"Rocket Science" is a comedy film about the anxiety of adolescence. It tells how a teenager handles the secrets of life, love, and speech. Director Jeffrey Blitz (Jeffrey Blitz) produced his debut in 2002-the documentary film "", and immediately gained the reputation of "story genius". Britz is always able to pay attention to the details of human nature that others have overlooked. It is precisely because of his talent that this documentary is not only a pale description of the "national" final stage, but a contemporary A moving show in the United States. Equally impressive is the method that Britz used when shooting the film. The revolving character in the story is not just as simple as a symbol. "" is produced by Sean Welch, a lifelong friend and partner of Britz. After being nominated for both the Oscar and the Independent Spirit Award, it landed on the theaters as scheduled.
Similar to the protagonist Hal Hefner in "Rocket Science", Geoffrey Britz also had a stuttering problem when he was young, so he took the initiative to participate in school debates in order to better understand and understand The charm of speeches. Britz succeeded. Not only did he become the captain of the debate team, he also won the New Jersey State Debate Championship in his final year of high school. However, Britz does not intend to use Rocket Science to convey to the audience some of his own successful experience when he was young. Compared with most filmmakers who like to add that kind of personal memory to the content of the film, Britz insists Retention: “I’m really insensitive to that kind of autobiographical fictional movies, because I have to spend a lot of time trying to figure out whether I am really capable of putting aside my personal feelings in the process, and extracting it from my own experience. Some useful information that resonates with others. The answer is no, so this film only focuses on things that should be focused on."
Ever since, Jeffrey Britz framed a new story for Rocket Science, which almost encompasses the life of the actor Hal for a year: his life in a suburban town in New Jersey is mostly ridiculous. Yes, a bit incomprehensible confusion. The situation that Hal is encountering is a bit funny in it, but it's actually quite normal on thinking about it-his family life has fallen into a downturn due to the sudden breakup of his parents, although his brother can sometimes give him a suggestion. Some suggestions, but most of the time it brings pressure. As for Hal’s school life, it can also be described as a gloomy cloud. He was frustrated because of neurological stuttering. He could not manage his tongue at critical times. All of this made Hal habitually The janitor's storage room became his own secret refuge.
Except for the problem of stuttering, the adolescence of Jeffrey Britz is completely different from that of Hal. It is completely contrary to Hal’s "adversity". Britz is very active both socially and academically, and The relationship with his two brothers is also very close. Since he himself has had a neurological stutter, he can give Hal a very real feeling of obstacles when speaking, and Britz is also a screenwriter. It has become a shortcut for the role of Hal to be fully reflected, that is, the personality, concept and behavior of the character other than stuttering, as Britz described: "Except for the stuttering that may produce some funny things in the middle Misunderstanding, Hal is a strong opportunist. He hopes to seize the opportunity in the world of fiercely competitive debate, is willing to take risks, and is a very promising child."
