David, he is a child, and always been a child.

************這篇影評可能有雷************

He is a child until his father’s death. His life marked as he is 9 years old, after watching his mother death. It is like he never grows up and become who he is right now. He blames all of it to his father. From that moment on, he does everything against his father’s wish. Such as always late; bring first met Katie to his family party; even married to Katie is after talked between his father and him.(She is never belong to us. Isn』t it good…); they move from Vermont to NYC, after his father talked to him.
One thing interesting in film, his father said why Katie with him is she want to live a better life, not now, most important thing he said, she is like your mother. HE look over her again, I think the answer is yes.
On the other hand, he is afraid of his father too. He also wants to make proud of his father. If one thing is against David wish, but he can』t said no. There is a thing become grown in his heart which makes his character more twisted and lost control…

Katie and he might be really loves each other. But the love it’s different from each other. David love Katie is like she gave him mother-like feelings. Like he said, she loves everything you like that she didn』t like. She gave him unselfish love, although she knew there is something wrong with David more than one times. She is still with him. On David comprehensive, this love should obey him, Katie like his privacy. He can』t stand someone steals it, which means the boat far away from the shore; Katie wants to go a medical school...

Why Katie loves him so much, I didn』t see so much that she look on David『s money. Maybe they have the same childhood; David just gave her the pure love. Although ten years past, she still felt that David loves her so much. But the way of love changed and twisted.

Two weak people but really matched!

David is under the edge of lose control…

The climax of this film is the talk between David and his father. He finally got the answer of why he became like this. The childhood nightmare always like devil follows him, change him, and make him. Then finally cleared, but it’s too late. He still is a child, play disappearing game with everyone. He might be thought it’s a excellent revenge. But he knew he left something…

At the end of visiting his dying father, David said I miss her so much. I think most of her is said Katie and some of said his mother. In David subconscious, Katie is his mother. He gave her violence death like his father gave her mother.

But after his father death, he feels free eventually.

All good things come to an end, but happened before...
