It describes war, race, sex, faith, belief, money, compassion, nation, survival, life, awakening, cycle, distress, aggression, perseverance, abandonment; it speaks of displacement, deprivation; it speaks of a red child's dress; it speaks of the bottom line; it speaks of homeland, flesh and spirit.

The Wonders of Benjamin Button
The Wonders of Benjamin Button is an American film directed by David Finch and starring Brad Pitt. The film tells the strange story of a person, born as an old man, who lives younger and younger decades later, and finally becomes a baby and dies in infancy.

The film won the 81st Academy Awards for Best Art Direction, Best Makeup, best visual effects and other awards. Brad Pitt was also nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor.
A strange beginning, doomed to a strange end. A magical story, composing an extraordinary life, a dead home for the elderly, like a womb dead silence, but it has become the spiritual home of Benjamin Patton, interpreting the calmness and poetry of life and death. A surging youthful lust, a period of crew life for the world, wrote a natural and calm absurd story, leaving behind an irreparable regret in life.
Time can't stop the love of two people who grow backwards. For some peculiar reason, the old man and the young woman met one morning, and it was fate, like the unlucky egg who had been struck seven times, and their love met and fell in love one day after their respective journeys. So they fell in love at the perfect moment of their lives. Then, when he became the baby who could only learn to speak, the old woman still embraced him, he didn't remember anything, but so what, at this time love does not need words, just a look, a gentle touch is enough.
No matter how a person's life is, even if your life is bizarre and different to go from old to young, it is a lifetime, the only short journey of a person in this world. A person's life can be so colorful, you can stick to one place, you can walk through all corners, and time is fair to everyone, she withholds you in that place, and in this place you give not excessive compensation, and what you will do in this short journey depends on your choice. And no matter how you express your beginning and end, you will never bring it with you, and you will not bring it with you.
People are lonely animals, they do not live in groups, they will only meet occasionally with their own life trajectory, beautiful fate, short gathering, should make people feel satisfied, even if your life line is in the opposite direction, the convergence is only in the moment, that moment is enough for the human body to taste, let people cherish, because time is not irreversible.
Truman's World
Directed by Peter Will, the black comedy Truman's World shows us how an ordinary little man, unknowingly, is made into a famous TV star, but is completely deprived of his freedom, privacy, and even dignity, and becomes a victim of the mass entertainment industry. The film reflects the hopes and anxieties of humanity, but also attracts attention for touching on today's most sensitive social issues.
"Truman's World" is a different and creative film, the content is thought-provoking, touching, and at the same time there is a humor that makes people laugh. Comedy King Kim Carey has a complex personality in the innocence of the film's performance, he puts aside all constraints, he exudes touching emotions under the usual comedy performance, although his performance has not yet won the favor of the Oscar judges, he has at least conquered most of the ordinary audience.
Some people say that life is like a play, but there is no rehearsal, which may be another inspiration for me by the film. People live in this world play many different roles, children, students, classmates, friends, lovers, wives, husbands, parents, etc., each role needs different content to fill, it is in this kind of play, people can really grasp themselves.
"Life is like a play, drama is like life", the philosopher sighed, but the actors on the stage of life, we, do not always have a kind of acting consciousness? Or is it under God's deception and arrangement, doing meaningless things selflessly? Happiness is not enough to make us love the world; setbacks are not enough to make us abandon the world. God is like that genius director, he has a good degree, he knows when to give us a blow, when to burn us a warm stove, He makes us keep hope in pain, endure pain in hope, because pain creates waves in the plot, but also creates ratings, and hope is the appearance fee that is rewarded to us, so that we will not stop halfway.
To quote a line from the film: "We are tired of the actor's artificial performances and false feelings." We were tired of setting off fireworks and fancy stunts. Although the world in which he lived was in some ways false, Truman himself was absolutely true... It's not Shakespeare's masterpiece, but, it's real, it's life itself. ”
The Pianist
Directed by Roman Polanski, The Pianist tells the story of a talented Polish-Jewish pianist who goes into hiding during World War II to avoid falling into the clutches of the Nazis. He suffered from hunger and humiliation in Warsaw's Jewish Quarter, and was under threat of death all day long. He escaped carpet searches and hid in the ruins of the city. Fortunately, his musical talent touched a German officer, and under the protection of the officer, the pianist finally survived the end of the war and ushered in the dawn of freedom.
The film's portrayal of the protagonist's heart and the encounter in survival make it not only a typical representative of the entire Jewish group in the film, but also different from their empty hearts, the film never forgets to show the protagonist's inner thoughts about music, art, and piano, even in the room that cannot make a sound, as long as there is a piano, even if it is only hanging on it, the soul can get a moment of quiet and sublimation. Even in the face of the German officer, his heart was full of fear, hunger and cold made his hands stiff, he could still play his inner voice, which was full of inner loneliness, full of fear, and at the same time full of his deep love for art and hope for the future that he had not completely given up.
