      "English Teacher": Still a Bowl of Chicken Soup for the Soul

      "English Teacher": It's still a bowl of chicken soup
      for the soul/Jiang Xiaomao

      's teacher-themed films are indeed too common. Even if teachers are not the protagonists, they often play a role in "fueling the flames" in the film. Some films sing praises for outstanding people's teachers, such as the enduring "Spring of the Cow Herding Class"; some are innovative, show off their IQ and play thrillers, such as "The Life of David Gore"; The teacher is portrayed as a femme fatale,...

      Can't tell life

      All things are uncertain, in the real situation, because the real thing is like this, at this moment we are very high, perfect, very principled, we say one thing, the next moment we have no self-confidence, we only promise, just want to Touched to death, I feel that life is boring and helpless, this is the real life, this drama shows it really well. I just wanted to write a script of this idea, I thought about the story, but I always felt that I couldn't start writing it. Maybe I will write it...

      The thing is the same thing, you are not the same you anymore

      It's a very warm movie. I like some unconventional plot movies that are beyond the acceptable range of some people. Above life, don't have too many rules and regulations. It's good that there is no crime. In the middle, everything turns sharply and life slides to the bottom of the valley. If you want to despair, it will be fine after the rain. There will still be some people who will not give up. You will have a friend's casual words that touch your heart or wise words that remind you to...

      A good teacher has a positive impact on life

      The narration of large sections of narration, well, at least not as hypocritical as the narration of domestic films.

      The blind date score at the beginning is a bit interesting. It seems that some domestic films have been plagiarized.

      Later, I looked at it daily with the joys and sorrows of an older young woman. Sibling love, teacher-student love. Well, many people have YY, right? I don't, but YY has made me a teacher, and female students have a crush on me, haha.

      By the...

      Gap in Education--Question and Creativity

      A very interesting story, in fact, it is not an inspirational story of a teacher who guides and encourages students in a pure sense, but a growth film of a leftover girl. The simple teacher suddenly woke up from the story in the book, began to question the life like a novel that he expected, began to face the imperfect things in this life, and bravely stepped out and started to create and continue to write his own story.
      From this film, we can also see the gap in literary education between...

      Julianne Moore, 54, who plays a female teacher in her mid-40s, seems to make sense. There are some small black humor, the previous plot looks very bad, especially I don't like young playwrights, and their character is very scum. At the end, it returns to a perfect comedy ending, or else the lonely middle-aged female teacher will be too desperate. This can be regarded as a kind of comfort to the majority of lonely single older women with literary and artistic...

      Although it's not tacky, but it's not surprising either. Compared with the same type of soul catcher, it's far worse than that because of the brilliant starlight and relatively good quality. It's worth...

    Movie quotes

    • [first lines]

      Narrator: Linda Sinclair had reached her 45th year, an unwed high school English teacher, with no prospect of marriage. Hers appeared to be a rather ordinary life, one of discipline, frugality, small indignities. Modest hopes, and disappointments.
