This is a movie about will, family, and love. It is very real and expresses the hearts of the characters well.
The protagonist is disabled, um, it should be said that there is something wrong with the brain, resulting in hemiplegia, so his expressions, limbs, and speech are very "tangled" - but his intelligence and emotions are sound at all. This is a very big obstacle to the expression of the characters. However, it can be said that the whole film has shaped the image and heart of the protagonist very three-dimensionally and richly. As a non-disabled spectator, when you watch the protagonist drool, shake his body, and let out a low growl, you won't pity him or feel sick; on the contrary, you understand him, understand his sadness, anger, Happy, proud, even though the form that expresses them is so different from yours and mine. I admire the two actors who play Christie very much. Not everyone can create this image. Actor Daniel Day-Lewis, who played adult Christie, won an Oscar for his touch performance.
Of course, I must also mention the actor who plays Christie's mother. This fat woman is the axis of the whole story. Her position in Christie's heart is irreplaceable, and her love for Christie is also irreplaceable. As she said herself, Christie is her spiritual sustenance. She loved him, she wanted to protect him, she gave him hope, but when he tried to pursue love, she was sadly silent - "there's too much hope in it" she said. Her love, her every move, supports his life. Without her, he would have nothing and accomplish nothing. It can be said that she is the soul of the whole story.