For such a film, we have to first talk about his history, in the absence of a thick historical knowledge base, watching this movie is like casually opening a thick literary masterpiece, although seeing his gorgeous rhetoric, and the thrilling storyline, but losing his long cultural heritage that cannot be described in any language. This is not just a film about a person, but a great epic poem about a country, a nation, a piece of history, and touching people's hearts.
Music is his passion, life is his masterpiece, this film comes from a true story, the basic meaning of life is to live, to live strongly. The film's exploration of war is very profound, in the war, you have to repeatedly lower your survival bottom line, no artistic pursuit, no loyal love, no brotherly friendship, and even the desire for family affection, are so far away, some, just do everything possible, survive!
The Pianist at Sea
"The Pianist of the Sea", an Italian film directed by the famous Italian director Giuseppe Tornatore, this film is one of his "trilogies". The film was adapted from Alexandra Ballico's 1900: Monologues. The soundtrack of the film is written by the master Yanio Morricone, who captures the hearts of audiences and fans with his affectionate and elegant style.
The film uses two lines, one line is Max's own memories, and the other line is that Max is going to the boat to save people. Therefore, the sense of entry of this film is not as strong as that of Hollywood, but with some traces of European films. Because there are many parts of the whole film that Max explains in the form of narration, it is more like the audience is listening to a person telling a story, rather than experiencing everything with the protagonist. Donatore's narrative of these two lines is very clear and fluid.
The theme of the film contains a person's growth, including love, friendship, loneliness and wandering, including fate, containing a strong sense of belonging, containing human purity, including life outlook, world outlook, including philosophy.
In the face of life and aesthetics, most of us prefer life, because we think that the continuation of life is the continuation of aesthetics. But aesthetics itself is a general discipline, no one will care about whether our lives have aesthetic meaning in the process of life, and the people who make the ultimate meaning may not understand what meaning is, but people who do not deliberately create and understand their own mysteries seem to be found only in movies.
"The Pianist of the Sea" is about the piano, the sea, and life, 1900 can choose their own life, and we carry the most, he can never wear a mask, and we can't, live for ourselves, we are difficult. The beginning of life means the end, the end of life means the beginning, so people live a lifetime without the end, there is no beginning, the key is to live wonderfully.
"Untouchable"
Directed by director Olivier Nakas, "Out of Reach" was a 2011 French film that surpassed 20 million viewers, surpassing Titanic to become the highest-grossing film in French history. The film is based on a true story. After a skydiving accident, Philip, a wealthy aristocrat, was paralyzed in a wheelchair and unable to take care of himself, so he called in a young black man, Diss, to help the family. This is a young man from the suburbs who has just come out of prison, and simply put, this is the most suitable candidate for the job. The two worlds collided and merged, and an incredible, wonderful friendship was born. It's a unique relationship that collides with many sparks.
Philippe, a paralyzed aristocratic rich man in the film, and Delis, a "suburban youth" who has just been released from prison, are victims of this deformed society. If the courses of life do not intersect, perhaps they will not be able to have a sound tomorrow. The emotional progression paves the way for the uneventful plot of the entire film, and "Untouchable" only shows the memory fragments in the book with pictures. The friendship between Philip and Delis is the main line, Philip and the penpal, and Delis and his mother are the side line, which together constitute the full emotions of the whole film. The little bits and pieces of life reflect the true waves of the heart, many clever puns, the jokes of the current politics, so that the French people can't help but be funny; and the dialogue between the two friends in the middle of the night, Delis's distant look at the cleaner's mother after work, etc., have become the "tears" that touch the audience.
Drees to Philip, like a messenger of happiness, from the beginning, he did not treat Philip as a disabled person, he gave him the treatment of ordinary people, he did not pretend to pity the eyes, nor did he force empathy, he always wanted to say and sing when he wanted to, always funny and humorous gags, always grinned with big mouths and big white teeth and smiled happily, especially when watching opera, he smiled almost no image. It seems that in Dreys's concept, everything can be taken to make a splash, whether it is a genius or a villain, his optimistic humor adds a different color to Philip's gray life. Most importantly, Drees knew what Philip needed, and he helped him open a window into his future life.
The film seems to make fun of the so-called upper culture, but in fact, it is not to deny culture, more importantly, to present it from the perspective of Driss, an attitude that can be lifted lightly, not blindly following the elite culture, enjoying and looking at culture in a simple, natural attitude. Revealing the most essential pleasures of life, such pleasures, such pleasures, will not be enjoyed because there is no money, nor will it be lost because of inability to act. There is a kind of happiness, perhaps the joy of life, that we share, regardless of class, regardless of poverty, whether healthy or not.
