About calling it a "morality play", that phrase where I was brought up means a story where a person breaks a moral code and suffers the consequences. Calling it a cautionary tale has a slightly different meaning. It is more about the danger you could let into your life. For that the protagonist may or may not be guilty.

I am looking forward to seeing "knock knock " but I fear many fans may not like it as they only want the action hero character. Me, I've decided I want to see who Keanu has found to show us. That includes those struggling at the edges of society in "generation Um ..."

I have a theory that Keanu plays many variations of a type of person that some people just aren't familiar with. And, for those of us who are it just seems right. There is a book about misunderstandings between communication styles called "that's Not What I Meant ". I think there is something similar about emotional expressions. I see people who call him wooden, and I think how can they say that with all the emotion expressed in his face and postures. The scene where Alex cries after reading his fathers book is a perfect example. To me it seems just right because I could see and hear myself crying in the hospital stairwell when my father died. I've seen that scene contrasted with another such scene that I considered melodramatic and unrealistic. I may have been wrong. Maybe there really are people like that.

But for me, Keanu shows us characters that I can believe. And, I watch movies of types I might not normally to see how he brings the character to us.

About the final kiss scene, I think it is an example of something Keanu does especially well. Lots of movie kisses show lust and I have nothing against that, but he can show love in his kisses. Then when they hold each other cheek to cheek they show such comfort. It says we're together, we made it, we're safe.
