warn possible spoiler ahead wilbur want to kill himself be postmodern nihilism at it bad . nothing funny in this film . the character be grotesque and self center and disloyal and dysfunctional . harbour be the only likeable person while a man who give selflessly of himself to his suicidal young brother and everyone else in his life and only to be betray and scorn ( even by his own parent ) . no one can give a reason for living to wilbur because life be just here with no ultimate reason or reference to god . harbour nevertheless try to help wilbur best he can . wilbur procedes to repay his brother by have an affair with his wife and who claim to love harbour . the affair continue even after harbour be diagnose with pancreatic cancer . when ask what a near death experience be like for wilbur ( white light . ) he respond nothing . just blackness and silence . lovely . harbour and rather than try to go on fight a almost certain death sentence from cancer and commits suicide in the hope his brother will honor his promise to look after his wife and stepdaughter and give wilbur a reason to live . his grave not even cold yet and wilbur visit hand in hand with his brother widow and stepdaughter talk of marriage ( we all know how sacred those vow be to them . why even bother . ) the movie end at a graveyard and replete with bleak scenery that leave you disturb and angry for what happen to harbour and and perhaps even wish everyone else but harbour have kill themselves . sartre would have like this movie and but not even one as twisted a he would dare to have label this trash a comedy .
