Whale in the lake

Weston 2021-12-23 08:01:28

From a little boy to a real man, the greatest fortune is to be led by men like Uncle Hub and Uncle Garth.

Walter is undoubtedly lucky. In his youth full of adventure and curiosity, the legend of Uncle Hub and Uncle Garth is tantamount to a whale jumping out of a tranquil lake. In the film, the American rural life in the 1960s is just like a peaceful lake, warm and comfortable. The legendary years of the two uncles in the turbulent beacon are just like that whale, and the waves are magnificent.

From World War I to World War II, Uncle Hub has footprints all over the land of North Africa. He galloped freely on the coastline of the earth, and sang indulged in the long yellow sand. Possession and loss of wealth and power. I have met all kinds of people, and I love only one woman for the rest of my life. This is the life of a real man. He walked all over the mountains and rivers, read all the world's warmth and coldness, and still felt soft in his heart. Power, wealth, and beauty are the easiest things to change. Only courage, faith, and love can remain the same.

This is actually a simple but touching story. I am willing to fall into stereotypes and be a simple and upright person for the rest of my life.
