The tragedy of three people

The director is expressing that the relationship between the three is very delicate and worth pondering. I can't understand it, but I can feel the subtlety in it. It's so powerful. Channing's acting skills have improved a lot. I used to think he was a vase, but now I suddenly have feelings for him. After a huge change, the three people acted very well, generally such subtle emotions are really not easy to play.
Let's talk about the plot, the tragedy of the three people, Mark was jealous of his brother, conceited, capable, and took refuge in DuPont, thinking that he and DuPont became good friends or mentors, but in fact it was just a dog of DuPont... In the end, he chose to leave DuPont, but lost his brother and his own future; Dave is an absolute good guy, always supporting him on the side of his brother Mark, a strong man, but among the good living conditions provided by DuPont, he chose DuPont, but not like Mark listened to DuPont's words and did not bring the Olympic honor, which led to the end of his final life; DuPont, it can be described as a pervert, dark, fickle, cold-blooded, and finally killed Dave who did not earn honor for him; feeling Egotism, jealousy, and perversion are all terrible...
It's over, I don't know if I understand it right or not, but when I see the end, I feel really uncomfortable. Although the film is boring, it will make people want to watch it, eh
