There is a power called dreams

I saw this movie when I was watching a movie starring Chris Cooper. I watched it about ten years ago. I can't remember whether it was in 2001 or 2002. I watched it on CCTV's 6 movie channels. The plot is not clear, I only remember Homer. The rocket was finally launched. ====================Before and after watching the
dividing line========================================================================================================================
Take a look at it again, it's very inspirational and very touching. The stubborn son Homer wanted to build a rocket, but his father thought he should follow his father's business and go down to mine coal, and the war began. After watching it, some feelings at the time also emerged. What impressed me the most at the time was a sentence. When Homer refused his father's request to let him go down the well, he said: It's your life, not my...
At that time, I was also fighting against my family. Pretty much the same, just the ending is different. Hearing this sentence strengthened my courage to fight and wanted to live my own life. But the ending did not change, and was still ruthlessly suppressed by stubborn parents.
The young Americans of that era had a different temperament and wanted to live differently. Homer, for example, didn't follow his father's path, or Elvis Presley, who started his career in music just to try his luck and see if he could live a different life than his mason's father. It is these different young people who ushered in a new era in America.
There is a force called dreams that pushes them forward.
At the end of the film, when they put the last rocket, the father finally arrives and agrees to start the rocket himself. Father and son finally reconciled and understood. I forgot whether I cried ten years ago watching them make their way to the launch point, but now, my eyes are a little sore.
The rocket took off, flying higher than ever before, marking the takeoff of their dreams.
It's time to sort out my dreams back then. To borrow the words from the film, I'm honored to see this film.

  • Roy Lee: I'll tell you what's unbelievable... captain of the football team being jealous of you.

  • Principal Turner: Miss Riley, our job is to give these kids an education.

    Miss Riley: Mmm-hmm.

    Principal Turner: Not false hopes.

    Miss Riley: False hopes? Do you want me to sit quiet, let 'em breathe in coal dust the rest of their life?

    Principal Turner: Miss Riley, once in a while... a lucky one... will get out on a football scholarship. The rest of 'em work in the mines.

    Miss Riley: How 'bout I believe in the unlucky ones? Hmm? I have to, Mister Turner, I'd go out of my mind.
