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?

Room quotes

  • Jack: When I was four, I didn't even know about the world, and now me and ma are going to live in it forever and ever until we're dead. This is a street in a city in a country called America, and earth. That's a blue and green planet, always spinning, so I don't know why we don't fall off. Then, there's outer space. And nobody knows where's heaven. Ma and I have decided that because we don't know what we like, we get to try everything. There are so many things out here. And sometimes, it's scary, but that's okay, because it's still just you and me.

    Jack: It can't really be Room if door's open.

    Ma: Do you want me to close it?

    Jack: Nah.

    Ma: Jack, can we go?

    Jack: Bye, plant. Bye, chair number one. Bye, chair number two. Bye, table. Bye, wardrobe. Bye, sink. Bye-bye, skylight. Ma, say bye-bye to room.
