In fact, when I saw the title of this movie, I didn't really want to watch it. There was no way I could watch it because the teacher arranged it in class. The film tells the story of an old Jewish woman and a black driver. Watching it patiently, at the end, I can only say that I neither hate nor like this movie, but I don't have much feeling, the pace is too slow, and there are not too many waves. (But I like the old actor Morgan Freeman very much)
No matter what kind of movie it is, as long as you stop and watch it, you will find its highlights more or less. Of course, there are definitely highlights of this movie, but here I also Not much to say, the deepest impression is that the old lady and the black driver drove into the country, and two white policemen came to check their documents, and later said, it was strange, a white woman and a black man were in the same car. When I saw this, I didn’t really understand the background of the era at that time. I didn’t really understand it until I saw Martin Luther King’s speech. It turned out to be about the racial relationship between people at that time.
The story takes place in such a big background, to understand and tell the social state at that time from the perspective of an ordinary old man. The story is small and simple. It's like a real short life of a person, flashing by on the big screen.
This kind of time span is too fast, almost every stage of life is like a brushstroke, and there is not much that impresses me.
Personally, I feel that movies originate from life and are higher than life, just like novels, either they are thought-provoking, or they resonate, or they make people happy. . . . . Now my life is simple enough and unpretentious enough, so I don't like such movies very much, but I like the last "Children's Shoes", because it was childhood, I have experienced it, and it has awakened my memories. And this movie, I can't understand it, maybe I'm still too young to understand the mental state of the old man. As for the story of the old man, I still prefer "Flying House" (the first five minutes of fast playback of the life of the old man and his wife is my favorite) or warm and brisk movies like "Journey to the Family".
I like to be imaginative, I like to imagine the future, I like adventure and excitement, and I like deeply emotional people. . . I like to vent my restless heart by watching movies. . . . There is no doubt that this film can not give me too much sensory stimulation.
