stick to the heart

Rainmaker, why rainmaker? That's what the title of this film gave me. As the film progresses, a sentence from the protagonist Rudy Baylor reflects the true meaning of the film's title. He said: "I'm just another lawyer. Just another shark in the dirty water (I'm just another lawyer. Just another shark in the dirty water)." Muddy water naturally refers to the internal atmosphere of the lawyer industry -------Lawyers are eager for quick success, unscrupulous for social status and fame, they will defend evil criminals for high lawyer fees, they will ignore the pain of witnesses in court in order to win the defense, They will also bribe judges for their own fame...anything goes. It was in this internal climate that Rudy stepped into the legal profession. When faced with being the same as the seasoned lawyer defending insurance companies in the film or insisting on making a choice that seeks justice for others, he did not let us down. He is the "rain maker" who sticks to the bottom line and puts himself His actions turned into clean raindrops to wash away the filth in the legal profession.

One scene in the film that left a deep impression on me, Rudy said to the jury, "I want you to make the decision by your hearts (I want you to make the decision by your hearts), is in the final stages of the attorney's presentation to the jury in the insurance company's claim. I want you to make decisions based on your heart).” I think, sticking to your heart is Rudy’s inner philosophy. This idea supported him, and he never gave up when faced with the temptation of huge money from the insurance company or when he was almost powerless to fight back because of his lack of experience and repeated mistakes by the opposing lawyer. Because he clearly knows that he cannot give up the boy who died of leukemia because of the temptation of profit or the obstacle of difficulties, his family, and many people who have the same experience to seek justice, his conscience does not allow him to do so Do. He insisted and tried his best to compete with the huge team of lawyers on the insurance company's side. First, he used the wiretap incident to make fun of the other party, and then he took the risk to find the employee who had been fired by the insurance company to testify for himself. "In the process, he continued to grow, becoming more courageous, mature and calm. The judge and jury were finally moved by him and gave the case the fairest verdict. I think that although he did not get a huge wealth in the end, what he saw, heard, learned, learned and felt in the process of sticking to his heart must be worth more than the wealth that can be measured by numbers. many.

Sticking to your heart seems to be mentioned very frequently in life, but ask yourself how many people can do it? Living in society, it is inevitable to come into contact with the dark side of society, just like being wrapped in a tank of turbid sewage. If you can't stick to your heart, you may lose your original pure color after struggling in the sewage. Only by sticking to the original intention can we finally break out of the shackles of sewage and find a clean river where we can live. In this way, when looking back on a hundred years of life, there will be no indelible regrets.
