truth changes everything

I ran to find a few bad movies "Hypnosis", and accidentally turned to "No More Silence". There is no big company logo at the beginning of the film, no very gorgeous title, no special introduction of the cast and crew, and some are just a girl I wanted to "sew" my mouth in my own room. This scene with a small contradiction with the title piqued my interest (well, the main thing is that Christine is too beautiful!), and the story begins with the role of Christine. Melinda suffered all kinds of bullying and all kinds of cold eyes at school on the first day of school, and some people called her a "traitor". In the flashback, Melinda was a sociable girl with a face always hanging on her face. Smiley, what made her become an isolated object of others? This certainly does not arouse the curiosity of the audience. At the end of the film, Melinda chose not to remain silent and told her mother the truth, and the curtain came to a close. The ending of the film was an open ending, and did not show the audience that Melinda was returning to her good friend's "circle of trust" ( That's right, I just met my father-in-law's fans) and left it to the audience's own fantasy, which also echoes the title of the film. I
personally think there is a very meaningful line in the movie:
"This is what I learned in biology class. If the seed is buried too deep, it will not germinate on time. Get more sunlight."
Comparing the truth to that seed, the deeper Melinda buries it, the less sunlight it dreams of.
Summary: good movie.

  • Mr. Freeman: Can anybody tell me what this is?

    [holds up a smashed globe]

    Ivy: A globe?

    Mr. Freeman: A globe? Gosh... what are you guys, 13, 14? You already let them beat the creativity outta you? It's okay. I used to let my daughters kick this around my studio when it was too wet too play outside and one day, Jenny put her foot right through Texas and the entire United States crumbled into the sea. I mean, you could... you could paint a wet muzzled dog chewing Alaska! The possibilities are endless. It's almost too much, but you all are important enough to give it too.

  • Mr. Freeman: In here is a piece of paper and on that piece of paper is a word. You are gonna spend the rest of the year turning that object into art.

    Ivy: Uh, Mr. Freeman? When I was little, I was really scared of clowns and I don't wanna relapse and have to go back into therapy.

    Mr. Freeman: Oh, yeah, well, fear is a great place to begin art.

    [Melinda picks a piece of paper that says "tree" and tries to put it back]

    Mr. Freeman: Hey! Whoa. You just chose your destiny. You can't change that.

    Melinda Sordino: I learned how to draw a tree in like the 2nd grade.

    Mr. Freeman: Oh, really? Um. Well, do you wanna show me? It's okay. I won't grade you.

    [he hands her the chalk and Melinda sulks up to the blackboard and very hesitantly draws a really pathetic tree]

    Mr. Freeman: That's a pretty good start. Yeah, let's see what it looks like at the end of the year.
