Mr. Evan Street, a 73-year-old man on crutches, decided to visit his younger brother after learning that he had suffered a stroke. It was a long way to visit his younger brother, so he decided to use a lawn mower and a trailer to go there on his own. There are a few scenes in the film that made me ponder. Evan's first trip was not very smooth. He walked the 5km road guessed by his old friends, but he didn't go further, and then he took a ride to the town. , and taking the lawn mower and trailer home, he bought a new lawn mower and set off again. I think a short journey in the eyes of others, the reason Evan has to complete it by himself no matter what, is that life is coming to an end, and there are not many things to regret. One is a woman Evan met on the road. The woman spends a lot of time commuting to and from work, and she always kills a deer on the way to work. She complains about her life to the stranger Evan, and then walks away. , My impression on this is that when you can, please be sure to choose a job you are happy with, and don't fall into the misery of life. In the last scene, when Evan finally arrived at his brother's residence, the brother whom he hadn't seen for more than ten years didn't know what to say. The younger brother saw Evan's transportation and asked him in surprise if he was driving such a tool to see him. , Evan replied "yes, I did." At that moment, I thought, even if not every piece of persistence is fruitful, even if the price of persistence is not worth mentioning in the eyes of others, you should not give up. I am afraid that I will have nothing to do when I grow old, and have to face death in my spare time every day, until one day I don't want to fight and die without any suspense. I don't want to die like this, not because it's not decent, but too wasteful, so when I was young, I wanted to be a teacher, just because I heard that some people's teachers died in the classroom, I think it's good . I am afraid of death, and I am afraid of old age. The most fear is that on the road of uncontrollable old age until death, if I cannot persevere, how can I do it? Can one be stubborn? I think if you decide, be stubborn.
