      "Miracle Boy"-overkill

      It can be seen that the little spider man. The happy publisher. The beautiful tenant. Even the expensive fur coat is just an introduction. Everything seems to be trying to call people forward, not just on the surface. It seems that Greg himself, as he himself said: "Everything is a kind of omen." Of course, bright movies always have a bright ending. Of course it should be out of the obscurity, but the suspicion of overcorrecting also comes out too much. Too arrogant. Some are like unsuccessful...

      Three Miracle Boys

      In order to see Downey and Toby in the same frame, I got another good film.

      First of all, it is humorous and warm. Even if it happens on a cold rainy day, it actually brings out the precious feelings between the protagonists.

      The seemingly nonsensical story actually has a clear development. Teachers, students, and editors each encountered bottlenecks. Through a party, a dog, a coat, a car, a backpack, two unpublished manuscripts Three people strung together. They are all...

      OK

      I have never gotten some foreign movies, especially comedies. I feel that there is a fundamental gap with us. Just like Chaplin, I can’t understand it, but domestic comedies are easy to get. People think differently. ! But I think this movie is really good. The burden is that I have seen it in China, but it is not the same as in China. It is a wonderful experience, but I can’t tell why, but I like it very much. It’s fun to have a woman at the beginning. I like it very much, I recommend...

      Wonder Boys

      I am interested in this film mainly because of the author of the novel, Michael Chabon. Mr. Chabon is the winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and is also a manga fan (he has written the script for SPIDERMAN2). He wrote it under the influence of two cultures, serious and popular. The story is witty, humorous, philosophical and not unconventional. Wonder Boys is a movie with such characteristics. The plot is as plain as life but unexpected, and the wonderful dialogues appear from time to...

      Now I'm watching a bunch of big names with familiar faces, but the story is a bit scattered, and I don't know what the characters are busy with. Basically it's about a writer who messed up his life and finally got out. When watching the movie, I feel that I can't grasp the focus and clues, or I don't understand...

    Movie plot

    Professor Grady ( Michael Douglas ) was once honored as the "Wonder Boys" because his novel published 7 years ago was a sensation in the literary world. Although on the surface this is a good thing, it makes Gray behind the scenes. Di carried a heavy burden of thought on his back. He was afraid that his new work would fall too far, so he kept pressing it on the bottom of the box and dared not publish it. Now, his wife has left him, and...

    • [first lines]

      Grady Tripp: "The young girl sat perfectly still in the confessional listening to her father's boots scrape like chalk on the ancient steps of the church, then grow faint, then disappear altogether. She could sense the priest beyond the grate..." On that particular Friday afternoon, last February, I was reading a story to my Advanced Writers' Workshop by one James Leer, Junior Lit major and sole inhabitant of his own gloomy gulag.

      Grady Tripp: As for me, I lost everything: my wife, my book, my job, everything that I thought was important. But I finally knew where I wanted to go. And now I have someone to help me get there.
