I have previously read the book "The Elegy of a Countryman" written by JD Vance. The author was born and raised in the Rust Belt region of the United States. The author was born and raised in the Rust Belt region of the United States. He went to an Ivy League school all the way and finally got out of the area. He tells the Rust Belt through his family story. Many social problems in the region, and his personal story is also very inspiring. When I found out that it was made into a movie, I decided to watch the movie again. The film has made a refined treatment in the narrative, starting from the important part of Vance's pursuit of a good career after studying at Jeremiah College, which is an important part of changing his destiny. Through the life experience of Vance's mother, he brings out the rust belt region of the United States. Pervasive chronic diseases: puppy love and childbirth, divorce, repeated partner change, unemployment, drug addiction, etc., so that the next generation cannot receive a good education, and has to repeat the fate of their parents. Vance's mother and grandmother are two important characters in the film. The mother's willfulness and madness, and the grandmother's strength and wisdom, all have an important influence on Vance. Watching this movie, people in the rust belt of the United States can't help but feel pity for their misfortune, and they also have a certain intuitive understanding of Trump's basic plan. In fact, no matter which country there are a large number of poor people, even rich people such as the United States do. The voices of the poor are weak, and this film allows us to see what the poor are in America and hear their voices.
