Chapter 2128 Chapter 2128 The Art of the Ending
Malcolm finally believed Cole's words, and he also realized that these ghosts have been around Cole because they need Cole's help. Only by truly listening can these voices disappear.
With Malcolm's help, Cole successfully helps a little girl and exposes the truth about her death - she was ill for two years and eventually died, and now her little sister is sick too, her father almost It's getting old overnight. But the fact is that her stepmother had been poisoning her food and eventually killed her.
When the truth was revealed, the little girl left in peace and never appeared again.
Cole finally understood that the appearance of those ghosts was not malicious, they just needed his help. This made Cole's personality gradually brighter, and he even participated in the school's stage play. The whole thing was a success, a consummation of merit, and Malcolm was able to retire.
Malcolm watched Cole's stage play at school. Seeing Cole's cheerful and bright smile on his face, Nicholas couldn't help but also smiled, but parting was coming, which still made people feel a little sad.
Nicholas let out a long sigh of relief. He must admit that the quality of the whole movie is beyond imagination. It really cannot be regarded as a horror movie. Many shoddy horror films in the past ten years have been too good; but Nicholas is still a little disappointed. Compared with Hugo's previous works, it still seems too satisfactory. It can be said that it is excellent. When choosing this work, the vision is still worthy of recognition, but it seems a bit conservative.
However, the movie seems to have no intention of ending here, which makes Nicholas frown. Does the ending need to be dragged on? But Nicholas' attention was quickly attracted by the big screen.
After Lynn got off work, he took Cole home from school. Unexpectedly, there was a car accident ahead, and he was stuck in traffic, unable to leave. Cole really told his mother the secret of his heart for the first time, but Lynn obviously didn't want to believe it. Looking at his mother who was sitting there blankly, Cole said anxiously, "Mom, what are you thinking? Do you think I'm a freak?"
Lynn said with a serious face, "Look at me, I will never think you are a freak, never will, understand?" Cole nodded, his eyes became slightly gentle, Lynn withdrew Lost his sight, he just felt his brain was confused, "Let me think about it."
Cohen thought about it seriously, "Grandma asked me to say hello to you, she said she was sorry for taking the pendant, she liked it so much." Lin En was completely stunned by this sentence, "Grandma sometimes comes to see me .”
Lynn obviously still didn't want to believe Cole, she shook her head, "Cole, this is wrong, you know grandma has passed away."
"I know, she wants me..." Cole tried to continue explaining, but Lynn started to stop him. This time Cole was not afraid, and insisted loudly, "She shook me to tell you, she has I went to see you dance." Lin En was completely stunned by this sentence, "She said that when you were young, you had a fight with her, just before your dance performance, you thought she didn't want to watch you dance, but she went to She's hiding behind, you didn't see her, she said you were like an angel." Lynn has completely collapsed, this is a secret that only she and her mother know, and it is absolutely impossible for Cole to know Yes, the tears burst directly, "She said, you once went to her graveyard to ask a question, and she said the answer was...every day."
Lynn was already crying, but Cole asked suspiciously, "What did you ask?"
Lin En was completely crushed by this fact, and couldn't stop crying at all. He could only choke out his voice from his throat, "I...have I made her proud?"
Nicholas thought he was ready to be sensational, but at the moment when he saw Lynn and Cole hugging each other, he was still a little moved. This scene is still very necessary, because it sublimates the family affection of the whole movie , making the whole theme complete. This further improves the completion of the movie.
But just when Nicholas thought this was the finale, the movie actually gave another unexpected surprise.
Malcolm returned home and found his wife had fallen asleep on the sofa, he found Anna was watching their wedding video, he thought his wife no longer loves him, they have drifted away, but at this moment , but he realized that Anna still loves him. Malcolm remembered Cole's words: talk to Anna while she sleeps so she can hear him without her being conscious.
So, Malcolm called out in a very sad and nostalgic voice, "Anna."
Anna, who was sleeping soundly, responded softly, "I miss you so much."
