<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >01, kindness is the cure for trauma, love is the best accelerant</h1>
When Monty was half paralyzed by a car accident in his youth, under the care and tireless encouragement of his wife Mary, Monti wrote many popular novels and became a famous writer. However, the weather is unpredictable, Mary died of cancer six years ago, and she lost her love, and Monty lost hope in life. He borrowed wine every day to pour sorrow, gave up on himself, and even committed suicide to end this life. Monti's spiritual pillar collapsed, his hopes dashed, and he lost his faith and desire to survive.
After the collapse of a spiritual pillar, a kind of escapism psychology arises, erecting a thick wall in the heart, refusing to communicate with people, hiding himself in a thick shell he has built, and wrapping himself in armor. In order to protect himself, he refused to be approached by everyone and did not dare to show his true face.
In the small town of Bella, Monti received the kindness and concern of the townspeople, when he first arrived in the town, the residents of the town invited him to attend the memorial service of Tang Kai, a popular basketball fan, and invited him to read the eulogy, at first Monti's heart was a little resistant, but under the enthusiastic infection of the townspeople, he also gradually integrated into them, and after feeling the kindness of the townspeople, his closed heart began to open.
Monty's neighbor Charlotte, along with her three daughters, graciously invited Monty to be a guest, and they spent a wonderful dinner together, which made him feel a long-lost sense of affection and home, and his heart gradually unfolded to others.
But kindness and warmth are the best weapons to break the solid ice together, the best medicine to heal the wounds of the heart, it can soothe a wounded heart, and gradually warm a frozen heart.
Gorky said:
The inherent goodness of man, these things evoke an indestructible hope that a bright, humane life will eventually come to life.
When Monty and the neighbors are socializing, he and Mrs. O'Neill have an affair with each other, and Monty falls asleep in Mrs. O'Neill's beautiful piano song. In his dream he invited Mrs. O'Neill to a drink under the moon. He stood up, danced waltz with Mrs. O'Neill in the beautiful moonlight, and talked intimately.
Love was undoubtedly the catalyst for Monti to ignite his desire for a new life. It was this confession that prompted Monty to eventually sell his copyright and buy the house adjacent to Mrs. O'Neill's family. With the love accelerant, the hero Monti's enthusiasm for life is like the fire of winter, which is getting stronger and stronger, of course, his life will be better.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >02, need is the embodiment of value, can open a closed heart</h1>
The relationship between people is wonderful, high-quality relationships are like a healing field, when people have to be needed, their own value is reflected, and the door of the heart will gradually open.
Mrs. O'Neill's second daughter, Fenigen, was born with curiosity and a rich imagination, and when she learned that Monty was a well-known writer, she took the initiative to come to Monty's house, and her arrival was like a ray of sunshine breaking into Monty's life. The closed door of Monty's heart also opened a gap. Finigan offered to pay Monty 34. Tuition of $18, follow him to learn storytelling.
Although this little money was insignificant to Monty, this feeling of being needed made Monty feel needed. The two people are also teachers and friends, communicating with each other, Monty not only harvested happiness, the 11-year-old girl let Monti gradually find the value of his own existence, remember his strengths.
One day, Finigan relied on his imagination to make up the first story, and Monty was also sincerely happy, he felt that everything he did was valuable, and Finigan was melting the ice in Monty's heart little by little.
Mrs. O'Neill's youngest daughter, Flora, took the initiative to invite Monty to her birthday party, Flora asked Monty if she could tell the story of the elephant, in order to give the lovely Flora a satisfactory gift, Monty began to create again, he put down the wine jug that he never left his hand all day, sat down in front of the long-lost typewriter and began a new creation. When Monty finished the last page of his work, his own life was gradually on track.
Because he was needed, his inner sense of value gradually recovered, Monti's fate was uncertain, his life was bumpy, he had several twists and turns, and finally he was finding his own value, his inner self-confidence and hope for life were ignited again, and he was reborn.
There is a mentally handicapped boy Carl in Bella Village, who feels marginalized without friends, who accompanies him every day with endless loneliness, and who bounces around like a rabbit every day to kill time. In order to help him, the kind Monty took the initiative to call Carl and invited Carl to go to town with him, and Carl felt a sense of need, felt happy, and gradually became normal.
Sometimes people's perception of happiness is to be needed, to be recognized and needed by others, and maybe Monty can't turn Carl into a normal child, but I believe that the feeling of need that Monty brings to Carl is enough to make him a happy child, and that's enough.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >03, when healing others, it is actually a wonderful process of self-healing</h1>
In this film, it is not only Mrs. O'Neill's family's redemption road for Monty, in fact, Mrs. O'Neill came to this town with three daughters to live, but also full of heartache, she has just experienced a failed marriage, after the marriage disintegrated, not only to face their own inner pain, but also to face the education problems of the three daughters, the three daughters do not understand the marriage of their parents.
However, after they met Monty, they healed the wounds in Monty's heart in the gradual relationship, and the pain in their hearts miraculously healed themselves.
Life is not an easy thing for Mrs. O'Neill. And Monty appeared in their lives at the right time, and with The help of Monty, the second daughter, Fenigan, made up a story based on her imagination, and her potential was discovered, which was a great breakthrough for an 11-year-old child, and for a little girl, this was another form of redemption.
The eldest daughter, Flora, does not understand why her parents divorced, while the younger daughter, Fenigen, wants her parents to remarry, and they long for their father's love. The appearance of Monti more or less compensated for this defect, and both of them took some comfort from Monty, who lived nearby, and used him as a substitute for a father.
At Flora's birthday party, Monty fires a gun to make the gibberish clown dare not insult Mrs. O'Neill anymore, and apologizes to the frightened Fenigan, at which point Monty invisibly assumes the role of father. Monty's gift to Flora - Tony's story makes Flora feel a strong sense of fatherly love.
Admittedly, while Munty redeemed the little boy Carl, he also felt the joy of helping others, and the ice in his heart was slowly melting.
With the help of Mrs. O'Neill's family, Monti finally found the confidence and inspiration to write, and found the meaning of life, at the same time, Monti also helped Mrs. O'Neill's family out of the shadow of their parents' divorce.
Everything is moving in a good direction, even if it is still dark, but the dawn will eventually come, and at the same time as redeeming others, it is also a wonderful self-redemption.
