If it hadn’t been recommended by teammates, they wouldn’t have noticed it, because few people watched it, resources and subtitles were hard to find, and the subtitles that could be found had a high error rate, which affected viewing. In addition to English, there were a lot of Spanish dialogues, and I would watch them without subtitles. I don't understand, so my teammates simply made subtitles for me, moved?

When my teammates were in high school, the teacher showed them in the classroom. They said that they were films that represented the United States, because they involved immigration, AP courses, and ETS (educational testing services), not just the background of the story (the 1980s). , has influenced generations of people in the decades since. This is a story about an old immigrant (teacher) leading a new immigrant (student) to change their fate. It also opened the curtain on how the American elites create rules to protect their own interests. Just like the teacher's accusation in the movie, ETS claims to be impartial and confidential, but Where is the justice for the different treatment of elite schools in rich areas and ordinary schools in immigrant areas?

In the end of the movie, the children proved themselves with their strength, but they could not shake the status of ETS in the slightest. Even today, decades later, invisible discrimination is still popular. If you want to join their game, you have to follow their gameplay. of Asian-American test takers are smart and obedient. They rarely resist (or cannot resist) when they are suspected of cheating on AP exams because their scores are too good.

It goes without saying who has the right to speak, and there is nothing new under the sun.

    The subtitles are not particularly good and affect the look and feel, but overall it is a pretty good inspirational film, and this film is different from the conventional script of traditional inspirational films. The plot trend highlights the teacher's personality charm, which is also a point I like. The performance of the male protagonist in this film is very commendable, it is a very deep performance, and there are also many brilliant scenes.

    Technique trumps content. Perhaps the focus of the whole film has never been the inspiration of poor students, but the racial issues and the significance of the times behind it are the core. Motivating enough, yet boring enough...
