October sky

This movie seems to be based on a real story. In the end, Homer was subtitled and later became a training engineer for the space agency. There was no thrilling plot, but I cried three times while watching it. What excites me is the persistent pursuit spirit, and the success of unremitting efforts makes people feel a great relief. It is this relief that makes me unable to contain my tears. I am not a crying person, and I am not prepared for crying at all. This is different from some female audiences who prepare tissues before watching the film: I am sure I can’t cry for a film that makes me ready to cry. . At first, I didn't care about this film. I still traded between it and the football game. I didn't settle down until I saw the rocket launch. But I don't quite understand, I wonder why these kids want to play rockets. This is because there was no complete concept at that time. Later, I saw them conducting countless experiments and prying abandoned railroad tracks for money in order to get a good piece of steel, only to realize that they were not playing around. From this moment on, the significance of the entire film has improved. In terms of details, I feel that the relationship between the characters in this film is very real, and the plot is both dramatic and not exaggerated. The most classic line appeared when Homer found his father in front of the mine before the last rocket launch. Homer told his father that his and his choices were so different not because they were different, but because he was too much like his father. This kind of perseverance and love for what you think. These words represent Homer's maturity and also express the theme of the film. It can be said that it is impossible for the father not to go to the launch site after such a dialogue, because it is not only an affirmation for his son but also for himself. In an unfavorable situation, whether we have the courage to persist in doing what we want to do, I think this is the measure of success or failure of being a human being. The greatness in life is often ordinary. What I want to say is that not everything can be expressed in this way. It can be so clear that they may be covered by the daily trivial dust. However, the spirit will last forever.
