It strikes me because of the unspeakable confrontation between the three characters in the film. Father and son, father and mother, mother and son. Their roles are full of contradictions, they love each other, but hurt each other. It feels as if only hurt can express their love. This relationship is regrettable.
The opening of the story is full of suspense, and the tense confrontation runs from the beginning to the end. The mother conceives the protagonist because of a night love of the father, but the mother leaves the father to give birth to the protagonist alone. From childhood to adulthood, the protagonist follows his mother and travels up and down. He has always longed for his father's love, but he can't get any clues about his father from his mother's mouth. As an adult, the protagonist tries to leave his mother to live alone, but after being deceived by a tobacco dealer, he returns to his mother and has to rely on his mother again. However, he still hated his mother's silent appearance, and he began to hate his father's mean character. He wants to get their attention, but fights them all the time.
The death of her mother seemed a bit tragic. To the death, she firmly refused to marry her father, denied her role as his wife, and never told her son about her illness. The father binds his son with a loan, as if only then can he truly take on the role of a father. The protagonist cannot recognize the role of his son, nor can he see through the hearts of his father and mother. He just silently accepts this home that is not his home, and quietly plays the role that is not like his son. In this chaotic and complicated society, there is an equal sign between what he gains and what he loses.
The two white shirts let the protagonist understand his mother's consistent maternal love for him, and the final inscription of a suicide note made the protagonist understand his father's unspeakable fatherly love. It was only after the confrontation that he suddenly realized the world and cried bitterly.
In this tragic life, in addition to the glorious humanity, the few remaining emotions are all put into confrontation. Can our unspeakable feelings only be achieved through confrontation?
I want to ask you, do you love them?
