The thinking brought by RUDY-the game of benefit and persistence

After watching this film, I thought about the first episode of Harvard Justice's public class. There are two categories of theories about the generation of morality: the theory of utilitarian maximization and the theory of absolute morality.
This is reflected in the fact that when you can choose between saving 1 person and saving 5 people, most people choose to save 5 people. But when the situation changes, now you can choose to kill 1 person and save the other 5 people, or you can choose not to kill this 1 person and let the 5 people die. Is it more noble to choose to kill 1 to save 5, or to stick to the principle of not killing?

The former is called utilitarian moralism, and the latter is called absolute moralism.

This film brought me the same thinking.
Is it more meaningful to spend nearly 10 years (although the protagonist in the film does not seem to be old...so I mistakenly think that he is just applying every month) to pursue 27 seconds of brilliance, or to give full play to his energy In your own strengths, creating a piece of your own sky makes more sense?
Although the film is adapted from real events, the story behind the film is the story I would like to know more. Life can't come to an abrupt cessation at the climax like a movie. We who have climbed to the top want to know where the next step is going.

So, I think there is a watershed between utilitarianism and liberalism. Is it to let oneself live more freely, or to let one's abilities give full play to maximize the benefits. Say I'm greedy, or cowardly. I think I want to try and achieve a certain height. It may also be afraid, so I dare not make a decision.

So, if it was me, how would I choose? Will you spend thousands of times your time and energy to obtain meager benefits because of what you like? I think I am rational in this regard. In other words, it's from the city. I have dreams, but now I will not try my best to fight for it. I will probably keep it in my heart, and then secretly seek opportunities. Strive for something small in one day. And I will be very happy because of it.

Just like in the movie, Rudy always said, I want to prove, I want to prove. Who is the proof for? Is the opinion of others important? Um. However, I think it is more important to surpass yourself.
It's arrogant or cowardly.

Finally, returning to the topic, life is a very complicated chess game. There are often no tactics and strategies from one end to the other. Regardless of whether benefit is the most important thing or stick to the end, it is a process to the next step. As long as he can endure everything in the middle, it's not always certain who laughs at the end.

    The part of putting the jersey and the part of putting the check in the newsroom echo the part of putting the check in the newsroom. Not to mention, the existence of people like Rudy will benefit the people around them, and the positive energy will be filled quickly~ I didn’t achieve the goal, but I have acquired the relevant knowledge. The added value such as skills may be the real treasures that will come in handy at some point in the future.

    A template for inspirational stories of no-talent + one-strand-shaped characters, the desire-obstacle-action paradigm is a set, which is extremely single. The impact is mainly from the adaptation of stories based on real people. According to today's aesthetics, there is nothing outstanding. "Eddie the Eagle", which is very similar from the character to the story curve, can be regarded as a good work for comparison and appreciation.

Rudy quotes

  • Father Cavanaugh: [in church] Taking your appeal to a higher authority?

    Rudy: I'm desperate. If I don't get in next semester, it's over. Notre Dame doesn't accept senior transfers.

    Father Cavanaugh: Well, you've done a hell of a job kid, chasing down your dream.

    Rudy: Who cares what kind of job I did if it doesn't produce results? It doesn't mean anything.

    Father Cavanaugh: I think you'll find that it will.

    Rudy: Maybe I haven't prayed enough.

    Father Cavanaugh: I don't think that's the problem. Praying is something we do in our time, the answers come in God's time.

    Rudy: If I've done everything I possibly can, can you help me?

    Father Cavanaugh: Son, in thirty-five years of religious study, I've come up with only two hard, incontrovertible facts; there is a God, and, I'm not Him.

  • Mateus: Hey man, I just want to say sorry about what I said at practice.

    Rudy: Don't be sorry.

    Mateus: Do you understand that if you don't cool it out there you're going to get yourself killed?

    Rudy: If I cool it out there, then I won't be helping you guys win next week's game. Got it?

    Mateus: Yeah, I got it.
