The end result is that the prisoner is dead. A boring and vulgar ending, right? . . Mainly depends on the plot.

This is a film adapted from a novel of the same name. I will paste the following details for you.

Brief introduction of novel content

The story "Lovely Bones" is gloomy. It describes the thoughts of a teenage girl after being raped and murdered. The narrator is the deceased himself, and the first sentence of the novel is: "1973 65438+February 6th, I was only 14 years old when I was murdered." The protagonist tells about the influence of her murder on her family, the police investigation and her situation after entering heaven. The author looks down from heaven with the eyes of 14-year-old girl Susie, and observes the world she left like "a fish floating in the sky". Of course, what she saw was not what she was happy to see: her mother was deeply saddened by her death; Father beat his girlfriend Clarissa and thought her daughter's death was her fault. The real murderer was neighbor Harvey, but the police failed to track him down and let him escape. Susie followed and observed his whereabouts in heaven. Susie also has a good friend Ruth and a younger brother on earth, and Susie's soul keeps appearing in front of them. Ruth, a good friend, has never forgotten her. When she grows up, she will be a witness in a criminal trial wholeheartedly. The author finally said goodbye to them in Susie's tone. . . A 14-year-old girl was raped and killed by a serial killer and her body was dismembered. If such a case appears in the American media, it may not cause a sensation. If it is used as the material of perfunctory novels, it may be a detective who wins by plot. But what about Alice, a woman writer? However, Sebald found another way, devoted his sincere feelings and expressed a tearful song of affection. As the first crystallization of parents' love, Susie is a good girl, although she is not as clever as her sister Linxi. She helped her father make sailing crafts with glass bottles in his spare time, from which he realized his father's nostalgia for his grandfather. When I took a snapshot of my mother, I understood her frustration that she had to be a housewife because of her higher education. She is inseparable from her sister, who is one year younger than her. When my brother Buckley was dying, he stepped forward and took him to the hospital for emergency treatment. She can even have intimate communication with her drunken and flashy grandmother. But it is such a lovely little girl who was ravaged and dismembered by gangsters after her death. Only one elbow was found. Sha Meng's family was devastated by the tragedy. Father Jack is in a trance. After providing suspicious clues to the police many times, he was injured and disabled when he went to arrest the suspect at night. Mother Abigail couldn't stand the loss of her daughter, so she managed to get along with the inspector and then ran away from home. My sister grew up overnight in grief and went to the murderer's house to steal evidence regardless of her life; My four-year-old brother was traumatized when he learned that his sister had passed away. Grandma came to her son-in-law's house to do housework without hesitation, and injected vitality into this family with her optimism and openness. Neighbors and teachers and students of the school spontaneously organized a memorial ceremony, and everyone mourned the dead and comforted their loved ones. In the past ten years, Susie's former classmates have all graduated from college and embarked on their own life paths. Even her family seems to have forgotten the lost members of the family, although the misfortune and sadness brought by her disaster always hang over the whole family and linger. ..... When my father had a heart attack, my mother rushed back after hearing the news, and it was inevitable to meet her family. When my father came home from the hospital, the whole family was reunited. At this moment, Susie's soul, who was watching from the side, realized that a family is like a human skeleton. Even if one piece is broken or missing, the bone will eventually become complete. As a missing part, although she was attached to this family and everyone felt sorry in her memory, after this disaster and grief, the whole family finally integrated in. The title of "Lovely Bones" just points out this theme. Maybe it's because of the current family crisis in America. In recent years, quite a few American writers have devoted themselves to the creation of family novels, but most of them focus on the marriage and love of young people, so they are more like romantic novels. Alice Sibard's works are full of humor, wisdom, hope and mysterious charm. She has written for The New York Times and The Chicago Tribune, and now lives in California with her husband and famous writer Glenn David Gore.

Supplement: It's good that the landlord knows. There are many mixed comments about this film, so I suggest reading the original novel when I have the opportunity to express the theme of "lovely bones" in depth.
