The life of an "ordinary person"

In fact, Jake is an ordinary person like most of us. When he was young, he had dreams and gave up for various reasons. Life is not smooth, has shortcomings, and can live carelessly. He is the epitome of "us".

Don't like to talk about the plot, or talk about the details.

1. Jake and sister's conversation

This conversation exposed Jake's problems to the audience, drunk, irritable, and desperate for face. Dissatisfied with his ex-wife, she asked her sister about her current situation, and her sister hoped that he could find someone to date and get out of his own world. Taking care of the family behind him, Jake also has a family who loves him.

2. Brandon (it seems to be called this, the basketball player Jake liked very much, and later became the captain)

Jake sees his own shadow in Brandon, and the director also intends to shape Brandon and Jake in the same direction. They are talented, hardworking, and loving. At the same time, there is also a father who has a delicate relationship with him. I think that in the end Brandon's father came to see Brandon to play and wrote about his father's love for his children. He also pointed out that Jake's father also loved Jake.

3. Children

Jake’s child died of illness and the other child with the same illness survived. It was a big blow to both the husband and Another child really had an accident, and Jake realized that he really didn't think so.

4. Ending

I personally like that the movie did not describe the last game in detail, but explained everything through a few narrations. I like the ending very much. Jake will obviously go back and become a coach. He has also changed, just like the last light. Everything is getting better.

Finally confess the big book, although my favorite is Cassie???
