Bill's calm is a desperate calm, and the change he feels is: Stillwater has changed from "still water" to "dead water".
If Crusoe speaks of a pervasive and rooted alien force, Stillwater speaks of utter despair. "Don't give your daughter false hope," said Mrs. Leparq, who was handling the case. Even if Bill finds the culprit, the root of the matter is still the same. Under the cover of the "Welcome Back" ceremony, the parents confirmed this to each other, a kind of A hopeless, but still love thing.
The combination of hopelessness and love is hopeless.
The cruelty of life is not what you think it is - the kind of cruel, otherwise she lost her mother and lost her lover, and because of some tragic misunderstanding, the daughter is the one who defines life, but she is not, the father loves her , but the father denied the daughter's statement at the end, and the film ended, and the director obviously stood on the father's side.
In fact, from the director's point of view, the scene where Bill hugs the little girl Maya must be added to the scene where Bill hugs his daughter. The two children experience the cruelty of life through this partial perception. Anyone who understands one can only see his own loss, but he doesn't know that Bill lost both for something that seemed right and had to do.
The cruelty of life is that you lose all the way to get it, and at the end of it, you have nothing. This absurdity is revealed in this film:
What Bill cleared and ultimately succeeded in was his daughter who was not entirely innocent, but he loved her;
Bill's promise to never hurt Maya's mother and daughter contained "can't do it" from the start, but he did love them, especially little M.
We can imagine that the reason Bill didn't keep all his wife's belongings was also because he loved her.
Again, the cruelty Bill felt was not encounter, but structural.
Bill's name is also very interesting, he is both a bill and a bill. Maya's mother asked Bill, do you have any cash?
Going a step further, recall that when the film crosses over to the part where "Virginie opens the cellar" and "Bill tells Maya that he won't hurt them no matter what", the audience is hinted at some kind of "thriller" here—press The logic of the classic Hong Kong movie, Virginie is going to be hurt by Bill's imprisoned people in the cellar, but, things don't go that way - not only did it not, V then successfully helped Bill out of his own predicament.
However, things were not so blessed.
Therefore, this film is saying: the cruelty of life is not in hurting or killing people, but in the manipulation of life that one will feel deeply; and, when one thinks that he can fight against this manipulation with love, when one is more The more true love and love, the deeper this sense of powerlessness will be.
There is no perfect love, only perfect neglect of powerlessness.
People are destined to fall into the broken at birth. Those who are in it - broken people, in the pursuit of love - seeking perfection, failure is the doomed end, and those who are born and raised in Stillwater, always recite the name of God. The story of the Bill family is just a touch of American flavor, and the dullness and sadness of the final morning in the film are common.
Perhaps, only as an audience, and only as people who are willing to ponder after watching the film, can it be possible to gain inspiration from this film-or, a good question, a question worthy of a longer response: Why is everyone who truly loves so clumsy, terrible, and sinful?
