There is no right or wrong in the whole film, no moral judgment, no justice to come.
This is life: impermanence.
Many people believe that when something goes wrong, someone will uphold justice, and when crime occurs in society, it will be dealt with. The reality is that there is far more darkness hidden than exposure to sunlight. After all, almost half of the day is dark, not to mention a world of 7 billion people?
The world is full of mysterious rivers, silently flowing in every corner, devouring the seven deadly sins of human nature. No one can escape this undercurrent, the only difference is whether it is sparkling with sunlight or disappearing with the waves.
Jimmy kills Dave and ends the nightmare that has plagued him and Sean for years. Childhood tragedy planted a seed of guilt out of instinctive selfishness. After reaching adulthood, the three of them all chose to cover up this young seedling with stones desperately, but they all seemed stumbled and clumsy in the face of life. The shadows in their hearts, projected onto the women around them one by one, unconsciously stirred this vortex over the years, and involved more people. Is it the so-called fate karma, or is it real cowardice? In fact, this is just the most real side of man: to live.
The wives in the film are the true portrayal of most men choosing women. The shadow of the mother, the lack of the heart, the substitution of childhood family scenes, the use of familiar inertial patterns to deal with love and marriage, naturally buried all kinds of luck and misfortune. The good news, however, is that those who can come together and make a marriage contract are "evenly matched."
Therefore, if you want a person who truly walks side by side, first of all, you must also be a complete person.
