I like this movie very much. Let me remind everyone to pay attention to a very important character in the film, Mrs. White, the protagonist’s wife.
In a pure-men movie about cross-country running, women are really easy to become vases. But the wife of this film is simply perfect.
On the first night when the host moved to McFarlane, he was so depressed that he wanted to leave, and his wife comforted her. The male lead led the team for the first time, and his wife said that it was not bad to take fourth place (only four teams^_^)
Notice the cover of the book Mrs. White is reading? It's Van Gogh's self-portrait! This book is not a biography of Van Gogh but also an art book.
Look at the interior when they first moved here, standard kitchen utensils, and furniture. In fact, they are in pretty good condition and tidy. After looking at the room for a while. It is full of artworks and decorations, and it is very emotional.
The paintings on the walls at home show artistic accomplishment.
The most special thing is that Mrs. White never complained about poor conditions, remoteness, chaotic law and order, and educational conditions in the whole film. Even though White missed his daughter's birthday due to training, he did not quarrel or complain. Instead, he helped White mediate.
Instead, Mrs. White quickly made friends with her neighbors (punky nail girlfriends, etc.) and became a bond between White and the community.
When White faced an offer from a middle-class community school, their daughter was frightened by witnessing a bloody conflict at the coming-of-age ceremony and was in a relationship with an old Mo. White has a good house, a good salary, a good school, and a good future when he quit. At this time Mrs. White did not show any racial discrimination or any worries. Instead, he has been reminding White from the perspective of the community, reminding White that these people are his friends, and only the people here will feel that what he does is important, and only the parents here will love him because of what he does.
How lucky it is to have a reasonable helper who loves art and life. Perfect to unreal woman.
