      McFarland: Because of Love, There is Concern

      Water flows down, and people go up. But when the dream of life comes true, there are still so many worries to keep. When one person becomes the hope of a group of people, and a group of people becomes the reluctance of one person, the choice of life requires higher wisdom and deeper feelings. When I first saw the title of the film, I felt that I didn't know what to say, but it took more than half a year to finish it in two parts. But I'm glad I didn't miss this masterpiece. It reminds me of a...

      Cute and sunny Mexican kids.

      Mexico, Mexican religion, Mexican roads, Mexican tacos, Mexican language, Mexican criminals, Mexican warm sunshine. Turns out McFarland was a place name.
      Music plays.
      people of Mexico.
      Oh, not a Mexican criminal is a Mexican prison.
      run.
      Run, run, run, run, run, run.
      Running is really cool.
      Missing my daughter's birthday party was so much like the last movie I watched, Savage Tales.

      Don't try to change anything easily

      In addition to the scenes we can't see in life, there are more of our admiration from the heart. We are moved by their spirits and touched by the beauty that we never imagined, and we are constantly looking for those things here. Does it exist in our hearts? Sometimes we even constantly doubt ourselves when we look at the children who have experienced it. There is a fact that we cannot change our own destiny.

           The American Dream did not exist there. When the coach kept trying to...

      Human life is like grass. It is dotted with wild flowers.

      A poor Hispanic town, a newly hired white coach, and seven kids who go to school and work as pickers while finding time to train for running.

      One of the scenes that impressed me the most in the movie is that after participating in the first game and failing, Coach White took the players to a field full of piles and asked them to make mountains on piles of piles covered with plastic film. train. Thomas knew what the little hill under his feet was. He couldn't hide his anger....

      In fact, the film is very general, and Douban literary youth blows too much beauty

      1. The sport of running is very boring, and the key films are also very mediocre. It is very touching to watch the little boy's game in "Little Shoes". This film is a little dull, and many processes can be guessed. 2. The film is too deliberate, and there are few places to arouse the emotions of the audience. Contrast wrestling, dad, 3 minutes for a fluctuation, 5 minutes for a rhythm. In this movie, I just watched the part of Hai and Fatty who finally ran fifth and got points. These two...

      Whenever the movie is about to end, I always put a few words in my mind, but when Danny exerts his strength, his blood spurts and he is speechless. The "American Dream" was realized in the place where the dream was most unlikely to be realized; the whole film gave me the feeling that it was like the second before the whistle blowing. It was necessary to exert force and keep it, and the director's control over emotions Just like the control of power in cross-country racing, it is just...
