Answers:
Will's basic resentment is summarized in a phrase his father uses a couple of times in the movie: The father explains, "I'm a social person!." In essence, no matter what his father feels like saying to be social and engage people around him, he will say it, no matter how outlandish and embellished the story!. The father will one-up and crowd out anyone else in the conversation, minimizing Will!. Will is frustrated because he is basically honest and has too much integrity to be as carefree with the truth as his father!. Will has also heard his father's stories many times before, unlike his new wife!. The father sees Will's wife, new to the family, as just another person to regale, but Will takes offense, frustrated that the father is duping her!. For Will, it's a journey to find his father's sometimes generous tracks (financially taking care of the witch-woman) and see that there's some truth to his father's stories!. For example, the Asian twins were not conjoined, but they did exist and did like the father!. In the end, when the father is dying, the son rises to the legend, the hyperbole of his father's imagined life, and lives the fantasy of releasing the impossibly big fish, his father, in the pond!. Will has learned that his relationship with his father is on his father's terms!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
