Can be compared.
1. There are three figures in the title. Husband, wife, friend mistaken for ghost. The husband nags and talks non-stop, and the wife taps the ice cubes indifferently, indifferent to what happened on the way home. Only care about today's harvest. until a familiar name is heard. The expression changed.
The same goes for Larry's life. The first thing his wife said to him was about the divorce, pointing directly to the key issues. This is middle-aged marriage.
2. The image of the wife is also consistent with Larry's wife in the title. Strong, domineering, and in a leadership position in the family. The wife at the beginning of the film suddenly stabbed a knife in the chest, and Larry's wife did not explain the real reason for the divorce like Larry from beginning to end. It shows that they belong to the same kind of people. But different times.
3. Consistency in the ending.
The position of the knife pierced near the heart, and the man insisted on walking out the door. In the night of the blizzard, his life and death were uncertain. And Larry's son fixedly looked at the tornado that swept in. What would the result be? unknown.
The only difference between the title and Larry's environment is.
In the title, the person who should have died in the mouth of the wife miraculously appeared in front of her eyes. Larry has always been serious about his life, but because of the people around him, he has endured pressure that should not belong to him. When all the crisis was being resolved slowly, he received a call that his X-rays were abnormal.
For two people who both believe in God. The ending is so dramatic. In a context that cannot be explained by human beings, we can only attribute everything to God. We try to ask God why these things happen, and what laws are the world and destiny obeying. But the three rabbis closest to God are all just playing word games. They are not gods after all.
To explain my personal point of view, to be honest I don't think I fully understand it. Many details cannot be explained. I just thought this movie wanted to make a point. It is the value of religious belief. Is there really a difference between believing and not believing? Will our lives change because of our faith?
Does the world really love the world as the religion preaches? If a person is tossed to death, scarred, and the only thing given is to let him go to heaven after he dies, can that be considered love? But if you don't believe it, how should we face and understand so many things that science can't explain, and so many coincidences? Who should I turn to for answers? ?
Since there is not much difference between believing and unbelieving, since we are faced with incomprehensible things, telling God will not give us the answer. Believe in a bird.
