At the beginning I thought it would be a movie about schizophrenia or depression in teenagers, but after seeing it, I thought its plot was very realistic. I also encountered Duncan's situation and thought that it was not a divorce of parents. It's a sense of insecurity, but I'm not as lucky as Dunkan. There were two people in his life who gave him hope and motivation to help him get out of the dark.
As sung in the movie song: I got a sensation. Duncan really found the joy of his life in this trip, he blended into the amusement park to start a whole new experience of another feeling. He learned to flirt, blend in, be funny, find confidence, courage, and joy, and become a sunny boy (but when he got home, he was the gloomy prince again), all of which Owen taught He, Owen, also filled in the missing father's place. Susanna is like his confidant, and Owen is like his life coach. Everyone needs a friend like Susanna, a partner like Owen during certain times like low tide.
Why is it said that children in single-parent families are lonely and surly, because they feel lonely, their parents start a new life and they still stay in place, feeling like they have been abandoned. So there's no doubt that Duncan is hostile to Trent himself, because subconsciously he's breaking his family even when it's not. And when the secret of someone you hate is presented to you, what you do is uncover it. But when he may hurt the person you love, people will hesitate! Secrets themselves are part of growing up, children have grown-ups, and everyone has secrets. It's hard to hide, it's like joy. It's hard to appear happy when you're unhappy, and vice versa. Anyway, it will be revealed eventually, but the secret will also be covered up by the secret, so it is all revealed. But sometimes, it's a good development trend to reveal secrets, who knows?
Growth itself is a very cruel thing, we can not refuse and change. But you have to learn to hide and accept, and sometimes even give up yourself. One day you will get used to it because it is the only way to grow up.
