Today is International Nurses Day, nurses are often described as "angels in white", after experiencing the ravages of the epidemic, we have more respect for the profession of nurses. Our stereotype will always associate the image of nurses with gentle women in white clothes, but in fact, with the evolution of social division of labor, more and more male nurses have appeared.

Classic film, even if you haven't seen this movie, you must have heard the theme song of the movie. Love in the fires of war, life and death afflictions and the spirit of sacrifice of determination. All war themes contain anti-war themes, and this film is not only rebellious, but also an American patriotic education film, which makes people feel excited after watching it.

Ben Stiller's representative comedy, with the protagonist's encounters and depression along the way, creates a sense of "schadenfreude" for the audience. People who are accustomed to his comedic style will find laughter constant, and audiences who are not used to it may also find it boring and rambunctious. But "unlucky eggs" and "gas bags" have become his labels. For people who have proposed marriage and have met their father-in-law, there may be a lot of resonance.
A male nurse wants to propose to his girlfriend who has been in love for many years, but he must first pass the pass of his father-in-law, the girlfriend's sister is about to hold a wedding, and the male nurse plans to take this opportunity to get his father-in-law, but unexpectedly things are not as simple as he thinks.
"Nurse Betty" [Beauty]
Director: Neil Labout

The title of the film is "Nurse Betty", but Betty is not actually a nurse, but a small-town restaurant waiter with a husband full of bad habits.

Once, Betty's husband was killed in a drug trade, Betty decided to start a new life, driving alone to Los Angeles, hoping to meet the role of the doctor in the soap opera, unexpectedly, she not only succeeded in chasing the stars, but was favored by the producers and played a nurse role in the play. But at the same time, the drugs hidden by her husband in her car also attracted drug dealers to her.
It's a comedy, where real-life and situations in a TV series are reversed and intersected, forming dramatic conflicts and black humor. The point is that although the film is a comedy, the actors are very big names, playing the drug lord Morgan Freeman and Betty is Renee Zellweger, and the film also shows their hidden comedic talent.

Another Spanish movie, the protagonist is still a male nurse, a not very happy revenge story, a bit of Chinese martial arts "when is the unjust retribution", Spanish movies have always won with constant reversals, but the pace is slower, slightly delayed, and the ending is thought-provoking.

They act as field nurses, saving lives with their own weak strength, while Japanese soldiers will only point their guns at their weak and innocent people...

The interchangeable configuration of the living space, the hazy and clean tone of the film, the whole film has a kind of unhurried literary tone.
"Nurse In Charge" (TV series)
The first quarter began in 2009 and ended in the seventh quarter of 2015. The heroine Jackie is a bohemian persona, acting arbitrarily, sneering at doctors who do not take their correct advice, not letting people be ignored, forging organ donation cards for patients, taking drugs... Compared with ordinary warm medical dramas full of human brilliance, this drama is permeated with the atmosphere of black erosion, although it is an American comedy, it has a British drama cool feeling.
In order to create Jackie's uninhibited image, Eddie Fak, who won the Golden Globe and Emmy Awards for "The Sopranos", was specially invited to star, and she also vividly portrayed Jackie's maverick and informal. Previously, some media called it a female version of "Dr. House", but there is still something unique about modern medical treatment from a female perspective. There is a saying that "internal medicine looks at House, surgery looks at Grey, nursing looks at Jackie", if you want to understand the development and knowledge of the nursing industry, it is enough to see this one.
