Finished watching it last night. It’s okay, I felt pretty good when I watched it last night, but when I woke up and wrote this this morning, after thinking about it, I still felt that this movie was a little bit worse, and what was wrong, I can’t really say it, I just thought it was a little bit worse. The thing that impresses me is that, after a long, long time, I can also inadvertently think of this movie. (For example, "The Elegance of the Hedgehog", "Millennium Actress", etc., which I like very much, can make me remember after watching it. Of course, it may also be that I lack resonance with this movie.) Also, this movie is in Chinese The title of the film is wrong, it's really bad. (In addition, the male protagonist is similar to Wu Lei in some angles, probably the eye part) The male protagonist is strong, he is suffering from Tourette syndrome (a disease similar to ADHD, it is difficult to focus on one thing, and often unconsciously makes strange noises. call or twitch), choose to challenge it, face it, and even become a teacher (rather than choose to hide at home for the rest of his life because he is afraid of the eyes of those around him); he is also lucky, although he always encounters There are some voices in the society who do not understand or agree with his illness, but his mother loves him very much and understands him to accompany him. One of his childhood principals made the whole school understand his illness, so that he is no longer excluded and strange. Looking at him (it was the principal who made him decide to become a teacher), the principal, teachers and students of the school where he finally worked (of course, the process of finding a school that accepted him was not easy) recognized him, and he met a man who He likes girls who also don't care about his illness. The ending says it's an adaptation of a true story. Anyway, this is a good thing, we can learn more about these diseases, then when we meet people with these diseases on the streets and other places in the future, we may be able to be more tolerant and understand more. A short review mentioned that there are many such movies in the United States featuring people suffering from various diseases, but in China, these people have become invisible people. . . Indeed. I remember a long time ago, when I was probably in junior high school, I once saw a very short documentary about Chinese guide dogs on the computer at home (it seems to be only one episode, and the total duration is only half an hour or an hour) , which mentioned that why China rarely sees blind people, but foreign people with all kinds of strange shapes are running around on the streets. Is it because there are fewer people in China with these diseases? Of course not, but in China, all these people are staying at home. It is also mentioned that the blind roads for the blind in China are also very rough, some half are gone, and many times they are occupied by bicycles, so the blind roads are useless. And guide dogs are not allowed to enter the bus, subway, shopping malls, so the blind They didn't go out either, they couldn't go out without the company of others. I don't know if things have gotten any better after so many years, but I hope that those diseases won't be a hindrance to their efforts to live their lives well and enjoy life, I mean, we, and this society, And the various systems and constructions of this society will not be their hindrance. It's not their fault that they're sick, so they shouldn't pay for it, at least not in full.
