I think this is really not a regular inspirational movie

The indifferent old man met a child with a particularly delicate mind, and
since then cow dung has become a flower.
The kid said, "We look at what kind of person he is and what he does."
Indeed, he is a girl who is looking for night work all day long. She is addicted to gambling and takes away her child's money without asking. The whole story is his falsity. I always greet other people’s parents, fall asleep on the ground and fall asleep on the ground like a wild grass. But he did help the prostitute to go to the hospital to take an ultrasound. Although it was a trick, he did let the child go to fight with others. Although the child was punished by the school, he did teach the child to spend more time with his mother, even though he used it. Scolding, he did go to the nursing home to see his wife washing her clothes even though he sometimes stole medicines to get some money by the way. But he never mentioned it to anyone. I have a sick wife. I took care of her for 8 years. He never mentioned that I was a hero in wartime. He never did him a good deed. Go home and write it in a small notebook.

After watching the entire play, I feel that this is a mortal at all. No one wants to sing praises to him, nor does he want anyone to sing praises to him. But only a delicate child can discover his goodness, this is the essence of the movie. Ass kid Oliver, his parents divorced, and his mother relied on her own and ran away with her son. Don't let mom worry about making her sad, wake up in the morning, go home after school, and enjoy watching the old TV show 800 years ago in the kennel-like Vincent's house, just a meal of canned biscuits. The child never said a word, nor did he dislike anything. For such a precocious and independent child, the father's cheating has been known for a long time, and his mother is quite in the dark thinking that the child is stupid. Precocious is the child's thinking mode and way of doing things, but he is still a child, what is Lady of the Night? What is a fight? What are the odds? He is still a simple ass, and he has not lost his patience to explore.

Only he thought that Vincent was a good man, and only he thought that Vincent was a saint. Lady of the night said, "He doesn't look pleasing to anyone, and no one looks pleasing to him. Only you like him." In fact, everyone is not stupid. Didn't she also live with Vincent? Someone still likes him. Although Uncle Vincent is not a nun with great feats, nor a great man with a chest blocking his gun, he is indeed a good person. It is not that there are no good people in the world, but that there is a lack of people who give others opportunities to show themselves or discover the advantages of others.

I originally wanted to end here, but suddenly I remembered that a large part of the movie is about Vincent's recovery life after a stroke. He is still the same, he didn't cry, he didn't change his mind, and he was still smoking and messing around. Later, he said, "My child, don't live like me." But he bid farewell to the past and embark on a new life. I think this is the most touching point. Vincent hasn't been in a suit since then, looking for a job to quit drinking and smoking, the direction is still the same, but he turned around and walked another way.

There is also a line I like very much, "Why do you always say please be sorry? Can't ask her if she looks good, do you want him?" This line is probably a very rare confession of tenderness by the old Vincent subway man: Don't talk about it. No, ask me how much I love her!
