Made this bowl of chicken soup for Uncle Wolf

I originally came to watch this movie for Uncle Wolf, but found that the whole movie was full of chicken soup. To be honest, this chicken soup that perseveres for a dream is a bit corny, but we're willing to do it anyway. On the one hand, everyone is working hard for what they want, and on the other hand, dreaming of this kind of thing is really sacred. In this movie, Uncle Wolf is still Charlie in "Iron Armored Steel Fist". He is both a technical director and a spiritual mentor. He does not have the acting skills of Jean Valjean in "Les Miserables". It seems that this kind of film does not need to contribute any acting skills. The 3 stars of the movie are given to the director who tells the cliché story of pursuing dreams without being so boring, and the remaining 1 star is given to Uncle Wolf's appearance and long legs.

Matti Nykänen: You and I... You and I are like one o'clock and eleven o'clock. You see, we are closer to each other than to others. Winning, losing, all that stuff is for the little people. Men like us, we jump to free our souls. We are the only two jumpers with a chance to make history today. If we do less than our best with the whole world watching, it will kill us inside. For all time.
Eddie Edwards: Good luck, Matti.
