I saw a clip from the movie at the Oscars in 2017 where the father said to his son, "Like you? I, as your father, have an obligation to raise you, take care of you, provide you with accommodation, so that you can eat well. , but I have no obligation to like you." Probably this is what I mean, I can't retell the original dialogue accurately. Regarding the relationship between father and child, this is the first time I have seen such an expression on the screen, and Denzel Washington's performance is also impressive, so I decided to watch this film.
Movies are really a magical art. Across the big screen, those unspoken problems that happen in life will become easier for people to accept in movies. Presumably these stories are far enough away from us to feel safe enough.
The father in our mouth always gives enough support to the child, gives all the care to the child, and is absolutely loyal to the family. So the father passed down by word of mouth, when we were young, our father was a mountain, and when we grew up, we became a kind and lovely old man. But our real father may just be a narrow-minded, stubborn old man. What he gives us is what he thinks is the best in the world, and what he asks us to do is what he thinks is best for us: children should have a stable income, so that a stable family can be established, and with a family Only with the support of the family can they devote themselves to work and provide financial support for the family. And the career we choose must also be reliable and not have too many variables. Such a father and we are always at odds with each other, and we may not agree with each other for a long time. Our serious, world is very different.
What's more, once in our hearts, my father was indeed the best man in the world. Truly a giant. But day by day, as we grew up, we gradually realized that he also has his own shortcomings, he may not be faithful to his wife, he may not treat his family as well as we think, and he always says He has tried his best and paid enough. So we would inevitably have contempt for him again, and vowed never to become a man like my father. The love and longing for my father had been replaced by hatred. But one day, the person you desperately want to stay away from, the person you hate the most in the world, and maybe the person you love the most, you will live like him again. Oh, so you never escaped his influence on you.
I have seen many movies showing the relationship between father and son and family relationship, but none of them are so real and cruel. What you dare not tell anyone, about the disputes in your family, about the imperfections of your father or mother, it says it all for you. Watching a movie at a safe distance, in retrospect, makes it feel like it was so close to you, it's terrifying.
