At the beginning of the film, we have already told everyone that he died, and when we saw the middle, we knew that his dream could not be fulfilled, and he was struck to death by a bolt of lightning. Traditional American inspirational comedies usually end with the protagonist accomplishing amazing results. However, in this film, there is no such clichéd twist. He did not go to Northwestern University, he did not become a New Yorker, he did not Won the Nobel Peace Prize, and no one knows whether his literary magazine was read after his death. Does it matter? How many people pay attention to the result. Many people will say that the dream is the best use. He has pursued it for a long time, but he has not failed. The pursuit of the dream itself is meaningless. I think this film is telling us that it doesn't matter what the result is, what matters is the process of pursuing a dream.
A person without dreams is worthless. No matter what the result is, no matter what others think of you, the important thing is that you can fight for your dreams. Even the protagonist didn't understand this until the end, and put his article in a literary magazine. At least, he greeted him with a smile before the lightning struck.
