When the bar owner talked about the protagonist's family, he expressed his incomprehension. From here, it can be recalled that things should have been very hot in the local area at that time, and the extreme behavior of their family was not acceptable to everyone. My brother is extremely homophobic (don't know if you agree), and so is my mother. This can be seen from the fact that the dead brother does not want to go home. The mother was very sad when she talked about her son not coming home, saying that the family hadn't been so lively in a long time. The bar incident changed everyone in the family, including the death of the younger brother.
After Tom went to the farm, both mother and brother knew about their relationship, but the mother didn't want to talk about it, and the brother didn't want to make mother sad and didn't talk about it, only Tom was kept in the dark. From the mother's acceptance of Tom's performance, the mother misses her son so much that she has long ignored the fact that her son is gay. This can also be seen from the mother's tantrums in front of Tom, girlfriend and brother during dinner. It's just that my brother has been entangled. After he beat Tom, my mother went crazy. That's how my brother forced my brother away back then, and my mother severely beat my brother.
During the dance between Tom and his brother, his mother suddenly appeared at the door, which reminded people of the scene where the bar owner described what happened back then, and his mother was also very unhappy. My brother also thought of the scene back then. He beat Tom, and he could see his mother's position in his heart. He didn't want to make her sad, but he couldn't do anything.
I don't quite understand my brother's behavior, I want to make my mother happy, but I am not thoughtful. I don't know if my brother is violent or not. I don't know what it means for my brother to have sex with his younger brother's girlfriend. It seems that my brother is very depressed. There is no one in the house at the end, and Tom flees in a panic. In fact, Tom doesn't have to do this at all. It can be said that it is quite easy for him to leave. Tom couldn't find his mother and brother, and the younger brother may have been ignored or indifferent by them, in short, he didn't feel like a family member. Tom's panic at that time should be the same as when his younger brother fled. His older brother chased after him like a madman, but he still failed to get a terrified inner forgiveness.
At the end, when Tom went to the gas station to refuel, he saw the poor child, he didn't dare to face it, he saw his brother, which made him terrified. A bit of Brokeback Mountain. . . Shows some views of homosexuality from relatives in the family and locals
