May you be well as you grow up.

Although it's the kind of show that you know the ending after watching the beginning, I was still moved by Matt Damon's acting skills. He is a husband who lost his wife, and he is a father who lives with his two children. Beside himself and blame himself, in order to change the status quo, he is doing his own efforts, trying to make the family come out of the sadness of loss, he gave up everything in the city, and took root in the zoo with his children, he watched his daughter and the animals happy Even if the son is reluctant to come to the zoo, he will use "there is a sister at home who even believes in the Easter bunny" to persuade his son. He was a little bit broken about getting along with his son, but fortunately, after suffering the setbacks along the way to rebuild the zoo, "I've always been a fan of your paintings, did you know that?" He was moved by the affection between them again and again. I knew they would get better, but I was just moved. Facing the dying tiger, he tried his best to save it. When he was sitting in the same space with his son, the tiger, I seemed to feel that the dying tiger was the embodiment of his dead wife. Faced with life and death again, this time, he understood, he let go and got something. Growth, is it not like this, I wish you well.
