Near the end, I saw the male protagonist going to return the baby and was surrounded by the police.
Guess, was killed?
This is what almost all tragic movies do: when a bad guy is ready to be a good guy, he gets killed as a bad guy. Is it for the past bad, atonement?
(For the time being, let’s use the simple terms of “good people” and “bad people”.)
On the contrary, when a good person rarely makes bad things, he often makes jokes or mistakes.
Change comes at a price. It is said with joy that if you are a bad person and become a good person, you will lack the experience of being a good person at the beginning; if you are used to being a good person and change to be a bad person, you will lack the experience of being a bad person.
So what is being a bad person, or a good person?
Thinking about it, being a bad person means being too aggressive, exceeding the limits of hunting and self-protection; being a good person means being lacking in aggression and being nakedly exposed to the external environment. Injured like an Aries.
Well, I finally saw the end of the movie: fortunately, I was not killed, and I could be given a light sentence if I was treated as a surrender.
No matter how real it is, at least this ending is warmer (and not overly hilarious).
At the end of the film, the male protagonist raises his hands high, ready to do the trick. That shot was really shocking. That is a state in which a person completely removes his defenses and is free to cut and punish.
I still feel that this state is quite dangerous for a creature. This is the state of mind of a person who is ready to completely atone for himself, and the desire to be a new person.
Only by being a bad person, having deep self-remorse, wanting to be a good person, and withstood the huge price to be paid in the change, can you become a qualified good person.
To put it more fundamentally, only after experiencing a life that is completely offensive (the "bad person" life), will you be desperate for the kind of life where you let go of your guard and feel the trust, safety, and warmth between people with all your heart (" good people" life).
Therefore, in fact, the key to the entanglement is not to be a "good person" or a "bad person", but to learn to balance the rigidity and softness in oneself.
The beauty of this balance is also reflected in this film. One is the parents of the kidnapped baby. It looks like a noble and wealthy family, but it is not a kind of person who only eats, drinks and has fun. In the face of adversity, the restraint, rationality and grasp of people's hearts, kindness and tolerance shown are very rare.
The other is a young mother who has been a temporary mother to a baby. Her calmness, gentleness, and firmness are rare.
The killer boss from another movie, "The Killer Has No Vacation." This is an absolute bad guy, but he is not contradictory at all when he is a bad guy. He has his own beliefs, his own way of balancing.
See, the point is not to be a bad person and a good person, especially how absolute it is to be a good person and a bad person.
Because of the absolute, no matter what you do, jumping between the poles is endless pain.
Rather, for good and evil, people need to have their own experience and their own beliefs. Then, live without contradictions and die without regrets.
Although I want to quit, it is particularly difficult to quit: I have my sustenance for "bad people live for a thousand years", and I also have expectations for "good people will be rewarded".
Because, too many movies that get the first half right, always give different answers in the second half.
And the truth is, there is no answer. ——Be a good person or a bad person, you will die if you make mistakes in judgment. If you are a good person, if your heart is too soft, you will die; if you are a bad person, you will die in the hands of more ruthless people. Without faith you will die, with faith you will die.
The most meaningful thing in life is not the ending, but the process. In this process, the most valuable thing is that you accept yourself (you find the balance of various contradictions in your heart, and walk on the path you want to take, regardless of whether it is the right path for many people - "many people" are very A deceptive "many" is difficult to verify for individuals with limited experience. It is a loss to give up one's own feelings and inner voice for an unverifiable "many").
