A Few Points About Fate in Mystic River

A few points about fate:

In the movie, Jimmy said that if it was him who got in the car, then he would not have the courage to chase after his daughter's biological mother, then his daughter would not die. Finally, before David died, he asked if it was not him who got in the car, but the Jimmy, what will happen without the if.

If Jimmy hadn't stole with Lao Ray, then Lao Ray wouldn't have told him, Jimmy wouldn't have gone to jail, and won't take revenge on Lao Ray If Jimmy hadn't killed his daughter's boyfriend's dad, then he wouldn't have objected to them talking In love, they don't have to run away, and the boyfriend's younger brother won't kill his girlfriend because of his love for his brother.

If David's wife hadn't been weak enough to tell the truth, then David wouldn't have died.

It is not fate that determines character, nor character that determines fate, but how responsible you are for your life.

There is no fate, fate is in the hands of those who want to live well. If the story continues, I'm sure Sean will bring Jimmy to justice. I wish there was this if.
