Come and see God! Did Daniel Day-Lewis make "I'm Left Foot" or did "My Left Foot" catapult Daniel Day-Lewis to international stardom? I think everyone may arbitrarily choose the former. I don’t think the two are actually contradictory, but they complement each other and are indispensable. Comparing it with the same movie star "Forrest Gump", everyone who has seen it knows that this Christy is more troublesome than ForrestGump. Therefore, it can be said that Daniel's challenge is also higher than Tom's. In terms of plot, compared to the slightly opportunistic Forrest Gump, which is an American-style simple story style of bitterness and sweetness, this film with deeper contents of European culture is more profound, warm and close to the cruel reality. It's just that the mainstream status of American films and the unique narrative and shooting techniques make people talk more about "Forrest Gump". Of course, both films are equally good and equally shocking to the hearts of all moviegoers. Praise the greatness of life, family love and friendship, and let us cherish the happiness in front of us with tears. As for Lewis, I can't think of any fancy words. I think what he shows us in this film is no longer acting, but God's ability to imitate, which is God's ability! Perhaps he made a private deal with God: borrowing God's imitation power for the price of two ribs. His extraordinary efforts in his acting career are like his own interpretation of this disabled and determined character's endless life, maybe this is why he can become one of the best actors in the world. Finally, let's applaud Christy Brown, the prototype of the film's protagonist, while applauding all the staff who have contributed to this film, stand up, bow, and salute!
