The protagonist, Zhen Ai, is a 16-year-old girl living in Harlem, Manhattan, New York City. She is fat and ugly, with her huge figure and swollen face that has completely lost her expression. Her first impression is extremely negative, and she can't bear to look at it. But looking at her life and growth environment, who can bear to say any ridicule? The cherished mother is unemployed, living on government relief, and swears and insults her at every turn; the biological father is the boyfriend that the mother has made from unknown place, and his whereabouts are uncertain. Even if it appears, it will only increase the 16-year-old girl’s Pain-He raped Zhen Ai, let her give birth to two children, and said
obscenely, "You are so much stronger than your mother..." I admire Zhen Ai's actor Gabourey Sidibe (Gabourey Sidibe). ), for this girl who is trying to act in a movie for the first time, how unbearable it is to cherish this role. In addition to the inhumane and cruel family environment, she has to be bullied by street boys because of her ugly appearance and obesity. She is forced to drop out of school because of her backwardness and nearly illiteracy. She has to have children out of wedlock. The fierce and brutal mother is forcing to continue a hopeless path of sinking, with her mentally retarded son and newly born daughter struggling forever in the quagmire of government relief...
I can hardly imagine a teenage girl who can face such a cruel and hopeless reality of life, can only escape in the illusion, and have to escape in the dream; but Zhen Ai finally survived these seemingly invincible dilemmas, its The reasons are not all from the outside world. For example, the beautiful female teachers who carry out special education work and the female social workers who show sincere concern for cherishment, and more importantly, come from the perseverance that cherishes oneself and refuses to give up. This powerful life force is simply confusing-ordinary people who have never experienced these tragic encounters will inevitably complain about the world and others when they encounter a little adversity, and there are many examples of broken cans and self-destroy; what can make such a The almost desperate child stood up from the mud and walked towards the new life with dignity?
Is it love? The two cherished children were the motive that finally made her out of the control of her mother-she didn't want her children to repeat their old ways, and she didn't want them to live in a perverted and deformed family environment. But after giving birth to Cherish, hasn't the cherished mother ever experienced this kind of natural mother-daughter love and blood relationship? Because of her lack of affection, she treats her own daughter as an imaginary enemy, and abuses them in all kinds of ways. Can it be attributed to ignorance or natural evil?
Or is it respect? Personally, I am more inclined to agree with this kind of perseverance and dignity that originates from the outside world but grows from the heart. The female social worker played by the singer Mariah Carey is the character I admire most in the movie. This equal perspective, which is neither domineering nor merciful, reminds me of Luanke, a German volunteer who teaches in a mountain village in Guangxi. In the CCTV reporter Chai Jing’s interview with Lu Anke, he said that what children value most is a sincere and true attitude. Once the purpose of the adult world is revealed, the children’s rebellious psychology will cause trouble, and education will be counterproductive. Negative push hands make the children's character development go to the dark side of violent tyranny.
This kind of head-up respect, I think, is the biggest driving force for Cherishing to build up strength to the dawn. It allows Zhen Ai to always retain the little fire that lasts life in every moment of being bullied and hurting despair. After Zhen Ai entered the special tuition school and met the kind and kind teacher Ryan, the mutual respect between knowledge and people finally ignited the spark of her life. Real struggle replaced the previous unrealistic fantasy and came from the society. The "changeable" signals in all aspects prevented the slippery slope of self-deprecation in time, so there is a new treasure at the end of the film-a mother who is self-reliant in adversity, and a stubborn youth who faces fate and refuses to bow her head. Comparing her mother, an insulter and an insulter who has evolved from a victim who was insulted and harmed, it is undoubtedly very lucky to cherish; but at the same time it also makes people have to re-examine the ways and means of social assistance mechanisms, a kind of Will mechanical, top-down, simple material aid be counterproductive?
Although "Treasure" only touches a part of the serious family problems at the bottom of American society, and cannot answer the question of the invalid blind spot of the social welfare mechanism, I still appreciate the courage of the film to face social problems directly. It makes people see the stars in the shady scene. Dawn, saw the noble personality, dignity, and love.
