Dust to dust and dust to dust

I have collected the film for a long time and watched it silently in the afternoon on the weekend. There was an urge to cry.
Stuart lived in a commoner family, if not even a commoner family. Because my mother remarried, if the remarriage is not good, all members of the family will say goodbye to happiness. He was abused by his brother for 3 years. He complained to his mother, but his mother did not believe him. Later, his brother, who intensified, called his classmates to join him in violence. Unable to bear it, the 9-year-old broke out with a knife: send me to the shelter! After the family sent him to the shelter, they didn't expect the director of the shelter to be a child molester. Stuart's sister said it well: she just came out of the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den. Even after the criminal's brother committed suicide, his mother still didn't believe it, and gave her a glance when her sister said this: What are you talking about.
Alexandra became Stuart's friend, even though he had a taboo against him at first: Stuart's elaborate "criminal curry", which he surreptitiously rubbed and rubbed his fork.
The most distressing thing is that no matter which crime Stuart talks about, he never bears any resentment, and even understates it: it's nothing, nothing of the fucking shit. And when it comes to the system, he still hates the system calmly. Alexandra began to wonder about Stuart's hatred of the system, and explained to him: the system you hated gave you a £5,000 pacemaker for free.
That's why I was in tears listening to that tape after Stuart committed suicide.
Mushrooms are a clue inside, just like the potted plants in "The Killer". The first time Alexandra went to Stuart's house, S found canned mushrooms, Oh, mushroom is a good thing. I think he compared mushrooms on purpose. Mushrooms are fungi that grow up in a dark environment without sunlight. Beneficial to human body. Just like S himself. Later, the two drove to A's middle-class friend's house, passing by a place selling wooden handicrafts, filled with carved mushrooms of various shapes and sizes. There is no scene where the two of them buy mushrooms in the movie, but in the middle-class home, mushrooms are tied to the luggage rack.
And this mushroom also appeared in S's bedroom. When they were acquitted and drank champagne to celebrate, the mushroom appeared in N close-ups.
S finally committed suicide, dust to dust, dust to dust, and everything was wiped out. "His life on earth is over." When the pastor read this passage, he really felt that belief was really important. Thank you Christ Jesus.
