In fact, I understand the male protagonist very well. I was born in a too happy family, so any imperfection I do is a sin. I give myself the guilt of overwhelming, I feel that I am sorry for my family, I am sorry for the world, and I don’t deserve to live, so I go to self harming. Not necessarily physically, some people are mentally, like self-harm, drug addiction, depression, bipolar, anxiety, etc.
The filming is so-so, and the feelings are a little less delicate (simply feel that everything is too deliberate). The story is not well told, and many of the logic behind the characters' choices and actions are not clearly explained. When I watched it, I felt that many people would think that the male protagonist is too arrogant, do not understand him, and feel that he is ashamed of himself for being so kind and kind to his family. However, it is precisely because the opinions and remarks of others constitute invisible prejudice and discrimination, which makes it even more difficult for drug addicts to get out of their predicament. The movie doesn't do enough on this point. After watching it, everyone will understand that it is difficult to quit drugs (actually, this movie is not very strong, and many people do not quit drugs as peacefully as the male protagonist), but they still feel that drug addicts deserve it, because The choices they made in the first place will now bear the consequences for themselves. The movie doesn't explain any of these addicts' initial choice of drug use, but in my opinion, understanding their initial motivation is important to empathize and reduce discrimination. For example, in the male protagonist's family, what we see is that they are very happy from childhood to adulthood. Although their biological parents ignore him, they still love him. The stepmother has also made countless efforts for him, friends support him, and later brothers and sisters. Everyone likes him, but he actually chooses to take drugs? So we all blame him. Because according to common sense, if others love you so much and give so much for you, you should be happy. In fact, it is moral kidnapping.
At the end, I found that the movie is based on real story, adapted from the book of the same name, I am going to buy it and read it. The feelings in the book should be more delicate. Maybe because the book tells the story from the father's point of view (I haven't read the original book, it's just a guess), so it doesn't explain how the son became addicted to drugs, because only the son himself knows. But at the end of the film, I hope that people will understand this group of people, and I hope that these people will not give up hope after seeing the film, and take the initiative to seek help. Since the film has this purpose, it is better to add this plot.
As an aside, a few days ago, I was attacked wildly after I made a comment on Weibo about my views on drug addicts. They felt that people who choose to take drugs are extremely sinful people. They do not enjoy any human rights and should be shot directly. , some people even asked their family to sit together... There are not a few people with this view, and their remarks have been liked by many other users... I don't know what kind of environment and education can make them have such a view, in my opinion it is really horrible. Being so stubborn and one-sided all the time will never succeed in drug control.
