Unexpected and unexpected story

"Invasion of Wall Street" initially attracted me to the male protagonist in the movie poster. He is the second male lead in the American TV series "Prison Break". "Prison Break" was the first American drama I watched, and it was this American drama that sparked my love for American dramas. After a few years, seeing the protagonist of the TV series that I liked in the past again was somewhat touched. Just now that I have a strong love for economics, I made up my mind to watch this movie.

The construction of this story is very simple: Jim, an ordinary policeman, started various investments when his wife Rosie was seriously ill and needed a lot of medical bills, because the medical insurance was unavailable, hoping to make money. But things backfired, and in the end, there was no money but no principal. At this time, the unit had to ask him to resign voluntarily because he had foreign debts. And Rosie didn't want to delay Jim any longer and cut his wrists to commit suicide. At this point, Jim had absolutely nothing, a wife, a house, a job, and no money. So he did what most people would do and started a series of revenge murders. Investors, bankers who control money. As the story goes, most of us must think that Jim has killed so many people that he must end up in jail. But the biggest surprise of this movie is that in the end, Jim didn't go to jail. And as he said at the end: I am a soldier, representing the country and the people, if the country does not deal with these people, he will punish these people one by one.

There are two unexpected and unexpected points: First, the name of the movie: Invasion of Wall Street, probably most of us will think that this must be a financial turmoil, just like the fall of Lehman Brothers, but the film vividly tells the story. We, Jim, have frightened and frightened the people of Wall Street with a series of revenge murders. The second is the ending, which is very surprising. But it seems that the director told us indirectly: Although there are such financiers and bankers in the society who make a lot of profits through various means, in the end it is their ordinary people who are unlucky, and such things will not be left to the financiers in the end. There will be a solution.

Any kind of investment is risky, investment should be cautious. As with all kinds of investments, the winners belong to the expert-level investors and financiers. Most of us invest with the idea of ​​getting rich overnight and falling pie in the sky, and it is destined to be a war of blood and tears.

Throughout the film, the one that struck me was: Jim's wife and colleagues. Jim's wife, Rosie, got a call from the bank and learned that all the money Jim invested was gone and they were broke. When Jim got home, after she talked about it, Jim said he would deal with it. At this time Rosie stroked Jim's face and said, "Because of me, you have gray hair and wrinkles on your face." She was terminally ill, her husband's investment failed and he was penniless. At this time, she was not thinking about her condition and how to solve it. money, but Jim. And Jim's colleagues are willing to reach out to help him when they learn that Jim is in trouble. Especially Jim's boss, each unit has its own system, and employees with debts cannot be allowed to exist in the unit. He had to relieve Jim. Jim was very sad, and his boss was also very helpless. It stands to reason that he should pay Jim a credit card in the end, but he knew that if he gave a credit card, the credit card would be frozen, so he paid in cash to help Jim. Finally, when Jim left, there was such a scene: the boss was helpless and sad, holding his head in his hands. In such a lens, I saw the kindness of human nature. Tenderness in a cold system.

And the tenderness under such a cold system, and an article I read in the past two days. An American elementary school teacher with breast cancer has spent her 17 years of vacation in hospital. If she doesn't go back to school, according to the system, she'll be expelled, and once she loses the job, she loses a source of funding for medical treatment. With a steel-like system on the one hand, and a female teacher who is on the verge of life and death on the other, it is very difficult to make a choice. And in the end there is a way to get the best of both worlds. The teachers in the school actively raised donations, not money but holidays. Such a method that both maintains the system and helps teachers is perfect.