For the respect and understanding of life, for the wounded who are hurt to the deepest, perhaps too many people around them give pity, comfort, and think that they can deeply understand the pain of the wounded. However, often the comfort you give, or pity, or charity, or dedication, will only make the wounded want to flee more and hurt more. Because you and he are not in the same equal position, what you often lack most in your communication with him is the word respect, and if you do not understand each other, it is naturally impossible to talk about the heart-to-heart communication. Class inequality is not terrible, and the most distant distance is always a mental obstacle. There is always a world in everyone's soul that is difficult to be easily touched, and only when encountering each other who believe in each other and sincerely express each other can they arouse strong resonance and release the induction of the heart.
"Success in Man"
Released in 2009 and directed by Clint Eastwood, it is based on the story of then-South African President Nelson Mandela and national rugby team captain Francois Pinar, who worked together to bring apart South Africa, which had just emerged from apartheid and was facing division, during the 1995 Rugby World Cup in South Africa.
The film is about Mandela' successful presidential campaign after years in prison, when South Africa was chosen to host the 1995 Rugby World Cup and decided to support South Africa's rugby team, the white Springboks. Springboks have been shut out of international competitions because of South Africa's apartheid system, and most blacks have always regarded Springbok as a symbol of exclusion, but when the Springboks won the New Zealand rugby team in extra time to win the World Cup, the gap between blacks and whites in the country disappeared. Francis Pirna was the president of the rugby team at the time and formed a deep friendship with Mandela during the World Cup.
The poem given to Mandela, watching the movie and reading this poem again, touched the heart.
Unconquerable
By covering my late nights,
I saw darkness like a deep grave.
Thank god almighty,
Give me an invincible soul.
Even if adversity is like hell,
Nor have I ever retreated from pleading,
Even if the rod of fate is drunk,
I will also bleed and not bow my head.
This earthly world of anger and tears,
Horror ghosts sneak out,
But in the face of the threat of time,
I didn't flinch at all.
Regardless of whether the case file is full of punishment,
Or how narrow the front door is,
I am the master of my destiny,
I am the commander of my soul.
There are nine times out of ten things that are not satisfactory in life, everyone will encounter painful and unbearable things, and the difference between great people and mortals lies in the attitude towards these things. Faced with an enemy who had robbed him of thirty years of his life's freedom, he chose love and forgiveness and did everything in his power to help South Africa eliminate the centuries-old hatred and revenge.
In fact, everyone can control their own destiny, be the commander of their own soul, as long as you have a tolerant heart, a persistent belief, and strive for the ideal in their hearts for life, such a person, no matter what difficulties they encounter, can overcome, will not shrink back, and will succeed. The plot is in the people, and the success is also in the people.
"Call Me Number One"
Based on the true story of Brad Cohen, the film "Call Me Number One" tells the story of a boy with Tourette's disease who strives to achieve his dream of becoming a teacher and overcomes his illness.
In the film, Cohen suffers from congenital Tourette's disease, a severe spasmodic disease that causes him to twist his neck uncontrollably and make strange noises. And this strange behavior made him not understood by the people around him since he was a child, the teachers often criticized him in school, the classmates were even more sneering at him, and even his father was extremely disappointed in him. Only his mother has always been his solid arm, and his mother's persistence and encouragement have allowed him to move forward with difficulty in a normal life. Yet in the face of this world that could not understand him, Cohen had been struggling in a whirlpool of pain. Until a school-wide assembly, the principal skillfully let everyone know the real situation of Cohen in front of everyone, and gave him a firm dream of becoming a teacher who cares for students. Even though this illness made Cohen suspicious and frustrated on the road to seeking the dream of a teacher, he always insisted on his dream, in order to find a school that was willing to accept him, not to abandon his dreams, not to give up his faith, and to work silently. And his once tortuous life path began to slowly improve under his insistence.
It's a rarely good movie, and his kindness and gratitude let him know that even if he is flawed, he will not give up, because there is too much love and support. He doesn't want others to be hurt because he's disturbed, and he doesn't want to hurt himself. He was very strong and brave, and many interviews failed, and finally his alma mater gave him the opportunity to become a strange teacher loved by students.
Although it is a film about disabled people, it does not have depressing scenes, dark tones, and is rendered with the heavy sound of the cello. The story is funny and witty, the protagonist always grins and shows American humor, who says that such a cruel topic cannot be talked about in the laughter? This is precisely in line with the film's positive and optimistic attitude towards life. Cohen is one of the best and most successful of these symptoms, and there are certainly many more of them. For these people, we should have more understanding and less rejection and disgust.