This made Malcolm's voice choked up. He hadn't talked to Anna for a long time, so he could only say in fragments, "I miss you too."
"Why? Malcolm?" Anna raised her voice and asked. Malcolm's eyes were filled with tears, and he asked urgently, "What? What did you say?" Anna asked sadly, "You Why did you leave me?" This made Malcolm completely stunned, and said full of doubts, "I never left you."
But Anna didn't respond. She adjusted her sleeping position slightly, and a metal object in her right hand fell to the ground, making a crisp sound. The eyes of all the audience in the entire cinema followed Malcolm, and then saw a ring slipping to the ground!
Malcolm was stunned. He looked, and Anna still had the wedding ring on her hand, while the familiar place on his hand was empty. In an instant, all the memories came to my mind, Cole said, "I can see dead people, they don't know they are dead", every memory fragment is crushing all Malcolm's thoughts, and all the details are pieced together Wake up, the terrible and cruel truth crushed Malcolm.
he died.
"Huh", Nicholas was completely stunned, he couldn't believe his eyes, he just looked at the big screen in horror, his brain stopped functioning completely, he didn't have any thoughts at all, he just stared at the picture on the screen dumbfounded. Faces torn by despair. Tears flowed out along with the shock like this, it was completely uncontrollable, even the breathing had completely stopped, only the sad melody was constantly turning around in my ears.
Hugo said, "Did you watch it carefully?" The details came to my mind, but they were still not enough. For the first time, Nicholas realized that he didn't watch the movie carefully enough. The movie is not only the mother-child relationship between Cole and Lynn, nor the husband-wife relationship between Malcolm and Anna, but also everyone's fear and panic in the face of death. The kind of reluctant parting makes time last forever. Stopped at that moment of that day.
Malcolm's clock was permanently fixed on that night, Vincent's pain could not be undone, his persistence in helping Cole with all his strength, and the torment of drifting away from his wife... made him reluctant to leave, and always Hovering around Cole. Because, he needs Cole's help-not only he helped Cole, but Cole helped him.
Malcolm, dead, already dead at the very beginning of the movie.
This fact caused Nicholas to crash completely in an instant, his vision was blurred by tears, his reason was completely out of control, and his emotions were roaring like a stormy sea.
Malcolm finally accepted the fact that he was dead, and sat beside Anna, with a lonely and reluctant expression on his face, and with a slight smile, he said softly, "I think I can go now, I just Needed to do a few things, I had to help someone, I think I did. I also want to tell you something, you are always the most important thing to me, always will be. I love you, sleep well. Start tomorrow Everything will change."
"Good night, Malcolm."
"Good night, dear."
Malcolm's amber eyes gleamed with crystal tears, and then slowly closed. In the darkness, he recalled the happy waltz on their wedding.
The movie, it's over, it's over.
But Nicholas sat on the chair in a daze, unable to move at all, and he had no way to take into account the reactions of other people around him. He just sat there completely frozen, watching the subtitles that kept sliding up, letting his emotions go It was raging, the tears almost seemed to be out of control, and kept falling, the emotion that swept over him was so violent and violent that he could hardly breathe.
This is not a horror movie, nor is it a movie about family affection or helping children. This is a movie about how human beings deal with death. Death, the pain and suffering of death, is a test for everyone.
Malcolm was the one who left but chose to stay; Anna and Lynn were the ones who stayed but never really left; Cole was the one who could see the ones who stayed and the ones who left and he helped those who left People fulfill their wishes, and also help those who stay behind make up for their regrets. Family, love, friendship, these emotional fetters make life and death so tangled and painful, but also make parting eternal.
It's hard to imagine, Nicholas couldn't imagine that the story would end like this, his brain went blank in an instant, and he couldn't even call up any memory about the movie, he only knew: he had to watch the movie again The movie is not only for the movie, but also for his inner commemoration - a parting that only belongs to him, if... just what if, those people who he thought had gone far away are still by his side? Can he find his "Cole"?
Thinking of Hugo's words before the movie screening, Nicholas burst into tears.
