"Manchester-by-the-Sea"

No one cares about the reason behind a handyman's reticence and uncertainty, they only think he was born that way; no one wants to accept a middle-aged man who lost three children because of his own fault, causing the family to break up, they only think he is He reaps the consequences; even the person he loves chooses to flee, because no one is willing and able to bear the weight of despair and pain with him, no matter what, choosing to continue to live like a corpse may be the greatest punishment for him , Maybe some pain can never be resolved, maybe regret occupies most of our lives.

    It's a bit too delicate.

    A story that is so sad that it makes people break down, but it was made by the director without any surprises. Perhaps this is the outstanding point of this movie. The subtle changes in the relationship between the protagonist and the nephew make people feel the weight of family and relatives in our feelings; in the last scene of the movie, the hero and nephew are fishing at sea, the biting sea breeze is not warm, everyone seems to keep it The helplessness and frustration at the beginning of the movie, maybe this is life.

Manchester by the Sea quotes

  • Lee Chandler: You know, I've seen a school of sharks tear a boat to pieces like it was made of cardboard because some kid threw a band-aid in the water.

    Patrick: Oh, yeah...

    Lee Chandler: Yeah, he did! Sometimes the only way to keep them off is to throw the kid directly in the ocean to distract them!

    Patrick: Shut up. Sharks don't even swim in schools!

    Lee Chandler: Huh? He says sharks don't swim in schools. Smart kid.

  • Patrick: You were a tremendous help.

    Lee Chandler: I didn't ask to sit down there.

    Patrick: You can't make small talk like every other grown-up in the world?

    Lee Chandler: No.

    Patrick: You can't talk about boring bullshit for half an hour? "Hey, how about those interest rates?" "Hey, I lost my Triple A card." Like everybody else?

    Lee Chandler: No, sorry.

    [pause]

    Patrick: You're a fucking asshole.
