Responsibility and punishment will come, and we will grow up
Young, single-minded, unrestrained, daring, intelligent and full of childishness, Frank, a seventeen-year-old boy, was not yet an adult, but already had adventures that countless people could never experience in their lifetime. In just two years, he was able to swindle millions of dollars from banks, travel around the country pretending to be a Pan Am co-pilot, and also disguise himself as a lawyer and doctor. Finally, by virtue of his ability, he also passed the judicial examination. And such a he, not even eighteen years old, but like a man in his twenties, in a luxury car with the beauty of direct travel.
Whether it's a one-night fling or a long relationship, he can face it with ease. But has been chasing him carl luck is very bad, just appeared is a dull character, no personality, career and marriage are not smooth middle-aged man, in the colleagues are not welcomed by everyone, the boss also do not see themselves, every day is work, even Christmas is still in the police station to stay, and also by a 17-year-old child played everywhere. Two people a run, a chase, would have been each other's natural enemies. However, on Christmas Eve, Carl's phone rang repeatedly, the other side of the phone was Frank, lonely and isolated Frank, Carl listened to it and recognized Frank's pretence, he happily broke Frank's confidence, also being this time, Carl became Frank's reliance.
Carl is the only person Frank can say Merry Christmas to at Christmas, and he is also the bearer of Frank's pranks and the bragger. He is the one who Frank can willingly put on the handcuffs himself, the one who can bring Frank back to his hometown from a foreign country. On Christmas after Christmas, Carl would go to see Frank, he brought Frank a second life, he understood Frank's childishness, and he also had an elder-like heart for Frank. He knows that all Frank wants is to be reunited with his family and to live with his father and mother.
We saw in the movie, Frank ran back to his mother's hometown and saw her family happy and harmonious. This is also the reason why he later became infatuated in his fiancée's home. After his father died, he looked at his mother's happy new family, separated by a door inside the warmth that he could never get, that childish look, and the uncontrollable tears that finally uncovered Frank's fragile and helpless heart. Fortunately, there is still a Carl by his side, and the two people have turned from enemies to friends, and even become friends, also let the plot from dark to light, obscure dark with hope and light.
In fact, in Frank's body, we can see our young selves, teenagers do not know the sky is high, the future days are still very long, no time to consider the consequences, so we will squander their bodies, waste their youth, as far as possible to avoid any punishment. Carl, on the other hand, is the guy who is always running after us, keeping us on our toes, a responsibility and an obligation that must be assumed. We certainly can't run forever, but when we're young, everyone feels unique, everyone feels like the protagonist. At some point in time, we look back and realize that what we once held so dear is long gone.
Along the way we walked too fast, rushed and had no time to take too much into account, many things can not be firmly grasped. So when it is lost from our hands when we have not noticed, that moment, we are in the plane to hear their father died Frank, how much regret in the heart, how much sadness can not change the fact that has happened. Finally we could not escape Carl's capture, sort out what we had and what we had lost, face all the responsibilities and punishments that should have been faced long ago, from that day on, we stopped, not running, honestly next to Carl, and that day, we called "growing up.
“At some point in time, we look back and realize that what we once held so dear is long gone”
Point to think ✌️✌️
