Get things done, tell the story well

The movie made this night easy.

The story of the hero can also be less "thrilling", and the pride of the plain is the pride with confidence.

Sully put it on for a long time, but she was persuaded to quit because of "talking about human nature". After reading it, she had to say: ?.

Sully gets things done, the directors, writers and actors tell the story well.

There is no slogan, no attempt to test human nature, no intense emotional expression, no so-called "big" scene, and the story is told step by step without any confusion.

While the event was a miracle, the miracle also began with a seemingly ordinary event. Sully is a hero and an ordinary person. Although she has 42 years of experience in flying, when she encounters the failure of both sides of the engine at low altitude, everyone's first reaction is to have a blank brain and panic. The plane was forced to land for 208 seconds, and in some videos, whoever quarreled with whom would crash and die. Except for the anti-collision posture and praying with the index, who was in a noisy mood. The cutest is one old, two young and three men. In the end, the handsome young man called his father. He didn't cry loudly for the rest of his life. There was only happiness and novelty. This guy's mentality is also really good, although few people can do it. But I think that for some people who have been in a state of long-term depression (watching a movie), it is a stroke of God. It turns out that it can be done like this, and it is quite healing. The whole rescue is very calm, and there are very few people shouting, so many times it is worth noting those intense scenes and blunt emotional push.

I feel moved in many places in the dullness:

When Sully learned about the 155 people, none of them smiled with relief (this would have to be put on a domestic film, and I would have to cover my face and cry);

At first, the flight attendant with a stern face injured his leg, but he still guarded the damaged back door to evacuate;

The captain of the first ship who came to the rescue was calm and quick throughout the rescue process. After the ship stopped, he whispered: Hold on (I can't understand English), baby;

The man in white shirt who wanted to swim to the river bank by himself, when he was rescued aboard the boat, the crew covered him with a blanket and put on his hat, as expected, Nobody will die today;

Rescued passengers were disembarked from the boat, and police smoothed out a blanket that had been draped over a man but had been blown up by the wind.

Too many details like this make this movie even better.

Professionals only need to do things well, film production only needs to tell the story well, life is plain and ordinary, and there is no need for so many gimmicks.
