Peter and Jolie's family, everyone on earth knows that they are passionate about politics, humanitarianism, and faith. One day, the couple rummaged through a bunch of inspirational books in the airport bookstore and found this Hollywood inspirational book. Queen Hillenbrand's best-selling book of the same name suddenly opened their minds. The two could not restrain their excitement and ran to the prototype of the book-Louis Zamperini's home in Beverly Hills, pouring tea again Water again.

As a result, there is this "Unbreakable", which I call "The Adventures of Little Fresh Meat".

Let’s run.

From small to big, there is a saying that people who like to watch Hollywood movies must often hear, it is called: A strong will can conquer everything. Movies such as "The Shawshank Redemption" and "Forrest Gump" are all about this theme. Lao Mei believes that willpower is the most precious spirit in their beliefs and culture, and has never been stingy to use it to educate her little brother. But they don't know that in China, thousands of years ago, there was a man named Yu Gong, who took his sons and daughters to split mountains and rocks. This is the ancestor of the strong-willed.

Put willpower aside first and talk about Xiao Xianrou.

I don’t know when it started, but there are such a group of people around us: they are strong, masculine, have a sense of humor, and can easily attract the attention of little girls, they wear black-rimmed glasses, wear Converse sneakers, and they are not talking about Kraft The card is Haruki Murakami, and more importantly, each of them loves running and "Run, Brother."

Such people are called little fresh meat, and the protagonist Louie in "Unbreakable", although like Andy in "The Shawshank Redemption" and Fugan in "Forrest Gump", belong to the strong willed, but more important The point is: Louie is a little fresh meat.

Louis' childhood, like other little fresh meat, was either bullying or being bullied. He lived like a mouse in the street all day long. Later, Louis' brother was smart and knew that little fresh meat had a lot of energy and had to find a place to vent, attracting Louis. the road of running.

Unlike Haruki Murakami, the amateur marathon runner who portrayed running in a forceful manner decades later, Louis ran out of town, out of California, to the Berlin Olympics, and even dreamed of winning a gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics. Become an authentic professional runner. I would very much like to attribute Louie's strong will in the long years to come to his love of running. Because I know that the process of long-distance running is very similar to those experiences that Louis has encountered, and I will be unable to extricate myself from perseverance and giving up countless times.

Some people say that the ideal is peaceful, but history is cruel. Just when Xiao Xianrou was planning to win the gold medal, marry Bai Fumei and become a winner in life, World War II broke out, the Tokyo Olympics were cancelled, and the dream was interrupted. Xiao Xianrou's strong willpower is manifested here for the first time: since he can no longer run on the road, he will put on his wings and fly to the sky.

Xiao Xianrou's Fantastic Drift

Xiao Xianrou Louis joined the army and became an official ally in the air force.

After successfully destroying several Japanese Zeros, their planes also crashed in the Pacific as usual.

Another crisis in Xiao Xianrou's life followed. This time, he was going to experience the fantasy drifting of a young pie in the boundless Pacific Ocean. Two boats, only enough fresh water and food for a week, sharks swarming around, and the occasional Japanese fighter plane, I can't imagine a worse environment than this.

In normal times, it is extremely difficult for a fat person to become thin, but in this environment, it becomes extremely simple. Although the only chocolate he stole, there was no way to escape the tragedy of starvation. Xiao Xianrou was crying while eating sashimi, struggling with his last breath.

After 45 days, they miraculously survived. If they have to investigate the cause, it may only be the oath that Xiao Xianrou made to God when he was half asleep:

"If you let me get through this, I will. Dedicate my life to your existence."

Don't stare at my eyes . After the

little fresh meat finally got rid of Hemingway's fate in The Old Man and the Sea, he met his biggest nemesis in his life, the Japanese officer Otori.

As a man, the name Big Bird is domineering enough, but it doesn't stop him from being so narrow-minded that it is almost perverted. This name has also become a nightmare for Xiao Xianrou. In his dreams, the words Big Bird told him often appear: Don't stare into my eyes. In the factory, in the coal mine, and in the wharf, the little fresh meat has been subjected to inhuman abuse by the big bird. A soldier of the US imperialism has turned into a prisoner of the Japanese imperialism, enduring humiliation all day long, living in front of free labor Excruciatingly miserable.

Under such a situation of being abused and undertaking high-intensity physical labor, Xiao Xianrou's fate should theoretically be miserable, but even under such adversity, he still survived as strong as Xiaoqiang. Xiao Xianrou has long been unconcerned about the causes and consequences of the war. He endured the humiliation in the concentration camps, and willingly carried pieces of coal ballast and gravel, just for a seemingly unreachable hope: to go home and persist. Go back to your home.

This hope culminated when he was abused by Big Bird for the last time, the roar of Xiao Xianrou holding his wooden hair high, like the

final result of Mel Gibson's "Freedom" in "Braveheart", wise You must have guessed it: the big bird is cowardly, the little fresh meat has gone home, and a hero is born.

Leave Hope to Faith

After watching the movie, Xiao Xianrou's adventures tell us that indestructibility comes from the power of hope and faith.

In the face of pain, why some people choose to persevere and some people choose to give up, this is an unanswerable question.
Choosing to persevere seems to be a matter of course, but few people do it. Choosing to give up seems incomprehensible. But most people are rushing, why when faced with the right choice, they choose to cast the right opposite.

Because they have no hope, no faith.

Hope and faith are like a highway full of flowers, winding, wandering, blooming, and withering between persistence and abandonment. When you want to choose to give up, think that as long as you choose to persevere, you can see this colorful road not far away, and the frustration and exhaustion you feel when you choose to persevere are just what you felt before embarking on this road. The mud you have to go through.

Muddy is short-lived, but this road is our life, just like Xiao Xianrou said at the end of the movie:

Isn't the glory of a lifetime worth a minute of pain?
