A glimpse into the path of human mental growth
In fact, I want to say that this film should be seriously underestimated.
Let me add something different!
The film follows the dramatic 3-month life of a young mother after her death. Nell was discovered by small-town doctor Jerry Lovell, and Paula Olson, a physician at City University Medical Center, quickly learned the news. Both were shocked and fascinated by the grown-up "wild child," while Nell curled up in horror and made an incomprehensible sound.
The performance...

Daughter of the Earth - Freedom and Belonging
Who does Nell's love belong to you? The earth, the doctor, or herself?
If there is no interference from outsiders, she can survive alone! Humans are social animals, and Cornel has never stepped into society. The Indian mother took her to live in the depths of the jungle. She does not know human language, let alone various rules. If it hadn't been discovered by the doctor, Nier would have been living alone, unaware of the outside world.
Nell, who grew up in the jungle, is pure, kind,...

The true love in Hollywood: To Natasha Richardson and Liam Neeson
When I saw Natasha Richardson and her husband Liam Neeson's screen love for "Neal's Heart", all kinds of tastes crossed.
Nissen once said in an interview: "For me, a role is like a coat. When I get home, I hang it on the hanger at the door, and I only wear it when I go out to the set. Acting is just work, and can never replace family. Only family can bring I am satisfied. But just last March, a ski accident took away my beloved wife of 15 years. My hair turned white overnight, and after a...

Symbolic interactionism is a theory about the influence of communication with outside world on an individual. I think Nell, a movie about the conflicts between an isolated woman living in an abandoned mountain with modern world, is good to illustrate it. Nell is a feral child , living in an isolated mountain. Her mother can't speak as normal people for a kind of disease. Therefore, to some extent, she has never been involved in a normal communication with human. She has a twin sister who died...

Lonely child, you are the grace of creation
At that time, some people brought little children to Jesus and asked Jesus to lay his hands on them and pray, and the disciples rebuked those people. Jesus said, let the little ones come to me, and do not forbid them, for such are the ones in the kingdom of heaven.
---- "The Gospel of Matthew"
I agree with a friend here. If you don't understand Christianity, or believe in the Lord, then you won't understand this movie with a strong religious atmosphere.
To understand this...

A story that was supposed to have potential was made to be extremely boring. The only thing to watch is Jodie Foster's face and...

The story is not brilliant, and there are a lot of bad points, but the reflection on human civilization itself is still worthy of recognition. Jodie Foster's performance is acceptable, Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson's performance is average, the appearance of human beings in the world of nature's daughter is a disaster in itself! If you don't believe me, check out the BBC's Nature Documentary. One star for the beautiful lakes and mountains~ (25G Blu-ray...

Does it have that long history? The resources are all Chinese dubbed versions! The plot of the movie is a bit similar to Jodie's "Girls in the Black Alley", but the storytelling technique is too different! A complete waste of the performance that Jodie put so seriously...

Neeson and Richardson were married after filming the film, until her unexpected...
[Jerry found the Bible with the note from Nell's mom for the stranger to look for her Nell]
Jerry: What kind of deal is this? The first who finds her is supposed to look after her?
Sheriff Todd Peterson: [matter of factly] That means you, Jerry.
Sheriff Todd Peterson: Oh sure. Just what I need.
Sheriff Todd Peterson: [bemused reading from the note] 'The Lord led you here.' There you have it.
Jerry: *You* led me here.
Sheriff Todd Peterson: You want the Lord to take care of her now?
Jerry: The last time I saw the Lord was in church of my wedding and look how *that* turned out.
Sheriff Todd Peterson: Well, she's definitely overage. So I guess we need to find her an adult protective service.
Jerry: She doesn't need a social worker. She needs a padded cell. That is one seriously disturbed lady.
Sheriff Todd Peterson: Well, I'm afraid that's gonna be your territory, Jerry.
Jerry: Thanks.
Sheriff Todd Peterson: [reciting the letter] The Lord led you here, stranger.
Paula: [seeing the Sheriff's wife crying] What happened to her?
Jerry: Nothing and everything. It hits her once in a while.
Paula: Is there any obvious cause?
Jerry: You want a list? Life's tough. But she's luckier than some. Got a good husband there.
