"Unbreakable" after watching

"A moment of pain is worth a lifetime of honor." Zamperini's brother sent him this sentence when he said goodbye, which impressed me a lot. Later, when he reached the eighth lap of the track and field competition, he was still in the top three. He remembered his brother's encouragement, he rushed up and finally won the gold medal. I think the most important thing in every growing process is family education. There is a family member who can guide, encourage and support you when you grow up, and it will have a subtle influence in the years to come. This also manifested itself in Zamperini's later life.

After their plane crashed at sea, only two comrades survived. Zan remained optimistic and encouraged his comrades not to give up. In the boundless sea, he chatted with his comrades, maintained his willpower, caught sea fish, and even eaten raw sharks. During this period, planes flew by, but they were enemy planes of the Japanese army. It was fired at them again, and they jumped into the sea to escape the catastrophe. But Mike's willpower was poor, and he died a few days later. The rest of Zan and Mayfair floated aimlessly on the sea. The lifeboats took them to the vicinity of the Japanese warships, and they became Japanese prisoners. The more than a month at sea has been so hard that he is about to collapse, and he was tortured even more in the hands of the Japanese army. At this time, because he was an Olympic champion, the Japanese army wanted to use him to do something unfavorable to his own country that was inconsistent with the facts. In exchange for good living conditions, there have been several American prisoners who have exchanged and are enjoying good food, but Zan has refused and will continue to be tortured in the POW camp. The brutal torture began again. No matter how tormented by the Japanese army, in order to survive, he has been persevering with willpower. Rather Stick to your guns. Ordinary people don't have this kind of willpower, and they may be short-sighted, that kind of inhuman torture, and if they don't die, their spirits will also be devastated. But there is hope in life. As the old saying goes, it is better to die than to live. Only a life that has been tempered is complete. His willpower even frightened Japanese officers.

This may be life, everyone will experience difficulties, and unrelenting willpower can make us gradually full of wings, waiting for the opportunity to fly to the sky we want.
