Dreams are stubborn

In fact, I don't watch many inspirational films. Most of them are about pursuing dreams, and they have experienced all kinds of setbacks. In the end, the protagonist still made a big success, which is exactly the same.
However, although every film about the pursuit of dreams has the same trajectory and the same result, this is the charm of dreams. No matter how repeated the subject matter is, it can still awaken the desire and firmness in people's hearts.
When watching this movie, my favorite is undoubtedly homr. I also like the other three teenagers, especially when homr carried a lot of tools and walked several kilometers to find the launch pad, the three teenagers did not continue to give up, but took over the tools in homr's hands and built together their own rocket launch pad. Perhaps, true friendship is the support of a friend's dream, no matter how ridiculously unrealizable a friend's dream may seem to you, your support will always be one of his motivations.
When I watch this film, I always think of my childhood dream to become a costume designer. As a result, in comparison, what have I paid for my dream? There is nothing, only buried in front of the book and nibbling on high school textbooks, and then admitted to the ideal university, the result? How to learn fashion design if you are not an art student? Now in my sophomore year, I still only draw some crappy costumes in my notebook, and nothing else.
However, when homr started working on rockets at the age of seventeen, it is never too late for a dream to start. There are people who support and ridicule on the path of hmor's dream, but one person's support is enough, isn't it? Even if no one supports it, just show it to them! When these four teenagers' rockets were successfully launched in front of their classmates for the first time, I really felt so happy! It's like slapping the mouths of those who laugh at others!
In addition, there are a few scenes that almost made me cry:
the rocket lift-off in front of my classmates.
Burnout of the rocket observation deck.
Homr's confrontation with his father: "I won't be coming back."
The second day of Homr's presentation, the whole village helped build another rocket launcher part.
etc.
The road to dreams is not always smooth. No one can be successful casually.
no dream, why go far.
It is up to you whether you choose to stay underground forever, or choose your own dreams to fly into the distance.
I don't know how much influence this movie can have on me, and I also know that this movie is not the whole motivation for me to realize my dream, but, I will move towards my dream, and it is not too late.
