The Big guy who beat himself


What the hell happened to the big guy? It looked like he beat himself to death but that makes no sense.

I don' think he beat himself to death, per se, but he was beating himself a lot. Throughout the movie it seems pretty clear, though understated, that he has self-loathing issues. We also know from the intro scene that he is a "general loose cannon". This scene is the collision of those two truths =D

I figured he couldn't beat himself to death but towards the end theres that wall with their picture and theres some writing over the ones that they lost so i figured it probably eplained it there but its not translated in the subbed version.

i'm pretty sure the untranslated writing said "apprehended" or something along those lines. and the big guy, ""ichiro suzuki,"" well he was just pissed off that his dream was aborted so so soon. he beat himself, then was caught by the authorities. thats what i got.

reply

He beat himself to stop himself from beating the people in the diner. It said on the TV report he'd killed people while in a temper and his self beating was a way for him to not hurt any more innocent people.

Yeah thats what I got from it too ...

Makes me cry almost every time I watch that scene ... Sad :(

reply

I think the writing means something like "dead", because the captured sign looks different.
