      Luckily she's just an example

      I like tragedies, but I still can't recommend this to anyone. It's not the rape\abuse scenes that make me sad, but her "beautiful" fantasies. She, who has been distorted by the so-called mother, also admits that she is an extremely ugly, lowly and useless person. She should not have lived in this world. She was a shit from birth. So she imagined that as long as it wasn't for such a black, ugly, fat, and stupid woman, life would be as beautiful as the stars hold the moon.
      Fortunately, she...

      Everything is a gift of the universe

      It rained so hard. ---- Digression

      I was very impressed by a sentence in the film.
      Precious said that
      they are all people in the tunnel.
      A little gleam only exists in their hearts .
      Even if they walk out of the tunnel
      , their hearts are still isolated from the world.

      A heavy and deep film.

      Is the end of the film the beginning of another hopeful life?
      I see a lot of people saying this.
      After all, this is an inspirational movie....

      God does not love people

      Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are dogs. When I first recognized this phrase, I thought it meant that in the whole world, everyone is in dire straits. It was later found to be a misunderstanding. The correct meaning is that between heaven and earth, heaven treats all things equally.

      where is the end

      Another day, because of the holiday idleness.
      Because, I am on vacation, so I can do whatever I want to do at any time.
      Because it's a public holiday, I can't do what I'm supposed to do and need help with.
      can only wait.

      There's a lot to fill in this wait, and a lot of music to listen to. Read a lot of blogs.
      The content of blogs and news is about this society, marriage, housing prices, depression, moaning, discussions, conclusions, men and women in society, and...

      deformity.

      In the film, I can still vaguely feel the taste of discrimination. My precious mother always said, don't believe those white people. This is no different from the fact that women always say that men don't have any good things. Women don't still rely on men blindly, and your black people in the ghetto still have to rely on white people's welfare to live.

      She's fat, she's not beautiful, she can even be said to be ugly and bulky, her humble birth, her humble life. Because of her father's...

      The first half was super depressing, and then there was a sudden hope. The role of the mother was played to the bone. It was really good. The female lead was very familiar. After thinking about it for a long time, I found out that I had been on Saturday Night Live once before. A poster for SNL. Independent...

      This is the saddest film I've ever seen. A black girl was raped by her father and abused by her mother. At the age of 16, she had two children and was ordered to drop out of school to contract AIDS. . . The life in my imagination is very beautiful, but in reality, the blows come one after another, and at the end, Precious laughs indifferently. This girl is worse than everyone, but she is stronger than...

      There are many places that I can't imagine, but it is not just as simple as a shock to the heart. Now that I think about it, even if we have watched these movies, we have inspired some pity and been inspired, but many times it is fleeting, in such a busy time. In the busy era, it is difficult for us to move on to this path of permanence, let alone put it into action, whether it is for ourselves or...
