The man who killed the male protagonist was the navy and his wife, Reivew on American Beauty

Pay attention to the details: The hand that shoots at the male protagonist at the end is not wearing gloves. Then the navy was in the room with the gun in the gloved hand. And the clothes are not wet. It can be seen that it is not the person who braved the heavy rain to kill. So why do you say it is the wife of the Navy, because the Navy is gay, and his wife has long known about this, which has a lot of scenes in the movie. The wife of the navy found out that he was rejected by the male protagonist, and killed the male protagonist in order to seal up the navy and keep the dignity of the navy. The navy didn't want his wife to have only pain for the rest of her life, so he simply killed his wife. But he was afraid of being discovered by the police, so he wore gloves, creating the illusion that his wife committed suicide. When watching the director's cut, the director also said: There is a detail that reveals who the murderer is, and this scene is the white glove. If it is the navy, then this thread is too superficial. But if it's the Navy Wife, the film immediately becomes divine. don't you think? In fact, the ending is pretty convoluted. It's not as simple as you think.
