      This film reflects the life of the middle and lower classes in the United States. The 60-year-old Jiang Lang is just an old reporter. The attitude towards this small town has long been formed.

Whether the cause of death is explained or not is not necessarily related to the subsequent plot, as long as Just confess that your son is dead. The director's effort should be on how to slowly unravel the theme of the title with suspense. Because watching movies in this way is more natural and more suitable for the play of movie...
