What attracts me the most is:
It not only crosses race, country, skin color, but even crosses history and hatred. It has a big mind and dream of one family, and then presents it in a very simple and emotional and at the same time very sincere way.
It's a very ambitious movie, and it's smart and intelligent at the same time.
The story tells the story of a rich white businessman who can't move from the neck down and a poor black man who is strong and reckless and has a criminal record. The disparity in wealth and the difference in skin color make these two people seem incompatible, but in the end they become best friends. Therefore, this film is one of the rare movies in the cinema that praises the "friendship" between men and men. The friendship in the story is not based on comrade-in-arms, allies, partners...it's a friendship between a rich paraplegic and a poor black man. In the beginning, the white man hired this black man in the hope that the careless black man could ignore him when he begged to die... But he never thought of it, and then this black man saved his soul. Let him who has lost the ability to move and lost his lover feel the vitality and fun of life. At the same time, the black man who used to be wicked was also nurtured by wealthy businessmen and not only had artistic skills but also assumed family responsibilities. This is undoubtedly a story of mutual achievement between lives.
What an interesting and magical thing it is for a strange and different life to build together with another life~ What an extraordinary experience it is to meet different souls, and the most wonderful thing is mutual achievement, regardless of class, regardless of status... Just by life Giving and supporting each other, I think this is the most sincere feeling between people.
It's bland, but the truth is true. People, life... as it should be. No matter what difficulties or troughs you encounter, the vitality, hope, color, and passion of life itself should still be there...
