Remembering and selective amnesia

This is a movie suitable for one person to watch. The plot setting is very novel. I thought it would be a memory fragment that disrupts the order of time and space. This is better than it. It tells a complete story. The time point of the hero’s memory is frozen. Before his wife's death, Zeke's grief caused Zeke to selectively forget about his wife's death, and everything after this time would be forgotten once he fell asleep.

At the beginning, a friend sent him a letter saying that it was something his wife had to do after death, and he just did as instructed. Why did he do this, and then slowly realized that it was for revenge

You think Zeke is a good guy, he is calm when threatening people, he shoots with a skillful posture, one shot killed the dog, one headshot, we applauded him, but he was not a novice at first sight, we never doubted He, he also has the number of Auschwitz concentration camp, and cried bitterly when he found it was a survivor

At the end, I woke up. It turned out that he found the fourth person in the letter. He knew that it was him when he heard the fourth person. The fourth person also said that the victim would not like to listen to Wagner’s piano music, but he still It is said that the song goes without borders, in fact, it is either that the two of them are friends or enemies, and we choose to believe that they are enemies. The fourth person said that he had been trying to forget his past self. When he saw Zeke, he hugged him happily. Zeke pushed him away. I thought the fourth person was happy to find him. Zeke read out the name with The gun forced him to reveal the facts. Once he must have forced the Jews into the laboratory. The fourth person and he used to be the guards of Auschwitz concentration camp. The fourth person always wanted to forget who he was, under the threat of guns. He revealed that he was the guard of Auschwitz concentration camp. His child asked how many people you killed, and he said he didn't know how many people. And said that your name is the name in the letter. Zeke didn't believe it, he thought it was a lie, and said that they had exchanged numbers in prison and escaped. Zeke looked at the number he was told, and shot the fourth person to death. Then he said that when he remembered, he shot himself.

He has always forgotten the truth that he is a caretaker, tampered with his memory to be a victim of Auschwitz, changed his name and changed his surname to survive.

Maybe he and his wife are very affectionate. His friend in a wheelchair makes him wake up every day to endure the pain of losing his family, because the whole family of that good friend was killed by the caretaker except him. That friend had been staring at the phone and hadn’t eaten after having been out of the house a day. He was afraid that he would not be able to complete the task, and that he would know the facts and then ran away. When Zeke killed the young Nazi, he asked Zeke to call the police, which meant surrendering. Instead of letting him run away, the friend said that the first time I saw him, he knew that he was also a victim, and then I knew that he saw his enemy. He planned this incident. He told Zeke that he knew that a guard of Auschwitz had immigrated to the United States, but he actually knew two

Why did he write Zeke’s original name in the letter? Maybe he hated him in the past, hated that name, he brought himself into the victim’s mind, and he didn’t doubt the authenticity of the letter.

He is a sinner, and running away from him is to punish the offender. Even the old man at Twilight cannot let him forget his sins. The victims punished them in another way, even after the statute of limitations

    It's very moving, but the reversal is a bit sloppy

    Absurd satire. Norris can play the role of an employee of the Imperial Security Bureau in the future.
