Life is like a cookie box

Little Eddie got dressed at night and shouted that he was going out to participate in the Olympic Games. Mom took the opportunity to hand over an empty cookie box and asked her to use this box to come back with the gold medal. After Eddie went out, Mom asked Dad to go out to find him. Dad drove around a few times, found him, talked to him, and took him home. Such a simple two scenes are enough for me to cry. On the one hand, I was really jealous of this kind of warmth, and on the other hand, I was moved by the thought of being a parent like this in the future.

The best way to watch this movie is to not try to understand Eddie's real life story first, it is better to watch this movie as a pure drama. The movie ended after Eddie's 90-meter platform jump. People who read Eddie's story for the first time would have thought that in the next four years, Eddie would improve rapidly with a little practice and won the 1992 Winter Olympics championship in one fell swoop. But the reality is cruel. Eddie failed to get a ticket to the Olympic Games for the next three consecutive years, but this is also the most charming part of this story, just like the sentence always mentioned in the movie. "NOT THE TRIUMPH, BUT THE STRUGGLE."

Life is like a cookie box, you never know what surprises you or your children will fill up with next, which is why I still can't bear to throw away those beautiful perfumes I received when I bought perfume. Box.

Eddie the Eagle quotes

  • Eddie Edwards: I just thought we could have a little chat about me being an Olympic ski-jumper.

    Bronson Peary: You've more chance of being a ballerina than a jumper.

    Eddie Edwards: Good one. I was juts after a few tips, really.

    Bronson Peary: Give up, there's one for free.

  • Bronson Peary: [showing Eddie the models of the different ramps] I felll in love with this sport, man. It started with this little baby. This 15 metre little vixen. You manage to land that because it's meant to hook you into the sport, right, so otherwise you wouldn't even bother trying. The 40 meter, when you stack you get bruised, which I don't have to explain to *you*.

    Eddie Edwards: [chuckles] Sorry.

    Bronson Peary: The 70 metre, you break bones and you're lucky if you can walk again. The 90 metre. The goddess. Let's just say in the Wild West we'd be measuring you for your coffin before you even reach the stairs. Never forget that, kid.
