      Not just a legend of 42

      The film was in a writing class, and a writing teacher from America spent two weeks showing the film in class. Let's write an essay comparing the film's protagonist, Jackie Robinson, to another hero we admire.
      The movie started with the mentality of completing the homework, but as the movie progressed, I was deeply attracted. The whole movie has a strong warm and peaceful atmosphere, which is really unexpected in a movie that shows the theme of inequality. The theme of the film is very...

      This is not only an inspirational film, but also a legendary documentary worthy of our study.

      Aside from racial discrimination, the spirit of the characters created by the film is also the highlight of the film. Starring Robinson has gone from being a nigger despised by everyone to becoming a "baseball king" admired by the United States. A person who can write down history is destined to pay more than others. In the last scene, when the audience, both black and white, applauded Jackie Robinson's victory, I was deeply impressed by the courage, belly, and tenacity that Robinson conveyed....

      No 42

      After watching this film, on the one hand, I feel that although there are many unsatisfactory places in the place where I live, compared with the racial discrimination in the United States at that time, it is really not worth mentioning. To a certain extent, the understanding of the United States is also more three-dimensional, not only bright and bright, but also dark and terrifying.

      On the other hand, seeing Robinson's response to his own emotional control and the abuse and...

      The film turned the experience of a black baseball player into a war against segregation, successfully shaping an American legend. The actors' performances are all good, but Harrison Ford and Chadwick who play the protagonist are still particularly fond of. It's heart-wrenchingly exciting, and the hero becomes a Russell Crowe-like gladiator, fighting bravely to change the...

      I think the greatness of this kind of film is not in the film itself, but in "this film is changed according to the real story", every time I see the photos of the prototypes at the end of the film, I am in awe of this awesome...

    "42" received 63 points in the media review, and the freshness of rotten tomatoes was 75%, which received most of the praise. Among them, the "New York Daily News" and "Tampa Bay Times" gave full marks to the film. Bosman's performance in the film was cautious but confident, and at the same time he did not fall into the stereotypes of traditional inspirational films. The film is a very good sports film that honestly and sincerely...
