When I mention the subject matter of the film, the classic clips that come to mind are often shocking and soul-stirring scenes, earth-shattering disasters or love and affection for each other, or the vast universe and vastness landscape. Realizing this, I was watching Rob Reiner's The Bucket List, a film about the short journey of two people who are dying on the same ward, and my mind jumped. The other two films have been released. What they have in common is that they are all films based on "friendship". In my few movie viewing experiences, friendship is often inferior to films about family and love. Some, the classic fragments and impressions left behind are also very vague. The three recommended movies are mostly based on two-person dialogue in the presentation of the plot, without very strong turning points and contradictions. In my mind, they win with details instead. There is no infiltration of other related characters, which makes the viewing more comfortable and casual. There is no need to intrigue and cry to convulsions. Just sit quietly at the table or lean on the bed, listening to the two humoring each other. The dialogue is enough to move people.

1. Scent of a Woman

The first one to recommend is "Scent of a Woman," directed by Martin Brest and starring Al Pacino and Chris O'Donnell. When I first saw this movie, I didn't check the movie synopsis in advance. I always thought it was a love movie, so I felt a little strange when the heroine was not mentioned in the title for half an hour, but I didn't expect it. This is a movie with a huge contrast in the title and content. The two protagonists of the film, an ordinary high-achieving middle school student on a bursary, take on the job of caring for a blind veteran for tuition and a living, while at school because of his friend's pranks It leaves him with the dilemma of whether to expose his friend, and the result is either a confession or being kicked out of school; the other protagonist is a blind veteran whose accidental blindness has caused him to slide from the peak of his life to the end of his life. At the bottom of the valley, his personality is also changing, domineering and unreasonable. As the intersection of the two people slowly unfolded, the souls of the two people slowly merged, and their directions also underwent their own changes. The soldiers opened up the swaying kind souls of the middle school students, and the students also saved the soldiers who were struggling to die.

This is a film that made my blood boil after watching it. Although the lines in it look inconspicuous, they go straight to the depths of the soul. There are integrity, courage, and principles in it. Although it seems more educational, the two people The relationship between the two also moved me in the way of the continuous development of the plot. They went from two irrelevant people to saving each other and saving each other. After watching it, I realized that the process of watching such movies is a process of pulling the soul of a person into a real person. In the process, he not only saved each other but also the viewer.

2. Good Will Hunting

This film directed by Gus Van Sant has been sitting on my "want to see" list, and after watching it, it captured my heart just like its title. It also has no earth-shattering plot, but the characters The detailed description of the character and the relationship between the characters is still moving. Matt Damon plays Will, a troubled young man who hangs around with his best friends, but he is also a genius who can quickly solve difficult problems published by MIT math professor Rambo. Rambo hoped that Will could find his true purpose in life and study academics with him, so he found many psychologists to counsel Will, but Will resisted until the last psychology professor - Ron William When Sean, played by James, appeared, Will slowly opened his heart. In the play, in addition to the close friendship between Will and Sean, there is also Will's friendship with his friends, Will's love, and all the problems are slowly resolved as Will's heart begins to open, and finally he realizes it. I understood my own direction, and finally became enlightened.

What touched me the most about this show was the friendship between men, the real friendship. In addition to the soul-like relationship between Will and Sean, the friendship between Will and his friend Chuck and others made me more gratified, and it also made me know what it means to truly think about friends and be good for friends, and Not blindly to hinder his life. This is a movie that is very suitable for young and energetic people to watch. After watching it, I believe it will be calmer and more empathetic.

3. The Bucket List

With a super strong cast, the partners of Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman will surely create different sparks. One is Carter, a knowledgeable repair technician, and the other is Cole, an old rich man in a public hospital with a strong personality. Both were found to be seriously ill, and they happened to be placed in the same ward. The two dying old men slowly forged a friendship at the last moment of their lives. Cole discovered Carter's bucket list by chance, and he decided to put it into action, let all these crazy ideas on paper come true one by one, to explore the final meaning of life and give life new value.

The two protagonists of the first two films are of the same age, and the two protagonists of this film are two old people who are facing the same situation, but their different environments make the characters of the two very different. It is a blessing in life that such two old people can get to know each other at the last moment of their lives, and finally understand each other and fulfill each other. They truly discovered their hearts.

These three films have given me a more positive and profound insight into people, life and soul. I believe that after watching these three films, you will step out of your own space and be more positive, optimistic and tolerant towards others with the world.
