"The History Boys" (2006) is one of the British Film Festival's selections this year. It moved from the stage to the big screen, and the actors are all on the same stage. The stage version won several awards, including six Tony Awards. I think the film version Do n't miss it.

Director Nicholas Hytner's previous works include "The Crucible" (1996) and "The Madness of King George" (1994).

The story and script are arranged by the stage version of musical playwright Alan Bennett. I

like this film very much . Come to the most

exciting inspirational growth film. All actors have outstanding performances, each has its own unique side, and each has its own strengths. Since the students in the story are all A-level excellent students who are preparing to be admitted to the famous Oxford and Cambridge in the UK, the dialogue is academic but not difficult to understand. The audience is not only involved in literature and history, but also in life-enriching. One lesson.

The background of the story is Sheffield in the 1980s. Eight preparatory students with excellent grades are highly respected by the school. The principal hopes that they can be admitted to the first-level universities. For Ligu, the professors prepare a series of "General" for them. Studies" course. Later, Irwin (Stephen Campbell Moore), a history teacher who is also said to be from Cambridge, was hired to equip these students. The whole film revolves around the preparations of several teachers and eight outstanding students before the university entrance examination. The plot is rich Hilarious and touching.

Stephen Campbell Moore (Irwin) had "A Good Woman" (2004) before, with a sense of mystery, especially his eyes. Love his opposite scene with Dakin (Dominic Cooper), both ambiguous and funny .

Literature teacher Hector (Richard Griffiths) has been involved in many episodes of "Harry Potter", and this time is also quite outstanding.

The only boring scene in the film is the scene where Hector and student Posner (Samuel Barnett) have a conversation in the classroom. It's a bit of a drag, but it's actually worthwhile The unembrace, uncoffin, etc. mentioned by Hector are very impressive. I remember that the principal planned to expel Hector because he violated the students. He only inspired students in teaching, but had no other quantifiable achievements. In fact, as a teacher, it can inspire Isn't the student the most important job? Of course, it is not acceptable to violate the student. The

female teacher Mrs. Lintott (Frances de la Tour, also played "Harry Potter") asked Irwin if the student had a nickname for him, because the nickname It's like a badge, an identity, an identity. And some students such as Posner are willing to share their problems with Irwin, Mrs. Lintott thinks that Irwin doesn't have what she got, at least the students won't talk to her about their hearts.

I like the last scene Mrs very much . Lintott went out and asked each of the students (years later, but they are still students in the picture) what they do now and are happy. Posner said: "I am not happy, but I am not unhappy about it." Although he has always been a small person, he is the only one who has become the most influential teacher.

It is rare to watch a movie after watching another movie. "The History Boys" is such a masterpiece. Don't miss it!

    Compared with them, we are different from idiots. We can’t even think about this kind of classroom and this kind of teaching method. This gap, what are they thinking, what are we thinking, I’m sweating all over... ....PS: Do British boys sing so well? Ben Barnes' singing voice in "Spiritual Flowers" also made me lovable~~~~~And this British voice......Ahhhh~~~
