On the flight in the early morning, I watched this movie [127 hours]. This is the movie that most impresses and affects me in my life, none of them.

When you were held down by a stone, did you wait to die or suddenly burst out with an astonishing power that was on the brink of desperation? Everyone will encounter that fateful stone sooner or later in their life. What do you do when you are stuck in hell? Is it to take out the courage of a strong man to break his arm, or to accompany that stone to exhaust his life?

The film tells a real story. Outdoor enthusiast Allen was on a hike in Utah. In a remote canyon, his arm was held down by falling rocks and he was unable to move. He was trapped alone in the air. For the next 127 hours, Allen mentally endured a huge

To test, but also to examine his own life, and more importantly, he needs to use the various conditions in his hands to get out of danger. Finally, he made up his mind and performed an amputation of his arm with amazing courage, and climbed to the bottom of a 65-foot valley. At the same time, he reluctantly walked 8 kilometers before finally being rescued and successfully surviving.

The most touching thing is Allen’s momentary epiphany. "This stone has been waiting for me, even though it used to be a meteorite. It passed through the atmosphere a trillion years ago and has been waiting for me. My whole life is for me. At this moment, from the moment I was born, every breath, every movement,

To bring me here, in the cracks of the earth. "

One of the shots that shocked me the most was the success of the protagonist's broken arm

Later, he packed up and left, suddenly looking back at the surroundings, looking at the battlefield where he was struggling these days, took out the camera, took pictures of the rocks and broken arms, when he looked at the boulders that had trapped him for 127 hours and caused him to lose his arms. The corners of his mouth began to shake, and I had already yelled a word; Fuck you!, but what he said was Thank you.

When Allen’s prototype was interviewed after he was rescued, he said that he finally used the big rock to complete the broken arm. He said that he was very grateful for the rock because it was so strong that he could break his arm. It changed. Allen's whole person

Sheng, he thinks this is the biggest gift.

He also said that he smiled when he cut his arm with a sharp cut, because he knew that with every cut, he took a step closer to freedom.

I want to say Thank you to Alan, you changed me; I want to say Thank you to the stone that has been waiting for me and pressing on me, I want to smile and reconcile with this rock that broke my arm, yes You let me rethink my life, let me set out with my free soul.

    Movies I've seen before! Survival with a broken arm is really admirable!

    Photography is really too much urine~! Compared to'Black Swan' and'The King's Speech', this movie is more attractive to people like me. I imagined that something like this is happening to someone in a certain corner of the world--it is probably something that people like me have contracted since childhood...

127 Hours quotes

  • Aron Ralston: Don't lose it. Aron, do not lose it.

  • Aron Ralston: [as Brian Stephenson] Good morning, everyone! It is 7 o'clock here in Canyonlands, USA! And this morning on the boulder, we have a very special special guest, self-proclaimed American superhero, Aron Ralston! Let's hear it for Aron!

    [nods to his imaginary audience]

    Aron Ralston: [as himself] Hey. Hi. Oh, gosh, it's... It's a real pleasure to be here. Thank you. Thank you! Heh. Eh-heh. Em... Hey, can I say hi to my mom and dad?

    [as Stephenson]

    Aron Ralston: Mom and Dad! Mustn't forget Mom and Dad. Right, Aron?

    [as himself]

    Aron Ralston: Yeah, that's right. Eh... Hey, Mom. I'm really sorry I didn't answer the phone the other night. If I had, I would have told you where I was going, and then... Well, I probably wouldn't be here right now.

    [as Stephenson]

    Aron Ralston: That's for sure! But like I always say... your supreme selfishness is our gain. Thank you, Aron. Anyone else you'd like to say hi to?

    [as himself]

    Aron Ralston: Ehm... Well, Brion at work.

    Brian: Hi, Aron!

    Aron Ralston: [as himself] Hey! Eh... I probably won't be making it into work today.

    Aron Ralston: [as Stephenson] Get a load of this guy! Oh, wait. Hold on... We've got a question coming in from another Aron in Loser Canyon, Utah! Aron asks...

    [as caller]

    Aron Ralston: Am I right in thinking that even if Brion from work notifies the police, they'll put a 24-hour hold on it before they file a Missing Persons report? Which means you won't become officially missing until midday Wednesday, at the earliest?

    [as himself]

    Aron Ralston: Yeah. You're right on the money there, Aron.

    [the audience laughs]

    Aron Ralston: Which means, I'll probably be dead by then.

    [the audience laughs again]

    [as caller]

    Aron Ralston: Well, I'll tell you how I know so much. I volunteer for the rescue service. You see, I'm something of a... well, a big fucking hard hero.

    [the audience laughs]

    Aron Ralston: And I can do everything on my own, you see?

    [as Stephenson]

    Aron Ralston: I do see! Now... Is it true that despite, or maybe because you're a big fucking hard hero... you didn't tell anyone where you were going?

    [as himself]

    Aron Ralston: Yeah. That's absolutely correct.

    [as Stephenson]

    Aron Ralston: Anyone...?

    [as himself, shaking his head]

    Aron Ralston: Anyone.

    [as Stephenson]

    Aron Ralston: Oops...

    [the audience laughs]

    Aron Ralston: [silently repeats] Oops. Oops.
