Most of the opinions of the second poster are wrong. It can be seen that there are still so many people who really watch the game with one mind and two.
1. Rain man fantasies.
My younger brother lived with his elder brother when he was young, but at that time he was too young, about three to four years old (see the photo of the two elder brothers), so the memory is not clear.
The elder brother's name is Lei Meng, and his younger brother mispronounced "rain man" as "rain man" when he was young.
After the elder brother was sent away, the family no longer mentioned it, and the younger brother gradually forgot that there was such a person in the family, thinking that he was the only child. Occasionally I think of the clips of getting along with his brother "Rain Man" when he was a child, thinking that "Rain Man" is his fantasised friend.
2. The elder brother did not burn his younger brother
When I was a child, my brother was almost scalded by boiling water. My brother yelled anxiously and attracted the parents. The parents mistakenly thought that the brother was going to hurt his brother. This was the fuse that caused the brother to be sent away.
The elder brother must have been repeatedly warned by his father not to hurt his younger brother, and decades later he was still chanting "Don't hurt younger brother".
3. The car represents the love and guilt of a father
In order for the second child to grow up healthily, after his mother died of illness, his father cruelly sent away the eldest child who was born with a disability.
Therefore, the father's heart is full of guilt and debt to the boss.
He never mentioned the boss at home, because that was the pain in his heart.
There is only the car full of memories. He once took his eldest son with insufficient IQ every Saturday to teach him to drive patiently in the slow lane.
The eldest son must be very happy. The father praised him as "a good driver." This rare compliment was remembered by the eldest son Raymond for decades.
For the father, all company was given to the second child and the boss was sacrificed. Only that car is the only warm connection that belongs to the eldest son and him, so he doesn't want the second child to drive and share.
In the father's heart, he gave too little to the eldest son. The more he felt guilty to the eldest son, the more strict he was on the eldest son.
The second child stole a car and got into an accident. Instead of ransoming like other parents, he let the 16-year-old boy squat in the detention center for two days.
The detention center in the United States seems really scary. I don’t know if the 16-year-old brother was bullied by other gangsters.
The father was very angry. He only gave birth to the second child in his forties. The age of the two sons is very different. It can be speculated that he had to treat the eldest for many years, and then had to give up. He gave birth to the second child in middle age. Fortunately, he was a healthy child. A lot of hope is placed.
Therefore, on the one hand, he is very strict with the second child, and on the other hand he is stingy with expression.
He certainly seldom expresses his emotions, after all, expressing love for the second child seems to mean abandoning the boss.
As a result, the second son grew up very lonely. He wanted to get the love of his father, and tried to get all A's in the exam to win recognition, and wanted to get the right to drive.
Therefore, for the three fathers and sons:
For the eldest son, the car is a memory of his father's love and a rare compliment from his father.
For the second son, when he was young, what he wanted was not only the qualification to drive that car, but also the affirmation of his father. The car was just a carrier.
After he became an adult, he started a second-hand car business, and he didn't get the psychological compensation from his father's love for as many cars as he wanted.
For his father, the car is his love for the boss.
The car was also the fuse for him to break with his second child.
The car represents his deep love and ambivalence as a father.
He finally gave the car to his second son, which was a kind of low-profile petition. I let the Buddha hear the father’s voice, "Son, I’m sorry, this is just a car. Back then, the father was in trouble, but to the eldest brother. Your guilt should not be passed on to you. If you like this car, my father will leave it to you. I hope you understand that my father regrets and loves you very much."
3. About the male lead
The male protagonist is very defensive, not easy to show his sincerity, and his mouth is full of lies. Because he was injured, he never got a response from the intimacy of father and son since he was a child, so he chose to guard against it as an adult.
If you build defenses, others can't hurt him.
Her girlfriend quarreled with him, and the biggest contradiction was this. The young man didn't tell the truth and didn't express his true feelings to his lover.
The first time the male protagonist admitted that he lied, it was for his brother.
My brother wanted to watch TV. He knocked on the door of a strange woman and lied that he was a "radio and television worker" with a proficient routine. It can be seen that he usually brags.
Later, the elder brother's abnormal behavior aroused the suspicion of the owner, and he admitted that he had lied under the circumstances.
This passage is very symbolic, representing that the male protagonist has become himself for the first time because of his brotherhood.
