The tone of the film is not too accurate, or a little mixed. Sometimes there is always the feeling that there is a strange rhythm mixed in with the narrative experience that pulls the film to the other end, the dramatic and the artificial, thereby diminishing the narrative's sense of engagement. If it's an experience, then it's good to narrate it. Adding fuel to it is too story-like, and telling the story, the plot is not enough, the ending is unclear, and it is too narrative. If it is a narrative type, it can be said that many of Woody Allen's can be referred to. For example, Blue Jasmine is a good example. The narrative is the narrative, and the ending is unclear but supported by depth and thinking. If it is mainly storytelling, it is like the thirteenth story of the movie. This type of storytelling has both openings and endings. But what I have to say is that it is necessary to learn from the model and make new ones by yourself, and it is possible that Dolan will eventually come out of some surprising places on his own way. Sometimes strange and wonderfully strange.
The brother in the film is isolated and has no friends because of his violent tendencies, because his mother can't leave for a new environment, which makes visiting Tom the only peer he gets along with, but he still can't control his violence. Because Tom lost his lover, when he saw his brother who was similar to his lover, he couldn't forbid his brother to replace the lost lover. They comforted each other and needed each other, which made the story further develop. From the perspective of story development, Dolan's pace is better than Lawrence's.
