restrained and distressed

The stories told in the room are heartrending, stories that seem so far away are close, and are being reported in China as well. The little boy's acting skills exploded. At one time, he felt that Xiao Lizi would be in danger if he was nominated. The most important thing was that he always thought he was a girl at the beginning. At first, I thought that the film would focus on the story of the mother and son being imprisoned. The film is more about the story after that, describing what happened in the process of how the little boy faced the unrecognized world and how to integrate into the society. After watching this movie, I found that the cancer of straight men in China is really rampant. Some say that the heroine is cheap and some say that the heroine likes kidnappers. I really can't complain. The room also counts as a feminist movie, what's wrong with seeking your own rights? Shouldn't there be more care and love for the victims?

  • Ma: [about the mouse] He's on the other side of this wall.

    Jack: What other side?

    Ma: Jack, there's two sides to everything.

    Jack: Not on an octagon.

    Ma: Yeah, but...

    Jack: [Interrupts] An octagon has eight sides

    Ma: But a wall, okay, a wall's like this, see? And we're on the inside and mouse is on the outside.

    Jack: In outer space?

    Ma: No, in the world. It's much closer than outer space.

    Jack: I can't see the outside-side.

    Ma: Listen, I know that I told you something else before, but you were much younger. I didn't think that you could understand, but now you're so old, you're so smart. I know that you can get this. Where do you think that old Nick gets our food?

    Jack: From TV by magic!