Each of us is born flawed, just different in severity, and this is where we are often different from each other, this film tells us that I am born to be useful, everyone is different, but we can find what suits us and do it best.
Confidence in life is another inspiration that the film wants to give us, no matter what you do, don't be afraid of failure, don't be afraid of failure, often failure is not that you are not strong enough, but others do not have the insight to find your shining point, and confidence is to support you to find your own Bole reassurance pill.
Bucket List
The Bucket List is an American film made by director Rob Lane and released in 2007. The film tells the story of how two patients with terminal cancer face the "death penalty" that cancer brings to them, and how they spend the rest of their lives in abundance and joy.
The "Bucket List" begins with the spectacular snow scene of the Himalayas, which seems to correspond to the phrase "close your eyes, but open the window of your heart"; and two people with terminal illness become patients as a coincidence and opportunity; then Morgan Freeman recalls that in the past, he originally wanted to teach history and asked to complete an assignment in class, detailing what to do in this life, which naturally led to the list of wishes And Freeman learns that he has not lived long to throw away the note, and Jack discovers that it is a turning point to start a "creative" and "bold" plan - to complete the contents of the list.
In the whole film, it still gives people two feelings, sadness and joy, but this is a sense of joy mixed with a sense of sublime and a sense of faith, in the form of "ridiculous" (because of the contrast between the specific behavior made by the protagonist in the film and reality), feeling the content and purpose of the beauty of life, although time is fleeting, it is ultimately beautiful, like people in the photo, that kind of confidence, temperament and wisdom, beautiful and moving.
Death is always an inexhaustible topic for movies, but in life, for the elderly may think more, young people really do not have the heart to think about these "impractical" problems. The only explanation, I think Zhou Guoping said very well: we live casually, without much effort to think deeply about some of the things around us, such as philosophy. Death is also part of the philosophy of life, and the film quotes Montaigne's famous saying that living is for death. In fact, the true meaning may be interpreted as life is only one life and one death, to live meaningfully, to die worthwhile. Because life is not equal to breathing, life is activity. Since it is an activity, it should not simply be like breathing. This value, to put it mildly, is to do what you think is right. For example, "Freeman", who wants to be a professor of history, but can only become a mechanic, is an eternal regret, but the completion of the bucket list more or less makes up for it. Such a life may be satisfactory to oneself.
Everyone can make a "bucket list" for themselves, perhaps more appropriately, it can be called a "life photo", because in our lives, we do not face death all the time, we live in the present, in reality rather than in movies. To put it bluntly, for people who still have ideals and passions, planning their career and life is the most practical action, recording life with images and words, discovering life with eyes and hearts, and creating life with hands and steps. In the end, your "life photo" will become a lifetime Chinese chapter.
《Happiness Terminal》
The Terminal is a 2004 film directed by Stephen Spielberg and starring Tom Hanks and Catherine Zeta-Jones. The film tells the story of the protagonist's coup d'état in his hometown on the way to the United States, the overthrow of the government, the fact that the documents he holds are not recognized by the U.S. immigration authorities, the refusal to enter the country but cannot return home, and the forced stay at JFK International Airport.
In the film, Victor Navorski (Tom Hanks) comes to New York alone to fulfill his father's last wish before his death, but when he arrives at the airport, he is suddenly told that there has been a coup d'état in his country, the original government has been overthrown, the country does not exist, and he has become a stateless person, unable to obtain a visa to enter the United States territory. But in order to fulfill his promise to his father, he had to wait in the condensed world of the airport, a long wait of 9 months, the airport official Frank tried everything to drive him away, afraid that he would sabotage his political achievements, and Nawalski persevered, tried to stay, and was loved by the flight attendant Emilia (Catherine Zeta-Jones). With everyone's support and help, Navorski finally broke through the layers of obstacles to go to New York to fulfill his father's last wish and embarked on the return journey with great emotion.
I was touched by Victor's persistence and waiting, and this feeling happened in this station. There are many such stations in life, but I don't think anyone can look at their own hearts and know what they are waiting for in the process of staying in them.
Throughout the process of watching this movie, a feeling of happiness suddenly arises, perhaps this is why this movie is called "Happiness Terminal"? Spielberg shows happiness and at the same time interprets happiness. When your efforts are rewarded, when your friends are sincere with each other, when so many people are enthusiastically supporting you, yes, that is happiness! It is not in how rich real life is, but in how calm the mind is ~ happiness is a feeling, an attitude, and its root lies in itself.
In fact, sometimes simple and silly men can sometimes be very attractive. If luck is really bad, it seems good to be a stupid hat who firmly believes in happiness.
Inspirational movies are actually not limited to this, for example, some people love literary and art films, some people love war films, they can get inspiration from them, I hope that everyone will leave a message to share the inspirational movie in their hearts.
