Chinese teacher: When it flies, it feels a little weird.

Little boy: The eagle is the best bird to fly.

Teacher: I didn't mean that.....

Boy: Because everything is so quiet?

Teacher: Exactly.

......

Teacher: Did you notice that we speak very quietly? It seems that we are afraid to speak loudly, as if we dare not yell in a church.

Boy: That's because people are nervous.

Teacher: No, it's not just that. It is a kind of intuition, a kind of respect.

.....

Boy: Someone will ask me: "Is it tamed?" What kind of taming, the eagle can't be tamed, it's just being manipulated, its nature is wild and violent, it doesn't care about anyone, even me, it doesn't care about it, this It's an amazing place.

Teacher: Many people don't understand. They like their pets to stick to themselves.

Boy: I don't care about this, I keep it because it is beautiful and handsome, and it can fly. Let others raise their parrots. Parrots are incomparable with Hawks.

Teacher: You are right, Billy.

Boy: do you know? teacher. I think it is kind to make me look at it like this.

    A rough glimpse of life from the bottom, documentary-style shooting and unplayed actor performance, presented sharply and sharply without any filters at all, choosing between a real "fact" and a fictional "fiction". In a more naturalistic realism, behind Casper's dirty, embarrassing, and disgusting, stands the class barriers that are unavoidable and insurmountable for generations of high-level bottom and mining families. It's more profound than Black's strength decades later. The relationship between the boy and the eagle is the only part of hope. The statement that the eagle has always been proud and untamable applies to the body and soul that have been disciplined and punished by human nature for thousands of years.

    The boy who always looked sad, the only spiritual existence in his bleak childhood disappeared. Ken Lodge's realism is sharp and unsensational, and this style is simply cold and violent.
