Perhaps we should clearly realize that no matter how great Stephen is, he is just a liar. He is not much different from the person who sells rings on the street, and the person who calls you to pay.
But perhaps, we should also see Stephen's understanding and love for his younger brother. From the moment the Bloom brothers planned to start with Penelope, in all the plans, Bloom was an image of a lover with an unshakable conscience, but Stephen was always pretending to be a villain. This may be a factor of appearance, but I would rather understand it as an aversion to deception that my elder brother has already produced in order to take care of his younger brother. Although no matter how well-intentioned deception is, it is still nothing but deception. But, when I saw that Stephen was about to die again, there could be a "Harrier stand up" and said: This is worth a "Wow", right? , This is more than simple goodwill.
Bloom finds the happiness and freedom he has lost for a long time from Penelope, and gets the opportunity to come back and the motivation to live from Stephen. But Stephen was on a stage without flowers and applause, lonely waiting for himself to be swallowed by the shadows after being pulled down by the curtain. Is this a "scam" at all?
Bloom finally exposed the lie that his brother had told with his life from the discoloration of the blood stain. Then he knelt down and wept.
Although, Stephen is dead; although, Penelope was cheated; although, Bang Bang has left; although, the Diamond Dog is still alive. . . But it doesn't matter anymore. As Stephen said: The perfect scam is that every participant gets what they want.
As a result, everyone got something they had been asking for for a long time. And Stephen got his imperfect but perfect curtain call.
I looked forward to this movie for more than a year before I found a version that I could watch. After watching the trailer, I mistakenly thought it was a love scene between Adiren Brody and Rachel Weisz. It happens that Brody and Weisz are both actors I like very much. So although the final feature film is not the main theme of love, but "deception in deception" is also a classic theme of film and television works.
It's just that the four clues of brotherhood, deception, grievances between master and disciple, and true love in fake dramas are a little messy. Especially the cooperation between Diamond Dog and Stephen and the anti-water is really very abrupt. However, there are some very small details in the film that can make people smile.
But it may be that the foundation I miss for a year for this film is too thick. So when the film is over, I still want to ask: Is this over? It's not as good as my "year of yearning"!
So, it is very bad to miss a movie for too long. Because the longer you miss in your heart, the higher your expectation. The higher the expectation value, the greater the disappointment value. Therefore, to me, "Bloom Brothers" means "tastes like tin foil".
However, maybe even if you don't have a year to wait, it still tastes like tin foil. .
