First of all, make no mistake, it's "The Amazing Dad," not The Great Dad, two movies, two very different styles.
Released in June this year, the film grossed 149 million at the box office, and although it is inferior to the multi-billion screen blockbusters, it is a masterpiece that can bring you a double buff of warmth and strength.
[1] No one will pay more for you except them
Let's talk about something other than the movie, of course, it's also related to this movie.
I once watched a short video to the effect of interviewing several parents and asking them a question: "What would you do if your child got seriously ill?" ”
------------------------------------
As long as we can cure him, we will find a way to find a way to save him.
----------------- Selling houses, selling cars, and selling lives.
I don't dare to think about this, but if it really happens, then I can do nothing.
In addition to the difference in wording, several parents are actually expressing the same content, which is also a licking feeling that most of us often overlook and think is taken for granted.
Xiao Daming was such a father.
He didn't want his son, Sholdong, to be like his mother, who would rather take the risk of blindness or even total paralysis from multiple sclerosis diseases in order to run a marathon.
Therefore, he tried everything to prevent Erdong from participating in marathon training, and he was well-intentioned and insisted that he practice the piano with his eyes closed, and even let him walk blind with his eyes closed...
As Erton said: In your eyes, I have long been blind.
Here, right and wrong cannot be evaluated.
Xiao Daming just hoped that if one day Erdong really couldn't see, or if he wasn't there, at least he could support himself by the piano.
That's why he was willing to spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy a piano, and he was reluctant to spend twenty dollars to wash a taxi.
[ii] Give everything he wants, but it may not be what he wants
Director Zhou Qingyuan perfectly embeds the father-son relationship into the struggle and confrontation between ideals and reality, and Erdong's persistence makes all of Xiao Daming's efforts worthless.
This was a very cruel thing, but it was something that Xiao Daming had to accept.
Take the example of a good friend's housework, it's really too appropriate.
That was a former leader and good friend of mine.
On the eve of his daughter's declaration of college entrance examination volunteering, I had to show up and tell my daughter how hard it is to advertise and how difficult the future is.
But I'm obviously very happy.
Only because my daughter does not want to choose a mechanical and electrical major, but wants to enter the advertising industry that I am engaged in, and does not want to inherit the agricultural machinery market he has worked hard to build.
As he wished, in front of his daughter, I said what he wanted to hear the most. But during our time alone, I spoke my true mind.
"Leave what you can leave for her, to support her choice, at least not against it."
"Then who am I working so hard for?"
"From your point of view, it's for her, but from her point of view, you're controlling her."
"I just don't want her to suffer too much in the future, is that wrong?"
"That's right. But if she really did what you said, wouldn't she be bitter? ”
When I said this, I basically didn't have a brain, which hurt people.
We are not the owners of His life, but our companions.
The fragment of Erdong escaping from the house and going barefoot, with his feet blurred with blood and flesh, is probably the place that can bring the greatest impact to all parents.
We think we are the owners of our children, but in fact they only come to this world through us, but they are not coming for us, they are going to different places and have different lives.
When he understood this truth, Xiao Daming truly woke up to what his role, or the role of all parents, really was.
After experiencing a "silent relationship" with Erdon, he transformed from a controller to a companion.
He began practicing marathons, and he was going to run the entire distance with Erdon as a runner.
When the last red tow rope, as Xiao Daming fell exhaustedly, the moment he released his hand, he finally saw what Erdong longed for the most:
There is no light in my eyes, but there is still a road under my feet. (He Yajun, the first person to run blindly on the whole horse)
Blind to participate, it is Sholdong who wins himself;
Learning to let go, it was Xiao Daming who won himself.
A repressive father-son relationship eventually turns into a passionate mutual fulfillment, and there is probably no better Happy Ending than this.
Also, why do I like to watch inspirational movies?
Because I'm just an ordinary person, I guess there's a good chance you're the same.
Unsatisfactory things are often eight or nine, and I often encourage myself so that I can walk more bravely in the mud everywhere. Encourage with the King.
