God built me to the last

After watching the whole film, the most impressive thing is the phrase "God built me ​​to the last". It is precisely because of those painful and arduous processes that the final excitement is so sighing and moving.
The biggest theme, other than baseball, is obviously the paradox of racism. When the line "Starting today, you are the hero of all black children" appeared in the film, I suddenly felt this heavy feeling. The film shows the embodiment of this kind of racial discrimination in life in many details, which not only outlines the general background, but also sets off the milestone importance of the Boolean District. Because of one person, a transition from 400 to 399, a new era will begin in American baseball. One Jack created the future of all black baseball fans.
There are many exciting processes in the film, but the most moving is this transformation: when white children begin to imitate a black man's blows, when white audiences begin to cheer for a black man, when those who once co-signed a book The teammates who wanted to reject his arrival finally extended their hands to him, accepted and welcomed his existence; when Pei Wei said to everyone in front of all the people in his hometown, on the vast baseball field, "I I want them to know my attitude," and everything finally began to shift, a small misalignment in the gears of history, and everything in the future would be completely different.
America, the baseball capital, finally opened up to all his baseball-loving kids, regardless of color or race.
That's the beauty of baseball, as long as we're still running in this fan-shaped land, as long as we remember the smell of freshly cut Bermuda grass, sweat and passion, competition and jokes, all of it is enough to forget this The insignificant details outside the sport. Blacks, whites, any race, any skin color, we come together because of the pursuit of a little white ball, under the same sky, under the same belief, chasing the same goal and fulfilling the same dream - What could be more comforting than this?
The reason why Jack is great and the reason why the No. 42 jersey is called a legend, in addition to the significance of this milestone, also stems from the personality charm that belongs to Jack alone. Just as from the past to the present, the black leaders who have been recorded in history are admirable, it is those strong beliefs and indomitable charisma that make them create a different and historical era. Jack said, if you give me a jersey and a back number, I will give you courage. A courage to not fight back. There is a saying that is well said, what happens on the court is resolved on the court. The grievances on the court are resolved on the court. With his footwork, his hitting, and his unchanging and deep passion for baseball, he made everyone on the same field feel his dedication. "Just let him out" We do everything the baseball way. Eventually he did, and when he smiled and asked the white pitcher "what are you afraid of?" everyone knew he had that courage. The person he was afraid of was no longer him, and he finally dared to face others, face himself, and face the changes that his existence might bring.
The gears of history have been irrevocably re-turned, a Civil War on a baseball field, and they will see the end of a revolution. This time, instead of running out of ammunition and food, it was a head-to-head victory and defeat. Jack used his own actions to convince all the enemies that they lost.
"I love the sport. I love baseball. I've dedicated my life to it. There's this unfairness to the sport I love. And I ignore it. But when the time comes...I can't do that anymore. "Yeah, because I love it, so I hope that I can use all my strength to make it better and more complete, so I don't want to see any flaws and regrets in my favorite sport. The time spent on the baseball field, the sound of the ball hitting the glove, the touch of the foot on the base pad, the sweat on the edge of the hat, and the star dust on the corner of the shirt, are all unforgettable and unbearable.
Bull said that because of Jack's presence, he fell in love with baseball again. Today, all players in the major leagues will still wear the No. 42 jersey to commemorate this great player, and all those who love baseball also want to pay tribute to him in various forms-because of your existence, because of With your perseverance, the baseball we love has finally become complete, and it is completely worthy of our dedication to life.
