I was pleasantly surprised to find that the 14-year-old daughter in the film was played by Scarlett Johansson. She was fresh and refined when she was a child. As unexpected as Manshi (looking at them as if they had never had a childhood). And Kristin Scott Thomas, who played the heroine Anne, had a great performance in another film I liked, The English Patient, in which she had a similar experience: being married and being loved and lover. The male protagonist Tom, this charismatic performer is also the director of this film, Robert Redford. I look familiar, but I can't remember seeing it in any film. He was 62 years old when he made this film, and his face was pitted, but he still couldn't hide his charm and style. American men, take it.
A brief introduction to the characters:
Mother Anne: The daughter of a diplomat, she lost her father at the age of 12 and is the editor-in-chief of a well-known magazine. Strong, resolute, resolute, and strong.
Father Robert: Lawyer, loves his wife and daughter dearly, not many roles.
Daughter Grace: 14 years old, the only daughter in the family, good at horseback riding. There is a fine horse named "Pilgrim".
Tom the Horse Whisperer: A western cowboy who has a special talent for communicating with horses and is well versed in horse culture.
Storyline: Grace and her friends are riding and chatting in snowy upstate New York, and an accident occurs. The friend was killed on the spot, and Grace survived, but her right calf was amputated, and the horse "Pilgrim" was seriously injured. It was a miracle to live, and she was also extremely frightened. Mother Anne did not accept the veterinarian's advice to euthanize the 'pilgrim', arguing that the horse, like her daughter, could heal and start a new journey. She found Tom Booker, a horse-speaker, in a pile of documents, and when she failed to ask him to come to New York, she was determined to drive her sick daughter and horse to the west to find a horse-speaker in person.
Talk about a few things that touched me deeply.
1. Calm and strong.
This scene appeared in the hospital. Annie, who came back from the busy workplace, did not mourn and cry when she heard the sad news that her daughter was about to have an amputation, but was very calm. Now that it has happened, Enron accepts it, which is more common in Western values. She tried hard to cheer her daughter up, and drove long distances to the west to find horse whisperers, even if there was only a chance. Of course, she also has moments of sensitivity and vulnerability. When the horse whisperer trains a horse, she can be moved to tears for the horse, and she can't even look directly at her. I think for an elite lady with experience in New York, this kind of scene handling is more reasonable. Her pain is deep inside. And her pain can be explained in the play where the mother and daughter hug each other and cry: the daughter is dissatisfied with her mother's self-righteousness and her high demands on her, and she asks her mother to make her a perfect daughter image to show her perfect mother image. She told her daughter that she only wanted her to grow up and know what she was and what she wanted to be. If you don't really love your daughter, why drive all the way to the empty west, you won't be understood and even get fired by the boss.
2. Convergence and reason.
Annie and Tom fell in love, and after several exchanges, the two proud and excellent hearts slowly approached. At the end, Annie asks Tom, "Why does this happen?" Tom says, "I won't ask those questions. I dare not fall in love with you, but I do. "I really think Tom answered wisely, how can there be so much truth in true love. But he was so sensible that when Annie asked him if she would stay a few more days, he asked, "And then?" Yes, they were destined not to be together, what's the point of spending more days together?
I think this film is good because life is full of variables. How should we face when misfortune comes? How do some people choose to face unexpected love in middle age? The film answers at least these two questions. The first is a strong face and a positive response. The second rational restraint is hidden in the heart.
I also think that the good thing is that the hero and heroine have successfully portrayed their characters. I really like the characters they create. They have character, pride, aura, ability and charm, and because of this, they are attracted to each other.
The more impressive one came out, Tom asked Grace to learn to drive. Tom asked Grace if she could drive, and Grace said she was not old enough. Tom said that only when you are young can you be good at art. Grace looked at him seriously and said timidly that she couldn't, or that she couldn't (the right calf was a prosthetic). Tom got in the car and went to the co-pilot and said, "I don't have a whole day." So Grace couldn't hold back his momentum and had to sit in the driver's seat... In the end, it was successful, even if the prosthesis was not old enough, Grace could not Great drive. Of course, this is the plot of the movie. What I want to say is that some people are naturally lively, skilled in art, and can bring people trust and confidence. This is both a kind of ability and a kind of charm.
