Fire in my heart, light in my eyes

The film is based on a real event that happened in the United States. It tells the story of Erin, a single mother with three children, who stumbled upon a power company pollution incident at a law firm and insisted on helping 643 victims get justice.

This film is a bit like the female version of "When Happiness Comes Knocking", in which single bottom-level characters reach the pinnacle of life with unremitting efforts. Both of them had a fire in their hearts, burning with great enthusiasm. I was fascinated by this woman's style and uncompromising nature. She is full of foul language but not vulgar, she is short of money but considers others. "fuck you!" "fuck you back!!" is really cool!

The charm of this film lies not only in the great satisfaction of winning the case, but also in arousing everyone's desire for a beautiful future!

Erin Brockovich quotes

  • Ed Masry: You're emotional, you're erratic. You say anything, you make this personal, and it isn't.

    Erin Brockovich: Not personal? That is my work! My sweat! My time away from my kids! If that's not personal, I don't know what is.

    [starts to cough]

    Ed Masry: Hey, come on. Come on. Go home. Get well. Because you're no good to me sick. I need you, all right? This case needs you.

  • Donna Jensen: [after a meeting] Oh, I made some bundt cake. Let me get some coffee, too.

    Ed Masry: [Gets up to leave] Sorry, we have to be getting back...

    Erin Brockovich: [under her breath in Ed's ear] Have a fuckin' cup of coffee, Ed.

    Ed Masry: [to Donna] Coffee would be great, thanks.

    Pete Jensen: [after Ed sits back down next to him] My wife makes great bundt cake.

    Ed Masry: I love bundt cake.
