After watching movies for so many years, I used to sigh silently in my heart. After watching the movie "The Professor and the Madman", I had the idea of writing a movie review for the first time.
Whether it is the professor in the play who insists on ensuring the accuracy and perfection of academic achievements, bravely confronts utilitarian decision-makers, or the lunatic who uses abundant knowledge as the professor's academic project to help out, and seeks the value of self-existence, I see it. Qing: If a person does not have a clear goal and the courage and perseverance to persevere, he will not only miss the happiness and satisfaction when he reaches his dream, but also all the beautiful things on the way. Therefore, even in an impetuous society, we must sink our hearts, examine ourselves, and then lay a solid foundation to build strength for our dreams.
The professor in the film is a language genius without a college degree, and the lunatic is a retired military doctor who was imprisoned in a mental hospital because of the manslaughter of civilians due to war trauma. The two are accidentally linked by the vast intellectual project of compiling the Oxford English Dictionary. Together.
Out of his love for academics, the professor took on the burden of compiling a dictionary. Even if he encountered many obstacles in the process of advancement, he was still able to maintain his original intention and face the difficulties.
When faced with the obstruction of etymology collection, he launched a Wikipedia-style etymology solicitation request from the public; when faced with the harsh pressure of decision makers who only sought speed but not quality for commercial interests, he was reluctant to follow the trend and firmly believed that he could break through the obstacles. .
Soon, the professor's great persistence attracted the etymological help provided by the lunatic, and a breakthrough was achieved.
And when the lunatic received the solicitation request, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw in the dark. He devoted himself to the work of compiling the dictionary and created the value of his existence with abundant knowledge. Finally, after 71 years, the dictionary was fully launched. , which once again proves to us that a solid foundation is a prerequisite for success.
Just imagine, how many people are forced to make a short half-life choice in order to escape, and face more repeated and passive dilemma choices since then?
So in the face of things you really love, you should spare no effort to persevere! Just like babbling when you were a child, until you grow up with poetry and books, all the achievements are the accumulation of daily small things that have laid a solid foundation for you, so don’t be afraid of encountering obstacles, you must know that perseverance itself is a kind of harvest. , and time is the best witness.
