Walter used to live in New York, but he has never been to Broadway, and he has never visited the Statue of Liberty on Ellis Island. He is obviously a person who is not very good at making fun of himself.
The son is in London, and the wife passed away. It is certain to live alone and lonely.
His wife was playing classical music, and the old Walter also tried to find something in the piano that was getting closer to the fun of his old age, but he hired four teachers in a row, but nothing worked.
Walter lectures as little as possible, and always seems to concentrate on writing books. He does not talk about his work, does not accept papers submitted by students late, and even his own co-writer papers are too lazy to preach. Work is for him. It is really stubborn to a heinous degree.
Walter smiles casually, with a bitter face all day long, and has no enthusiasm for getting along with people. If you can talk to people, you can fool them. It must be difficult for professors to have good friends.
If it is not necessary to preach, if it is not for Tarek, if it is not for the black brother who happened to be on the side of the road and beating the drums, it is conceivable that the rest of the old Walter's life must be not miserable but also extremely boring.
At this time, Walter met Tarek, a young man who had no green card, no serious job, and played music all day.
The two people who were originally unrelated, who were originally two people with completely different living conditions, met at this time. The whole process of practicing drumming and Tarek's detention and deportation changed Walter. He visited the Statue of Liberty up close for the first time, watched the Phantom of the Opera, set up a street stall, and worked as a street performer.
Although the old Walter was still very few words in the end, he found a funny thing, the calm and monotonous life was broken, and the whole person was reborn.
Good movies often tell the truth of life. Through living characters and stories, they dive into the inner world that people have been ignored by themselves, and inspire sparks of one kind or another.
In fact, why should people look for spiritual truth from the world of light and shadow, isn't the real world also so dramatic? Look at the changes of the people we are familiar with from yesterday to today, watch the true stories of the people around us, feel our daily joys, sorrows, sorrows, and amplify these. Don’t let boring things occupy our time to feel the soul. The mind will also become sensitive.
