real and rich

A movie based on a true story is often a good one, and this one was too. I watched it quietly with my sister on a cloudy afternoon today, tears welling up in my eyes.

Every character in the movie is very rich and three-dimensional. The conflict and deep love between the father and the son are gradually unfolding layer by layer. A mother's strong support and love for her son. Although there is competition between brothers, in the face of common family difficulties, both want to contribute. The friendship between the four friends is youthful and moving. The teachings of a good teacher and the encouragement that her illness brought to Hormer. Principal and whole community support. At the same time, the fate of the entire mining area is connected in series, under the background of the backward national rocket launch. The whole movie is very layered and rich in content, combined with the ending of each person in the end of the real story, such a life story can always move me.

At the same time, the recombination of the October sky letters is also very clever with small details such as Rocket boy.

    OMG so I saw this movie, it was in the Zhengda Theater a few years ago! Jake Gyllenhaal, why wasn't that impressive at the time?
