Father and Son, a film about growing up.

As a child, fathers were often the object of worship for boys. To be like a father is his life goal.

When I grew up, I found that my father was not as stalwart as he used to be. Perhaps, his success also has original sin, and his life is also full of bad marks. . .

If you don't want to be like a father, when a child wakes up and finds himself, the first step is to remove all the father's brand. But DNA relationships, environmental relationships, and social relationships have to make us become like our fathers.

The son put a disgusting sticker on the wall to clean up the traces of his father.

In order to avoid being like his father, his father used drunkenness, depression, and giving up until he was schizophrenic, and imagined a Mr. Beaver to replace himself.

Killing our fathers and killing ourselves doesn't make us the best people we can be. Acknowledging that no one is perfect, and accepting that my father is also an ordinary person who can make mistakes, be stupid, and run away when he encounters problems. Accepting the imperfections in life allows you to let go of others as well as yourself.

The Beaver quotes

  • Henry Black: Dad?

    Walter Black: Yeah, mate.

    Henry Black: Can we make a turd?

    Walter Black: Yeah, anytime, mate. You give the word, we'll make the turd.

  • Walter Black: No more muckin' about with tools when I'm not around. It's not safe. Or when your mother's asked you not to. Or at night. Or in a toilet. Or when you're climbing Mount Everest. Or picking your nose. Agreed?
