theft

at the end of the movie, the shots varied from close ups to long shots, as well as eye line shots, all of which accentuated the importance of the object (the to be stolen bike) as well as to try and create a bit of suspense, causing us to question whether or not he will steal the bike or not, but because of this questioning the director is making us realize how hard of a decision it is to actually steal the bike. He sends away his son because his son is his conscience, and he wishes to look good in the eyes of his son. At the end of the movie, however, in spite of the fact that the son knows that his father tried to steal a bike, he had still loved and respected his father, and towards the end of the movie, the relationship between the two of them grew to a more loving relationship.
