Except for the protagonist, all the protagonists

After watching "The Fighter", I felt that the whole family relationship was complicated, tense and tangled, but the protagonist Mark Wahlberg did not try to weigh this family relationship. The relationship between girlfriend Amy Adams and mother Melissa Leo Conflict (the two compete for the younger brother's dominance), the mistrust and understanding between the mother and the father (the father wants the younger brother to develop independently from the control of the mother and the older brother), the girlfriend's prejudice against the older brother Christian Bale (the girlfriend feels that he is a drug addict) The elder brother who is in prison is trash, I hope the younger brother will stay away from him), and the unstable promise of the elder brother to the younger brother (the elder brother took drugs for a long time and forgot to participate in the practice and competition of the younger brother), the mother is disappointed with the elder brother but understands (the elder brother was caught by his mother after taking drugs. expression), everything continues to deteriorate in the complicated family relationship, while the younger brother can only be very incompetent, so there are supporting roles Christian Bale, Melissa Rio, and Amy Adams. Marco Wahlberg, on the other hand, is a bit like a parental divorce (brother Christian Bale and mother Melissa Rio represent the role of a mother whose life is conceived and breast-feeding from the mother's body, and Amy Adams represents a mother who opposes maternal control after being disconnected from the mother's body and the outside world. The father figure of liberal patriarchy, the role of the real father is ignored here!) Waiting for the lawsuit to finish and see the court (the two gangs in boxing for his mentoring and helping him finally win the credit for the final victory, the court will award it, Here the court is actually the younger brother's boxing career) Whose child is he to be sentenced to!
