"Shooting star - the stars on the earth"

Movies produced by Bollywood have produced a lot of good movies in recent years. Last year's "Three Fools" gave me a certain impression of Aamir Khan (b. 1965), who is said to be called the Tom of India, and recently watched him direct and star The film "Stars on Earth" (Taare Zameen Par), it is hard to believe that this is his first directorial work, the plot is very touching, the shooting techniques and editing are very skilled. Looking at his resume, I found that he is a legendary figure in himself, and his life experience is no less than the experience of the characters in the films he acted. He was a child star when he was a child, and then he didn't take the acting path but played tennis. Later, he returned to the show business circle. His love experience is also like a legend, because the word "elope" will have a lot of plot. a feeling of. In 2007, he started directing, "The Stars on Earth" (Taare Zameen par), which won him the Filmfare Award for Best Director.
This Indian film tells the story of a child being accepted and recognized by those around him. Ishaan is a bad boy in the eyes of teachers. His homework is always full of typos, and his academic performance is a mess. He has not made progress in three third grades. He seems to be a big trouble compared to the high-achieving older brother. In the end, his parents reluctantly sent him to a boarding school... Finally, with the encouragement of the substitute art teacher of the boarding school played by Aamir Khan, he showed his superiority to others and drew beautiful pictures...
A 7- or 8-year-old child with dyslexia feels that the characters are dancing, and it is much more difficult than others to recognize and memorize characters. There is such a paragraph in the film, during the math test, Ishaan saw the first question on the paper: 3X9=? In his mind, the vast universe spread out. Ethan drove Planet 3 to collide with Planet 9, met several other planets in the middle, and finally reached the destination after a few twists and turns, with a bang, Planet 9 was smashed! So Ishaan got the answer: 3X9=3!
The letters and numbers in the little Ishaan's head will move. Because he has been scolded and not understood, he said "can't do it" as "don't want to do it", and became a bad boy in the eyes of teachers and parents. He became more and more tired of studying, and even the letters in his eyes turned into terrifying spiders. This is a vicious circle. Because he learns slowly and cannot keep up with everyone's progress quickly, he is scolded and rejected, so he is getting worse and worse, he is getting more and more inferior to cover up, and he becomes withdrawn and unconfident. worse.
Fortunately, Teacher Nikumbh showed up when he needed to be understood and saved the most. Because the teacher used to be dyslexic, he patiently taught Ishaan, without hurting the child's self-esteem, it could stimulate his excellent painting ability, and let him finally feel that he can do it too can be excellent. I really like the two paintings in the final game of the movie, especially the one painted by Ishaan. They have rich imagination and gorgeous colors. They are really talented.
Every child is special. This is what this film is about. Halfway through the film, I thought of "Spring in the Cattle Class". There is also such a good teacher who guides the students to the bright future. road.
Favorite episode: The first lesson Mr. Nikumbh gave the children as a substitute teacher. It was very Indian, very Bollywood singing and dancing. In the class, he dressed as a clown, sang and danced, and performed magic tricks, which immediately attracted the children. their attention. When he started the formal class, he said, then, let's start painting, you can paint anything you want, and a student immediately asked, "There is nothing in front of you..." Because the art teacher in the past always asked the children to copy and paint When doing object sketching and really letting go of their minds and letting them draw whatever they want, the children are a little uncomfortable. Creativity is the transformation of endless imagination. There is nothing that cannot be done, only the unexpected. What if we had a teacher like this when we were kids?
Small details: Teacher Nikumbh's backpack reads "Serve the People", I paused to look at it. This little detail really makes the Chinese audience feel at ease.
