The True Core Mate shattered my stereotypes about robots. Before this, the robot in my eyes was just a machine that could do things, not think, and be completely programmed. Robots are machines, not people. But in this movie, I see the heart of a robot. The protagonist of the play, Frank, is a lonely old man with Alzheimer's disease. In him, I saw the situation of the elderly in contemporary society. They are not lacking in material needs, but suffer from psychological torment. Children run away from home, and my wife dies or leaves. Every day I live alone. Get up alone, eat alone, walk alone, live alone. At first I didn't understand why Frank kept going to the store to steal things, in fact, he was just empty. Stealing is just a spiritual pastime for him. Frank has actually been living in his own world, knowing the emergence of robots. The robot cooks for him, wakes him up, walks with him, and even helps him steal things. Slowly, Frank and the robot became the closest friends and relatives. Only robots and Frank can scout targets, walk together, and steal things together. Only a robot can listen to Frank's voice. When Frank is suspected by the police, the robot asks Frank to format him so that the records of the theft can be deleted, saving Frank from prison. The scene in the whole movie that touched me the most was when Frank pressed the format button and the robot fell into his arms. In that scene, I saw the embrace of two close friends, respectively. It was also at that moment that I felt the sincere and deep emotion between the robot and Frank. At the end of the film, Frank looks at the other old man's robots, thoughtfully, thinking about his robot, his best friend. Although the memory has faded, the emotion is immortal.
