Miracle rescue

Four-star

adaptations of true stories always make people cry.

At the beginning of the film, I thought I opened it in the wrong way, with the dim yellow and retro tone, just like an old movie from the last century. Then I realized that the director did it deliberately, just to create a sense of reality.
For face-blindness and name-blindness like me, it was a bit confusing at first, and then I gradually became familiar with the various roles.

I like the configuration of the role. For example, the heroine is good-looking and has a cute personality. If you like a person, you will be forced to marry. Wow, haha, it’s me; desperately rushing to "a place where women shouldn’t go" for men, Asking the chief to take his life back, I think she and the chief are right here. She is for the life of the beloved, and the chief is for his duty. In other words, if the protagonist does not go away from the perspective of God, if the protagonist really does not return , Who can say that the original decision to go to sea was correct? It is estimated that the chief will have to bear a lot of responsibility, but fortunately the ending is good.

Some other characters are also very interesting, such as the woman whose husband died and brought a bunch of children, such as the man who reported the accident. I thought it was a passerby at first, but it still led to many stories and a lot of human struggles. I also appreciate that the hostess does not hate the reporter, she is a person who knows right and wrong.

It is quite unexpected that the hero's character is so stubborn. I didn't see it at all from the beginning of the movie. When the heroine was forced to marry, she was at a loss as to what to do. She couldn't get in touch with the tough guy who went to sea to rescue behind...

Besides, the leading man on the ship was very handsome. A completely reliable image.

Of course, the faces of a few characters are still very vague, such as those who followed him to sea, of course they are noble, but it is still a bit strange for them to go out to sea resolutely. But maybe this is the complexity of human nature! ! The same person's performance in normal and critical times is always unexpected.

As a disaster film, I think the process of going out to save people is really wonderful. It’s remarkable. Waves higher than waves, bumpy boats are all the same. Questions from companions and loss of navigation can be said to be true. Thrilling. But in the second half, I didn't expect it to come back like this...

However, the actor's frozen fingers and facial muscles, frosty eye hairs, and silent silence are another indescribable sense of reality.

The last thing I want to say is thank God! The rescue was successful. I was definitely lucky. I drove a small broken ship and lost navigation on the way. I found the wrecked ship in the storm and brought more than 30 victims back. It really is. A miracle in human history.

Thanks to the four-member rescue team of Dayi Lingran;

thanks to the crew who persevere and never give up hope;

thanks to the car lights on the shore under the heroine's perseverance and leadership;

this world is so beautiful.

    Bernie Webber: Well, Mr. Stello, in the Coast Guard to say you gotta go out. But they don't say you gotta come back in. That's regulation, you know.
