half me

The often trembling sense of the camera lens, the close-up of the characters, the slightly blurred and scattered pictures, and the trance-like music, which has a very post-rocking temperament.
Everything is going on in a slow, leisurely, disorderly, near-recording and realistic way, which reminds people of Lost in Tokyo,
an elegant temperament that cannot but be infatuated with, not far away, but close to our hearts.
A mentally blurred teacher, drug addict.
Change, change, he tries to change something through himself, but reality simply ignores it. At his family gathering, he was alone, unable to fit in,
powerless, chaotic, and living in a chaotic life. He couldn't protect or even own the things he cherished. The choice of that student was not under his control, and the good feelings he once had will disappear.
How did I suddenly lose my ability to describe, I felt so weak and powerless to show my preferences.

    Samsung is very bad because of the viewing experience. negative~~ But in fact, the film is dialectical, independent, and true from the beginning to the end, although it is weak, helpless, boring, and boring. Day after day of hopelessness, struggling in the quagmire. It is said that Half Nelson is a wrestling move, so it is very relevant. The sincere film expresses that there will be no savior, but everyone's self-contest, sinking or redemption, only about themselves.

    An addict teacher, and a black student...and Nelson has been in his half-life, feeling philosophical and yet unable to articulate.

Half Nelson quotes

  • [from trailer]

    Dan: The sun goes up and then it comes down, but everytime that happens what do you get? You get a new day.

  • Dan: Change moves in spirals, not circles. For example, the sun goes up and then it goes down. But everytime that happens, what do you get? You get a new day. You get a new one. When you breathe, you inhale and you exhale, but every single time that you do that you're a little bit different then the one before. We're always changing. And its important to know that there are some changes you can't control and that there are others you can.
