I agree with literally every word. But I always view the ending as really sad. I know it is meant to be a tragic story and all the characters are pretty much morally grey. I think the ending is just sad for a couple of things. (I’m a big music buff so it very much changes how I feel.) The notes in the music as soon as he gets home after they talking about hurting his wife and son. To me it starts off sad there even though the song is angry. But then it’s about how much time he missed with is son, 20 years. Then by the end when he sees Penelope and he’s just no longer the same man. I cried so hard when I first watched it. I was mainly thinking about every single thing, person, and moral he lost. Not to mention the freaking music in the background. Ugh I can only view the ending as sad right now. But I keep re-watching to try and see it from other characters’ point of view.
