The principle is that those emotional peak moments have the greatest effect on shaping the human subconscious, and the earlier the shaping behavior, the greater the impact on people. Freud believed that childhood experience and sex are the driving forces of all human behavior, because childhood is the earliest emotional experience, and sex is the most primitive and strongest emotional driving force.
However, childhood and sex do not determine a person's life. There are many such exceptions. For example, a person’s childhood is relatively dull, and the shocking experience of his youth may still determine the direction of his life. What is more, a person may be mediocre for a lifetime, and only be shocked in old age to find meaning in life. Where.
To be honest, the plot of this film does not excite me like most "inspirational films", because in Rudy, apart from persistence and dreams, I can't see the talent and hope at all! Rudy is like an ordinary classmate around you and me, but he was poisoned by the "University of Notre Dame football team" in his childhood and became an idiot. He wanted to enter the best college football team in the United States at the time! However, you don't look at your own innate conditions. Can you compare with those football stars? A short man, not strong enough, and looks extremely average in all respects. Of course, except for one thing, that is the death of the only friend who encouraged him not to give up his dreams, finally driving this poor child who was only daydreaming all day crazy.
He began to pursue his dreams frantically, at all costs. It took two years to transfer to the University of Notre Dame. During the two years at the University of Notre Dame, I only played with the team as a sparring team. I didn't have a chance to play. On the eve of graduation, I finally got the last 27 seconds of a game and played. Some soy sauce. In four years, only 27 seconds were exchanged, and it was just soy sauce. What kind of ambition is this? It turns out that the "help the team win" in the plot introduction is also nonsense.
Dreams are indeed a good thing. "It makes real life bearable." It is also said in "The Salvation of Shawshank" that "Hope is the best in the world." But if you ignore the constraints of reality and only stare at that distant dream, then dream It becomes the "obsession" of kidnapping life, and the end result is often a head-to-head and frustration in reality, so the "dream" kills the "dream". I think Rudy was kidnapped by a dream in this film, but his difference is that because of the impact of his childhood experience and the death of a friend, his "obsession" is so strong that he can actually make He did not hesitate to pay a huge price, but also to break through the obstacles and keep moving forward.
After four years of hard work, he realized one thing, that is, the gap between his physique and skills and the top rugby players in the United States is huge, and how stupid it is to try to compete with these people on his own terms. In the end After discovering that he was still not included in the roster, his "obsession" finally collapsed. But Rudy, who is deeply "poisoned", is more "stupid" than "stupidity" itself. Up to this point, he still wants to "prove himself" and "prove it to those who say that he can't do it", at this time because of appreciation. The black man who has been helping him with his perseverance finally couldn't bear it: "You prove a shit! Who do you prove to? You are such a short and sporty damn thing, and you are already on the top college football team in the United States. Two years! While you are pursuing your idiot football dream, you have also obtained a full four years of high-quality education. Soon, your grades once shit-like guy will get the University of Notre Dame. Graduation certificate! You idiot want to prove a fart! Hurry up and give me the fuck to go back and continue training!"
Everyone has a limited understanding of "the world" and "self" and his personality is still immature. Just like to "prove yourself", and thus waste a lot of time and energy. Based on Rudy's innate conditions, it was determined that four years of hard work can be exchanged for 27 seconds of soy sauce time is the best result. There are differences in innate conditions between people and people. Not everyone can become a dazzling superstar on the field. Of course, I believe everyone has their own advantages in certain aspects and has the potential to achieve extraordinary achievements in these aspects. However, Rudy The advantage is definitely not on the football field. Not being able to clearly recognize the "reality" and being obsessed with "kidnapping" is the result of this. The cost is huge, but the gain is completely disproportionate.
But in fact, Rudy has gained more than just these 27 seconds in four years. He obtained a degree from the University of Notre Dame that his father thought "only smart children born in a rich family can get"; he had an older brother who thought he was "absolutely "Impossible to enter" the team struggled for two years; his struggle expanded the boundaries of his life, and also changed the fate of the entire family. All five younger brothers entered university and obtained degrees; he has no athletic talent at all. However, because of their tenacious will, the small players of, won the incomparable respect of the best rugby players in the United States, and were lifted up by them. In this sense, Rudy's four years are worth every minute and every second.
Since 1975, no one from the University of Notre Dame team has been carried away, and Rudy has become a legend of the University of Notre Dame.
However, from a rational point of view, because of the deviation of "self-recognition", in order to "prove" a talent that he does not possess at all, how stupid is a person who constantly competes with himself! However, what is even more stupid is that most of us have accepted the "impossibility" judged by others in such a wasteful manner in our lives, and we have not even given ourselves a chance to compete with ourselves.
