[2009] Roller Skating Girl

The plan of the day is in the morning.
After watching the long-awaited "Roller Skating Girl" early in the morning,
the evil spirit of Germany's loss in the middle of the night was swept away, and
Camel was able to face the new day with optimism and enthusiasm.

This is a good "inspirational film".
It is like a catalyst to ignite long-lost passions and
chase dreams across difficulties.
Let you see that even if there are countless dark clouds before dawn,
they can't stop the red sun rising after a while.

Ellen Page once again showed superb acting skills:
coexistence of shyness and fiery,
cowardice and bravery.
The gestures are natural,
but they are also charming in the inconspicuous.

The plot is rather cliché,
but fortunately, the characters on the stage are all vivid, which
makes the mediocre plot play a pretty good effect.
The details inserted from time to time are
also humorous and warm.

The film is also a promotional film for Roller Derby, and
it is said that many of the actors on the scene are real players.
As one of the female-oriented niche sports,
roller skating shows the agility and tenacity of women incisively and delicately.
But unfortunately, the
film did not reflect its confrontation and appreciation.
Although there are a lot of descriptions of the game,
it is more of a sense of chaos and violence.

    Colby: What's the name of that thing that if I eat it real fast, it's free?

    Bliss Cavendar: That's the Squealer. You have to eat it in three minutes or less.

    Colby: [ponders briefly] Yeah. You bring me a Squealer. And I don't mean Corbi.

    [Colby laughs and grabs Corbi in a groping hug, and Corbi mock-squeals loudly]
