This film tells the story of a ten-year-old genius who has gone through the accident of losing his twin brother, but because of the shadow of his family and feeling lack of warmth, he sets foot on the train to Washington alone to receive the award. The film is slow and eloquent, which is exciting, uplifting, and moving and sad.
The teenager has great interest in everything, so in his eyes everything in the world is a friend. When he first set foot on the train, the mountains and rivers during the journey were beautiful and suffocating, but what struck me most was the little boy’s eager exchange to the sun:
[Chemical composition of the sun: hydrogen, helium, oxygen, iron, neon, nitrogen, silicon, magnesium, and sulfur
How beautiful the sun is, and at the moment when it is about to bloom, the light of surprise sends greetings!
A person can salute the sunrise affectionately, that happiness is more dazzling than a dream]
He took a telescope to observe the birds and fish carefully
He fantasizes about a friend who blindly wears a cowboy hat and communicates passionately with him
I am immersed in the intoxicating scenery, and I am even more fascinated by the little boy's love and exploration of life.
But every time the little boy sees something, he thinks of a fragment of his family’s life. This is a reflection of his heart, longing for the warmth of the family. This feeling of missing family members grows stronger in the second half of the journey. One is to leave for a long time. Family, the second is to read my mother's diary. Because the whole family was shrouded in grief because of the accident, deliberately not mentioning it does not mean that it did not exist. This was a stab, which stabbed the teenager and other members as well. Lack of communication and psychological counseling, the little boy planted a huge shadow, and always felt ashamed of his younger brother. The determination and courage that made him run to Washington despite the difficulties and obstacles is this guilt and nowhere to speak. Like the little boy, it is not for him to stand up, and the whole family will not move towards reconciliation so quickly.
The scenes shot in the movie are really beautiful, mountains and flowing water, sun and clouds, blue sky and grass, I really want to immediately embark on the road of travel and feel the beauty of nature. Recently I am also watching travel documentaries, mainly in Europe. Not only the scenery, but also culture, art, and food are all yearning. This year I plan to understand all relevant European knowledge clearly, and I can set myself a goal: before the age of 30. Complete the European line of travel
The movie also makes me sigh that experts are called experts because of their outstanding ability to continuously work and think. In addition to inheriting his mother's strong genes, the little boy is so good that he is focused on things, constantly thinking, constantly practicing, exploring and improving. While in the car, the little boy also picked up his notebook to write [daily observation], thinking [why you can’t find glasses with glasses] [why you pay taxes and angrily say what they are doing with the money了], this kind of [superpower] is important, it is what the public can learn but are too lazy to learn.
Finally, feel the nature, feel the life!
