Social problems cannot be attributed to human problems

Casey 2022-03-23 09:03:03

I told others about this movie today, saying that the harder the protagonist works, the more needles he pierces, but there is nothing he can do.

The man replied to me: Choice is greater than effort.

I retorted: we can't simply attribute social problems to human problems. If we need people to do these jobs, there will always be people who will struggle harder and harder.

In today's increasingly convoluted society, it is always accustomed to attribute social problems to people's problems, and it lacks the care and protection of the minority and even grants due rights.

    Ken Roach keenly discovered the truth of modern society. The development of science and technology has turned into a ubiquitous black box. This box can be a tracker, a mobile phone, a DingTalk, a WeChat group, or a public account backend. . All the tools that make work more convenient are also making the slavery of capital more convenient.

    A movie viewing that exceeded expectations, Ken Roach's work has the strongest emotional resonance with domestic audiences. Even though the soundtrack is minimal, it is still rational, restrained, calm and realistic, but the warm support of the family's affection under the cruel reality of reality is too touching and soft. The pain of middle-aged people, the main force of social labor, and the reflections of teenagers on parental relationships have all been well expressed, a master-level instruction. The director's training of non-professional actors has really reached the point of perfection @大时光siff
