Because of love, it has made a big mistake, which is even more heartbreaking. This kind of injury will be attached to your heart for a lifetime, lingering and unforgettable. Regret haunts the body like a shadow, a lifetime of guilt and anxiety.

Patrick is in the process of choosing, he has his own values, he is rational, he has his own right and wrong standards, right and wrong are absolute to him. The film arranged for him a partner Angela is a sentimental person. So, at the final selection juncture, we saw a strong confrontation between Patrick's inner rationality and his girlfriend's sensibility, but in the end, rationality prevailed over sensibility. Amanda went back to where she was. Whether Amanda's future is lucky or unfortunate, we don't know, and Patrick doesn't know either, but he just thinks what everyone else is doing is wrong, and it's right that the child should go back to his mother, he is Are you gambling? Take Amanda's future as a bet? Is he wrong? Everyone has their own values, is he selfish? He is a complete rationalist. He decides what is right or wrong in this life for Amanda from his own standpoint.

Everyone gathered, brewing a conspiracy, a beautiful conspiracy, a conspiracy to make Amanda live a happy life from now on, but this conspiracy was finally exposed, and even paid a painful price. They're right, but can it really be done? In this legal society, they should use other institutions and methods to save Amanda and even many other children who have the same fate as Amanda. The sheriff, detective, and uncle can only rescue one child by kidnapping, right? And the way is illegal.

This is a battle, a battle between reason and sensibility, a battle between legality and humanity.

At the end of the film, we can see that Amanda is not happy after returning to her original place, and her future can be imagined. When Patrick and Amanda were sitting on the sofa together and watching the cartoon, he felt in his heart. What's the idea? Will he regret his decision? One decision, the impact of a lifetime, and more than one person's lifetime, the price of this decision is too high, but Patrick didn't think for a long time, which reflects Patrick's rationality, Patrick is terrible, in this society inside. At the same time, he was destined to be alone.

As the truth is revealed step by step, the film also weighs heavily on values. What is right and what is wrong is gradually becoming blurred. Sometimes, right and wrong are not absolute, right and wrong are relative to people. We think it's right, then it's right, we think it's wrong, it's just wrong, it's that simple, so to speak. It's just that in this complex society, when we think that something is right or wrong, we must not only start from ourselves, but also consider the standpoint of the people around us, so right and wrong become complicated.

So right and wrong have no meaning.
