I heard that it was a film that took 12 years to make, from the boy's 5-year-old to his 18-year-old. Many people praised it as a real life epic.
But for a non-literary and vulgar woman like me,
The only interesting point in the movie is watching the boy and his sister go from cute little dolls to awkward teenagers,
When I got to high school, I suddenly became handsome again.
As a layman, I like movies that make me think hard: "What the hell is going on here?", like:
Or movies that make me wow: "That's fine!", for example:
Like this, the years are like water, nothing really happened movies I appreciate the incompetence:
The mother married and left, divorced and married, (she is the only motivated person in the play who uses learning to change her destiny, which is a rare real number);
My father can be an actuary, and Etahn Hawke is as good as ever;
The elder sister is the director's daughter and has no sense of existence;
The younger brother is the protagonist. He grew up playing games from one house to another. The difference is the game partner and the game console;
The story, which takes place in Texas, is about a boy growing up, and as a mother who is also raising a child in America, I don’t feel the slightest resonance.
There are generally two classifications of children in American movies, and this is the case for this pair of siblings:
One is to show all kinds of cows since childhood, grades A+, sports into the school team, popular, regardless of parents, will enter a good university smoothly and easily in the future;
One is that I have been unable to do anything since I was a child, my grades are sparse, I don’t work hard, I am not good at sports, I am bullied at school, I am a little withdrawn, and my parents don’t care. When I go to high school, I explore the meaning of life, and I have the pursuit of art and talent. Qian went to the university for a drinking party and then went to find himself.
In a certain year, all the Olympic math teams in the United States were Chinese, and then they won the gold medal. A very classic media comment was:
"This proves that our Chinese kids are just as good as theirs."
It seems that in raising children, racial differences far outweigh geographical differences.
