Based on the true story of the Maclean family, the movie is full of throny contradictions, depicting the emotions of people unable to express the depth of their feelings.
Neither Norman nor his father understands the true feelings which lie behind Paul’s mischievous grin and crinkly smile. Therefore, it was not until Paul's death that they realized that all they knew about Paul was that he was a genius in fly fishing.
Most of us are willing to help our family and friends, however, few people are ready to receive our aids. Norman Norman
“It is those we love and should know who elude us. But we can still love them. We can love completely without complete understanding.” As far as I am concerned, though most of the time our help is not the thing others really need, we can still try to let them know that there is someone who will be with them no matter what happens. It is our love that touches them even though everything seems to be still the same. Men passed away into dust, centuries faded away in shadow, but the river still runs through it day in day out, minute by minute. Like love that will never end.
I haven't watched this movie before, I google that few minutes ago and I think I might watch it because I love Brad Pitt very much. :) I agree with your point, the most important thing is to let people we love know they are not alone and loved by us. I like to listen to my friends' feelings about something annoying, and I often feel sorry about my lacking of strenth to help them. But know I think that, maybe most of the time, all we need is somebody to listen, support them, and stand by us, so that we can move on.
ReplyDeleteWow~ you wrote the article very well!
ReplyDeleteI agree with your opinion that we must try to help the people around us whether it will be helpful or not. If I have difficulty, I would be really glad to know that someone, especially family or friend, would support me. And that will be the energy to face any problem^ ^
