When you reach the turning point in life

I watched this movie because I was busy, or in other words, I watched it when I shouldn't watch it.

I checked my bank account today, and I won’t be able to get my credit card for next month. I know I can’t take it easy.

In the movie, Victor is trapped at the airport. He has no money, no identity, no language, no friends, and even suspicion. It can be said that no matter how miserable we are, all of us are better than his situation.

However, not only did he survive, but his survival became more and more vivid. He was even able to help others, inspire others, and fascinated the beautiful flight attendant who "anyone he wanted" with his own nothing (saying the flight attendant 39? Lie!).

What does he rely on?

backbone. When he watched the waiter take the plate, I thought he wanted to eat the leftover food on the plate; but he didn't. He discovered the secret of the cart and worked so hard to earn himself hamburgers quarter by quarter. When the manager told him, as long as you say that you are afraid to go back to your country and you can go to New York today, I thought he would obey; but he didn’t, he said, no, that’s my home, how could I be afraid go home. I am afraid of ghosts, but I am not afraid of going home. When the exit is not guarded and there is only one door away, I thought he would push the door out; but he didn't. He silently said to the camera that I would wait here. He wants to wait until he gets out honourably, instead of slipping out like a thief.

will. In order to understand the news and to survive better, he began to learn English by himself. The same travel brochure in two languages ​​is used. Which of us has such perseverance to learn word by word? The last time I saw this was the woman in the reader. In order to make money, he asked one by one, even the underwear shop. Not to mention his perseverance to be able to wait at the airport.

At the same time, he even retained the interest and demeanor of life. When he was hungry, he didn't see anything messing up, but stacked a stack of free biscuits, which contained free ketchup and mayonnaise, as the general manager said, "very special dishes." The gentleman's demeanor in his heart suppressed his anxiety, but he had to wait until he made enough money before inviting Emilia to dinner in a suit and leather suit. He restored the "fountain with thousands of diamonds" that Napoleon gave to Josephine for his favorite girl, although his diamonds were only stained glass. And the first time he got it to buy a hamburger, the penny of "Keep the change."

He told about his purpose of going to New York: not to make money, not for the American dream, he just came to complete his right The vow his father made, he will go home. Therefore, for this oath, he can wait without fear of difficulties. It is this simple obsession that touched the heart of the beautiful stewardess.

The most shining thing is his love and sympathy for people. In this situation of nothing, he can still help others. Help an air hostess pick up the lost high heels and tell her that you can buy shoes on the second floor; help the kitchen guy confess to the stamped girl; help the guy who brought his father medicine to give up the opportunity to go out immediately; even give The supervisor who made trouble everywhere gave him his favorite fish model.

Looking back at myself, I feel ashamed that I want to hit the wall.

I always feel that I can't find a job. At least I have a driver's licence, a mobile phone, and an SSN. I can do all the simple tasks, but have I ever missed any opportunity like him?

I often feel that my English is not good enough, so do I have the perseverance to study like Victor? Have I ever stamped every day with perseverance like him?

I have the spine to say, that is my country, I must go back decently, after realizing my dream, instead of just staying here or going back dingy?

Victor will never be weak at any time, but he has never been weak.

    6/10. Mediocre to the point of being a Spielberg movie. I was only amazed by the first few shots. Suddenly losing the country one day, this is actually a high-concept movie, but under this concept, the degree of completion can only be said to be quite satisfactory. High school high-score proposition chicken soup composition.

    Tom Hank's accent is terrific, and the story is very much in line with the three laws of scripting from the beginning. In the end, all the airport staff burst into tears when they said goodbye, but it was a pity that a complete love scene was not arranged. The story is full and the supporting characters are brilliant.
