Friend

Friend (2001) elicits strong emotional responses primarily centered around its dramatic and crime-laden narrative. Audiences experience significant Sadness and Melancholy as they witness the tragic downfall of childhood friendships and the grim realities of the crime world. Empathy is high for the characters caught in their difficult circumstances, while Anxiety and Anger are prominent due to the constant threats, betrayals, and violence inherent in the criminal underworld. Moments of Excitement and Anticipation arise from the action sequences, but these are often overshadowed by the film's somber and disturbing themes.
