Suffering will pass

This is a pretty good story. In fact, the hero and heroine in the play can't say who saved who, they just support each other as people living together in this world.

Stephanie's experience showed me the possibility of how a person can emerge from a life-changing situation. From her performance in the bar at the beginning, it can be seen that she was a very confident and proud woman before suffering the pain of her broken leg. After meeting Ali in the bar, although Ali was the one who helped her get rid of the dispute, Stephanie still looked down on him in her heart. Facing Ali's diligence and courting, she showed a kind of person who walked past the flowers and did not touch the leaves. indifferent.
Then we learned that Stephanie was a killer whale trainer, and in that life-changing aquarium performance, we saw her love for her career, love for life, and her positive attitude blossoming within her. The dazzling brilliance that belongs to a beautiful woman.
Behold, what a happy and beautiful woman she is!
With the sound of the song "firework", I also seemed to be in the audience seat in front of the pool, watching the woman on the terrace waving her arms vigorously and vigorously, and then a killer whale jumped out of the water and stopped in the blue sky. The harmonious atmosphere between man and nature is fully revealed.

Then tragedy struck, when Stephanie's legs were bitten off by her beloved killer whale, leaving her disabled.
One scene that impressed me is that she opened her eyes blankly in the empty dead ward, as if she didn't know why she was here, she was about to get out of bed, but she was weak, and then she pulled the sheets.
The camera moved out, and the female colleague who noticed the difference rushed to the ward, and then the woman's slightly poignant questioning voice sounded.
With the daze of just waking up, with the disbelief of the facts, with the absurd feeling of falling into a dream.
In the end it all turned into despair and grief, she asked.
"What's wrong with my legs?" "What's wrong with my legs?"
Later, I watched Stephanie become increasingly depressed and gloomy. This is a process of gradually fading a colorful life into a black and white silent film.
It was very sad to see.
Stephanie's beautiful makeup before her broken leg is very different from the decadent look after her broken leg, which creates a tragic atmosphere of good fortune and makes people feel the devastating blow of the accident. , which is embarrassing.

The male protagonist, Ali, is a completely different person from the female protagonist. He is a casual person, without a stable and glamorous job, without a place to live, wandering alone and with children. His rude, irascible, and informal temperament filled his life with an element of instability, and others saw him as a nuisance.
And when I saw him, I got the feeling that he hasn't grown up yet, he is still a child, even though he is so burly.
He has no sense of responsibility to his son, to his family, to society, or even to himself.
His nature is not bad, but his casual personality and lack of sense of responsibility make him think less about everything, more impulsive, and of course, very frank.
These two people met.

Ali's frankness allowed him to help the devastated Stephanie without pretentiousness. When Stephanie lacked the courage to face a new life, it was Ali's old eyes and attitude, and it was Ali's example that made her understand that even if Without legs, she is still her, the value of life and the joy of life will not be detracted by the disability of the body.
"Are you going to swim?", "I'm going?", "Are you going to have sex?", "Call me when you need it."
She can swim, have sex, go to the karaoke hall, and work without her legs.
It's not that the environment of life has changed, but her mentality has changed. You see, after swimming, she couldn't hold back her excitement. She played music in a small room, spun her hair around and danced in a wheelchair. At this time, her love for life and life reappeared, and her whole person was also affected by this. There is vitality.
Life can't be smooth sailing, more or less there will always be suffering waiting for us, but don't give up your vision of the whole life because of temporary setbacks, because suffering will always pass, and there will always be happy things waiting for us after suffering.

Then came the second scene that impressed me, still with the song "firework".
After Stephanie and Ali had sex, Ali left, and then Stephanie turned the wheelchair to the balcony. She quietly looked at the scenery in front of her, and then she couldn't restrain the urge of her hands, and started a jumping melody - she was practicing the training of killer whales. gesture.
At first, her movements were slow and stagnant, and then became smoother and more energetic, and then the music gradually played from small to large, she did not hesitate one gesture after another, her arms rotated vigorously, and I was in tears off the screen. Eyebrows - The beautiful woman I saw in the aquarium before has finally reappeared.
Katy Perry's firework is also more resonant than ever before. From this scene on the rooftop, I felt the precious resilience and resilience of life.
In the popular words now, it is this scene, which is special, special, and especially positive, which brings people moving and courage.

While Stephanie came out, Ali encountered his predicament.
I can feel Ali's desire for a better life and the cherishing of his family and his relatives: he worked hard to find a job, cared about his sister, and used his hard-earned money to buy toys for his son Sam after winning a fight. But it was his character that caused him and the people around him a lot of trouble.
He installed cameras in his sister's supermarket to help the boss monitor employees, which resulted in his sister being fired.
He must have been shocked by his actions when he knew - he hadn't thought that his actions would cause this, he just wanted to make more money.
So when his sister asked, "Aren't you going to say anything?", he didn't say a word, he didn't know what to say.
That's why he shoved the table angrily after his sister slapped him.
I believe his anger is not at his sister, but at himself for causing so much trouble to his family.
He hated himself for being reckless and useless, hating himself for not taking care of his family well, like putting Sam in the kennel, like throwing Sam on the sofa in a rage, like this time, making his sister unemployed.
That's why he packed up and left in silence when his brother-in-law pointed a gun at him and told him to get out.

People like Ali can usually live pretty well by themselves, and they/they don't have high requirements for the quality of life. The worst is the worst, picking up garbage when they are hungry, and looking for gun friends when they are empty, and they can always survive. But they/they are easily blamed by others because their/their casual nature will cause trouble for others, who don't have their/their informal nature.
In the end, this character also made Ali taste the consequences for himself. Because of his negligence, he almost lost his son Sam.
I don't know if this lesson taught him how important it is to have a sense of responsibility.
After Sam was sent to the hospital for rescue, Ali leaned against the glass in the emergency room in a daze, his hands smashing ice rusted. After Sam's condition stabilized, he received a condolence call from Stephanie.
Ali was calm at first, but in the end he broke down, and he weakly pleaded with Stephanie not to hang up, he recalled the previous moment of crisis in horror, his voice trembled, and he still cried.
At least 1.8 meters tall, a burly and powerful man who had practiced Muay Thai, crying like a child at the moment.
On the other side of the phone, Stephanie listened quietly, she knew that this man needed to vent at this moment.
Before hanging up, Ali said to the phone, "I love you".

The ending narration says that a broken phalanx will never heal completely, and every punch may cause pain, like a needle stick.
I think this is fine. Every time I feel pain, I can remind Ali: hey! You have to be a responsible man!
This is my impression after watching. Although people always have difficulties and make mistakes, but slowly solve and change slowly, everything is still in time, and the suffering will always pass.
