What the book does for you that the movie doesn’t is builds on the differences of the father and son and resentment they have for each other. But when this all goes down it’s the father who reaches out to him and supports him emotionally. The tragedy and the love in all the same moment is so much emotion it’s hard not to tear up. It’s real and raw but shows the complexity of the relationships you have with others.
