Schooter, the heroine in the movie, the new Southern woman she expected in the 1930s created by writer Harper Lee. The female image I was looking for was unexpectedly found in an old movie.
Let me cite a few plots in the movie to illustrate why I like Scout.
[About following]
Jem insisted on going to the Ledley’s home, and Scout said, "Jem, please, I’m afraid." But he still followed his brother Jem, not being stimulated by the girl, but hoping to stay with his only relative. When he was found to return, Jem’s pants were hung by the barbed wire and left behind. When the three of the partners ran back to safety, Scout would help to pat the boy Dill on the back. When Jem was going back alone to get his pants, Sku Specially said, "Then I will go with you." "No, you stay here, and I will come back when you count to ten." Counting to 12, I heard the sound of shotguns and barking dogs. I was very scared when I saw Jim coming back. Cried out. Haha, children’s adventure activities are really real. Hahaha.
Father Atticus defended a family of blacks. In the middle of the night, he sat at the door of the defendant's house with a tall lamp and read a book. I didn't want Scout and the others to follow his eccentric father out of the house, and when they saw this scene, they rushed to his father's side, and they stood by his father's side regardless of recklessness.
【About Reconciliation】
When the conflict intensified, the little girl Scout recognized Mr. Cunningham in the crowd, and said, "Hi, hello, Mr. Cunningham. How about your land inheritance lawsuit? Don't you Remember me? I’m Jane Louis Finch. One morning, you brought us pecans, didn’t you? We talked, I called my dad out and asked him to thank you, and I was with your son Walter At school, he is a good boy. Say hello to him for me, okay? Did you know? Land inheritance lawsuits are hard to fight...I have no intentions, Mr. Cunningham."
Women's softer wisdom is the power to resolve contradictions.
[About respect]
Bu, was locked on the bed in the house. He only came out in the dead of night. You can hear his voice in the middle of the night. Once I heard him scratch the sand gate of my house... Judging from his footprints, he was about six feet five inches away. He swallowed the pine trees and cats he had caught alive. There was a long jagged scar on his face. , A mouthful of rotten yellow teeth, his eyes bulging out, and his drooling. ...A lunatic lives in the house. (Sometimes I really think the imagination of children is rich and lacking haha~) This is Scout's brother introducing the situation about cloth to the neighbor boy. The only mysterious unknown in Meigang Town has become an important adventure in the children's childhood life.
Finally, the siblings went to the countryside to participate in the Halloween party. The little girl dressed up as a ham, and walked home with the ham model on foot after her clothes were gone. Encountered an assault on the way, Boo rescued Scout, took the unconscious Jem home, and Scooter ran home... Then she saw Boo who was standing behind the door and dropped their lives. Miss Scout was very gentle. He smiled, "Hey, Boo." Then he took Boo's hand, "Do you want to say good night to Jim? Mr. Arthur." Scout was completely unaffected by the various prejudiced words in the past, to the lawyer Father said, "Mr. Tate is right,...it's like killing a robin, isn't it?" Then he sent the cloth home, he let the cloth bend his arms so that she could hold him so that the cloth resembled each other. A gentleman accompanies her on the sidewalk. As a woman, Scout tries to make a man respected. This is the woman Scout.
In addition, I also like the many loving daily words and behaviors of the Scout brothers and sisters. Like Jim lying on the railing, Scout sits up so that Jim can rest on his legs, in a tacit and loving posture.
In the movie, you can truly understand a person until you put yourself in the place and think of others and walk into the hearts of others. After meeting the people I admire, I found that a large part of their success is that they have the power to take care of people, and I hope I can do the same.
Yes, I hope to gain the power of women in the process of growing up, to become a girl like Scout, or to be friends with such a girl for life.
