“Manchester by the Sea”

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manchester_by_the_Sea_(film)

Spoiler alert

Distance between Daddy and his little kids
Distance between life and death
Distance between a stove and flammable floor
Distance in fire
Distance between home and a conenience store
Distance between crazy fun and a tragedy
Distance between memories and a fact
Distance betweeen inexhaustible love and a mistake
Distance between alchole and life
Distance between a husband and his ex-wife
Distance between an uncle and his nephew
Distance between trauma and a life in front
Distance between Manchester by the sea and Boston
Distance between a boy and an alcoholic mother
Distance between two brothers
Distance between friends
Distance between male friends and a wife
Sea and a boat as hopeful Distance between the nephew’s new life and the uncle’s irrecoverable wounded life

I used to think a movie which connote various kinds of distance between things is great movie, but the “Manchester by the Sea” shows more (or rather should I say, none?)

One way direction towards lost kids as infinity distance, immeasurable distance...
That’s why this movie is so heavy and bring people at a loss for words.

This is not at all just a story of one guy trying to have his life over again.
Rather, he gave up that and stood in front of the fact.

Excellent movie.
