「7つの贈り物」"seven pounds" [Impression]
私はこの映画を推理小説を読み解くように観ることを勧める。
主人公は国税庁の滞納調査官のベン・トーマス。何故彼が、他人の行動を調べているのか、親友が何故、その計画を実行することを心配するのか、徐々に行動の目的や理由がわかって来る筈だ。
そして、概ねのことが推測出来た頃に、恋愛ドラマに様変わりする。
そして、最後は切ないヒューマンドラマだったと感じるだろう。
因みに、原題のseven poundsのpoundsの意味合いが調べてみてもよくわからなかった。
I encourage you to watch this movie as if you were reading a detective novel.
The main character is Ben Thomas, a delinquent investigator of the National Tax Agency. You should gradually understand the purpose and reason of his actions, why he is investigating the actions of others, why his best friends are worried about carrying out the plan.
Then, when you can guess the general idea, it turns into a romantic drama.
And at the end you will feel that it was a sad human drama.
By the way, I couldn't understand the meaning of the sounds of seven pounds in the original title.
