      Don't go gentle into that good night

      Do not go gentle into that good night,

      Old age should burn and roar at sunset;

      Angrily, angrily at the disappearance of this light. — Dylan Thomas

      Starring Anthony Hopkins. Based on the story of New Zealand motorcycle racer Burt Monroe in his old age, at the age of 68, he transformed a 1920 Indian Scout motorcycle (a century-old American motorcycle brand) and came to Utah, USA, to participate in the Extreme Moto Challenge in the Salt Belt of Navia.

      Perseverance is the greatest

      The naive old man, coupled with the almost stubborn persistence, walked staggeringly, and it was not that I hardly believed that Bert could complete this dream trip - I did not believe it at all.

      I am rational, and I admire his courage and his dreams, but no amount of admiration I have for him can convince me that he can do it.

      I realized that the difference between me and him was that Burt was willing to put his life at stake to hit his dreams when my rationality made me...

      unfinished~

      If a person insists on his own opinion when he disagrees with everyone, no doubt many people around him will laugh at him for being stubborn, or use sarcasm to amuse everyone. But the truth is, some people, even if they call them opinionated, have their reasons.
      It is understandable that young people like to pursue speed. But if you take racing as a major career in life, and if you use it to face the world, it is estimated that your parents will feel distressed and call you crazy at the...

      small fresh

      Gives a fresh feeling. The male protagonist is very humorous and gives people a romantic and suave feeling. His room still has a poor life, and his enthusiasm for life makes me less blind to this materialistic world. Maybe, what we want is just simple faith. Do not dope too many other impurities.
              He is old and has a bad heart. Also take the limit test. His motorcycles make people wonder if they can run fast at that level, and what he says is not very believable. If I hadn't watched...

      I think this movie has been promoted to my favorite movie No.1. Hannibal, who was obsessed at the time, began to feel a little sad when he became a fat and old man in the film. But then when I saw the ordinary and crazy dream-chasing road of this lovely old man, I felt the charm of Hopkins blooming again. I love you, I still love you!you old guy!! Personally like to give ten stars very...

    Movie quotes

    • Burt Munro: What's your name, young man?

      Mike: McFarlane. Mike. Mike McFarlane.

      Burt Munro: I knew a McFarlane. He used to sell milking machines in Timaru. You must be related to him because he was a total prick.

    • Jim Moffett: I told you, if it's a time problem, the old guy's welcome to use some of my time.

      Mike: It's not a time problem, it's a bike problem.

      Jim Moffett: Well, I think we ought to let him run. He came all the way from New Zealand to do this.

      Mike: Jim, have you had a good look at his machine?

      Jim Moffett: All I know is the man's the genuine article.

      Mike: Yeah, but the bike is the genuine dinosaur.

      Jim Moffett: Look, we carry the cans for the decisions around here...

      Mike: And if he kills himself, and there's about a 100-to-1 that he will, we're gonna have a hell of a lot of trouble on our hands.

      Jim Moffett: Yeah, sounds like we're a bunch of chickenshits, if you want my opinion.

    • Jim Moffett: What are you doing?

      Burt Munro: [referring to his KIWI brand of black shoe polish] Well, the soft shoe polish fills in the cracks. Makes the tyres look spick and span, good as new. Cheaper than new ones anyway.

      Jim Moffett: I didn't see that.
