A Good Person

After years of suffering and addiction, Allison finally begins to find a way forward after a series of painful revelations and moments of honesty. Her journey towards recovery is sparked by her decision to enter a rehabilitation center, where she starts to truly confront her past, her guilt, and her responsibilities. The turning point comes when she reconnects with Nathan, apologizing for her past mistakes and expressing her hope for a better future, even if they cannot physically be together at the moment. Meanwhile, Daniel’s death leaves behind a letter of wisdom for Allison. In it, he describes how he learned that perfection in life is impossible, likening it to building a model train—something that can be designed and controlled, but never truly perfect. He urges Allison to accept her fate and love it, embracing life with all its flaws and imperfections. The film closes with the three of them—Ryan, Nathan, and Allison—gathered on the porch of Daniel’s house, symbolizing their shared journey of healing and acceptance. Despite the hardships, Daniel’s legacy shows that true goodness is about perseverance, acceptance, and the power to love despite failure. In the end, Allison’s story is about finding hope in the midst of despair, and understanding that even amidst life’s broken pieces, there is a chance to rebuild and find peace.
