I think it was some kind of religious conviction...at one point he mentions to the red head that "We're catholic you know", so on some level I think he can't go on living..."I can't beat it," but also can't bring himself to end it, other than that one scene in the police station when he is overwhelmed with emotion.
Probably his brother and dad. Eventually, he just kept living to punish himself. Worked a dead-end job, willingly started bar fights to get hurt, and shut out any possible romantic connections.
hope for what? he leaves town to the same old building maintenance job in a tiny apartment and his nephew gets adopted by friends. at the end of the movie he does not have hope, he just seems to be a little more at peace with his life.
Saying depression isn’t real is like saying to a depressed person they are not rotting in bed, feeling hopeless, having no energy and every other symptom. Depression is just a word to describe that.
Europeans think they own realism because all their movies are about being poor while european...well, yeah sure, obviously, it's like making movies about fish swimming in water, they're all poor. Doesn't make it art.
Her kids are all dead and she's such a stupid frick up b***h she somehow managed to escape without managing to get a single kid out along with herself. But of course it's the man's fault when he wasn't even fricking there.
He was drunk and high on cocaine and lit a fire without putting the screen up while everyone in the house was asleep and somehow it's the woman's fault, you stupid frick?
you don't understand. if the roles were reversed, the man would be also found burnt dead trying to save his kids. she came out unscathed which means no attempts were made to save her chilren.
Ive seen this movie when it came out, it was like 15 years ago or some shit? A few days ago it popped on my mind for some reason. Some movies are so good, they stay with you forever.
What kept him going?

He probably had a lot of help from his family. He probably realized suicide was the easy way out.
>Are we burning daddy?
>No, you aren't burning.
by the end of the movie? hope...

A fetish for smelling women shit as he unclogs their toilets
>you can't just die
He already knew that when his ex wife said that to him.
So bleak but kino. He’s literally me, Tfw can’t beat it.
Americans trying to do realism kino, it doesn't work, sorry.
It does.
Depression isn't real. Murdering all your kids by accident and having immense grief, meanwhile, is.

>actor in dramatic film
>has more than one facial expression
this confuses the europoor

Manchester By The Sea, meanwhile, IS art.
>His Depression is Trauma-induced.
Because simply HAVING a common Mental Illness would be too far-fetched for Americans in 2016, I guess?
Frick off, Madchester is nowhere near the sea our kid.
Her overacting breaks the immersion
She did a good job what are you even talking about.
Her kids are all dead and she's such a stupid frick up b***h she somehow managed to escape without managing to get a single kid out along with herself. But of course it's the man's fault when he wasn't even fricking there.
He was drunk and high on cocaine and lit a fire without putting the screen up while everyone in the house was asleep and somehow it's the woman's fault, you stupid frick?
Yeah she was in the house. Funny how she wasn't asleep enough to fricking die in there right moron? Just as much her fault. Stupid b***h.
>He was drunk
He didn't consent to anything that happened then. Literally not his fault.
Super comment anon but remember he was drunk and male so he should've known better
you don't understand. if the roles were reversed, the man would be also found burnt dead trying to save his kids. she came out unscathed which means no attempts were made to save her chilren.
michele williams is always great
Did you watch Venom?
This film had some great shots of upper northeast scenery. Very stark and bleak in winter time
Are there any documented cases of grief inducing autistic behaviors? What a weird idea to write a script about.

is this the druk thread?
>I roasted the children.
i'm very /strongmind/ usually but i dont think i could ever cope with losing my children. how do parents with dead kids do it?
Margaret is such a better film.
>white people BAD
Frick off
how did he not end up getting charged for the killings?
accidental killings is not a crime most places
manslaughter is a crime
its not a crime to forget to put the screen on your fireplace
he admitted to drug use
he embellished the drug use to try and get convicted of a crime. he wanted to face consequences for his actions.
