Reverse inspirational stories

The film is the biographical story of Tonya Harding, the first figure skater in American history to complete the difficult three-and-a-half twist.

This story is very special. It is an inspirational story in itself, but it turns around again and again, and even turns sharply at the end. In the end, let us see the various difficulties faced by the "bottom people" struggling to make progress.

Although Tonya is talented and her mother discovered this talent and put all the money on her training, making her a legend. However, Tonya cannot rely on the fate brought about by class. Such as her mother's education, extreme education (as all the people at the bottom can recall, parents did not rely on encouragement, but stimulation, beating and scolding), such as her terrible family, her mother married many times, and her father asked for it every day. In the 12-hour shift, there is no way to buy her clothes that can be integrated into the group. What's more important is the "emotional" education, the "hostile" education, so that she has no friends (she wants to make friends with the girl she trains with, and her mother yells and scolds her, warning that the other party is her enemy).

When she grew up, although she also had love, even her husband did love her. Both as low-level love, they are both emotional and tangled in each other in a chaotic way. Her husband would often beat her, and she once picked up a shotgun and shot her husband. They also got divorced, and she also gave her husband a restraining order through the law (forbidding how many meters around her, etc.), and her husband also tried to kidnap her in the middle of the night, holding a gun to her head.

Because of her talent, hard work, and her mother's whipping, she succeeded and won the U.S. championship. But the championship improved her life a little, and caused friction with her husband; she reconciled with her husband, but she couldn't perform well on the field. When she got rid of her husband and was able to regain her state, the referee who selected the Olympic team members was unwilling to give her the first place because of her broken family and represented the United States. At this time, her husband came out to disrupt the situation again. He was so bold that he hired a murderer to injure the knee of the first-place contestant, which alerted the FBI. This led to her winning the Olympic championship and a rare opportunity to change her destiny (the Olympics were originally once every four years, she had no chance, became a restaurant waiter, and her figure changed; but the Olympic Games suddenly added a competition, and she overcame various difficulties and returned to the competition. ), and because of the FBI's investigation, she became the object of questioning. When things were not going well, she actually broke her shoelaces on the field and performed badly. Another missed opportunity. And the judge also deprived her of the right to participate in the competition in the future.

It was obvious that she had no opportunity to receive an education from the bottom of the family, and her mother wisely amplified and strengthened her talents, giving her a chance to enter the upper class. However, in the end, because of the inability to get rid of the problem of being born at the bottom (I read an article earlier: at least those who have received higher education, they are less likely to beat people), they have never been able to get rid of the fate of the bottom people. Despite her brief brilliance, she was noticed and loved. After being suspended, she was beaten back to her original state. Although according to the video, she really did not participate in the incident of attacking her opponent, but she lost her only way to rise. Ended up being a black market fighter and living in the red light district. After her husband was released from prison, she continued to have a divorced marriage with others.

Obviously, the movie is not an inspirational movie. It is more of a realistic version of "Red and Black", telling us how difficult it is for people at the bottom to struggle out. It is not as simple as the interpretation of ordinary inspirational films. On the other hand, it is both true and full of twists and turns, and it even goes against the general story, so in terms of story, there is also a special inspiration. Especially this kind of "reverse inspiration" allows us to understand more problems. �D9%8�e
