The film is very dull, and I stopped to watch it because of the cooperation between Norton and De Niro. Surprisingly, Mira also has a sexy side.
The story is not complicated. The soon-to-be-retired prison officer (who can decide whether the prisoner has the possibility of early release, I don't know what it's called...) encountered a strange prisoner. After being designed by the prisoner to sleep with his wife, he was controlled by others and could only allow his Parole. During this period, prisoners began to search for the ultimate existence after reading certain religious books. The relationship between prisoners and officials gradually changed 180 degrees, from being educated to leading. In the end, the official's family was still alive, and the prisoner embarked on the path of cultivation.
After reading the information, I realized that the director also filmed the veil. No wonder it always reminds me of Somerset Maugham.
Two subsidiary lines of the story, two families, two women.
The prisoner's wife is a sexy and charming alien (heterogeneous, hehe), she dominates everything, understands the weaknesses of men, and is tough and does not allow failure. Is it love between them? If outside the prison, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, it is understandable. Other men are faceless passers-by, and the sexual intercourse without kissing is purely for venting. Those words to officials, if you don't like not having sex, may be true. "I don't believe in God", I only believe in myself. Like, the threshold can be very low.
The official's wife is a virtuous and old woman. The girl behind the bicycle boy has become a wrinkled and shriveled old woman, swallowing all the bitterness in her stomach, which is quite the virtue of the so-called traditional Chinese women. The key is that for him, things like true love are dead, and they died a long time ago, so he can throw women, so he can suppress his wife and daughters into smoking guns, so he can kill bees for a lifetime. to this horrible sound. The old lady has a life too. She has faith. He has it, but he doesn't believe it. Doubters, numb, damaged. The uncontrollable sadness was finally ignited by a third party and turned into a fire that devoured the house. Awesome, it was God who arranged the fire to dissolve the pain in the past. Is this love? Perhaps, in the 43 years, I don't know what to change the passion into, but it will always be in the name of love.
He loved her, and after a year of passion and eight years of waiting, he was finally calmed down by faith.
He loves her, a young and pure 43-year-old, and finally lost himself due to lack of faith.
He and she don't know if it's love, they don't believe in anything, naturally they don't believe in love.
Sometimes it feels so good to be lost in desire, and sometimes I expect peace to come. It's sheer self-inflicted harassment.
Those who believe in God and can explain their doubts, hope to have such an opportunity.
