Originally thought to be an ordinary inspirational story, but the surprises are endless: the two main lines of the labor movement and Billy's awakening intersect, emotionally revealing a kind of overloaded passion, and in the theme, the limitations brought by inspirational movies are derived, which really sets the scene. The brilliance of human love is projected in the real low-level society/extremely difficult environment; the character setting is rich in layers, and there is no lack of bold characters that this type of film lacks. The female teacher, like Billy, is looking for liberation and happiness, or becoming herself; the editing rhythm is very musical, stepping on points, flashbacks, friendship, family affection, and the original desires are all in the editing; the design of heavy scenes is also revealed Showing the director's profound feelings about life, the characters' reactions are natural and reasonable and dramatic; another personal favorite, the director's film language style has a strange flavor, mixed with joy and irony, as well as a challenged humor. Of course joy still dominates.
The ending actually has a kind of cool, aloof descending undertone. Failed rights protection, female teachers who failed to hold their sustenance. However, the vigor, friendship, understanding, and no turning back shown in the film will increase the powerlessness brought by the less positive future. Maybe this is life. A good thing does not make life soaring, but these beautiful things are the reason we strive for it, and it is also worth experiencing. So all in all, it's still a happy movie. An inspirational story without pretense.
