irreversible twelve years

The unexpected return of the second son has become the venting point of the family crisis. The family that is already in crisis needs such an incision to express each other's feelings, even at the cost of blushing and thick neck. The close-up is a great test for the actors, but the performance is persuasive enough, the male lead's restraint, the older brother's anger, the younger sister's disappointment, the mother's nervousness, and the sister-in-law's worry, propped up the whole movie with a weak script Film. In the repeated tensions and hesitations, the tense nerves and the hesitant stares, the director told us that mutual understanding is more important than anything else, especially between family members. Twelve years are enough to build a hard barrier between him and his family. He missed the growth of his sister, the wedding of his brother and sister-in-law, and the death of his first love. There are too many irreparable things, and it is only a drop in the bucket to repair. He is a stranger to this home, destined to leave here. What he regrets is his past indifference and selfishness, which to a certain extent has also become the source of the family crisis. It's a pity that the music and the bird at the end are a bit stiff, and some of the clips are similar to the MV, but overall it's relatively smooth, and those who have had similar experiences will feel deeply.

    Home is never a safe haven, home is the center of conflict, the stage where conflict is staged, the source of misery, a blood-connected love, and a deep-seated hatred, under the slogan of love, the darkest crime, clearly wanting to express my love But in the end I was cut off by transparent glass, I couldn't let go, I couldn't forgive, it's just the end of the world

    In fact, he came back to announce his death: once all the conflicts were put into this setting, he could feel the power of those hesitant details. The emotional outburst scene in the last 30 minutes is what Dolan is best at, just like a huge wave hitting a long dike. Family affection is a kind of helpless feeling after all, because people can only accept it passively. The two ends of the dining table are separated by the distance of the world.
